The Old Three Pigeons in Shropshire

This olde quaint pub/ restaurant is impeccably run by Sean and Tasha.The hospitality shown by Tasha was both welcoming and warm . Service was prompt, and the food was fabulously delicious, Sean was working in the kitchen, obviously the mystro chef. This couple work hard and will be successful without a doubt.

This pub was such a delightful find! Independently run by a young couple who have got it just right. Friendly and accommodating welcome. (We booked ahead as we had dogs), a lovely menu and all beautifully cooked with love! I had been looking for somewhere near Shrewsbury to break up our journey and stop for lunch. There is also a great walk for the dogs across the road from the pub.

An excellent pie of the day. Delicious lunch, friendly service and a warm welcoming atmosphere. And perfect for a walk around Nesscliffe country park.

We were looking for a quality lunch while driving across the country to our next hotel during vacation. The pub is ideally located close to the A5 which makes it convenient. We got in and were seated immediately, and were greeted warmly by a wonderful bar manager. They operate a cook to order kitchen with fresh ingredients, so the food does not come out of packets. My wife has considerable food allergies, which they dealt with extremely well (a good back and forth on options and what would be possible). The food was served in good time, and was extremely tasty. All in all, a very pleasant experience and fantastic customer service. Thank you!

5/5 Visited this family run pub three times now this month. Every time we visit it’s the same, great welcome from whatever staff are on duty. The husband and wife team go out of their way to provide attentive table service without being pushy. The lasagna is the best I’ve ever tasted. Cooked by the owner it’s so meaty, just melts in the mouth. Sunday lunch is plentiful with some different vegetables than normal, good value for money too

Lovely atmosphere, great food and helpful, friendly staff. We went for a birthday lunch, and had a thoroughly enjoyable afternoon. We will return!

We’ve been coming here for dinner after a day out walking in Snowdonia for over 20 years. Always a warm welcome excellent beer and good food.

We were delighted to stop here for lunch, and, being very dog friendly inside and out, was very welcoming, Staff and food was perfect, Would recommend to anyone. Second visit since I was at Shrewsbury School 60 years ago ! Hope to return soon

Fab food, amazing staff, comfortable setting, good choices on the menu. Nice garden. We had Sunday lunch, I had lamb, partner had duck.

Booked in for ten osf us at 12.30 for Sunday Lunch, good choice of starters but the best was the choice of meats on main course, i think between us we had all the roasts, i chose Lamb and was not disappointed, Staff were attentive and helpful.Thank you😊

Beautiful location lovely setting. Quaint country pub with amazing food. We were a table of six - lunch time menu - highly recommend the flat breads and the Mexican chicken burger 🍔 Great friendly service with a good gin selection - we will be returning on our next visit to the area

We stopped for lunch on the way home and both ordered the burgers one steak burger and one chicken burger. Both were excellent well cooked and with a fresh salad. The taste and quality were second to none. Great atmosphere and very relaxing.

Absolutely loved this place ! The hosts were amazing , customer service brilliant and the food was so delicious! The majority of my family are either vegetarian or vegan and the choice was lovely . Portions were huge and we left with very full belly’s ! Also the presentation of the dishes was great 😊 We are going back again in a few days on our return journey back home ♥️♥️

What a lovely Inn, with great food and fantastic staff. Wife and I visited for Dinner 3 times whilst away on a weeks holiday. The owners could not be more helpful and friendly and all the staff were attentive and nice. Best battered fish we have ever had and the Beef Brisket was wonderful. Would be happy to return anytime.

Beautiful place, wonderful food, friendly service and prices are very reasonable. We weren’t rushed and were very well looked after.

Highly recommend a visit to this old pub. Interior is lovely, so much choice on the menu, food was delicious and service was pleasant and attentive without being intrusive. I went for lunch with friends and will be back again very soon.

Stayed here for a couple of nights and it's impossible to get any sleep as all you can hear is music all night very disrespectful not happy at all

One of the best pub meals I've ever tasted in a lovely friendly bar. Wonderful menu and beautifully prepared food. We were lucky to get a table as we went in early evening. Would advise booking if you want to be certain. Really good value price wise, in fact I would happily have paid more. Top quality food.

