A place for families, friends and travellers to relax, eat well and enjoy proper country‑pub hospitality. Welcome to The Shoulder of Mutton
Set in the picturesque village of Middleton Tyas, The Shoulder of Mutton is a traditional, family‑owned country pub with more than 400 years of history. Sitting at the heart of the village, just moments from Scotch Corner, the A1 and the A66, we’re perfectly placed for locals, travellers and those exploring the beautiful Yorkshire countryside. For centuries, the pub has been a true village gathering place — a home for stories, celebrations, laughter and community life. Middleton Tyas is one of the most charming corners of the region, and like every proper Yorkshire village, it deserves a pub full of heritage, warmth and character. Step inside and you’ll find a friendly welcome, cosy corners and the relaxed comfort of a real country inn. We pride ourselves on excellent food, genuine hospitality and a setting that suits every occasion — from an intimate lunch to a relaxed dinner or a catch‑up with friends and family. Whether you’re travelling north or south on the A1, heading west on the A66, or simply enjoying one of the many public footpaths and bridleways around the village, we’re the perfect place to pause, unwind and refuel. Drop in for a quiet drink, a hearty meal or a well‑earned rest after a long walk — you’ll always find a warm welcome waiting.
