We decided to visit Shotley on a chilly December day specifically to have lunch at The Bristol Arms. We were greeted warmly as always and the food was delicious. It's definitely worth a visit, no matter what the weather is like.

This is a wonderful local pub in Shotley Gate. The staff is friendly, there's a good selection of beers, and it's dog-friendly as well. The views are fantastic. Price per person: £1–10. Service: 5 stars. Atmosphere: 5 stars. Parking options: Free parking lot and free street parking.

Great pub, ably run by three delightful young women and a chef and others in the back room. Good friendly local community. Darts and shanty singing. Dogs well looked after and coddled. Views across the Stour to Parkeston Quay and the sunset. Vegetarian options: 4 veggie options! All v tasty.. Price per person: £10–20 Food: 4 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5 Ver carta

Good location for popping in after various walks around the Shotley peninsula. It 's on the waterfront with nice views, although there is a (minor) road in between. Easy to park nearby. Nice selection of good, standard pub food. Feels nice and 'normal '. I 'd agree with the sticky table comment mentioned by someone else, but would visit again. Good value.

Really good quality food in a nice local pub, fish meat and veggie options for all. Dog friendly and our lab was welcomed with treats, very friendly atmosphere and great service, highly recommended, reasonably priced too, parking nearby and only a short 5-10 minute walk from the Harwich foot ferry. Great views across the estuary. Price per person: £10–20 Food: 5

I am all for nice quirky little pubs, and supporting independent local businesses. But I also expect to get something for my money. Charging 15£ for fish and chips that come from Tesco frozen section, and 5.50 for a tiny ‘chocolate brownie’ just doesn’t cut it. Add the not-so-clean 80’s bathroom. Staff is great and very polite but that’s about the only good thing about the place. And the location. Price per person: £10–20 Ver carta
