What User doesn't like about shakespeare arms:
A lovely interior and great beer list and typical dishes. It might be useful to sort out where the noisy drinkers are and eat in a different area. Not cheap but grub is oak. View all feedback. What User likes about shakespeare arms:

Shakes has fairly average food and décor/culture. You can count on getting consistently decent food. No concerns about eating here. Decent bar selection.

The restaurant offers a cozy interior, a good selection of beers, and a menu with typical dishes. The service was friendly and the food satisfying, with highlights like the chicken Yorkie and veggie burger. Patrons appreciated the live music, but some mentioned the need for renovations to update the atmosphere. Despite occasional issues with slow service and dark interior, the overall experience was positive. The establishment provides a great place for a meal, drinks, or casual hangouts, making it a popular choice for locals and visitors alike.
