Mediocre food if I’m being honest. Strange set up the pub and restaurant are signed differently above separate doors but it’s all one area inside. The young lad serving was very polite, professional and attentive. As was the barman.

I can't praise it enough. A group of five us arrived late but were treated to outstanding selection of alesand lagers with service from the vivacious Charlotte and resident cheeky chappy Jamie. I had a chicken jalfrezi which should be mandatory tasting for any potential vegans ,to point out the fault in their thinking. For a side I ordered fresh keema naan which I only got to enjoy through judicious forking of my companions. Our irish accents granted us an audience with the raconteur landlord who told us tales of his days running some of the best known pubs in Dublin , and his charming wife.Its dog friendly policy was evident in the comfortable beer garden where Oscar sat on his pillow like royalty. God may be irish but when he fancies a fantastic curry with friendly people he heads to the Elephant and Castle. We will return.

Walked in with a few friends for a couple of drinks. Staff very helpful and welcoming. Beer was great, stayed on for food in the Indian restaurant which was excellent. Got chatting to Alan the owner, made us feel right at home. Great experience.

If I could give zero stars I would. Get abused and called names for giving a review. Exactly my point on the professionalism of this “pub”. I’ll say it again We visited this place and were stared down by the staff. The men working there ogled my daughters. The food made us sick. My advice is drive 5 mins to next establishment

Not as good as normal not sure if there is a new chef or they are using a different meat supplier but the lamb chops were really touch they are normally very good which is why I have given 3 stars due to passed experience if I was judging the Elephant and Castle on last nights meal I would have given only one star.

Superb food, actually, possibly the best Indian food I've ever had. The drinks arrangement was a little frustrating though. The restaurant is unlicensed resulting in you having to have a tab with the bar. If this can be resolved then the place would be perfect. 5* none the less!

The food was faultless. Our group had a round of poppadoms with various dips as a starter. Everyone thoroughly enjoyed their meal, I ordered a Lamb Bhuna with Garlic Rice. Very tasty and plenty of it. Everything on the menu seemed very reasonably priced. The staff were courteous. The Elephant and Castle is a nice setting in which to enjoy a meal and a drink and pass time with friends or family. Recommended.

Terrible. We waited 2 hrs for a starter. Then 3 hrs for a main. All of which was very low quality for a curry house standard. Avoid, please. Customer service was not even remotely sympathetic. Of you're lucky and the food comes quicker, do t expect it to be any better. I'm

Is this a four star Michelin-type 5 star rating? No Are the staff really friendly? Yes, is the food selection good? Very much so. I found that their presentation was really sympathetic to myself and the food, almost tapas-like with bowls and terrines that could be mixed or tipped as a liked rather than being proscribed by being served on a plate Overall I found the experience to be great and the bill utterly fair for the service received since this is after all a bar with a restaurant together, if you're going to be in this town for a night or more then make this the place you go to at least once Looking forward to coming back on a summers evening or during the day to make use of what looked like outdoor seating 😊

What a nice place to visit. The building is fairly contemporary (it's ONLY 300 years old) and the manager has a genuine Shawbury accent, but that aside its a great place to go for a variety of things: you might want to consider meeting some new people and getting to know them - this would be a good place for that. You could take your family, your friends, colleagues, heck you could probably take your dog i guess ( i don't have a dog :( ) and they would all have a good time, I mean that's what pubs are for so why not give this one a go!

We have eaten here on previous occasions and have had nice food and good service in the past but not on this occasion . I booked this meal out for my wife’s birthday meal on Saturday night which all 9 of us were really looking forward to. I dropped the birthday cake and balloons for the table off earlier that day as I wanted to make the night special. We were very disappointed from start to finish! From the waitress who was rude and miserable who was attending our table she really shouldn’t be waiting on tables with an attitude like she had. We waited an age to get drinks to our table when they did eventually came out it was in dribs and drabs very slow service. Two of the drinks had to go back as they were mocktails not cocktails. When the food was brought to the tables we were handed the plates and not warned that the plates were hot my daughter and myself nearly dropped them. my wife ordered the steak well done as she always has it, it was so overcooked and dry it was barely edible, not once were we asked if the food was okay and no one came over to ask if everything was okay. But the table behind us which was a party of approx 6 who obviously knew some of the staff were attended by at least 3 staff and looked after so much it’s shame they couldn’t look after all their customers like that. Once again the food was brought out in such slow succession that when we started to eat some of the food was just warm. The final straw was when we were ordering the food I noticed that on the back of the menu it stated if you had a birthday there the person whose birthday it was received a free meal. However when I went to pay the bill I noticed that my wife’s inedible steak was on there. When I then mentioned to the waitress about what it said on the menu even though she’d served us all night saw the balloons on the table and even brought the birthday cake to the table she told me I’d have to prove it was her birthday. This just put the icing on what was an awful birthday meal. When I explained you’ve just served us the cake and why would I spend £50 on a birthday cake just to get a £30 steak free. She then smirked at me and said I can’t do it anyway I’ll have to get the restaurant manager. I would seriously reconsider eating here again. Your waiting staff seriously need some manners when serving customers. Thank you for ruining my wife’s birthday meal.

Service would have got a lower mark (but the staff were very friendly and helpful) as it was incredibly slow, 15 mins for starter, (Terrine) which was awful, overpowering taste of black pepper so couldn’t taste anything else, 10 mins for main which was actually good (beef cheeks) 20 minutes for VERY disappointing dessert (chocolate mousse) which probably had a teaspoon of mousse in a chocolate shell for £10!) within this time it also took around 10-15 minutes twice for drinks we had ordered (margaritas which must have had 20ml of liquid in the glass) to be delivered to the table. Overall poor service, & vastly overpriced food and drinks, We WERE asked and we gave this feedback to the server who said she would pass it on. Would NOT recommend. For context this was a late birthday outing for a friend, we are both retired Chèf’s of some standing, I also, when I lived in Shrewsbury 10 years ago, had a beautiful and perfect wedding meal here, how things have changed. We passed several different places to eat in the walk to here and now wished we’d eaten in one of those. Nearly £110 for two people for this level of food and service was unacceptable. Would NOT recommend.
