It's a little tricky to get to, narrow country roads, etc, but we'll worth it. If you wanting to eat I would advise booking and this place gets busy from the second it opens.

A good selection of real ale, sets off the old beams and friendly land lady. Moving with pint in had to the large garden overlooking the south downs way (see photos) we soon had steaming masses of food arriving. My lamb with apricots and apples was sumptuous. The liver and bacon my sister had was adequate, but the fish pie was a real winner, salmon, prawns, white fish in a creamy mash. Mmmmm. By the piles of benches stacked against a barn it looks like it gets very busy in the summertime - and according to some locals it "isn't as good as it was before it was discovered" but all in all a great lunch and think it is a great find. Heartily recommend, hope some other Qypers can discover it too.

Yesterday I had made such an arrangement and arrived in the car park at 1120. Not a soul to be seen and the door was locked.

Driven in to the car park and they said this had happened to them some 6 weeks ago. I decided that, as no one had turned up, nothing had been done, including anything any prepping, the food would not be good and decided to visit another pub. Several months ago I had a call from some other friends whom I was meeting there and they had just arrived to be told there was no food, so we went elsewhere.

Recently they had a darts match in memory of my cousin who died some years ago at an early age. There is usually a good turn out for such events.

They recently went through a heavy makeover of the restaurant and now the look really matches the food. They've kept the comforting pub bar and quiet corners but also installed a family friendly restaurant area that opens onto an impressive beer garden with a two story Wendy house! But to return to the more important aspects of having a restaurant, the food is really good. The service is fast and every time i've gone they've been incredibly friendly. I've even blundered into a quiz night by total chance which was really well run (though i might be saying that as i won a bottle of wine!). Friendly, affordable, good quality, i forgot to mention the beer but there are some fine ales and bitters as well as the standard fair on tap. Good for families but also a really nice place to just sit and take your ease for a while. a real country retreat of a pub.

They have a green and relaxing beer garden with a cool looking hut for kids (no more salt and vinegar crisps and cola by a fireplace! ), and even their own veggie patch where they grow a few herbs for the kitchen. I wish I lived closer!

Although we were staying in another pub in the adjacent village of Meonstoke, we had heard so many good things about the Shoe Inn, we couldn't resist pulling back on our boots and walking through the rain for dinner. After the obligatory pint of real ale to celebrate the end of our walk, we perused the menu on the blackboard. There was almost too much to chose from as I was ravenous and everything took my fancy. We were brought warm homemade bread to start, then I went for the goats cheese en croute served with beetroot, red onion and avocado. Next came pork belly with the most divine cracking (I know, but I earned it!!), rich dauphiniose potatoes, cabbage and a cider jus - delish. After a 30 minute respite, I decided I could fit in a portion of homemade treacle tart with ice cream - probably a mistake in hindsight as I could hardly move afterwards, but it was tasty!! A cheeky bottle of red helped wash all this down. The pub itself was really busy for a rainy Thursday night - it obviously has a lot of loyal customers. The staff were all really young but provided a high level of service. In the summer, the garden that backs on to a babbling brook would be the perfect place to enjoy a drink as the sun goes down. We even got to play a couple of games of dominoes while we waited for our meals. It doesn't get much better than this!

After considerable thought was given for a lunchtime pub by our cousins who live in…read morethe area, we made a short trip to The Shoe, and it proved to be a great destination in this beautiful Hampshire village! After placing our food orders, we walked across the road to their riverside beer garden. It provided an idyllic setting with ample room between the garden tables. A couple of decent-sized bowls of peanuts and a small bowl of olives provided munchies with our beverages while we chatted and waited for our lunches to arrive. A Wadworth pub, there are six of their beers on hand pump, plus a guest tap. Obviously, the pub's focus is their food. Freshly baked breads and house-made pickles are two of items that complement the great food here. Local products are sourced as much as possible, a nice touch. The small beer battered haddock (£8.95) was beautifully cooked with a crispy shell, and its mushy peas were delicious. The fresh crab and avocado starters (£7.95) were thoroughly enjoyed by three in our party, and the pub's careful attention to detail was obvious in the presentation of this dish. My own ploughman's platter (£7.50) was excellent, the generous slice of ham and aged cheddar accompanied by a fresh piece of baguette with veggies and grapes, house pickles and a red tomato chutney, and crisps - no issues with any of this plate's offerings. And yes, the house sticky toffee ice cream and brownie we all shared for dessert with beautifully brewed Americano coffees were stellar! Attentive and timely service, a beautiful setting, and decent prices (about £80 for drinks and lunch for six) make The Shoe a spot I'd return to, either for another great lunch or to explore their menu further at dinner. Highly recommended.
