The Kangaroo in Shropshire

Staying local so booked in for Sunday Lunch today. Certainly not disappointed, we had an amazing Sunday roast dinner beef and pork. Really well presented with side dishes of wonderful fresh vegetables, cabbage carrots and beans, you rarely get fresh vegetables now a days. We also had gorgeous Dauphinoise potatoes. We shared a huge Aston Mess their take on Eaton mess, so much fruit and cream yummy. The couple running the pub are so very nice, sad that it was so quiet but guess late in season. We did go back later for their Open Mike evening which was very well attended such a great community atmosphere. We will definitely be back and wish you both good things. P.S. Thank you for finding my bracelet too.

3 families including 8 kids and were still made to feel really welcome. Lovely roast dinner and plenty of it, with good beer to boot. Highly recommend for anyone in the area.

Great Sunday lunch, loads of meat, beautiful veg and superb pudding. Beer and wine was ace too. Log burner was icing on the cake. Thank you to lovely staff. Stayed at wayside campsite, very good with lovely views and can walk to pub though road is a bit iffy as no path. Bar on site open some nights.

We were staying nearby so decided to have a meal out. Called in and were welcomed by the manager. We ordered fish, chips and choice of peas. The meals were very generous and perfectly cooked. The pub had a friendly atmosphere and a good selection of table games for use in the pub and a neat beer garden to rear. A lovely little find.

This lovely traditional pub was just up from our campsite and we visited Easter Sunday for a roast lunch. The staff were super friendly and welcoming and the roast beef was very tasty and just the right size. We also had desserts and the cheesecake was divine. Would definitely recommend this dog friendly pub.

Great pub. Good choice of ales. Very friendly staff and locals. The landlady even knows a bloke called clive with a pet elephant! What more would you want from a pub?

Delightful beer garden, filled with the sound of twittering birds! The perfect place to spend a sunny afternoon.Excellent cider (Robinsons of Tenbury) and well kept local ale.We experienced a very friendly service and felt at home amongst the locals, and visitors from the nearby campsite (wayside) just a short stroll away. Good compliance with covid regulations - well spaced seating, easy to book in on their website in advance, very clean facilities. Looking forward to returning when we can sit inside/ try out a meal.

Fabulous food, lovely log fire, great hospitality would definitely recommend and call again Christina Cotterill

After seeing some of the negative reviews wasn't sure what we were letting ourselves in for.Online booking, simple and no problem. Turned up to a friendly reception and were told the latest covid rules, and shown track and trace info and given hand gel before being shown to our table.Great beer, good wine, excellent food all served by the friendly couple who were attentive to our every need. Log burner burning nicely to keep the room warm and cosy.We had a great time and would definitely return

We gave it a try couldnt find where to book on line so rang, answered phone but carnt book lol. Told us where to book on line. So we did, beer nice but omg i was sat in hat polo neck jumper and fleece, still cold as was sat at a table with a piece of board part blocking store, i might as well have sat outside. Thereaea luvely log burner off, about as much life as a tramps vest lol. Just shut if tou dont want people in

Would have liked to review this place but due to the appalling service and attitude all I can say it left me hopping mad, I telephoned to try to book for 11 people and was told to use the web site, tried this and it would only allow bookings of six people. I recontacted and queried this and asked if I could book two tables for six people, I was told that it shouldn’t be a problem but the manager would ring back in a short while, no contact from the manager I telephoned again in case I had missed a call, they said they had not called me. A further hour passed and I called again the same bloke answered, he said he had to ask the manager again the answer was a straight no. I tried ringing a few other establishments and they were all booked, I asked when they became fully booked and was told during that evening!!! If the manager of the Kangaroo rang when said we may have had a chance elsewhere. We are now left with fish and chips The kangaroo could well have had upwards of £250 in their pouch after we had purchased food wine and beer, instead the local chippy will have a bumper evening

Don't bother calling to check anything or make a booking - you will be told you're an idiot for not studying their website and that they will not cater for you.

We have just visited this pub as a couple of families with small children. We felt very very welcome everything was so organised and clean with super covid measures. We had drinks and snacks which were fabulous and service was amazing. Please book and visit this pub.

Wonderful meal last night. Sea Bream was superb and cooked to perfection. Cider, as usual, a beautiful drink. Doing a great job and sooo friendly and helpful.

This pub served the best Sunday lunch I have had in many years. Add to that the fact that the prices are very reasonable, I 100% recommend it. The meat was very tender and, because I didn't want crackling, I was offered what turned out to be the best Yorkshire pudding I have tasted. The selection of vegetables and presentation overall was very attractive as well as tasting delicious. The chef also offered to make me a special dessert which, unfortunately, I had to refuse as I had already eaten more than enough!! The service was friendly and swift. I don't live in the area which is a shame as I'd love to eat there regularly! Highly recommend... Do try!

