AMAZING!!! As far as I remember this place has won pub food…read moreof the year ever year since Ive lived in the area. Super tasty quality food, I noticed that on the menu it even tells you which farm the meat came from, or where the ice cream was made etc. The Greek Lamb and the Gammon are both brilliant. The portions are huge and I'm always left with enough food for another meal but save room for the Holly Bush sundae because you wont ever have a such a selection of tasty locally made ice cream :) The prices are great too, last time I went it was around 30quid for the 2 of us.

Alas, I discovered this place after the dogs were long gone, but it's still a bloody lovely pub…read more Walking in from a snowstorm outside to a blazing log fire is always a good thing, glancing to your right and eyeing the lineup of 6 ales adds to the magic. It's all set in a very tastefully restored half timber affair, with the grandfather clock out back still on time since who knows when. I had the fish stew based on a recommendation from James and Simon, a couple of regular patrons who can be found propping up the bar and in a few of South Cheshire's other CAMRA-approved establishments, and indeed, it was delicious. So full marks to The Black Lion - I shall be back soon!

Young Adam behind the bar really knows his ales (6 on at any one time, 3 Weetwoods and other local guests) and samples come readily :o) Nice open fire in front bar, some clientelle can be a bit wooden at times and the place sometimes does not quite have the atmosphere it used to have when it was a rough and ready kind of place. We like the front table for people watching across the road at the Cat and Nakatcha, so stay off it! Bought Dick Strawbridge a pint at the bar the other day and met the guy who runs this website, lovely folks! Fave beer here is Weetwood Cheshire Cat..

We stayed in the dog friendly seperate section so if you aren't so keen on dogs, there is a beautiful seperated restaurant next door. The food is immense, very original menu with locally sourced food and a twist on some pub classics. I would recommend the samosa starter and chicken pate.

The Boot & Shoe Is one of the Best Pubs In Nantwich…read more Great for REAL Ale, which they have at least 4 Real Ales on EVERY week. Great for Families too. Great for Smokers who are well catered for in the Beer Garden Area. Staff are very friendly, they put on a great New Years Eve party they also put on a Great 80's Live Band Each year that gets well packed & IS an amazing night out. Also if you like football then get down here early as the pub gets packed for Footy Nights & days. Love this pub although its at the other end of the town where I live I never get disappointed going here, with great real ALE, & friendly staff with great food what more do you want?
