The Crown Inn in Shropshire - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Excellent food, excellent service, reasonable price. Have booked again! Thankyou.

Comfy snug, happy knowledgeable staff great non alcoholic choices

How lovely to go to a country pub and get such a warm welcome, great food and atmosphere! Obviously very popular amongst the local community, and no wonder. Lovely lady Tennant with so much personality.

After a beautiful walk around Black Hill, the dog and I decided that I deserved a beer. We popped in here and had a really good pint of Ludlow Best. I can't comment on the food, but it looked excellent. The pub is lovely inside and the landlady(?) was really friendly. Places like this are so important to the fabric of our countryside. Get in there and enjoy it!

Wow what a fantastic pub. Great selection of beer and wine, really friendly atmosphere, Michelle made us feel very welcome. The food here is breathtaking, the fish we had was so fresh and tasty and the chips are to die for. Would definitely recommend but if you want to eat make sure you book.

Had the fish platter to share this afternoon in the dining room and it was lovely - the lady host was also spot on with service and help, Michelle I think she was called. A must try and the chips are famous apparently...... very nice 🙂

Great quality food and nice to have a real ale there too. Very friendly and very good service. Pub itself is great.

My favourite pub in all the west, exceptional food, excellent drinks, attention to quality and detail that goes above and beyond and a dash of comfy quirkiness to boot, I absolutely recommend to anyone passing through the area for food and company that you'll not forget! We recently enjoyed a meal as a family to celebrate an anniversary - we were taken care of and spoilt rotten! Five stars all round.

On holiday in Clunton so dropped in here for a pint. It's a lovely old pub that seems very popular with the locals. I was given an excellent couple of pints of real ale. Very good service from Michelle behind the bar who has a fantastic memory and is very entertaining. They have a really nice dining room and the food we had there was excellent. Thoroughly enjoyed the meal. Compliments to the chef. Parking is just over the road with plenty of space.

On holiday in the area & googled for good places to eat & found The Crown In Clunton nearby . So very glad we found it! Sharing platters for Saturday lunch, so seafood platter & a portion of their baked potato chips. Wow! What a choice. Everything was delicious and there was plenty for both of us. Wish more eateries would do things like this. The staff were friendly and there was a good atmosphere in the small bar area. Can’t speak too highly of this lovely hostelry.

We were staying near Clun for the weekend and booked a table at this lovely pub on Saturday night . The landlady Michelle was so friendly and helpful and made us feel really welcome. Can definitely recommend steak night at the Crown and the most delicious chips. We will definitely be back.

We happen to be in a B&B within a short distance from the the Crown Inn so booked dinner for two nights. What a refreshing change to have a pub that you can really relax in. It has a great atmosphere with lots of friendly local’s who are proud to be a part of this jewel . It’s all down to the wonderful cheeky Michelle who runs her bar like ..well you’ll see for yourself she has personality plus. The food blows the mind by being absolutely different . Chef (Blaine) has a wonderful ability to turn out the most amazing dishes . My favourite being the duck followed by his tantalising milk chocolate cheese cake.. we’ll be back . 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 Chris and Jenny from Dorset.

Always stop off here for a drink or bite to eat ( if not already booked up) after walking in this scenic area. Welcoming hosts and great food.

Absolutely fantastic drinks and meal this evening … the local beer was spot on, the veg and fish dishes were superb, dessert of white chocolate cheesecake was terrific. Do not pass this place without stopping and spending … you won’t regret it.

Had a beautiful roast lamb lunch today. Friendly atmosphere and great service from all staff. Pre booking essential.

Delightful. A very cosy country pub serving a small menu of excellent food at reasonable prices. Service was impeccable. Thoroughly recommended.

Lovely run pub. Friendly staff.

Great staff, didn't book in and they went out of their way to serve us, the food was delicious as well. Well worth a visit

Love this little place. Great food, really well cooked & served. Staff are outstanding and do everything they can to look after you. Dog friendly as well so don't be afraid of bringing the pooches.

