My wife and I and a friend stayed at the Old Post Office, a pleasant pub, once a coaching inn, in November 2009, having travelled on the train from London to explore Shrewsbury. We were very pleased to find its location ideal, central to all main points of interest, and only about ten minutes walk from the station. We found... more

None of these problems were huge, and were we paying less for the stay we wouldn't have had an issue with the place. However, for £60 a night (ensuite) I feel that these things ARE problems: - Access to accommodation through the beer garden (ie past punters drinking their pints) - Staff were just the girls who worked behind the... more

Stayed just one night mid week this November. Would have liked to have stayed a second night as entertainment was on! Unfortunately had to travel back home. Food excellent, we had evening meal here too. Very reasonable priced and lots of it. Very friendly staff, nothing too much trouble. The Old Post Office is very characteristic and has much history.... more

We travelled to Shrewsbury on the train and after a very pleasant journey we found that a few minutes walk got us to The Old Post Office. When we arrived there was a slight mix up with our credit card but the manager promised to sort it out. He then showed us to our rooms which were spotlessly clean and... more

When we started our holidays at Shrewsbury, we wanted a convenient place to get to and to explore from, since we are older and were travelling by bus and train. The Old Post Office is situated in an excellent position, close to the rail staion, and in the midst of the beauty of the old town. Excellent food, good clean... more

Confirming the view of some of the other visitors - yes, the land lady is sadly lacking in the customer relations department!! My friend and I paid up front and I enquired as to the time of breakfast being served the following morning. The barman told us between 9 and 10. The following morning around 9.30 we tried to gain... more
