About us

Traditional two roomed community pub in an early Victorian neighbourhood, comprising of public bar and a comfortable lounge to the rear. It could once have been a company pub as they have a picture of 1 1/2d tokens which were issued to workers to spend at the bar. Also, there are musical instruments on the wall for use by customers.

Now open all day every day following a change of management in Aug 2014. The recent addition of a wood-burner gives the bar area a more welcoming feel in the Winter months. Selected ales are still available at £1.99/pint all day on Tuesdays (Jul 2016).

Always made to feel welcome by the landlord, landlady, and staff, been in here a couple of times when coming over to Shrewsbury to see my sister and family. It's a great little back street pub. Keep doing what you are doing as you have a classic pub.

Found by happy accident during riverside walk. A wonderful ‘proper’ neighbourhood pub, sadly a threatened species. Friendly welcome from staff & locals, excellent beer, very relaxed. I wish I lived nearer but I will return. Well done to those in charge, you’re doing important work 👏

We traveled around the world just to find a proper pub and boy did we ever!! We spent many a day/night sitting around with Kev & Angie. There is nothing like the Dog & Pheasant in Michigan. It’s one of the last proper pubs with outstanding management that is active in raising money for local charities. Games are plenty, music is available and darts & dominoes are a weekly event. This is the best pub in Shrewsbury, and I wager it rivals any pub in the UK.

One of the last great remaining proper pubs in town. Hidden away in a row of terraced houses, you could easily never know it was there. The hosts and staff are the friendliest and welcoming around, the fellow drinkers are friendly too. This is a drinkers pub, although they are planning a food menu in a couple of years 😂. They do have a great selection of bar snacks though. Plenty of table top games to keep you occupied, darts and dominoes too. Juke box in the lounge and fires to keep you warm in the winter. You may even find the days vegetable haul available from from some of the locals, or some tasty jams. If your near here, go spend some time and have a drink. You’ll want to stay!
