Quinno _ left this review about The Shurlock Inn
Formerly known as the White Hart, this pub has now been revamped after being brought by a locals consortium after a period of closure. The inside is a lot lighter and is set up mainly for dining. Two or three ales are still available with three on a weekend – Binghams and W&E both feature regularly - which are kept fairly well. The new incarnation is proving successful, well done to all those who kept this open and have given it a new lease of life. The garden especially looks lovely now.

A pretty good find - had been trying to get in here for a while but was constantly thwarted by the irregular opening hours; on more than one occasion it was shut despite the opening times posted outside begging to differ!. Inside is a pub that feels fairly unspoiled by recent history - all dark wood and sooty smells, presumably from the real fire (which has a large propeller above it!). Three ales on (Brakspears plus A.N.Other plus a good guest beer of St Austell's Tinners). Quality OK but could be a bit better.
