The Crown Inn - Shropshire

Parked nearby as the closure of the town centre to traffic meant there was a big queue at English bridge. Never really noticed The Crown pub, it's been refurbished. Pleasantly surprised inside and there was a nice little pave d garden at the rear. Pint of London Pride and an open prawn sandwich and chips. Very good food and reasonable price. Bit of a fuss about providing a table number at the bar, went outside and the table number had been scraped off! Sachets of ketchup, cheap and messy.

Excellent location, friendly staff, good well priced meals (though only reason for 4 stars because vegetables were not great), and of course they're preparing to celebrate the Coronation! Would return if again visiting Shrewsbury

This pub is great for a casual drink and dinner. Food is good, service excellent. Nothing was too much for the staff.

As a party of four we booked in for Sunday lunch and were extremely pleased with the whole experience. Service was very friendly and efficient. We all had roast lunches (pork and turkey) which were substantial with plenty of potatoes and veg, and very good value for the money. The pub was busy and therefore very popular so it would be wise to book beforehand. We shall certainly return.

A wet day in Shrewsbury was made very much brighter by this cosy pub! A good selection of real ales and ciders and a nice lunch menu; starters, small plate mains, jacket potatoes and sandwiches, all reasonably priced. The bar staff were very friendly and helpful and service was very good. The interior is cosy and full of character with nice nooks and crannies to loose yourself in and good views across the road to the abbey church. All four of us were more than satisfied with our lunches and would retrun for a future visit!
