Absolutely great pub in Ironbridge, on the main drag, with good food, live music and a great…read moreatmosphere. We freuquently use this place for work outings because we can all afford to eat out and have a great night at the same time. I hear that it is closed for refurbishment in early 2009 but will be well worth a look when it re-opens. Food here has always been tasty, the do two menus, one of bar food etc and a more expensive one in the restaurant. Chillis, curries, lasagnes etc all taste home cooked rather than microwaved. Some nights live music or comedy makes for a lively, noisy crowd atmosphere.

I love the Stiperstones Inn - if only because it's an important part of my childhood…read more I went here again recently with a group of friends who were all amazed by how cheap it was to stay in such a quaint old inn with proper wobbly floors and an open fireplace. We sat in the bar drying out after a long walk, drinking real ales in our slippers - perfect! The food is good - not gastro pub levels, but reasonable quality and a great price. The pies and puddings are just what you need after a day spent walking amongst the Stiperstones hills. It's in beautiful surroundings, with the Devil's Chair nearby, a prehistoric stone circle, lots of puffball mushrooms and plenty of unspoilt countryside.

The Stiperstones is part of the Shropshire Hills area of outstanding natural beauty and the scenery is breathtaking. A great place to walk energetically. Beats a gymn any day. The pub is quaint and unspoiled, with a real fire in the lounge. The food is very reasonably priced, most meals being under £7, and is basic but acceptable at the price. I had a Sunday lunch, the beef was rare and thickly sliced but the roast potatoes were disappointing as the looked as if they had been in a fryer rather than an oven and the gravy was not up to much either, but the local paper gave the other meals and the pub in general a rave review last weekend. The staff are friendly, they will aslo collect you from a bus if necessary and you can also stay here. They have real ale, Shropshire Lass was excellent according to my husband and two drinks two Sunday roasts and a coffe was !3.90. The views are to die for, so give this little known area a try.

Sure, there are pubs that look more like a grandpa's living room, but the Pheasant Inn is still a nice place to have a drink with your mates, have a nice game of pool, sit outside in the sun - or watch some live sports! The guy behind the bar is quite cute (have a look, girls!!!) and very tolerant towards dog owners! Today's World Cup match Germany : Portugal (4:0) won't be the last that I've watched there... :-D

The real highlight is the medieval wall painting which was discovered accidentally during construction in 1987. Very rad!! See the photos I posted.

Quick glance: + good selection of food with wide price range…read more+ delicious and beautifully presented pub food + Sunday roast available + Aspall cider on tap! - no on site parking available A friend from Shropshire picked this spot in Shrewsbury when we were on our way home from Wales back to Greater London. The pub is spacious and has a good selection of drinks (including Aspall cider on tap!). The location is slightly off the high street so it may be missed, but it is worth a visit. There is some on-street parking and various pay-and-display car parks nearby. Sunday roast is available, as well as steak from the grill which tends to be quite expensive (e.g. £17 for 8oz rib-eye, or £23 8oz fillet as at Sep 2010). Portion sizes are big and filling, and the food comes beautifully presented. For those on a budget or requiring a light snacks, those are also available as "All Day Items" ranging from £5-8 per dish. Ingredients are locally sourced where available, and the waitress who serves us was bubbly and helpful. Overall, this is a nice spot for lunch and drinks although not the cheapest pub food around, approaching close to London prices.

Gord and I had a beer at the Horse & Jockey, the oldest pub in Wrexham, on Thursday…read more It dates back to the 16th century. It is highly distinctive as the only surviving thatched-roof property in Wrexham. When we walked by it, we had to stop in! Happily it looks like it hasn't changed much over the years. Apparently it is the combination of 3 cottages that have been combined over the years. It was definitely the most authentic pub we've been in so far and Rachel, the barkeep, was fun and friendly. Cheers!

We went here on our trip a couple years ago and we loved it. My family friends are from Wrexham so…read morethe night we arrived, after they had gotten us some fish and chips, we went out here for some drinks. Since it was our first time in the UK it was a great start to our trip. The outside of the building is exactly what an American hopes to visit in the UK. It is in an old building with a thatched roof and it looks like it has been there for an eternity. The drink selection was great and by drinks I of course mean beer and cider because what else would you get from a pub? We sat in the back corner and were able to have a good time before we were on to the next pub. A couple days later before we went on a drive through the Welsh countryside we stopped in here to get some breakfast. We got a traditional English breakfast and for those that have not been luck enough to try it, it is amazing. It is more food than you could possibly eat for only a couple pounds. Hash browns, bakes beans, toast, eggs, sausage, tomatoes, mushrooms, etc.. Since we were with our local friends the owner came and spoke with us. He was very nice and we loved it there. We will be returning during our next trip to Wales.

They have a superb range of real ales. They also have a good selection of vegetarian meals on menu. Prices are a little steep but you get what you pay for and you certainly won't leave hungry. The pub itself is very large but comfortable and well looked after.The Britannia is undoubtedly worth a visit. Also has a beer garden so you can take in the views around you while you enjoy your drink or meal.

Seeing that the Lowfield Inn (and restaurant) is in walking distance to where my grandfather lives…read morewe end up here at least once on all of our trips. And really this is the only restaurant in the area. We usually stop in at the bar and grab a pint while the staff gets a big enough table to handle the family. Service here has always been outstanding. Even with newer, untrained staff they seem to have things under control. Prices are a bit higher than most of my cheap (Scottish) family members would like to pay, but everyone always leaves full and happy. Portions are very large so if you want to save room for dessert (trust me save room) split some apps or skip them all together. Pretty sure this place gets packed on weekends as the bar scene attracts lots of locals.

The pub is a decent size and also has a large beer garden which will be nice if we get a summer? There is a huge range of wines available on the chalk board, and a good choice of ales and lagers. The menu was good even though it was a little pricey for the area but when we had the food it was certainly worth it! I had homemade burger with chips which was delicious and my other half had a pork dinner which was also melt in the mouth tasty! I would recommend highly and will be visiting again soon.

Great for Smokers who are well catered for in the Beer Garden Area.

Love this pub although its at the other end of the town where I live I never get disappointed going here, with great real ALE, & friendly staff with great food what more do you want?
