Summerhouse Bonningale Holyhead Road in Shropshire

Had a lovely afternoon at the summerhouse with family. Attended for a carvery, the food did not disappoint, excellent quality, vegetables were fresh, generous amount of meat and all for £11.99 you cannot go wrong. The staff were very attentive, a warm welcoming atmosphere and to top it off the dessert was delicious! Highly Recommended!

Really nice food, good choice of meals, including specials. Friendly welcoming staff, very pleased thanks. Would recommend.

Lovely food friendly staff excellent service. Lovely location in Boningale . Would recommend a visit lovely country pub

Since the new owners have taken over the summer house Boningale it has improved enormously with great atmosphere, Friendly staff and great quality food cooked perfectly

Nice hot tasty food, came really quickly, portions a good size too. Nice relaxing surroundings, good selection of drinks

Fabulous bank holiday weekend, brilliant live music, food was excellent and the outdoor seating area perfect. Plenty of staff running around and everyone happy to be there. Price of food good, especially the Sunday carvery and choices. Thanks for a really good day… not even the windy weather deterred us. We will be back. Highly recommend!

We went for some lunch on a Saturday, I did pre book the table just incase, but seemed there was plenty availability when we arrived. Staff where very friendly and welcoming, nice relaxed atmosphere. This is our 3rd visit here and we have no complaints. I never left any reviews previously but I would highly reccomend the Sunday lunch too!. Food on our Saturday visit was very enjoyable, 3 of our group enjoyed the hunters chicken and 1 member had the chicken fillet burger, no complaints here. Puddings where very good too. All in all 10/10 and we will definitely be back.

Staff very friendly and food spot on , not to much and not to little , lovely tasty food , will recommend to all my friends and family

Food has definitely improved, staff very friendly, especially Danni she was very busy on her own , but very professional and helpful

Great cozy spot, nice varied menu (including a great mix of vegetarian and vegan options also) and the service by Danielle was excellent. Highly recommend!

Lovely friendly staff nice menus enough choice, carvery is very good, food came quickly plenty car parking great bar and choice

Lovely atmosphere, food is always great! Price is definitely value for money too. And staff are always super welcoming.

Popped in for lunch on Saturday afternoon. A pleasant atmosphere, if a little quiet, and service with a smile from Danielle. Food was decent 'pub grub' and the beer was good. Overall, a good choice for a casual meal out 👍

Quality of food was very good and well presented.Had light bite meals and there was plenty on plates. Didn't have to wait long for meals, around 15 minutes which is very good for a Saturday evening. Will definitely go again and recommend.

Another evening meal but on a weekend with my hubby and the inlaws. Asked for a table near to the conservatory entrance and wasn't disappointed (table 3). Food amazing as always. Attention to detail was second to none. Kev even spoke to the chef who was so attentive. Would definitely recommend.

Visited today with my Mom & Dad. Staff were all really friendly, the waitress who served us it was her first day she made us feel really welcome & was so friendly and helpful I had the Tandoori Hanging Kebab from the specials board which was absolutely beautiful, the meat was so succulent, really enjoyed it. My Dad had Grilled Cod Fillet from the specials board which looked amazing, he ate everything on his plate & said it was a lovely tasty meal Well done everyone at the Summerhouse 🙂

First time visiting, on my Dad's recommendation. A nice pint, food was absolutely beautiful, as was the service from the lovely Danielle. Will definitely visit again. Highly recommend.

Here is a poem about our meal The burger was wonderful , the pie was too, the service was excellent , many thanks to you!!!! Danielle was awesome!!

I’ll definitely be back with family and friends.

Had a lovely meal here served to us by Chris who was extremely friendly and went out of his way to help us.

We have been for many family meals and have always had a great meal and great service. Shout out to all the staff and to Chris for going the extra mile to make our meal extra special.

We have enjoyed reliable and affordable Summerhouse (Boningale) often over the years but our visit today revealed considerable improvement. The menu remains largely unchanged but the quality of food and presentation has impressively improved. The new hosts deserve great credit and I'm sure potential repeat...

Great to see this establishment has been taken over by new owners, you already can see improvements in decor. Food and drink very reasonably priced and a great atmosphere. Definitely worth a visit!!

