owner/operator: Mitchells & Butlers / Miller & Carter (Mitchells & Butlers)
A large roadside restaurant. Large car park.
It was rebuilt as a large open plan bar and restaurant in the 1980s after a fire destroyed the original building.
The old Shepherd and Dog was renamed Miller & Carter Steakhouse in March 2016, erasing over 165 years of pub history. The restaurant still retains a small bar and drinking area where it isn't necessary to eat.
