| We had a truly first class meal on this occasion, and the ale was a fine pint too. The menu seemed quite adventurous, with plenty of excellent seafood to complement the steaks and grills. The decor does perhaps still resemble the home of a comfortably retired, rather house proud couple, but don't let that put you off the first class dining and fine ales. The food is competitively priced and very good value for the high quality. My last review maybe over emphasised the interior decoration, which is only a matter of taste anyway. If you're hungry at an odd time on the nearby A5, it serves right through. 8/10 eddybeer - 13 Feb 2015 20:50 |
| The ale was good, and the food up to standard. However, as the previous post suggests, there's not much in the way of traditional (or any other kind of really) pub atmosphere. Most of the daytime custom seemed to be groups of retired people, out for a reliable if perhaps predictable meal. I expect the evening's similar. It never ceases to amaze me how little imagination some managements have, when you look at places' potential, given location, age of building and so on. eddybeer - 12 Jul 2013 22:52 |
| Very much a food pub (really a restaurant these days) with a large car park and the inside almost entirely given over to restaurant style tables and seating. Does have real ale though: 3 Theakston ales (but no local ales) on when I was there. Located just off the A5, between Nesscliffe and Oswestry, and also by the side of the Montgomery Canal. IMO if you're on the canal (boating, walking, fishing, whatever) you're probably better off trying the Navvy Inn at Maesbury Marsh (not open on Mondays though). At the Navvy they manage to achieve good food with being a good pub, and with local ales. dpaajones - 25 Aug 2009 19:35 |
