I quite like the Armoury as a pub, but it’s really shit for food choices if you’re vegan, went for a roast dinner today and they didn’t have a vegan/veggie option, so left.

Lovely place and great service, however I ordered the fish cakes but asked for no tomatoes on the salad that came with it as I don't like tomatoes. I thought they'd do something else instead of tomatoes but it arrived with just the rocket salad and nothing else, not even cucumber. Not hard to make a lovely salad without tomatoes! The cheesecake was lovely, which for £8.95 it should be.

Booked (fortunately) an early table before going to the theatre. In my innocence, I thought it would be nearly empty at 6.30, but it was absolutely rammed. Our table was ready and waiting, the service was efficient given how busy it was, and the food was perfectly fine as top-end pub grub. The wine list was on the expensive side though.

A welcome return to this pub/restaurant set on the Severn in the centre of Shrewsbury. Wonderful to see a full and busy lunchtime service. Good selection of drinks. Surprisingly good and varied range of light bites, main courses and deserts. I can thoroughly recommend the Halloumi flat bread. It was delicious.

Popped in and managed to find a table that wasn’t ‘reserved’ but promptly approached and told we may have to move despite having bought drinks and looking at menu. Then approached again and told we were ok to stay but there would be a delay n food. Decided to leave. Unwelcoming atmosphere and smell was of school dinners.

Incredible food, I had the 10oz Black Angus steak with frankly brilliant onion rings and a good portion of perfect chips followed by a biscoff cheesecake. Every mouthful was a delight. Nothing was too much for our friendly and efficient server Emma, who was happy to deal with any of our requests (i.e deal with me making swap requests and drinks that werent 'technically' on the menu). Back when I was running pubs id have killed for a couple of Emmas! Lovely atmosphere. Fair pricing. Cant speak highly enough of the place.

We arrived early as we had to leave the AirBnB by 11, but they were happy to show us to our table and leave luggage piled up whilst wandering around the quarry. As we just wanted a snack, we got three mains between us (Lamb shoulder, roasted duck leg and battered fish n chips) which everyone enjoyed - lovely rich gravy with the first two! All around wonderful relaxed service - would heartily recommend!

We had a nice meal here. We booked a table, and the right hand side of the venue as you come in was really busy and quite noisy so I was glad we were seated on the left which was quieter. Decent food and relaxed atmosphere, friendly staff. Nice to be able to see the kitchen a little and the plating up all seemed pretty calm (but busy). Waiting staff seemed happy which is also good to see, so all in all a good experience.

Allergens disclosed on booking, allergens disclosed on ordering. Starters came and eaten. Four mains came, and an apology that the fifth meal had allergens in and I needed to change my order. What was I supposed to do when four meals already at the table!!!!! So I picked a cold starter This was taken off the bill and a round of drinks Additionally the manager and a server then discussed my allergy in the dining room pre ordering of pudding - hence we didn’t order as not professional

I went here with my wife and two granddaughters (aged 7 & 10) for lunch before going to the theatre. The food was excellent. My granddaughters both had the children's menu and they both said the food was good. The youngest had a steak which was big enough for an adult and she said it was cooked perfectly (she had requested it medium rare). The eldest had a berger and she said it was good because it didn't come with loads of add ons. Despite being very busy the service was excellent. This was our first visit following a recommendation by a neighbour and we will certainly be going again.

Attended here with work colleagues for our Christmas meal and the whole experience was sensational. Despite how busy the venue was at peak time on Saturday night, the staff saw to our every need quickly, ensuring service was swift & all meals were correct. Given the size of our party, this was not an easy task. The meal itself, speaking for all 3 courses, was utterly faultless. It is with no exaggeration to say it was one of the best Christmas dining experiences I have had.

Hi we walked into this place by chance We waited a while to be greeted and it was busy We had a table for two and only realised after a few minutes that there was a few dogs in We don’t own dogs but if we did we definitely wouldn’t be taking it / them out for lunch with us People didn’t do this years ago so why now !!!! Can’t be good for any food hygiene certificates when a big dog is shaking its hair by the tables Should be sat outside or keep them at home like my owners do all day whilst in work We will definitely not be visiting this place again !!!!

