The Bull Inn in Shropshire

No change room for the baby if your a man but the staff helped best they could

Great pub with a fantastic atmosphere. A must go place to watch Live music, which is always good at the Bull.

We went here for a bite to eat and a glass of wine on a Saturday lunchtime. It is dog friendly for well behaved dogs which is something we had searched on maps beforehand as we had a dog with us. They did also provide a fresh bowl of water for our dog too. The place had both brightly lit areas as well as more dimly lit tables too. You order drinks from the bar at the front. You order food from by the kitchen area at the side. We ordered 3 of the 'small plates', the brief bites, the pate of the week, the cod goujons, and a portion of chips to share between 2 of us. After ordering we were told they didn't have and brie bites available so we chose to have 2 lots of the cod. I did feel that it would have been helpful to have known what was available that day as some people may have changed their choice from what they have paid for. I had to wait for my daughter to come back from the other bar from ordering drinks to sort the change of choice. The food came fairy quickly was absolutely delicious and very well presented. The wine was really good too, and nicely chilled. We really enjoyed it all, and the atmosphere in the venue too. The pub was quiet when we went in but it became very busy fairy soon after. The pub is situated in a pedestrianised side street in the centre of Shrewsbury. I would definitely visit again.

Performed at an open mic night. The weather didn't stop raining and was miserable but it didn't stop people from coming in and enjoying the night.

Clean rooms. Friendly service and staff. Beer 🍺 🍻 great and a fair price Overall excellent experience

After a long day out Albrecht decided to visit here, despite Bouncers on the door. Live music started. Very pleasant. Had a good pint of Bank's Amber.

Went for a Sunday lunch great food, good sized portions and very quick service

Nice pub although the music was a bit loud considering there were only a few customers in. The big downside was £6.30 for 2 soft drinks, ie a lime and soda plus a lime and lemonade

Yet again great entertainment and staff were excellent and friendly even though very busy got served in reasonable time. Well done to all staff and management.

popped in for lunch and sat outside watching the world go by, the staff were great and the food was spot on. A well kept Town Centre pub, will definitely be returning

Absolutely top notch service, would highly recommend for a great night out with family or friends

We were shopping in Shrewsbury called in here on a whim, the pub was inviting looking and the food looked really good so we decided to have a meal. The food was served quickly and was really tasty however …….. the staff were not welcoming, their attitudes were unreal and quite frankly rude, drinks banged down on the bar, food slapped on the table, not a smile to be had and a squabble behind the bar over someone else’s order, it was quite obvious the girl serving did not want to be at work. Not an inviting atmosphere at all, tension and petulance galore.

Nice clean pub. Polite staff. Good beer garden.

If there is a rating less than a 1 star, it would be my rating tonight. Food and open mic were great but I was really disgusted tonight more than the days I've been in this pub. The Baristas, especially the THREE GIRLS, were not accommodating as ever. They are kinda racist in such a way. I've never felt so humiliated when ordering. They ignore us every time. I said hi to one of the Baristas to make an order but she just left. They also gave us the look on their faces as if we can't afford to buy their drinks. Open mic is as good as always but please mind your staffs. They choose who they serve well. Bull Inn take note of the date today, 24/08/24 so that you'll know who's on between 2300H-2330H. Anyway, we just left the pub. It was really not a good night.

You would have to know where this is or you would miss it. Still a great pub. I do enjoy sitting out the front chilling. I'll defo use again

You enter through the bar. So have a walk through to see where you would like to sit if you want food. Service was quick food hot

Really poor lunch.Ordered lasagne and when the waitress brought it to the table it looked like slop! Cold and only found one small strip of pasta very little Bolognese, mainly oily cheese. Partner ordered burger which was cold.

Great place Friendly staff and entertainment is outstanding.

Paid 2 visits to Bull Inn this week . Very clean, friendly staff , didnt have any food but it looked lovely . Would visit again .