Great beers and lovely welcome. Even managed a Spring pint in the garden

Great local pub. Always a warm welcome by Michelle. Very popular, great food, best to book. Thoroughly recommended.

A superb place, great for families 👍

Excellent beer and friendly landlady

Scumptious food, lovely beer and excellent service !

Went here for Sunday lunch. The bar staff were very friendly and welcoming even though it was our first visit. Lunch was probably among the best we have ever had. Good selection of real ales. It is a lovely pub with a great atmosphere and obviously popular with the locals. We will be back!!

Stopped in Clunton at rented property and visited The Crown the day before we left, big mistake, should have gone much earlier in the week. The welcome was amazing as was the beer and the food. The people who live nearby are very fortunate indeed!

Lovely locals pub with plenty of outside seating.

Great pub, went for a meal while caravanning locally, food was excellent as was the service, Michelle was great fun and super friendly and the chef was top notch, you have to try the carrot cake, 5 stars thank you x

A local pub serving excellent, locally sourced, home cooked pub grub!The chips are outstanding! The relaxed local was just what we needed after the long drive down, warm and welcoming.

Excellent lunch, simple food cooked to perfection, chips to die for. Well done. Mike Hitchins, Kenilworth Town Mayor 2017/2018

Excellent scampi and chips and a great pudding too

Amazing! We passed through for a drink and lunch... Was greeted by a lovely women (Sorry didn't catch her name). Service was amazing and the food was cooked to perfection and presented so well! We had chicken & mushroom risotto and sausage & mash with a side of chips... Highly recommended!!!

Lovely village pub. Good food. Great service. Made us feel very welcome. Would definitely go there again.

Excellent roast dinner, they even do a take out! Lovely local 'village owned' country pub with helpful and friendly staff. Dogs welcome. Highly recommended.

Very friendly pub. High quality food and drink. Beautiful interior and a small but pleasant outdoor seating area. Great place to stop while out walking in this underrated (and thus quiet and peaceful) part of england.

Great pub, great food and a great atmosphere. Can't recommend it enough.

It's a shame we can give this place only 5 stars. The best food we have ever eaten, and we have eaten all over the world. The maitre'd, bar maid, chef and locals were all very friendly and welcoming to my wife and I and our 2 kids. Nothing was too much for them. The saying a hidden gem is very often an over-used phrase, but this place certainly is one.

Warm and friendly pub excellent food and service

Superb little pub with exceptional food.

A stunning meal in convivial surroundings. The team was excellent and very welcoming.

Very friendly pub. Seating is outside across the road which gets the sun all day, but they do table service which is quick and friendly. Choice of 3 local ales along with wine gin etc.

A walking group enjoyed a meal here recently Al fresco. Excellent & interesting food selection. Lovely staff, made to feel very welcome. Will certainly return.

Alfresco platter was good. From what I hear of the chef's pedigree, it will be great to eat here once the inside is open.

Fabulous. Service was excellent. Lunch, a shared Veggie Platter, was as good as you are likely to find anywhere. Nice cup of tea and coffee. All this at a very reasonable price. Tip top.

Fantastic country pub. The seafood platter was especially excellent. 8 also recommend the chips and scotch eggs. Beer also excellent.

Fabulous staff and sharing platter.

Lovely village pub, great cask ales, beautifully kept and some amazing bar snacks. We tried the Black pudding scotch eggs, pork pies and salami and all three were superb.

We couldn't go inside but the service, ale and food was excellent

A great pub with a friendly atmosphere.

Just a couple of alfresco drinks in the beer garden and a very nice Thursday takeaway meal to comment on so far, but quality of food and service are very good. Looking forward to be able to have an eat-in meal there at some point.

10/10 for friendliness, service and most definitely the food

Beautiful location, service & hospitality. No problems giving 5*

A friendly and very-COVID-safe lunch stop. Great real cider from Long Mynd cider, pleasant scotch egg and super-local charcuterie provided by Shropshire Salumi. Dining is currently only outside. Lots of open-air tables and three covered tables. Table service only. We felt really welcome and the chair/tables worked well despite the roadside setting. Thank you, Michelle et al!