What a lovely warm welcome by the new Management in the Summer house. Really impressed with the decor, we will definitely call in again for drinks and food. Carvery looks delicious. Definitely recommend if you’re in Albrighton area.

went here with family, great little find . lovely fresh food at affordable prices .cosy atmosphere and very friendly staff who couldn’t do enough to make our visit enjoyable. will definitely be returning .

A lovely, warm and cosy pub. My partner and I called in for a drink on Saturday afternoon and found Andy and Donna to be very welcoming hosts. A bonus was that the pub is dog friendly, our little Bonnie girl was able to have a drink from the water bowls provided and even little doggie treats from the bar. We will definitely be stopping by again very soon.

Visited the summerhouse yesterday for the carvery. Both the carvery and apple pie was amazing and the service just as good. The staff are very friendly and welcoming. P.S the Christmas decorations are looking fab ! Will be visiting again very soon !

Fantastic place to come with family, staff lovely, friendly and welcoming feel to the place and in a beautiful location. Food was spot on (fresh, home cooked) and will be back again soon.

Went for a family meal for our sons 16th birthday. Service was exemplary and the food first class. We all left with happy faces and full bellies. Can highly recommend. Thank you.

This was our first visit today , we were looking for a pub with a Sunday carvery, a separate child's menu and it had to be dog friendly.I am delighted to say the Summer House ticked every box.The carvery was excellent and the staff were extremely helpful in advising me of my gluten free options.My young grandchildren were delighted with the choices on their own menu, and there is an additional adult menu for those not wanting a carvery.Our dog was also made to feel very welcome.This is a lovely pub with a great atmosphere and some very friendly and helpful staff.I would definitely recommend it.

Great food, was very fresh, staff attentive and a quick service with the bar and carvery, clean and modernised venue. Very busy so would recommend booking in advance. Thank you. X

Excellent food we went for a carvery which is only on a Sunday. Good value for money & the staff are very pleasant. Very enjoyable experience

The restaurant offered a cavery with a vegetarian option, I was given a token with vegetarian cavery written on it which I handed over and was told I couldn't eat the stuffing but everything else was fine only to then find out after I had...

A party of 10 of us called in on way back from a wedding rehearsal. Can’t fault the service or quality of food served. Meals were served quickly and all as ordered. Well done 👍 Would certainly go back.

Arrived here for Sunday carvery with family. Roast potatoes, spouts and yorkshire pudding tasted like they had been cooked from frozen. Spouts were hard and tasteless, the pork was dry. Wouldn't recommend The Summerhouse for the carvery.

My daughter & her 2 friends all aged early 20'S have just had the most awful experience in your pub. They went in for a drink & for some reason were immediately discriminated against for no known reason. They were told they could have 1...

I have visited the Summer House at Bonningale since 1993; until to-day my review would have echoed the excellent reviews seen elsewhere on this page; unfortunately, I fear the Summer House is not the pub it once was. This was my wife's and my first...

Came here with friends, had the steak and strawberries deal, absolutely delicious. Will be back very soon. The men had the light bite London grill ...it was huge! Great Value, service and delicious food.

Booked a table for 4 people as we arrived I’m guessing a new member of staff welcomed us and sat us in the bar as we were 10 mins early we got served drinks and sat waiting on a high table Sitting their we witnessed...

Our first meal out in a long time and we chose The Summer house. Sadly its not had a makeover when it had the chance. Food was nice but surroundings were sad, toilets really need some attention and the room was cold. Really hope they...

Another fantastic visit to a place that's fast becoming one of our favourite places to go, fabulous friendly service and the food was delicious as always

Booked a table, turned up and our name wasn't down. This is the 3rd time they have done this. After getting ready to go out we had to come home for something to eat, will never bother going again, the foods not that brilliant anyway.

We recently had a meal Here although the food was good would not recommend at this time. There was less than one meter between us and other tables and staff did not wear masks

Hadn't been to The Summerhouse for a couple of years but, as it was my birthday and, as we always used to like the meals there, we thought we would give it another try. What a good decision! The food was plenteous, well-cooked and presented...