We came here as a group of 4 for dinner close to Christmas. The wine was great, the restaurant is very loud and in this occasion was very busy but good service. We order the starters which were all great, everyone was very happy and then, I ordered the gnocchi which was good. My partner ordered the venison hotpot and was not overly impressed with this but ate it. I think it wasn’t as hot as he would have liked and seemed to lack a little flavour. The drinks here were great though and staff very helpful.

We were a walk in for lunch, staff greeted us and showed us to a table by a roaring fire. Interesting building with veiws over river though a bit faux inside. Hubby had fish and chips I had the steak and ale and mushroom pie at £17.95 I had a lot better elsewhere. Waitress said they were bought in, I suggest they got them from somewhere else. Plesant meal in pleasant surroundings £55. two main meals and 4 pints fine by me.

We love exploring the shops and markets in Shrewsbury, and usually pop in here for lunch. This time we thought we would be disappointed as upon arriving at 13:30 the place was packed. Fortunately we met our waitress Laura, who assured us some tables would shortly become free and came to fetch us from the bar as soon as one was available. The menu is always varied and delicious, but I usually select the fish and chips as it is always beautifully prepared, tasty and of generous portion. My wife selected the fishcake with a side portion of seasonal vegetables and this certainly didn't disappoint. We'll always head here when in Shrewsbury........though given its obvious and well deserved increasing popularity I'll probably be more prepared in future and book a table in advance. Thank you to Laura for your kind and excellent service, you have surely found your niche role in hospitality and would be a credit to any restaurant

We had booked a table for two. We arrived at the booked time, it then took a little while to get somebody's attention. Once we did get their attention they disappeared for about 5 minutes, without saying anything, and then returned to say the table was ready, that's when the fun started!! He took us to a table for 8, then asked it that was okay? I think he could tell from our expression that we were not best pleased. He then magically found a table for 2. We sat there for about 15 minutes and in that time no member of staff approached the table. We got up and left. What is the point of booking tables at your restaurant, when you obviously take no notice of the actual bookings?

Berry sponge, brulee and sticky toffee. A busy place but lots of atmosphere. Service was spot on, only one downside allowing dogs in restaurant is always questionable around diners, one dog had his paw trodden on when server was walking through with plates, unfortunately an accident waiting to happen, and not impressed with dog water bowl on the table!

Visited Tuesday 22/1024. A most enjoyable experience from start to finish. Greeted promptly and provided with a table overlooking the River Severn. Sue our server, was experienced, knowledgeable and alert to our needs. The menu choice was comprehensive and we thoroughly enjoyed our individually prepared meals. The bonus was having the bill reduced by £12 because of the tokens we has been given on previous visits. We have no hesitation in thoroughly recommending The Armoury anf look forward to our next bisit in November.

I told Albrecht that I have been here several times. A good foodie destination, We have eaten here a few times, Sunday roast is yummy. Has previously been in the Good Beer Guide but not at present. No problem however as 8 handpumps serve a super collection of beers. Albrecht took a Clun Brewery ale. Very good. The river side location gets worrying when The Severn floods. The large one room interior sparkles. Well worth a visit.

Handy to have this Tesco Extra open on a bank holiday Monday! We managed to pick up everything we needed for an impromptu barbecue in the garden. It’s a well-stocked store with a good variety of food and drink, including fresh produce, vegetables, salads, tinned goods, milk, butter, and all the essentials. A reliable place for both everyday shopping and last-minute plans.

Please advertise on the menu outside that you don’t do food on Monday. We’d made our choice, gone in, ordered drinks and were then told. Only thing available pork pie/sausage roll (cold) which were sort of ok.

For some reason the atmosphere of this place has changed, in fact it has none! We went for Sunday lunch and it was very, very average. The staff were pleasant enough but the majority were very young girls that seemed to be wandering around aimlessly. We didn’t have a regular waitress it was more ‘whose eye we could catch!’. One of my absolute pet hates is when a roast is ordered the meat is piled on top of the roast potatoes and the plate arrives swimming in gravy. Roast potatoes should be crisp and fluffy and they end up soggy and wet. My friend had the roast pork and it was dry and tough. The Yorkshire pudding was over cooked and looked like it had been to Benidorm for two weeks. I had the Salmon Supreme but it arrived with pasta salad, rice salad, potato salad, house salad, two sprigs of asparagus and a half doorstep of bread and butter. Most odd. It would have been lovely with new potatoes and green salad or asparagus. Somehow the whole meal just missed the mark. Not sure that we will be returning anytime soon.
