Autumn calls for proper comfort food. 🥧🍂

The kind of food that’s hearty, homemade and exactly what you fancy when the temperature starts to drop.

With more than 30 years in the kitchen, James keeps things simple – good ingredients, proper cooking and plenty of care in every plate that leaves the kitchen.

No fuss. Just good, homemade pub food.

There's always a warm welcome waiting behind the bar. 🍻

Whether it's your favourite pint, a glass of w**e with dinner or a coffee after a countryside walk, we're here to make you feel at home.

For us, great hospitality is about more than what's in the glass—it's about good conversation, friendly faces and creating a place you'll want to come back to.

We'll see you at the bar.

What makes a great village pub? 🍻

For us, it's never been just about what's on the menu.

It's about being welcomed by name.

Taking the time to have a chat.

Serving homemade food with care.

Supporting our local community.

And creating somewhere people genuinely look forward to coming back to.

That's what we're building here at The Saracen's Head, and we're proud to be part of the Shirley community.

Let us reintroduce ourselves… 👋

We’re Jamie & James, the guys behind The Saracen’s Head.

When we took on the pub, we had one simple ambition — to create the kind of village pub we’d want to visit ourselves.

A warm welcome, homemade food, friendly faces and a proper local atmosphere. 🍻

We’ve been busy behind the scenes making improvements, listening to our customers and putting our own stamp on the pub — and we’re really proud of how far we’ve come.

We’re still only at the beginning, with plenty more to come, and we’d love for you to be part of the journey.

Come and say hello! ❤️

What makes a great fish & chips? 🐟🍟

For us, it's simple.

Fresh, flaky haddock.

Light, crispy b**r batter.

Golden chips.

And every plate cooked fresh to order.

It's a classic for a reason, and one of the dishes our customers come back for time and time again.

If you're planning your next visit, this might just be the perfect choice.
