What Z0siaB doesn't like about The Shakespeare:
The staff are very friendly and the pub mixes traditional with modern and the menu is varied. The cheeseburgers were huge and tasty but a touch dry. The fish and chips however, were disappointing the breading was soggy and greasy not at all a pleasant dining experience. View all feedback.