What a gem of a country pub we just chanced upon. We were met by a friendly welcome by the owner who personally showed us to our (dog friendly) table which we hadn’t booked. She told us the specials and we were quickly asked for our drinks orders then our food choices. The menu is superb and all cooked from fresh. No microwaves in the kitchen I’m sure. The owner was proud to share that it is a generational family run business and her husband is the chef and they are all immensely proud of the food and service that they provide. Bravo to you all and thank you for a super lunch

Excellent Sunday roast. Beef was succulent , plenty of veg and all very tasty. Others in the party had other meals all equally good. Served piping hot by friendly staff. Desserts sounded lovely too but just too full....another time. Highly recommend

We had a almost 2yr old and a 7yr old. They had plenty to choose from and both ate almost everything on there plates. Me and my partner had starters and a main. We enjoyed it all!. I can honestly say the pie was the best I've ever had, I normally order pies when I go to pubs so I've had alot and it really was the best!. The staff were very friendly and always checked on us to see.if we was happy. If we are ever in the area again we will definitely be eating here again.

Another gorgeous culinary experience to celebrate a birthday. Beautiful food, friendly staff, attentive but not intrusive service. Great value for money

Great food and excellent choice for vegan and vegetarians. We were taken to our table on arrival and the service was excellent throughout the evening. Will definitely be going back again soon!

Great for family celebrations or just a great meal out. I booked a table on midweek lunchtime for two. This is the first time we have eaten here and we were not disappointed. The food was cooked to perfection and staff were very friendly. A lovely building with great atmosphere, we look forward to returning to try more of the amazing menu selection.

Great service and good food from a. Fantastic couple who deserve to go far , good menu with fantastic beers and reasonable priced , been twice in the last month and will return soon

Third generation-owned pub. The food was very good and the service and waiting/bar staff was very pleasant and welcoming. We went on a Wednesday and the restaurant was very quiet but nevertheless had a warm feel. I had a smaller meal to leave room for dessert but it was still enough to satisfy me and I didn’t have room for dessert. Hubby had the apple and raspberry crumble and custard, which was huge and delicious. Will definitely go again.

The menu was a great mix of traditional and modern. We had duck with dauphinois and a green Thai curry with monkfish, prawns and mussels. Both were delicious. Starters and desserts were really nice too. Pub was cosy and nice atmosphere. The prices were really reasonable. Wouldn’t hesitate to strongly recommend.

Visited for Sunday lunch today and it was excellent. Great service, lovely atmosphere and the best Sunday lunch we have had for many years. Well done to all involved!

Lovely Sunday lunch fantastic Yorkshire pudding will definitely be going back to try the rest of the menu can be busy so best to book which is a good sign we booked online very easy process , team are friendly also dogs are allowed in the bar area which I didn’t realise else I’ve have taken our dog with us

The best steak I've ever eaten! I'm still boring my family about how tasty this was! As always, a great night at the pigeons, this time with friends, gorgeous pub with the most welcoming feel, service great as usual, really attentive, professional and all round...

Used to visit on our many trips to North Wales before we moved there Tonight we were returning home and decided to revisit for a meal and we were not disappointed We were told it was still in the same family snd it’s still brilliant 💕💕

This was a really enjoyable meal in a great setting. The pub is old and characterful with exposed beams and several small dining areas - we sat in the lower dining area with a log burner - very cosy after a stroll in the brisk...

What a beautiful stop off for lunch! Had a beautiful walk around Attingham Park this morning then stopped at the Three Pigeons on the way home with our two dogs.Lovely pint out the back in the sunshine followed by a seat in the cosy bar...

Went here for dinner last night and was superb! Not just the delicious food, but the service was amazing and all staff were very helpful and made sure we were happy at all times. Atmosphere was great and it wasn’t too loud, definitely recommend and...

! 20:00 table booked for my birthday, our first meal out after having our (first) baby. We rocked up at 19:55 which is pretty good going considering we are late 95% of the time. Offered a drink and straight to the table, good start. Look...

We went for a Sunday roast with the family. Party of 3 adults and 2 grandchildren. Great selection of beers ( I do love the guest bitters) lovely warm and welcoming atmosphere greeted us we had a quick drink in the bar before being shown...

We were a large party that have visited on several occasions, but we will not be returning. The place has a great menu, it’s just a shame that the quality of the food and service doesn’t match! We ordered a variety of meals, one of...

Had a great meal with friends. They were late so I had a beer and a few snacks before they arrived - the staff were really flexible and cool with the fact that everyone turned up at different times. the food was excellent - I...

