| Didn't find this place to be anything special. Not much choice of ale, just big breweries. Quality was alright though. jarofporter - 11 Oct 2011 14:46 |
| I can sympathise with comments from those that just wanted a quick drink and not being able to sit down at the tables reserved for diners. However it was handy for us as we had called in to have some real ale with a meal, so it was nice to be able to do that without any hassle. I had a Jennings Cumberland Ale while my wife had a zest fruty-beer called Sunbeam recommended to her by the bar lady as they didn't have any Belgium fruit beers. The food was generous and well cooked and the staff very friendly. DiscerningDave - 7 Aug 2011 20:14 |
| Revisited this pub which used to be regular for me, what's happened ? Dirt and dust everywhere, tired looking interior and the staff must be trained in serving avoidance, this particular night being a Tuesday where I felt I had to email or text my request through ! Great location, used to be great atmosphere, never been so glad to have bad leg to keep me away ! richardhead - 11 Jul 2011 16:09 |
| We visited Shrewsbury recently and stopped at this pub for a quick drink. Unfortunately half of the tables had little signs on them stating "For diners only", but as no-one was eating and all the tables were free we felt justified in sitting at one of them. After being moved once when 2 people turned up to eat and listening to comments from the management such as "the tables are clearly marked" we left for a friendlier pub. In conclusion this pub has pretensions of being a restaurant so if you just want a drink you may have to stand in the middle of the pub surrounded by empty tables for diners. bewdley - 27 Jun 2011 21:53 |
| If only we had had weather similar to that in the picture above. On the Saturday night we visited, it was cold and foggy. This is a Marstons pub, but has a good range of their beers - Ringwood Old Thumper, Banks's Bitter, Wychwood The Dog's Bollocks, Jennings Sneck Lifter, Dark Mild and Cumberland Ale and Mansfield Old Baily. Thatchers Heritage cider is also available and there seemed a wide and varied spirit selection. The single bar has strange red lighting. A band was setting up and seemed to have attracted an 'interesting' clientele that looked like a throwback to a bygone age. Pictures of old Shrewsbury adorn the walls. Not at all bad for a Marstons pub. blue_scrumpy - 25 Nov 2010 20:38 |
