About This Pub

Ah, the Shoulder of Mutton – it's one of those pubs that just warms your cockles, you know? From what I've gathered from the reviews, it's got this lovely welcoming vibe where the staff are always up for a chat and make everything feel effortless, whether you're just popping in for a beer in the garden or tucking into some delicious homemade Bangladeshi dishes that folks rave about. The owner sounds like a real gem, putting their all into making sure everything's spot on, and it's brilliant to hear about the community events like the wheel gatherings that bring people together. On the flip side, though, their website's a bit of a letdown with access problems, which might put you off if you're trying to plan ahead, and the hours can seem a bit muddled, so you'd want to confirm before you go. Overall, with a solid 4.2 rating from plenty of happy visitors, it's a great spot for a laid-back evening, but it might not be the place if you're after a more polished or extensive menu. I'd say it's worth a visit if you're in the area – just go with an open mind and enjoy the simple pleasures!

Cons
  • Their website seems a bit unreliable, with access issues that might make it tricky to check menus or hours before heading over.

  • As a village pub, the selection might feel a bit limited if you're after something more fancy or a wider range of options.

If you haven't been to the Shoulder of Mutton in Grandborough yet you're missing out! Delicious Bangladeshi food, nothing standard here all homemade and delicious, an owner who really cares and entertains through your meal, i can't recommend this place enough, we will be back when next in the area!
