Coleham Tap in Shropshire

Just booked for a meal on the 2nd April at 6pm, we need a disabled parking space, told it was first come first served, Bear in mind you have to book in when you get to the pub, the chap l spoke to on the phone wasn't very helpful, what if we got there and the spaces were already taken, please help if you can

Lovely hot food . Good service , lovely pub

Last week we have visited coleham tap and terrace.it was a great experience with tasty food,friendly staff and pleasant ambiance.I strongly recommend this pub .Thank you so much Luke & simon🥰

Excellent Sunday lunch. The service was brilliant and nothing was too much even though they were very busy. The pub is very welcoming and clean and on a sunny day I can see us sat outside 😀 The roast was hot and great portions and beef was perfectly cooked! I highly recommend the crumble for dessert this was to die for! See you soon we will definitely be returning

Just popped by for a drink, I was walking past and just saw the lovely lights in the garden. Went in and it had a very cozy feel inside. Greeted with the most welcoming staff. Love the decor and vibe in the garden. Gonna visit again and try the food.

Lovely atmosphere as you walk in, great staff and attentive. The food, well … I’ve never had a better Sunday roast yet. Amazing food, cooked perfectly. Starters too, ever tasty. Highly recommend . Very impressed to say the least

Great gem of a pub/ good foody place and coffees very good 👌short walk from bottom of wyle cop shrewsbury , parking on site with easy accessible for wheelchairs if needed , Back with lovely outdoor space overlooking the fabulous river severn and quarry park the other side of river , Make it a date there now you will not be disappointed 👌🥰

Excellent service. Super quick food and excellent standard. Staff were super friendly and we got a very warm welcome.

Fantastic public house in lovely setting. Food was great all presented lovely and tasted Fantastic. All staff we brilliant from taking orders to checking we were ok or needed anything else.. Definitely being using to pub more often everything was spot on. Lovely and clean with a great atmosphere

Staff are brilliant here, very well run. Busy and great food.

Parked and went for a drink, came away with a parking fine. Disappointed to say the least.

Had a wonderful lunch here today, not been here before but definitely will be returning. Lovely friendly service, and great food

Beautiful spot for an afternoon drink but wow wee, do you pay for the privilege! Just over £16 for a pint of fruit cider, medium (not large) white wine and 2 packs of crisps! Could have bought a main course for that and still have change! Thank you but no thank you for a return visit.

Excellent service and meal. Food was delicious and I highly recommend it.

Really bad service. Staff complained about customers and turned us away for no reason when we had a table booked. A terrible experience. YOU ARE A LIAR. I never even spoke to you or touched you. I will report this incident to my direct boss at Marstons!

In the sunshine, the beer garden by the river is perfect. You couldn't fault it.

Excellent service and pleasant food

Great spot by the river. But it's now £6.15 a pint!! :-(

Lovely sunshine type of day for a bear garden and great food, two lovely staff also.

We eat out very frequently and this has got to be the worst experience we have ever had in Shrewsbury. The two male staff were extremely arrogant and rude before even ordering a drink. We booked a table and they told us to go without any reason. They really upset my step dad who is 76 years of age. The two male staff need a lesson in manners and how to treat people like human beings. The coleham tap and its hospitality is disgusting. They should be ashamed of themselves.:-(

We had a wonderful meal again. Another fantastic lunch. Food was beautiful. Hunters chicken is the best !!!!

Excellent riverside venue with great food and friendly stafd

We were a table of 6 by the window, as I'd requested, thank you. All the staff were friendly and helpful. The food was hot and delicious. Would definitely recommend.

Food was lovely and fresh. Service was attentive. Atmosphere was cosy and welcoming

Lovely meal as always and pleasant staff

Amazing food, brilliant service, lovely pub, highly recommend!

Lovely visit with my wife and dog for a drink after a walk .

Friendly welcoming staff. Nice ambience. Good location. Very nice food.

