Lancaster Pubs : Boot & Shoe Hotel pub in Lancaster
'
The Clientele are - a few are in their 30's, a couple of lad's in their 20's and then mainly older people! No Trouble here though. Would be good if they attracted a better mix! You see the odd loud mouth, but they don't tend to stay very long!
The beer garden is nice on summer days and they have a covered smoking area outside and heaters (although never seen them on!)
Food is OK, it was nicer a few months ago and now I rarely eat there. Sometimes you order something and it comes minus items from the description. It is not worth the prices they charge, presentation is lacking and you can't even get a sandwich of an evening or at weekends. A lot of it is frozen produce not homemade. A salad is a basic one, no fancy lettuce here, just a bit of iceberg, sliced tomato, onion, pepper and cucumber. Maybe a different take on the classics might help although they seem to sell alot of food on some days.
I actually left the pub to eat at the one on greaves and there was no comparison in the standard, I would only eat here if I was starving!
The price of a coke is 1.10 for half a pint, I think that it is rather expensive, especially when it is flat. They could do with introducing a larger range of non-alcoholic drinks, different cordials, rather than the lime, black and orange. It is a bit of a poor do if your driving! Large range of ales, I think that attracts the older clientele!
Staff are OK, Managers appear friendly enough. Not doing a bad job, they could just do with trying that bit harder.'
