The Peacock - Shropshire

I like the ambience of an olde style pub like this. We were greeted immediately with option of 2 tables, and seated. A waitress came over within a couple of minutes to take our drinks order, which was fulfilled fairly swiftly. About 10 minutes later a waitress came over to just let us know they were busy, and hadnt forgotten us, and came back a further 10 minutes and took our order. I expect it was another 20 before our dinner arrived. The food was lovely and plenty of it. If you go in with a requirement of service as quick as a fast food restaurant, then go elsewhere, if you like to take your time, here is fine.

We arrived at 5.15 pm on a Wednesday evening. We had to wait for a member of staff to greet us for 3 or 4 mins, our drinks order came quickly then we had another wait for our order to be taken, the food was cooked to order and was delicious. Didn’t see a staff member until we had finished our main course for quite a while. 2 courses and nearly 2 hours later we left. Another diner came in at 6.45 pm. We were the only ones in the restaurant. I’m sure they would get more customers if they revamped the outside (cut down plants covering the windows for instance) and restaurant a little and advertised, the food quality would ensure more customers. I would certainly recommend the food

Great steaks, my wife had fillet and I had a sirloin, best ever that we’ve had . A bit surprised that we were the only ones eating in the restaurant part of the pub, we were in early evening. Dauphinoise potatoes like we’ve never had before

We booked for Father’s Day. The staff were friendly and attentive. The Sunday lunch was delicious, with a good choice of options. All cooked to perfection. We would highly recommend and will return very soon.

Booked dinner on the advice of our local host. Our dinner was just brilliant. Compliments to the chef and staff. Amazing!
