New Inn - South Derbyshire

This restaurant is one of our favorites to dine at. We usually go in the early evening as it tends to get crowded. It is recommended to make a reservation, and the parking lot can be a bit tight. We arrived a little early at 5pm for our 5:30pm reservation and were seated at our requested table right on time. Our server, Evie, was very polite and reminded us that we couldn't order until 5:30pm. We ordered cheesy chicken from the lite bites menu after jokingly pestering another staff member, Jeremy, to take our order. The food arrived quickly and was delicious. The atmosphere was welcoming, with many people sitting outside enjoying the view of the canal and passing barges. The hardworking kitchen and bar staff make this restaurant a must-visit in the area. Overall, we highly recommend the New Inn Shardlow for both its food and staff.

After a delightful day out, we were in search of a pub that served meals and were happy to come across The New Inn in Shardlow. We arrived before food service began at 5.30pm, so we enjoyed a drink and perused the specials board in the meantime. We were impressed by the friendly and enthusiastic young staff - there were no unhappy or disinterested faces to be found here! Our meals arrived promptly and were all incredibly tasty. Despite it being early on a Tuesday evening, every table in the restaurant was occupied. This is a testament to the quality of the food and service, and we will definitely be returning. Although we would appreciate more vegetarian/vegan options on the menu, the vegetarian lasagne was excellent and left us with no complaints.

What a wonderful find in the beautiful village of Shardlow. I was lucky enough to try one of Faye’s lasagna and it really didn’t disappoint. Smaller plates are available and are perfect . All the bar staff are really friendly and the locals are just lovely too. Dogs are welcome and there’s plenty of outdoor seating. I’ll be back for more Lasagna

What a wonderful village pub, Great value home cooked food, Wonderful choice of drinks and the best staff in the area…. The owners are infectious Thankyou soo much Faye and Martin

So disappointed wanted a nice dinner but that’s not what we got! What we got was a landlady who was snappy and seemed drunk
