Great little pub, dog friendly in the bar. Worth a visit.

My wife and have been eating here for a number years and have never had a bad or even an ok meal. The food has always been of the highest standard. The welcome from James and his family has been fantastic and the atmosphere is that of a traditional English pub of the past.The Shoulder of Mutton would always be my first choice to take anyone to, to sample first class cuisine in such a welcoming environment. There no one thing on the menu I could recommend, having tried them all they are all as excellent as each other.

We have eaten at the Shoulder of Mutton a number of times over the last 6-8 months We always receive a warm welcome and excellent food and service. My husband is always impressed with the cask ale and I enjoy the great selection of wine. What more could anyone ask for!

Me and Craig back on the Foodie Tour last night, with a welcome return visit to Shoulder of Mutton Pub, Middleton Tys Both had the Scotch Egg to start. Delicious ? The Tomato Relish and Onion Rings really set this dish off to perfection ? I had the Grilled Salmon with seasonal veggies - excellent, very enjoyable ? Craig had Pheasant breast with Dauphinois potato, seasonal veg and a gorgeous Port jus - I had a little taste of his meal and it was fantastic! Highly recommend this place. Beautiful food, nice service and cosy atmosphere ❤️

Highly recommend The Shoulder of Mutton. We managed to book a table at last minute and when we arrived we could see reservations on all other tables. We soon found out why - the food was fantastic. We had fish and chips and the steak and ale pie (well worth the wait for the freshly cooked pie). This is a lovely cosy pub. The staff were polite and friendly. They made us feel very welcome. We liked it so much we booked for the next night. This time we had the steak burger and braised ox cheek. Again both delicious meals. Just wish we lived locally so we could visit again.