Always good atmosphere staff great

Absolutely stunning service , food quality And Filling , couldn’t manage a pudding! Many thanks .

The Coleham Tap today catered a Wake for my husband's Mum & they did us proud! Food was a good selection of warm & cold, fresh, plentiful & tasty - well presented. Everyone commented on how they had enjoyed the buffet. Owners & staff friendly, helpful & nothing was too much trouble -accolades! Seriously recommend 👌

Had a lovely Sunday roast at this place. Lovely views over the river and managed to enjoy a drink in the sun before heading inside for our roast. Beef was cooked to perfection & nice to see a decent amount of vegetables on a Sunday dinner. Roasted carrots & parsnips were delish. Massive Yorkshire pudding as well. Topped off with a fantastic ice cream sundae. Definitely worth the hour trip from home to come back & enjoy good food & service.

The food was fantastic, atmosphere was bubbly and service was friendly. The wine we wanted was out of stock, which was disappointing, but a suitable substitute was offered. I’d like to have seen a wider range of options on the menu, but I was told a new menu is being released so we look forward to seeing what that’s like when it comes out.

We’ve been to The Coleham Tap a few times now, and it’s always spot on. The staff are really friendly, and the food is great—plenty of choice and great quality . Would definitely recommend it for lunch or dinner. The location is perfect, especially if you fancy a walk along the Quarry or into town afterwards. We will definitely be returning!🙂

Friendly warm atmosphere, excellent service and delicious food. We had a lovely evening with friends. We will definitely visit again.

Excellent value for money ,friendly efficient staff Great position on the river

Booked a small gathering in the Tap snug today. During the planning, Luke’s emails were returned promptly and professionally, arrived to a wonderful welcome from Simon, who was the perfect host, his team took great care of us, cooked beautiful food and made sure we had everything we needed. The beer was delicious too, x Thank you to all the team who helped us enjoy a wonderful celebration, your hard work is truly appreciated.

Excellent service, good choice of meals, fast and efficient service. Decent amount of good, tasty quality food. Very clean tables.

Very enjoyable visit good food and service.

5* all around, The food is always fantastic, the managers are amazing and always go out of their way to help find us a table last minute, Would definitely recommend

Great spot by the river for lunch. Very friendly service. Good range of drinks and well presented food. Outdoor courtyard looks great for a summer’s day when we get there.

The ambience is cheery, the staff are very helpful, the pub including toilets is very clean and the food is absolutely fantastic!

Great place to have drink or eat ,the food is spot on

Lovely atmosphere, great food and fab staff. Highly recommend

Great food and service all round! Couldn't fault it! Would recommend! ❤️👍

Lovely place, staff are excellent. Food is good, menu changes seasonally and has some nice surprises on it. It’s a Marstons pub and has their beer range, and it’s got a great atmosphere and we spent a lovely afternoon eating and drinking with friends!

Ideal place for food and a pint. Great staff.

We had our work Christmas party at the Coleham Tap last night. 22 people in the party as 2 didn't turn up. The team were friendly, fun and nothing was too much trouble. Simon is a fantastic host and our whole party had a brilliant night. So much so I'm fairly sure they will be happy to have next years party there too. The food, atmosphere and service were fantastic. Cannot fault them at all.

The choice of food was great. My choice of chicken & chorizo kebab on flatbread was delicious. I was too full for a pudding however the choice was good. The service was impeccable as always. Staff friendly and attentive. Environment clean and there was a good atmosphere. See you soon and over the festive period.

Enjoyed a festive Christmas lunch with work colleagues and the food was lovely and hot - we all thoroughly enjoyed it and will be back!

We had our chemo chicks Christmas party here last night. Would highly recommend!! The food was amazing and the staff have been so friendly and helpful during the evening and throughout organising. There was 40 of us and everyone loved their meal. Well done to all staff!!! 5 star experience!!!

