Great place to take your horses to ride on the Long Mynd. Lovely cosy pub and tasty pub grub, great selection of beer too, shame I was driving!
We enjoyed the most delicious Sunday Lunch 6 adults and a toddler ! The food arrived hot, plentiful & delicious. Desserts were great too. Lottie looked after us so well, distracted our little one while she waited for her food ! She is a credit to the Crown . We will be back very soon, thank you.
Wow, went for a Sunday roast. Staff were lovely, food was the best ever. Service was quick. The flavours on the roast were amazing. Good portion size. Blown away(fussy eater too) Totally hit the spot and wanted more. Thankyou
