🍻 WE’RE IN! 🍻

We are absolutely delighted to share some very special news… The Malt Shovel Inn has been included in the CAMRA Good B**r Guide 2027! 🎉🍺

And this one feels extra special because 2027 marks our first year in the Guide! 🥹❤️

As a small, family-run country pub, being recognised in the Good B**r Guide is something we’re incredibly proud of. From the very beginning, we’ve always wanted The Malt Shovel to be a place where people can enjoy a great pint, good food and a genuinely warm welcome — whether you’re a regular, visiting for the first time, staying with us, or simply passing through. 🏡🍻

A huge thank you to all of our wonderful customers, our loyal regulars and everyone who has supported us along the way. And of course, a massive thank you to our amazing team who work so hard behind the scenes every day. ❤️

This is our first year in the Guide, and we couldn’t be prouder to see The Malt Shovel Inn recognised alongside so many fantastic pubs across the UK.

So, if you haven’t visited us yet… what are you waiting for?

🍺 Good b**r
🍽️ Good food
❤️ Good company
🏡 A proper country pub welcome

Here’s to our first year in the CAMRA Good B**r Guide 2027 — and hopefully the first of many! 🥂🍻

Thank you for helping make The Malt Shovel Inn what it is.

Julie, Scott & the team ❤️