We had a table of 19 for our Christmas party Between us we had a mixed bag of starters mains and puddings. Everyone thoroughly enjoyed their meals - not one complaint!!! Happy atmosphere. Happy attentive staff Great night out

Absolutely lovely inside, warm and cosy. We sat in the bar for lunch as it is dogs friendly. Lunch was delicious, service was excellent, couldn’t have asked for more.

Really friendly staff, lovely food and dog friendly. Would definitely recommend this brilliant pub😊

This venue is great for families, friends and socialising. The bar is well stocked and the staff friendly. Usually. Unfortunately tonight I was served a bowl of nachos that had spent a little too long under the grill . I asked for a replacement, but...

Atmosphere was lovely. Staff greeted us straight away and couldn’t be more friendly. The food was just amazing! I wish I had taken pictures as it looked as wonderful as it tasted. I will definitely be coming back and recommending to friends and family. Thanks...

Just been here for Sunday lunch and was spot on! Staff couldn’t be more polite and helpful. Have been here before for food and always very pleased.

We used to come here many years ago and always had a good experience. This time was different. We waited 55 minutes for our food which was disappointing when it finally arrived. I asked for well- done beef which came very pink and so had...

We hadn't been to the 3 Pigeons for many years so decided to meet friends for Sunday lunch after a long walk. Greeted by lovely friendly staff and dined in the restaurant area. The food choice was plentiful and delicious. The atmosphere was relaxed and friendly and the girls on duty were absolutely fab. Definitely come again soon!

The menu is varied, both meals we had were cooked to perfection and I do not use that word lightly. Nice setting, had a thoroughly enjoyable evening

Met up here with family a couple of times as it is just of the A5. Quality of food is excellent especially the steaks and sauces. Fantastic value for money and great to have decent size steak (12 oz). Lovely atmosphere and staff were great.

"The Place For Pies" Old Three Pigeons Nesscliffe “The Place For Pies” Having had a lovely walk around the Cliffe at Nesscliffe and feeling somewhat peckish we called into the Three Pigeons where we were instantly made welcome by Tasha, who made us aware of the menu and that the Chef had just added a list of pies to the Autumn specials! There was a wide range including Lamb, Beef and a Vegetarian option. Tasha sealed the deal when she showed us the pictures of the pies which looked like they were straight from a TV Chefs kitchen. Unable to resist we both decided to try the Lamb & Vegetarian options. Now I have had many a pie in my lifetime however it is hard to imagine anyone, anywhere, making a pie better than those that Sean had presented , both pies were perfection in their own way, the lamb pie was shimmering with golden pastry with the end of the shank methodically standing to attention through the centre. On tucking into the pie it was brimming with succulent meat and just enough veggie juices. The vegetarian version was also presented with same care and pride and looked absolutely fabulous in its golden pastry with its crimped top served with creamed potatoes, tender stem broccoli, carrots and of course vegetarian gravy. We enjoyed our meals so much that we have already planned our next visit. Ray & Jan

Catered very well for large table of ten, including children. Good menu choice and, children's choices very good. Nice touch with free Icecream for children

The food was delicious. Really well presented. The staff were helpful and friendly. I will definitely be booking again very soon.

The service was exceptional. Nothing too much trouble. Food was cooked to perfection and very generous portions Variety of guest beers Great value for money

This restaurant is perfect for Families and bigger groups.Very friendly staff and good service.it is a family run business and the current owners strive to provide an excellent service..we definitely will return to this venue

We were a party of 19 booked for Sunday lunch. Fabulous home cooked food, generous portions (see attached photo of my starter halloumi fries) and great attentive service. Would definitely recommend.

After 72 years, my wife and I have had a few! It was a new presentation built on sourdough bread and came with wonderful chips. Cask beer and Rumanian white wine really good too. This was our second visit, and we can only comment on...

Half of the meat of one of the three of us was inedible. The other half and what we other two guests had was lovely. Sucah a shame s otherwise it was a lovely evening.

Really enjoyed our meal, service was pretty good and overall reasonably priced . My husband had the steak which he said was very good and my dad had the duck which also looked lovely . There was a young lady who served us who really...

Never failed to deliver on previous visits but not impressed at recent visit with friends . Ordered garlic ciabatta with mozzarella- I received what looked like cheese on toast (weird consistency melted orange cheese with chilli) main course was mediocre- limp salad , no dressing...

