lunchtime venue, especially with diners. Two roomed pub - restaurant and wine bar. Draught
ales and lively menu - and they'll even do chip butties. Number one in Shrewsbury for
attractive bar-staff. Guest ales. Formerly the Warwick Hotel. Situated on Dogpole.
In 2006 the pubsign with a cartoon of Cromwell was replaced by
something much more in keeping with the historic and architectural values
of the area. There is a nice little garden area at the back. Tel - 01743 361440. Visited