The Bull, located in the town center, is a great place to eat and stay. The pub has a cozy atmosphere and serves delicious home-cooked food. They offer live music on the weekend, adding to the vibrant ambiance. The rooms in the bed and breakfast are comfortable and clean. The staff are friendly and helpful, making sure you have a pleasant visit. Whether you're there for a meal or an overnight stay, The Bull is a wonderful choice.

Had a lovely lunch at the Bull. Very pleasant staff Thank you to Catherine Morris for serving us today.

Our stay at The Bull Inn was perfect, we couldn't of asked for a better stay. The staff were so friendly and welcoming and the rooms we're clean and very comfortable. On the Saturday evening we had a few drinks in the bar and we were served by Morgan. He was such a friendly and polite member of staff, thank you! We will be back.

My favourite place for a good night with mates. Nice area inside with sports on and even live music on occasions, nicer garden area with a decent atmosphere and pool table.

Passing on way back home great pub friendly staff definitely worth a visit

Great pub and amazing staff very welcoming and a grwat atmosphere

Breakfast good, but don't stay in the rooms. It's a major doss hole. Whoever gives a good review must have very low standards.

Do not mix the food and pub up with the accommodation reviews. The first are good but the rooms are dire. The dirtiest smelliest property we have had the miss fortune to staying. Would probably have not stayed but tried to see if alcohol would improve it. With a small amount of money on new carpets and keeping it clean would help tremendously.

Really lovely meal. We had a club sandwich and a cup of tea. All really nice x x

Just stopped in for lunch. Really friendly staff. Food was lovely and lot's of it

Been a few times for various reasons, always a lovely place to go. Super friendly staff, good drinks and prices, live music, outdoor seating with pool table. A go to pub for myself and friends

Good beer garden and customer service

The Bull Inn is a good Marston's pub. There is a good selection of beers, lager and cider, and hand pulled cask conditioned real ales. The cask ale was in excellent condition when I visited. It has a nice modern interior but with an old cosy feel. There is an outside seating area and an extensive food menu.

Stayed one night, they don't do food in the evenings so had to go across the road. Booked what I thought was ensuit but had to go across the landing to my bathroom, curtains to thin light from across the street, spot lights shining through lighting the whole room up,, needs thicker curtains or black out blinds with a pelmit to stopped light shining through the top

Awesome No complaints here . Love the boozer and the people in it . Thank you guys for a great service.

Lovely dog friendly dining. Clean and comfortable. Service excellent, food was hot and tasty. Good size portion, good value for money. Great location. Would eat there again

Clean and comfortable. Dog friendly. Friendly staff. Excellent service. Food lovely. Nice and hot. Would go again.

Great bar with live music on, absolutely bouncing 👌

Lovely Inn, the food we had was plentiful and very good, the beer we had was good.

Went on a Friday night which had a singer and band. Very relaxed place.

Excellent food, good service would highly recomend.

Unfortunately the staff do not understand that certain drinks have certain glasses, ordered a double gin and was served it in a tumbler 🥃 I'm no snob but do expect my gin in a gin balloon, as wine would be in a wine glass and not a pint

Customer service not too good. No peppercorn grinder or balsamic, But.... The chef has to be complimented on his food. We had an amazing Lasagne. It was Sunday and the Roast looked fantastic. Dog friendly. Super Clean. Well worth a visit

Lovely atmosphere, well kept pub, good food at reasonable prices, dog friendly. There's also a lovely looking outdoor seating area for warmer weather. What's not to like!

It is a great place to enjoy yourself and have fun

We only popped in for a drink, but the Sunday lunch looked lovely

Love this place! Great staff, great food (best lasagne ever!) and worth a visit for the live music of an evening.

Good music, good drinks. Had a great time here with my mates.

This hotel is filthy. We had last occupants shower gel still in the shower. There are cobwebs and dust everywhere but worst of all it is freezing in the rooms. Went to speak to staff and was told it was on a timer and would come on at some point. This did not happen and we had to sleep with our coats on top of the bed for extra warmth. Went to have showers in morning and shower was freezing cold. Lovely spot but would not recommend

Called in for a drink. Very good pub good selection of beer. Food looked good. But wasn't eating . But I would go back to try the food

Fabulous pub in the heart of Shrewsbury. Live music with some awesome bands, especially Route 54.

