| I am a fan of the Benbow. Wide range of beers and pleasant atmosphere make it a great place for a quiet drink. I believe they operate an over 30's policy which accounts for the older clientele. edp - 4 Jan 2008 13:03 |
| Pub serves 6 casks and 3 ciders. Only open in the evenings. A pleasant, relaxed pub with a small, but attractive beer garden. Background 70s music. An all round decent place. SilkTork - 19 Nov 2007 19:20 |
| Nice enough boozer in a quiet side street, just off the hustle and bustle of the main square. Slightly disappointing pub interior reminiscent of an 80's makeover. Lose the carpets and past their best "soft" bench seats and replace with wood/flagstones etc and it would be transformed ( no doubt such things cost a lot of beer sales though). However, top marks for excellent range of real ales, bottled beers, ciders,etc. I hadn't heared of any of them so plumped for Cambrian Gold, which was one of the most more-ish ales I have tasted for a long time-very nice. And served by a very lovely barmaid!! There is also a nice little beer garden outside for those addicted to the weed:- that's tobacco you silly things, nothing more exotic!!! Despite comments on interior (picky me) I would definitely revisit and would almost certainly have ended up being installed for the afternoon, sampling all on offer, but my short visit didn't allow.It appears to champion everything I hold dear about real pubs so do visit and support them when in Shrewsbury. tarkatherotter - 16 Sep 2007 11:32 |