Excellent Sunday lunch, really tender beef. All very attractively presented. Loved having vegetables and gravy separate and not on plate,brilliant array of different vegatables. Trifle we had for dessert was largest we have had anywhere and was lovely. Enjoyed the real ales on offer too. Staff friendly and great to go back to a pub I used to frequent when I lived locally and to still find it was a great village pub.

We called in after a very wet walk and they were so welcoming. We had the homemade soup to warm us up and it was delicious! Thoroughly recommended 😀

Great food and very friendly staff. Also loved the fact the chef cooked a different meal for somebody who does not eat steak and it was a steak night. Food is cooked fresh and presented beautifully. One of our favourite places to eat and takes friends

Myself and a friend visited The Kangaroo Inn, for one of our monthly catch-ups and we weren't disappointedWe were greeted by the friendly landlords, chef and localsMy friend, interested in history was in his element looking at the various pictures on the walls showing the history of the pub, village and the estate that it belonged toWe ordered our food and sat back for a chat. Not long after we were presented with two great looking main courses, which were as equally tasty, great quality and valueThe chef was totally accommodating to making a few minor changes to one of the meals, when we ordered and the waiting on staff were very attentive and friendlyWe had a great meal, in a great, friendly pub. I would definitely recommend to others

We called in on the off chance of food after a day out. The chef was very accommodating despite having finished cooking. We had the most amazing fish pie and a rib eye steak. Everyone was so friendly and welcoming and we can’t wait to return. Thank you to allAt the Kangaroo. Wish it was on our doorstep! What a great local to have !

now,i generally love pubs,but this one proved to be the most unfriendly i have set foot in for a long time.a dark haired woman was most unpleasant and not at all welcoming.We chose not to use the pub again in our week stay in the neighbourhood.

Really really good Sunday lunch and great service! Atmosphere was really friendly and chilled! Staying in the area for a week and will definitely pop back again for food!

Fabulous food and excellent friendly hospitality and welcome. We had been out all day and called in for food. We could not have wished for more as the food was great and so was the service. Thank you and we will look forward to passing by again soon.

Excellent food but why!!!!! If you arrive before other diners do others get severed first? If you order and the. Take your seat but diner who arrive after you still get served first?!

Had a lovely meal here last Friday night. Very busy but had great service from our smiley young waiter. It was steak night which was great for 3 of us but not much for a vegetarian, the chef came out and asked whether I liked linguine with asparagus,mushrooms,cream and garlic bread, it was one of the best meals I’ve had out in long time. Good value as well, 2 course meals and drinks for 4 came to under £98. Thoroughly recommend.

Visited for a family meal Friday 6th September there were 7 of us and we really enjoyed it!! The starters were gorgeous and the mains were beautiful. It was steak night so most of us had steak and sauces which were lovely. The waiter that night was very attentive and really looked after us! Definitely made our experience. Cannot express how good the food was!! Definitely will come back again even if it’s an hour away from me, lovely lovely pub!

Highly recommend this restaurant, nothing was to much trouble for us, the steak was to die for, perfectly cooked, superb real chips and it was hot, the linguine was cooked to perfection I was even asked what i would like in it, it was very tasty there was enough prawns and they were juicy and not over cooked. Well the desserts were amazing freshly made sherry trifle and ice cream with strawberry sauce. We would certainly recommend this pub and restaurant.

We ordered a steak which was beautiful it came out first then after 2 minutes the sauce came out,we had nearly finished our steak before the chips arrived.The barmaid very rude because our dog cocked his leg up we were then told we had to sit outside. I thought this was a dog friendly pub, any dog owner knows that sometimes dogs do this on new territory.

Superb great all around,have to stop in if passing by,selection of ales,ciders tea and much more☺☺☺☺☺☺☺☺☺☺☺☺☺

Visited for fish and chip special evening to give it a try. Excellent, well cooked meal, real chips. Well kept ale and warm friendly service. The pub had been recommended to us, we will pass on the recommendation. Just what you need in a local.

Booked this as staying in local campsite. What a find ... Lovely pub with good atmosphere, pool table, great food and lovely lady behind the bar. All good if in doubt visit.

Had a nice enough meal here while staying in the area. The staff were very friendly and chatty. We had the fish and chips which was fine. It wasn’t cod but it did say on the menu “a fillet of fish” so that was our misunderstanding not the restaurants. Everything was fine just average food.

