Loggerheads in Shropshire - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Quirky olde-worlde pub with multiple rooms. Thoroughly nice people throughout, and the beer was well kept and most agreeable! Good times.

Simple food, cheese & onion bap well made and tastes great with a pint. We keep coming back.

1700s pub in traditional style selling good beers. Does not do food.

One of the last remaining real ale pubs, a superb pint as always thanks Mike and the team

Very disappointing, used to be a great pub. Now has rude staff and expensive.

Great hidden gem of a pub, if you like quirky, this is the place. My wife and i went there last Sunday, 9th June, and found it refreshing having the barman interact and join in on the banter. Only went for one, I have no idea how many I had in the end. Had a great afternoon. 🍻

Slow service, rude bar person. I think the staff need training or replacing. The mens loo smell awful, which is right next to the kitchen.

If you ever visit Shrewsbury you have to go here. It looks pretty much as it did in the 19th century. Great beers and good company 😀

I was told I had to write a positive review of this pub to regain admittance after six months - a ban originally imposed following a review critical of their haphazard and unpredictable closing times. I don't respond well to to demands that I consider coercive and manipulative - so here is a rating based on my correspondence with the management.

Service area too small to cope with four dingy rooms all competing for attention. Dark and dismal with a rude barman. no outdoor seating.

Visited Mike and the staff on our recent visit to Shrewsbury and found he’s pub and staff delightful. They went out of thier way to accomodate myself and my wife. The pub is quirky in its layout,giving rooms that were quite, private or you could enjoy the live music in the larger bars,if you wish. Glasses were very clean ( i always check 🤷🏻‍♂️) and the real ales a treat. Highly recomend Mike and team, i can honestly say, We cannot wait to visit The Loggerheads again. Thanks to you all for your friendliness and best night out in a long time We will be back soon for another wonderful night. R Currie West Sussex

Unfortunately place has problems with time. If say last orders is 10:30, then it's 10:30 not 10:25 so you can close 30 minutes early on a Saturday night. My first bad review of a pub ever, after 45 years. The barman was just rude with no service skills. Never again. No matter what the landlord replies with. Mine is the truth.

Never again, bar person was more concerned with closing early then the correct time for last orders.On a Saturday night this is awful. Go somewhere else to guarantee a good night. Your reply is a joke. I point at the clock as it said 10:25, check your cctv again, the camera is on the left of camera, see my picture. Last orders 10:30 and closes at 11, thats what he said. If you just admitted it, then no problem but your reply sums you up. No wonder its empty these days, been drinking there on/off since 1983. Like I said dont risk at night out here, Try Nags. I can see previous reviews your opening times can't be trusted. My picture proves my review. Also this my first bad review for a pub ever! 45 years!

Nice traditional pub. Cheese and Onion cobs were welcomed.

Real old school pub, 4 small rooms, very cosy.. Great staff, and friendly locals...most importantly good beer...

The Loggerheads is a grade ll listed 18th century pub with an original interior of national importance. The four rooms are all different. There is an excellent choice of hand pulled cask conditioned real ales. The left hand former men only room is served from a small hatch. Featured in the Camra good beer guide. A fantastic pub a visit is highly recommended.

Dog friendly, nice pint and a nice lunch

Visiting Shrewsbury for a football match and visited this pub as my first stop before the game. A cracking traditional pub. Beer was spot on (both the choice and the quality), service friendly and a pint was only £2.70!! Although it was quiet (mid-afternoon on a Tuesday), there was a group singing folk songs in the other bar. Love it.

Very enjoyable visit after the 'Pool had played Shrewsbury. Friendly staff.

A classic unspoilt pub serving the more traditional cask ale - the Bank’s Amber bitter was on great form. Friendly clientele where conversation rules.

Originally houses, the Loggerheads pub, on beautiful Church Street, dates back to the early C18, and was my favourite of the Shrewsbury pubs I visited. The ground floor has its original room plan intact and consists of Gentleman's Bar (“Gents only”, so I wasn’t allowed in), Bar, Lounge and Snug. Good beer, and cheap, too.

Iconic Shropshire pub. Great atmosphere and great beer. Still fantastic craic, every Tuesday and Thursday.

Found this lovely pub last Saturday whilst walking around Shrewsbury. A proper pub, great atmosphere nice prices. Didn't have food but if you're in the area pop in and give it a go.

The loggerheads was warm and inviting, so we're the staff! Only fault I could find is that they were a bit pricey.

A great little pub that seems to open and close on the publicans whim. Never sure if the doors will be open or closed. Unreliable if you are banking on it being open after 6pm

Real old school traditional pub. Multiple bars for good ale and quiet conversation. Absolute gem!