What a great little pub. Lovely and friendly, great food at reasonable prices. Small menu choice but there's enough to satisfy even the most discerning taste. Would highly recommend a visit

Right price for room. Room clean and stylish 👍 Lovely staff, great breakfasts ☕🍽️🍹

Great ensuite room- even had a four poster bed!

Nice pub in the middle of shrewsbury was quiet when we was there but nice pub all the same

GB News showing. Barmaid very apologetic and said this was left on by politically motivated member of staff. Extremist right wing propaganda not for me and my friends. Not drinking there again.

Great place to stay ! Close to all other amenities! And many thanks to Laura for sorting our parking out !!!

Nice, pleasant pub, nice decor. Thought the welcome could be worked on, we were practically the first of a few in and it was very, "down to business," no smile or pleasantries. When we ordered the food from a guy more my own age, that was a vast improvement, think he was the chef? In these times where people are thinking twice about going out, it would have been a 5 star if the bar staff could have smiled. Food was lovely and reasonably priced.

Its all about Wednesday night at the Bull. Talented artists trying there hand at open mic, some real talent here and a pleasant night guaranteed.

Nice pub night for good service

Great atmosphere & great service

Popped in for Sunday lunch.....absolutely beautiful meal.....presentation excellent.....staff really friendly.......recommend to have a meal here

Two women in toilets doing something! Other cubicle had no lock on door! Clearly one woman under the influence of something! Not a good experience! Realise why we’ve don’t go there!!!

Menu seemed to have changed no salad

We truly enjoyed our stay. We were there 7 days and traveled around the area. Laura and Molly made us feel welcome and at home. I will say, Friday and Saturday evenings were very loud due to the live band. However, we knew this going in.

Good food curry, burgers and hanging kebabs were lovely, also a lovely pint . Thank you

Dreadful service. Served people that came in and ordered after us including two friends we were with. Had to ask twice before being told its getting done now!!! Then my friends lasagne was Cold in the middle and when waitress was told no comment was made and she walked away

Lovely service and great food. Stopped over night room comfortable and a great breakfast

Lovely couple of days here, made very welcome, nice clean rooms and a proper breakfast to set us up for the day.

We had a lunch here both my daughter and wife sick after eating 1 forkfull of salad that came with the lasagne, did mention to a member of staff, they were not interested just wanted to clear the plates, will not go back ever. *edit* After being asked to contact them back over 1 week ago no response. Says it all.

We had a wonderful day staff were fabulous nothing was too much trouble

Salad wasn't great , it was grit. No attempt to ameliorate. Been going there for years . Won't go again

Great pub in the town centre. Friendly staff and a large choice of drinks from ales to spirits. Will definitely return.

Outside it has pictures of rooms believe me what you see is not what you get. Corridor to room was a strong odour and dirty carpets. Entering room was a shock not like pictures dust all around edge of carpet. Four poster bed was uncomfortable could not wait to get up and leave. Believe me I stay away from home a lot this was grotty. I could say a lot more but I think ive said enough.

We visited this pub for a 2 night stay as we had a wedding near by. We were given room 1 which had the four poster bed. The mattress was very old and very lumpy. Due to having a bad back, I had to sleep on the quilt to get some comfort. The room had NO natural air flow, making the room stuffy, hot and not nice smelling, the window looked out onto the corridor leading to the rooms! A tower fan was supplied which was no use whatsoever. The bathroom was very smelly, we left the extractor fan on all night to rid the smell but that didn't help. Our room was not cleaned at all during our stay, so no clean cups and saucers for when we returned. There was NO hairdryer. The furniture was very dusty and the carpets not hoovered. Friday and Saturday night had a band playing, until midnight which felt as though they were playing in our room. I honestly wished we never booked this place, but you never know what you're going to get, and other reviews did not help. Good points: the staff were lovely and the cooked breakfast was excellent.

