My friend &I stumbled on this central pub whilst shopping and saw the board outside advertising lunchtime specials. The pub interior is very nice and the atmosphere pleasant. The pub was busy and we selected what we wanted quiet quickly because we anticipated a bit of a wait. The Hobgoblin Ale very very good, perfect temperature too. We chose a... More

A simple small hotel in the centre of Shrewsbury. Parking not easy but surmountable. Comfortable and warm. We stayed the night of a band playing in the bar, which made for a lively evening and could be a problem for the 9 o'clock-to-bed brigade! The shower tap in Room 6 needs to be fixed, and the cleaner who sprayed furinture... More

They catered for all awkward customers including myself who came it with outrageous demands. Great staff, make sure to tip Dean and Katie. They put up with a lot. Plenty of good local ales and a good mix of cocktails. More of a drinking mans pub but easy to blend in with the crowd.

Called in on a Sunday afternoon at 2pm - board outside said 'we serve food everyday 12-9pm'. Ordered a drink and sat down to look at the menu - decided to have sandwiches and went to the bar to order. I was told by an uninterested barmaid to order at the food till around the corner. At the food till... More

This bed and breakfast above a very pleasant pub in the centre of Shrewsbury is what you call value for money. Our room was actually beautiful. Loads of character and charm. Decent size. Very clean. Large screen TV. Tea and coffee making facilities. Toiletries in the bathroom. Bed linen and towels smelt so fresh like they had literally just been... More

This was a pub dinner we went for, mid week, we did not experience the B&B. I have previously visited this pub months ago and had an excellent meal and excellent service, the food was lovely, not expensive, there were people asking how our meal was and overall a great experience. Well....this visit was truly awful. Me and my partner... More