Excellent traditional pub. Barman said it's the oldest (solely) pub in Shrewsbury. Small rooms, fire burning and great selection of bitters.

A revisit after 12 year gap. The place is the same, in the best possible way. Well-kept ale, good prices, that extraordinary time-out-of-mind character that the location, small rooms and hodge-podge furnishings give it. I've added a star.

What a gem of a pub ! So relaxing and just what we needed !

Lovely little pub, friendly welcome and a great beer. Keep up the good work 👍

Felt like I had stepped right back to the early '60s. Loved it! Good beer.

Cracking ale house in Shrewsbury as old as they come! About 4 rooms all with their own character. Loads of ales on. Lovely vibe and ambience as you’d expect from a pub as old as this. Supposedly haunted if that floats your boat!! Old school. Highly recommended 🍻 👻

No food, lovely old traditional pub.

Multi roomed masterpiece, small bar/snug, with many interconnecting rooms, wood panelling and quarry tiling. About 5 ales available on the bar.

Wow what a fantastic original old world pub and brilliant beer selection....

Lovely old pub with a maze of places to sit

Great pub staff are friendly, proper boozer with good choice of cask beer and decent cider, definitely be back

A first class god old fashioned traditional tavern, fantastic sociable atmosphere and a fantastic place to pop on for a quick drink and take the weight off your feet when out and about shopping in town.

Great traditional pub in Shrewsbury, survived as it would have been over 100 years ago, very friendly atmosphere and traditional ales, well worth a visit.

Lovely old fashioned pub. We went to a tue open mic night , the other customers were quite friendly and welcoming although not so the bar man. He wasn’t at all welcoming and made me feel uncomfortable , won’t be spending our money there again.

Good old fashioned pub, if you just want a well cellered pint and a chat, this one's for you.

how a pub should be nice beers, labyrinthine interior offering either privacy or company and bar staff with enough sarcasm to keep one on their toes, really like the poems. spot one.

Nice pub, good beer friendly staff

Myself and my wife were in Shrewsbury for 4 nights and came here every day. Favourite pub in Shrewsbury. Great place to have a drink and always a character or two to get chatting to. No music, no food, just a good old fashioned pub where you can drink and chat.

Seemed a bit out of place as lots of locals but a decent pint of beer. Bit confusing as a number of doors but only one bar!

Great cosy boozer with friendly helpful staff. The male behind the bar couldn’t do enough for us and doubled as a tour guide. Hobgoblin Gold on fraught and £2.70 a pint on a Tuesday. With live music Tuesday and Thursday we will be back! Worth a visit

Great pub. Drinks were nice and cold and service was great.

Working away so need somewhere to eat. Reasonable prices and very quick service. England game was on too so added bonus.

Great proper pub - I bet there is loads of history here!

Been here a few times now, I love the old world feel and the random rooms to sit and have a drink in. It's pretty neat to sit in a pub thats been here for centuries, a cool bit of history. I also enjoyed seeing it recently on a haunted Britain series and this was way after the fact of visiting. The ghosts add to the atmosphere I think, a little extra company. The man behind the bar has always been nice when he's tended to us, can't say anything about other staff as I've never seen them lol. My favourite little spot to have an ale or a spot of gin in Shrewsbury. Nice place!

Lovely traditional pub. Good real ales at a very reasonable price. Didn't dine on our visit just drank!

Was visiting the town for the day and dropped on the Loggerheads. Superb pub full of character and a pleasant reminder of how pubs should and used to be. I opted for Directors and it was spot on.

Jim behind the bar was amazing, funny and friendly ,he was very knowledgable about the town and its history. Extremely accommodating and we will definitely be visiting such a friendly pub with a great atmosphere. Fresh pints, clean glass accompanied by a great selection of nibbles. Overall an outstanding local pub with great staff.

What a great pub. Jim behind the bar is a character, and font of all loggerheads knowledge. Highly recommended for a top noth beer and banter.

This is a nice, characterful old pub in central Shrewsbury. We didn't have food, but we came a couple times for beer. The had a good range of cask ales and all of those we had were in excellent condition. They had mostly beers of the Marston's /Banks's line, including the Bah Humbug winter ale, Banks's Amber Bitter, Hobgoblin. Prices were low.

Sound gaff, always worth a visit.

Classic old pub just how I like them. Great range of beers, ales etc at great prices.

As usual, very reasonably priced and delivered in a convivial atmosphere.

Nice, traditional pub with a good choice of ale.

A splendid place, from every perspective

In camra 2023 good beer guide, well worth a visit,in heritage guide ,cosy old world pub,fine ales and a landlord with a great sense of humour

My husband and I popped in on the off chance, we found the sign outside stating Hubby Day Care hilarious. The Ales were perfect, a great selection. I enjoyed a couple of glasses of wine more than I should have. Would recommend 100%. Next time we’re in Shrewsbury it will be our first stop.