The staff made us feel so special. Excellent

Fabulous food, staff amazing, very helpful , reasonably priced

Great location right by the river and it's been renovated to a good standard but the drinks prices are very off putting. I tried two different beers. £6:05 and £6:70 very off putting.

The four of us had a fantastic experience. The festive fare was delicious and the service was exceptional. A great meal.

Nice pub, good staff and friendly atmosphere. Not all choices across both menus were available on the day we visited.

We try to visit The Coleham Tap regularly. You will receive great service by lovely staff and good food. Great value and very welcoming.

Excellent. Great food service and atmosphere very warm and friendly

Pleasant staff, nice food and service. Disappointed the car park was full.

Wow what a fantastic pub, stunning setting overlooking the river, recently refurbished, immaculately clean, very efficient staff, especially the guy serving behind the bar and most of all lovely food, I had the fish and chips, a large fish with nice light batter plenty of chips served with mushy peas & real tartare sauce, my partner had the steak & ale pie, again large, with lots of succulent meat filling, served with fresh vegetables, she asked if she could swap the mash for chips which wasn't a problem, all in all, a thoroughly enjoyable meal, thank you

Always a great atmosphere and excellent service. The Christmas decorations are outstanding

Definitely the best pub in Shrewsbury, lovely staff, great food, would definitely recommend

Great food, great value, great service

Had not prebooked, but tables available. Lovely food.

We were staying in Shrewsbury last week & went into this pub just for an evening drink, we loved the atmosphere so relaxing & the bar staff made us feel so at home we not only stayed there all night but booked evenings meals for the next 2 nights &, were not disappointed the meals were excellent, we will definitely be returning next year. Tracy & Andrew Boden

Great afternoon with close friends in a warm, welcoming, friendly pub with lovely decor. Food was very tasty, fish cooked beautifully with well cooked chips. Trip of ice cream were gorgeous flavours. Service excellent from friendly and efficient staff.

Very friendly welcome, excellent food & atmosphere. All staff looked happy to be working there. Thank you 😊

Good food, good ambience, friendly staff - will return.

Be warned they charge for parking and was issued a £100 fine. I’ve parked here when visiting the pub for years but not aware of changes. I visit the pub regularly when I walk in and never seen any signs. The car park is pitch black so no signs were seen. There are no signs on the entrance to the car park as seen in the image below. At the least you would expect staff to tell you when you order but they did not. To penalise customers and then be extremely rude with their response to this first review as seen in the second picture is Disgraceful !!!! Customer lost forever

A great friendly local pub . The food was great, highly recommend the sharing platter for starter. The staff are so friendly and approachable , service is fast and efficient. Can’t recommend enough also a great plus is that it’s dog friendly!

Got charged a parking fine and I saw no signs or was told by bar staff this was the case. Surely these should clearly displayed and mentioned when you order. Disgraceful and customer lost forever

Recently refurbished to a high standard. Lovely location, overlooking the river. Food was excellent: garlic mushrooms and crispy-coated cauliflower for starters, followed by halloumi kebab and chickpea curry mains. Hosts were super friendly and helpful, making us, and our dogs feel very welcome . We will definitely return.

My local! Friendly staff, lovely outside areas overlooking the river and the park, not a gastro pub but varied pub style menu fair quality. If you park remember to put your registration number into the console at the bar and take a photo of you doing it! the staff have no control at all of the parking system. Not a destination establishment but good beer, nice atmosphere and a great location, oh and the wine selection is unexpectedly good.

Had such a wonderful meal here, service was outstanding, food was delicious, we were a large group and the staff could not have been more accommodating, will absolutely be back

Lovely pub, lady at bar was very welcoming..unfortunately the man who was working was extremely rude. This made us want to leave and not have food. He was unhelpful and rude. Another customer we met later that day had the same experience unfortunately. Won't be going back because of this.