Visited the Bull on 23rd August with my wife as I fancied a Guinness and she fancied a Bailey's Irish cream (50ml measure as stated in the weights and measures act) but as I ordered it the barman said that they served it in 25ml measures per single and said "is that okay?" Seeing as it's only a liquer style drink and 17% vol, I said it wasn't and we walked back out, with the barman saying "Sorry about that guys!". We'd planned to order some food as well and stay for a couple of hours but when you're informed that we'd be only getting half measures who the hell would take up that offer? Im adraid we won't be returning, there's plenty more bars in Shrewsbury who pour the correct measures and don't plan to rip their customers off. Be careful of the Bull Inn folks, you may end up being conned.

Came for some food. Was NOT disappointed!! Brie bites to start…always my favourite! And a good hearty Roast Beef dinner! Filled with all your Sunday roast favourites! Truly delicious! Service was also spot on! Already planning our return!

Just happened to be passing and thought we would pop in for lunch. Selected a roast, and it was at the table within 10 minutes. Lovely and hot and very tasty. Great service, would highly recommend to anyone.

Service was excellent. Friendly staff, food was lovely. Didn't wait very long for food to be served and my burger was amazing! Would definitely recommend although I do feel like it is slightly overpriced at just over £15 for burger and fries.

Relaxed atmosphere, great service

Looking for a dog friendly pub for a bite to eat and this is a great find. We arrived just 10 minutes before the kitchen closed but there was no rushing us in our choices. Standard pub fare menu but quality was great so really good value. Friendly service and water, treats available for the dog. Would happily return if in Shrewsbury again.

Just went for drinks friendly pub

Stayed recently for an overnight business trip. Warmly welcomed on arrival and shown to my room. The hotel is in the town and has no parking provided so it was a walk from a car park to get there. The room was generally clean, however it was a bit dusty around the edges of the room and there was some mould on the bathroom ceiling. It bugs me when I find that in a hotel as it's a quick fix to remove with some spray and shows a lack of effort when it comes to cleaning. Didn't have food there as I was going out for food with friends, however on return they had an open mic night in the bar. The atmosphere was pretty good and we enjoyed a game of pool there. After going to bed, I struggled with the heat. My room didnt have an external window (it looked.into the corridor) so couldn't get any ventilation. Also, the pillar fan in the wardrobe was broken, so had little sleep in the heat. If they addressed the issues above, this would be a good hotel in a great location

Good location....Nice breakfast.

Always a good time when visiting The Bull Inn! Will be back soon

Awesome stay and awesome breakfast thanks guys 🍷

Our room was lovely, clean and spacious. Bed was very comfortable, the location was great for socialising but obviously noisy until the pubs close. Breakfast was not the best but the service was excellent, we would visit again

Great pub. Live music. Went on a Saturday night. Place was buzzin. Definitely go again

Ambiente caratteristico e ben curato. Ci sono diverse sale, una anche nel giardino sul retro del locale. Si può ordinare da bere e cibo direttamente al bar. Il personale è gentile e disponibile.

Nice atmosphere, lovely outside area, good selection of drinks. Friendly staff

It's a good place to listen to live music and have a few drinks

Great atmosphere, staff very accommodating & friendly. Food excellent 👌

Reasonable price for drinks. Live music - great fun.. free entry.nice environment

Quiet on our visit. Deceptively large inside. Old and woody but tastefully updated. Outside drinking area. Real ales on.

First time coming here. Staff and regulars pleasent

Decent food for the price and had a nice band playing which really added to the atmosphere

Super food and service, can't fault it.

Amazing pub, live music was playing, the vibe was great! Not the best prices but overall it was an amazing experience. They even have a pool table ;)

Spent a couple of hours here, the homemade coleslaw was a big hit! we would have enjoyed staying longer but the snow stopped and it was time to go.

Has an outdoor area with a large screen. I used to come here as a student when I was in sixth form. Happy memories. Nice a busy, a proper pub a d has a snooker/pool table out the back too
