The Shakespeare, Bridgnorth

This may have changed hands as whatever other faults it may have poor beer isn't one of them. It is a long thin pub, with the counter well back from the High St end door and down a small flight of steps. Two handpumps with Banks's flavour of the month beers on, World Cup theme this month. Traditional pub furnishing of a few chairs with a odd bareboard and carpet mix. Low rent punters and staff but ok and the beer was fine.

Large white rendered Banks's house, with open plan interior and beer patio in the yard. The interior is a mix of plain wall and wallpapered walls, with some old pictures on the walls. Had a dining area and lounge - the latter with a wood floor. It was clean and friendly, with its own skittle alley. The beer on offer was Banks's Bitter and MILD cask on electronic pump, with Jennings Honey Bole and i think another handpull. Honey bole was fine. Another solid pub, to which i would return, but the beer is common enough for where i live, so maybe i would do this pub every other trip.

well done to barney and all his staff for a friendly pub with good food, log fire and nice atmosphere.

Great pub, beer excellent. Food delicious and reasonable.