A traditional pub with lots of character and charm. The team are friendly and welcoming. There is always a good selection of ales available. Would highly recommend.

My go to pub whenever I’m in town, wonderful selection of real ales. Always kept perfect, friendly staff. I come in often on my own and always find somebody new to talk too. This is how a pub should be.

Typical pub. Good familiar atmosphere. It deserves a pint if you are nearby.

Always a warm welcome from Mike! Lots of cosy little rooms to explore, great beer and a friendly vibe 🍻

Lovely to see there are still some proper pubs left great beer great service in a lovely atmosphere. Really enjoyed the ale which was obviously well looked after. we will be back

Great traditional pub with to quality cask ales.

Have been to this pub on many occasions & have enjoy the atmosphere there. however last evening we arrived to find the most unwelcoming barman who appeared reluctant to want to serve us however he did & we sat down & had our drink. All of the time we were there he was tidying around the place which was fine. Then our wives arrived about 10pm, and were told the bar was shut. We highlighted to him that they were with us & he again reluctantly agreed to serve them & we had another also. We asked him if he was closing to which he mumbled that he`d serve us. then at 1025pm he calls to drink up to which we did. this whole visit was very uncomfortable & not as it has been in the past. A very unwelcoming & rude person. Dont open if you dont want to have customers !!!!

Great traditional pub in the heart of Shrewsbury, fantastic ales, warm atmosphere. Staff are great. Highly recommend. 🍺🍺🍺

Nice quirky old style pub with decent selection of cask ales

Excellent will keep coming back

Multi roomed old pub great beers. What's not to like

One of the best pubs in Shrewsbury, with little rooms and uneven floors. We always meet nice people to chat to when we visit. Staff are great.

Very friendly people, popular so need to get in early Would recommend

A very nice pin and friendly people

Excellent local bar. Good range of draught beers at affordable prices. Friendly staff. Would highly recommend

Great little find up a small street. Really good kept pint of wainwright's. Good atmosphere and bar staff

Up there with the best Shrewsbury pubs, and very quaint

Old fashioned traditional pub. Reasonable prices,

Small pub great price for the ale though!

Authentic pub with great atmosphere, especially when the singers are there.

Love this pub. Quiet, a good place to escape from the outside world to get yourself together and from time to time we all need time to ourselves.

A lovely old pub, good selection of beer and different rooms in which to enjoy it.

Lovely pub with so much character

What a find when visiting Shrewsbury.Great service from Chris who not only served us but gave us all the info of the pub .A must visit place if your on a break

A wonderful historic pub with great ales and lots of interesting rooms.

Brilliant place ,staff were lovely and helpful, very disabled friendly, helped me with my mobility scooter and made me me feel very welcome. Hope to visit again .thank you

Amazing hidden gem a pub beautifully frozen in time a fun pub both inside and out definitely visit if you're in Shrewsbury

Fusty smell on pint of cider, whole place had a wiff of wee

Excellent little pub, very friendly chap that served us. Lots of interesting history on the walls to look at while you refresh yourself

Lovely, relaxed pub with a great atmosphere and tasty pints!

Good beer and chatty locals could get lost all the small rooms.

This is one of the loveliest pub buildings in the country. The building itself is enough to make people want to visit. We used to go here on any Saturday night when we were in Shrewsbury and on other occasions but a change of management in 2015 (early 2016?) resulted in us stopping. We gave it another try last night (July 2017) and were pleased to note that it had improved somewhat. At the least the rather ill-tempered barman who once more or less threatened to call the police if the group of 4 pensioners from the Cotswolds didn't either finish or leave behind the drinks that he had served them 5 minutes earlier on the last orders bell seems to have gone. The snug is still a lovely room and a great place to make new friends although the lighting now seems excessive (it used to be a little gloomy, which was appropriate) and we hate the horrible, mainly ribald "rhymes" that are written on blackboards around the wall for what they call "Poet's Corner". We're not prudish - they are simply crass and the word "you're" is written "your'e" in one verse which is just weird. Anyway, The Loggerheads might be back on our list of pubs worth visiting. Hopefully they can find a way to improve. It wasn't that busy and we didn't recognise any of the former regulars, which could be a problem for the business. The place should be packed. The beer was ok, if a little uninspiring, presumably because it's a brewery pub (Marston's?) with little choice.

Local pub full of locals very welcoming bit of a man's pub but still good to go

Good old fashioned pub with decent beer and good service

Old, quirky, great beer and always a chat if you want it with those that call in

Quirky old fashioned type of pub with several small rooms independent of the bar.

Great pub!! Friendly and good selection of beers.

Good beer and friendly service. Old style, multi-room pub.