A beautiful sunday roast.Highly recommend.Excellent service provided by luke,simon & team. Thankyou all

Visited with a couple of friends, we were made very welcome, great atmosphere, nice log fire, , ice cold wine and delicious food. The watermelon and feta salad was seasoned really well and very fresh, the fish goujon sandwich was delicious. Don’t need to say any more! If you want a lovely pub, with parking and a beer garden looking across the river towards Shrewsbury quarry then this is the place to go!

Great family meal with excellent food and great service.

Over priced slop same as youd expected from witherspoons

Wonderful, helpful staff. High quality, accessible building. Great parking. Lovely food menu with good vegetarian options. Great drinks selections.

Loved this place. It's very close to my partner's home and she brought me here of a Friday evening. Excellent staff, a great atmosphere, and quality choices of drinks!

Lovely meal for 5 friends, food was presented well and very tasty. Good service. Lovely friendly pub with nice atmosphere. Used a 30% off main meal voucher so our meals were well worth the price. Already thinking about our next visit.

Disappointed with your asking for a tip during payment.

Excellent service and lovely staff as always. Generous portions and I had the nicest Caesar salad I've ever had. There was so much chicken there was enough to share with our accompanying dog! They make an excellent pot of tea as well. A pleasant and homely environment.

Great Friendly Pub, good atmosphere, good beer, good food, friendly staff. This is a good example of what a local should be, we dont live in walking distance so have to drive, but it is still our local

A lovely place for food and drink that is dog friendly. Lovely views o er the river.

Lovely setting and wonderful staff

This is an iconic Shrewsbury pub, a favourite for many years. Always a great atmosphere and good value. Great outside river view area.

We visit each time we’re in Shrewsbury. COLEHAM Tap is the best 👍 great food smashing staff always a warm welcome. Would highly recommend it for a great night out. Beautiful outdoor seating areas overlooking the river 👍👍👍👍👍 next day took all our family there and now realise why we go so often. Most impressed!!!!

The Coleham Tap is a nice traditional pub with a good selection of beers, lager and cider, including cask conditioned hand-pulled real ales. The cask ales were very good when i visited. The pub has a nice beer garden with great views of the river. The staff are very friendly and welcoming it's a nice cosy pub worth visiting.

We booked Sunday Lunch for 20 people for my Wife's 60th birthday. The food and service was excellent, and nothing was too much trouble. This is by far our favourite pub in Shrewsbury. Thank you for making my wife's birthday celebrations very memorable.

Excellent service, food amazing!!!!!

was only there a short while and yet was already impressed by the welcome, warm atmosphere, and assiduous service! definitely coming back to actually eat! edited: omg their steaks are amazing! huge recommend! service is excellent and very understanding of my anxious, autistic mess of a self! hidden gem, may never bother with the other side of the river at this rate!

Kyan is a highly professional and respectful staff member, very friendly and overall a great person to speak too. Definetly worth visiting. All the staff are lovely but he goes above and beyond to make sure customers feel welcome.

Lovely location next to the river

Absolutely amazing experience. Food and customer service was outstanding. First time in the pub and we will definitely be back, and have already recommended to friends and family. Angela Powell

Really friendly staff a lovely relaxing Sunday lunch...great food great service our dogs were really spoilt too

I booked a table for 13 people. A pre-order was not requested so I was worried about the time it would take for all meals to come out. There was no need to worry though as the service was fantastic from start to finish. The lady (sorry don't know her name), blonde hair on shift at 2pm was brilliant. Always checked in that everything was ok and had the order correct. The table ordered starters, Sunday dinners, Sunday specials and desserts. Everyone enjoyed their meals, there was not one compliant. I would definitely recommend and I will be returning for sure. Thank you for a lovely afternoon.

Years since I was in last. A up market place. Very tidy inside. Lovely decor and a great beer garden. I'll definitely eat there in the future. Both the Mrs and I had a good experience.

Great riverside pub , food is tasty and prices are very agreeable