We visited the Kangaroo Inn on steak night and were not disappointed. I ordered a fillet steak cooked 'blue' and it was perfect. I don't usually order this whilst out as it is usually overcooked, but plucked up the courage having read other reviews on Trip Advisor!!

We visited the pub for two consecutive nights while stopping at Wayside camping site,a 10 minute walk away..The first night was fish night and the size and taste of the fish was exceptional,even better than the seaside restaurant we visited two days earlier in Tenby South Wales.Night two was even better as there was a full menu choice available,my wife opted for the steak which was huge and well presented,but tasted even better.I opted for the rib eye steak pie which are made to order so you do have to wait a short time,but chef comes to you and keeps you informed and upon presentation and tasting the short wait is quickly forgotten.I think it was one of the nicest meals I have ever had and due to it being our anniversary,I was more than happy with the experience of visiting the Kangaroo Inn...I will make the point of visiting again whenever I am in the area hopefully on a Friday when it is a steak night...5 stars to chef and barperson for a nice friendly atmosphere and an enjoyable visit.

We visited for Sunday lunch with our family who travelled from Portsmouth to visit us and found the food to be absolutely outstanding. The chef is extremely competent, accommodating and even took our order himself! Very attentive staff, beautiful, traditional food with a variety of choice. We all had something different and each plate was beautifully presented and absolutely divine. The veg was perfectly cooked and presented to the table on a separate serving platter for us to choose for ourselves (cauliflower cheese was mouthwatering!} The sticky toffee pudding is also highly recommended and we will most definitely be back again soon.

Had a fabulous Sunday lunch, very traditional, all the trimmings and much more, choice of veg was “wow”. The pub itself is very British, good selection of beers. We chose to eat in the restaurant area which by contrast was more cosmopolitan. The service was seriously good, the chef a great character and the waiter was engaging.The quality of food was seriously good, almost too much to eat but only lost.a definite must, we were strangers to the pub but made to feel very welcome

We stayed at wayside campsite for the weekend,the kangaroo inn is about 0.3 mile from the campsite.lovely small village pub,friendly staff,great selection of gins!.the food was amazing I had the fillet steak! And the sticky toffee pudding was the best I’ve tasted! Will definitely return

Exactly how a local villlage pub should be, warm, friendly, inviting, full of character, welcoming staff, excellent beer and amazing food. With a beer garden to boot :)

Visited with friends to experience the Steak Night. We were not disappointed, excellent meal.Very attentive chef,very obliging with our requests.Just the right quantities of steak, mushrooms,tomatoes & " proper" chips. Battered onion ring stack served as our shared starter. Thoroughly recommend for a lovely meal

We had a large function here for family and friends and were made to feel most welcome. The place was warm and well laid out. The chef attended to all our requirements in a friendly and courteous way and the whole experience was much better than expected. Thankyou!

This our local pub for the next few months as we are renting nearby, whilst our house purchase goes through. There are only plus points to this pub. There is no jukebox, no fruit machines and no jukebox. All plus points for me. What it has is atmosphere, a good selection of real ale, excellent food cooked fresh by a very competent chef, who excels at good quality pub grub. None of this arty, farty, nouvelle cuisine, where you still feel hungry after you've eaten. Add to this a friendly and welcoming landlady in Michelle, who has been there years and frankly you have a place you want to go back to. A visit is highly recommended.

Me and my partner just popped in for a bit to eat but sadly the owners are not child friendly, we walked in and all was ok we said we would like a table for me and my partner and son who is 2 years old. they didn’t offer the basics like high chair or even a changing unit. Because I didn’t know this I asked and was told we don’t have and you would have to go else we’re I must admit I was shocked !! Never have I even been sent away because they don’t have a high chair or changing units and I will never return and I will tell load s of our friends and family’s the same

We have just called in to the pub and ordered a meal. The chef personally came to us and was lovely he said every thing was cooked from fresh he tgen went to the bar to get tge beer to make our beer batter fish . We had home made chips and home made tarta sauce.... not the packet stuff you can never open. We can honestly say it was one of the best meals we have had . My husband had2 fantastic pints of real ale . We will return soon x

Visit for a family birthday meal. Can’t fault the food lovely meal, excellent restaurant service & a personal chef visit. Very accomadating & good value for money. The pub itself is a little lacking in atmosphere & seems very dark but would recommend for eating.