Nice pub Made to feel very welcome by the landlady Newly constructed timber shelter + a gazebo to protect you from our rather inclement May weather Excellent well kept beers I'm told food is good as well Though not sampled as yet Recommended !

Very friendly but poor selection of draft lager.

Great food great service great place to spend time

Very pleasant and friendly food looked lovely

What a lovely pub and the staff were brilliant. Everyone had to sit outside suetonius Covid but the service was fantastic and so friendly.

Had a delicious takeaway Sunday Lunch for my Mother's birthday. It came in 2 containers & a small pot with gravy in. 1 contained the meat, roast potatoes, roast parsnips & stuffing & the other had the vegetables, a selection of carrots, broccoli & red cabbage. There was plenty of food for 4 people. We were offered a selection of deserts to choose from which came in small individual containers. Highly recommend their Sunday Lunch to take away

Nice local people and good pricing. Under new management and it is owned by a group of locals I'm told. Top location in the sun and good Covid precautions. Just be wary the food portions for the platters are small (if youve had a long walk) and there is a reduced menu. Still think it's the best pub for miles, take your business there. ( they have been badly hit by floods)

Good country pub, didn't try the food but it looked good

Excellent if limited menu, Vegan catered for excellent

Genuinely superb fine food, and Michelle fronting the house. Great pub... go visit!

Had the Haddock and chips. The chips were great but the Haddock was just supermarket frozen. I was expecting premium pub fish and chips for the price, the group we were with had the bloomers which looked amazing.

Friendly. Great beer. Didn't eat so can't comment on food but played pool and kids were welcome. V lovely, happy to recommend. Thumbs up.

This was our first visit and have to say it was really friendly and the food was excellent to the point we booked a table there and then I would recommend this place for food or even quiet drink.

The best piece of beef I have tasted for many a year. Excellent food and and service.

Nice friendly, homely, comfy place! Called in ther while on a walk, we wer a tad dirty, but fully welcomed us into the bar, the real ale hit the spot!

Very good pub with restaurant quality food and service.Will definitely go again.

Excellent food, really friendly new owner, dogs are welcomed

Best beer food and really fantastic landlady much recommended

Nice and friendly and with a well kept local brew. Spot on.

Had a really great Sunday roast today. Beautifully cooked and presented.

Nice local pub a few real ales which are always changing so you have decent selection dog friendly and welcoming

Excellent country pub, great local beers. Attentive and friendly service.

New landlords, had a lovely Shropshire stout, very cosy and the landlady is extremely nice and chatty.

Very friendly welcome at this charming village pub. We stopped here after 2pm in the hope of late lunch and despite not officially serving we were made welcome and sorted out with beer battered cod in a basket with chips which was freshly cooked and very tasty. Recommend.

Friendly and welcoming, great lunch stop

Pub back open with new management at last.

Good pub in a great location. Good range of drinks & welcoming staff.

As we were staying over the Christmas holidays in one of the chalets at the Clun Valley Lodges, only 5 minutes walk away, The Crown became our defacto 'local' for the time we were there. The landlord (Andy) and lady (Della) were affable and welcoming and the general ambience of the place agreeable - helped in no small way by the wood burning fire in the bar. The pub was bought and is now owned by a local consortium after it was threatened with redevelopment after closure in the early 90's. It opened again in 1995 is well patronised by locals, has a phenomenal reputation for food and has featured often in the Good Beer Guide. Warm, welcoming, popular, good food and beer - which really, when you think about it, ticks most of the boxes.

We had the most wonderful family dinner yesterday at The Crown Inn. All the dishes were beautifully cooked and presented, with ample vegetables and potatoes. It was particularly kind of the chef to prepare a delicious vegan nut roast for our son - he was very impressed!!

Half way meeting place for a friend and I, we weren't disappointed . All home cooked something on the menu for everyone. Large portions which is lovely as I was very hungry. There was a warm welcome to the cosy bar, would have liked to eat in the bar as much more atmosphere and warmer than the restaurant. Will definitely return. Thank you
