A fantastic local pub, live sports shown daily, monthly live music. The pub has a great selection of drinks to suit everyone. Great staff, quick service & fantastic atmosphere. This pub is situated by the train station so was ideal when waiting for the train. Thank you, we will be returning!

Called in while waiting for a train, friendly bar staff and was busy for a Saturday lunchtime, drinks seemed expensive for a local pub, £4.10 for a bottle of bud is too much. ☹️

I stopped in the cross foxes on the way home because I was waiting on my bus. When I walked in, it seemed very friendly and an everyone-knows-everyone kinda thing. The barman saved me some money by up selling me. Three Budweiser's for £9.50 whereas it would've worked out more expensive for just the one. So props to Dan for the banter and the good vibes.

What a gem,my son and I travelled over from Ireland to watch our local soccer team playing in Oswestry.Straight off the train not knowing where to get a cab,we called into the Cross Foxes and Roy was very welcoming and sorted a taxi for us. What a fantastic pub and absolutely spotlessly clean. Can't wait to go back .Well done Roy.

Not a sophisticated pub, but good friendly staff serving tidy Beers, Lager n Stout. Great for post or pre Gobowen train refreshments. Why not order your Chinese, Fish n Chips or Pizza takeaway and give yourself 30 minutes drinking time. Life isn't for rushing.

Called in to see friends, was pleasenty surprised, The Cross Foxes has just had a decor refurbished, both inside and out, the bar is nearly a 360 degree open plan, one big L shaped, but the room is sectioned off in a open plan room, confusing you might think, one portion is clearly a Snug the tap in the middle & then the games room, pool table, juke box, The Foxes seems to cater for the locals, I'm sure if hot drinks & small snacks the local Train Station commuters would be attracted to this Establishment, all in all everyone seemed friendly, it was absent of a local youth gathering which surprised me because of the Games room. I believe the landlord is relatively new & he's done a great job on the look & feel in general of the Foxes but also is quite selective of his clientele. Would visit again. Felt relaxed, safe, no rowdiness that the Foxes as had a reputation of in the past.....

This a traditional wet pub so no food here. Landlord is a a nice guy. Only reason 4 and not a 5 star is it's brewery owned so beer is expensive. it has a pool table and dart board .

Had lunch here with a very large family group 17 of us ,the meal had been pre-arranged .The staff were lovely very friendly and welcoming .We were in the Royalist restaurant ,people say the hotel is out dated ,but that is part of the history of the hotel and character , modern decor would not do the hotel justice , and shrewsbury town is a medieval town , the Prince Rupert was former home to Prince Rupert the grandson of King James 1 ,so why would anyone want to change such an Iconic hotel into a modern hotel . Our food and service was fantastic the serving staff were lovely very efficient and we didn't have to wait long between courses . My partner and I had Sweet corn Veloute for starters ,then Hake and then Chocolate Brownie with ice cream ,Every course was delicious served on hot plates . So if you like places with history and good food and service ,I can highly recommend the Prince Rupert every where was lovely and clean too .

We had a birthday afternoon tea here and thoroughly enjoyed it. Being February and miserable weather, we had the place to ourselves but the staff had gone to a lot of effort - decorating the birthday girl's table with birthday confetti. Nice and cosy inside. The food was very good - nice selection of sandwiches - what I would call sensible fillings like cheese and chutney, ham and tomato, tuna mayo, and egg. Our only comment would be to include a few more of the tuna and egg ones as there were quite a few of the ham and tomato which for our group was the least popular flavour. A selection of four different cakes - carrot, victoria sponge, chocolate and a very good syrupy flapjack. Small pieces but we liked that as you could have a bit of everything without feeling like you were going to explode! Very fresh and tasty. Finally cream scones - and yay - proper clotted cream! My son has a lot of allergies so chose a baked potato off the main menu. The staff were very helpful at the booking stage sorting out his meal and he enjoyed it. Am sure it must be lovely in summer time with all the plants and being able to sit outside - will definitely come back again.