What a fantastic little country pub. Michelle has owned and run it for the last 20 years and is the perfect host to her guests. The Sunday roast was excellent with a selection of 10 YES 10 !!! Different vegetables all perfectly cooked with a massive homemade Yorkshire pudding on the side and a steaming hot boat of gravy. Could not fit in a pudding but will on our next visit. If you like a real Sunday roast this is the place to go.

the Kangaroo is a nice little pub the owners are very nice and welcoming.The owners are very friendly it’s a tradional family pub ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

My husband and I have had a fab few days at the wayside campsite up the road and decided to wander down to this little pub. Definitely worth the visit! (The walk down from the campsite has no path)

We stayed close by and enjoyed a couple of evenings here. We had some excellent food here and the staff had been really helpful to find us space and food without booking on what looked a busy Sunday afternoon. A welcoming spot to enjoy a drink after walks exploring the area with our three dogs. We could have sat inside or outside with them. Will definitely visit again.

We travelled up to north wales for the resent bank holiday weekend in our motorhome .

We visit the Kangaroo Inn every August bank holiday to join them for their annual beer festival. The beers are always fabulous, the atmosphere friendly and the live music entertaining but this year there is an added bonus. The Kangaroo has a new chef! We decided we would give it a go, we've only ever eaten at their beer festival outdoor BBQ before and never been too impressed. We ate in their small restaurant area and the food was fantastic. That encouraged us to give the outdoor BBQ another try and this provided a good range of fabulous quality, delicious food.

Came out for a drive, stopped for snack.

Visited on a Friday evening for a meal, the place was not busy at all, with just one other table ordering food at the same time as us, and a few (presumed) regulars propping up the bar. The atmosphere was good nevertheless and the service very friendly. I had a burger which was very nice although the bread, like many burger buns, was a bit too crumbly. My partner had a steak and said the sauce wasn't quite warmed through so he didn't enjoy it as much as he might have otherwise, but he liked his Ludlow Gold beer. If I lived in the area I'd be happy to have this as my local and probably make good use of the pool table.

We visited while on holiday, staying at the near by Wayside Campsite. A really nice village pub. there are two bar areas, and a pool table room. The Ales are kept well, the service is friendly, the locals too The Kangaroo Inn is named after a ship, The S.S. Kangaroo 1859 if you want to know why, then visit. Would I visit again YES.

Called here yesterday as part of a Hen Party and had a lovely time, though our stay was short. Although only one person behind the bar, she was friendly, quick and efficient. Great beer. Locals had a brill sense of humour too!! Loved it.

Pub tradicional con buen ambiente. Perros.

Caminamos una corta distancia de un camping local en una velada encantadora. El pub tiene carácter, y un agradable jardín en el exterior donde nos relajamos con una cerveza o dos. No comer, así que no puedo comentar sobre la comida, pero nos hicieron sentir bienvenidos y disfrutamos de los alrededores.

Attended a bbq here with two others, initially had belly of pork x 3, hardly any meat on the belly of pork due to the amount of fat, accompanied with pasta and potato salad, pasta was slimy and tasted vinegary. As me and my partner were hungry we left most of the pork and pasta and reordered a burger and Cumberland sausage with potato salad only, burger was ok but dry as no onions or salad to accompany the burger, Cumberland sausage was also served in a dry roll approximately twice the size of the sausage. Worst food I have ever had won't be eating here again.

The bar staff were friendly and welcoming, the beer was pretty good (three local-ish beers on tap), but the food was really quite bad - overcooked burgers in fridge-cold buns with raw onion and a side serving of limp, slimy chips.

A nice place to have a drink, a good selection of real ale, you are made very welcome by the staff and local customers. Do.gs are also made very welcome

This pub has been run in the past by two very successful owners and had a "buzz" factor, The food is reasonable but not fantastic, other local restaurants fairing better, yet the prices are similar. This pub has great potential with a better dress image from the owner/staff - the day of scruffy jeans has gone.

Called in for Sunday lunch, we were the only ones in the restaurant. There was no Sunday lunch so we went for steak it was humming

As we were looking for a pub which did a Sunday roast we decided to stop here.After ordering our drinks we then decided to sit in the pleasant dining area.After a short wait our lunch arrived.I have to say that this was the worst Sunday roast I have ever had.The vegetables,which were all thrown together in a large bowl were overcooked without any flavour.Portions were small,plates cold and the knives blunt.Very poor value for money.

Good beer, has its own beer festival and is part of the Clun beer festival in October. Has live music certain nights, and a garden to sit out in. Is dog friendly.

Having arrived, the menu looked great and the restaurant was lovely. Then the food arrived...Small portions, poor quality and very disappointing.

having been here on and off for years, this is the best pub for a true village feel for miles . see you soon . Gavin and wife