Dropped in here for a quick pint. The setting has been well refurbished to keep period features. Great atmosphere and busy. Stonehouse cask on tap as well as a good range of drinks. The bar manger (small blonde) was very rude to other members of...

We only had the lunch menu, but the steak was so perfectly cooked it could have been twice the price. Lovely to visit a place after 30 and 45 years respectively and not be disappointed! Also very clean, comfortable and welcoming.

We eat out often and I rarely write reviews but the Monkfish Penang Curry I had here last night was outstanding! We went with friends visiting from Berkshire and they were really impressed with the standard of the food. The staff are consistently friendly and...

Came here in May with a large family party. Good selection of beers. Service was excellent and food was nice. A few items unavailable on the menu but staff members informed us beforehand

Daylight robbery! 2 adults 1 child. Has 3 roasts, 2 puddings and 6 drinks. £85. Would have been £95 but I sent my cheeseboard back as it was stale. That said the meals were otherwise good. But very over priced. Even started charging for side...

We have been for a Sunday lunch before and it was amazing so decided to take my sister for her birthday. It was disappointing today! Beef was very tough and the yorkshires were too burnt! Also, considering it was quiet, service was slow. Sorry guys...

Popped in after an appointment at Oswestry Hospital on way home after a recommendation from a friend. We both had the fish & chips, beautiful white fish perfectly cooked wrapped in crispy tempura batter perfect. Followed by baked salted caramel cheese cake & cream -...

On a flying visit to the UK from France. We were traveling south and looked for a pub Sunday lunch and stumbled upon the three pigeons. We are so glad we did. The staff were amazing despite being walk ins, you found us a perfect...

Sunday lunch has gone down hill. Used to be the best in Shropshire. Think the chef must have changed as everything is very oily and unpleasant. The Sunday lunch used to be really hot with mashed potato, lovely crunchy roasts and a side of vegetables....

Absolutely beautiful from beginning to end. Service was great, Portion sizes were huge, so extremely good value for money. Would highly recommend!

We have had a lovely evening , bar staff very welcoming on our arrival and a really polite and attentive waitress too, our starter arrived swiftly and was very tasty , main course just as delicious - so much to choose from on the menu...

Many tables were empty in the restaurant and bar however we were sat at a table that was crammed in to a small area where I was unable to pull out the chair to sit on as there were people sitting at another table too...

This is a great place to have a meal the food is awesome staff very friendly and helpful plus you can bring your dogs too great friendly pub will recommend to friends and family

On a sunny Saturday at the start of half term we had struggled to find somewhere for lunch during a long journey. Having been turned away from a lot of places, I phoned ahead to this place and was greeted very cheerfully by a lovely...

Outstanding service catering for very specific dietary requirements for 1 member of our party. Above and beyond the call. Superb food all round friendly and welcoming staff. Excellent !! We will be going back !!

This was our 2nd stay at the b and b and the room is stunning. The staff are so professional and friendly. The food is al la carte but so so reasonably priced, and is utterly stunning. The atmosphere in the pub was brilliant and...

2nd visit for all 4 of us after many years. Decor and atmosphere great! On arrival, our booking/table on the computer had aptly already been checked in and food already ordered - how odd! Lovely, spacious large table for the 4 of us. All the...

Had a lovely leisurely cosy lunch with my mom, followed by a delicious apple pie. The ladies were lovely and checked on us. Great for a girls catch up.

Had an amazing lunch. The steak ciabatta was cooked to perfection, crispy chips and fresh salad. Followed by homemade crumble. Accompanied by a very good Sauvignon. Service is impeccable. The pub ahead a lovely fresh ambiance. Will be a regular without any doubt - highly...

pre booked our table but not the food looked online at the menu pleased with the price & selection on arrival price was higher & not a drink included but I pointed this out to the waitress who did actually include a glass of prosecco...

Reserved a table for Sunday lunch, arrived early so we could have pre lunch drinks. Bar area was quiet and there seemed no rush to seat us at our table. After waiting 20 minutes past the original time we asked if we could be shown...

This was our third visit to the Three Pigeons and sadly probably our last. We had recommended it to our friends and met up for our Christmas lunch meet up. We were told we could not have the Christmas menu as we did not pre...

We have never had a bad experience here over the years we have been until tonight. From arrival the experience was poor. It wasn’t even busy which could have meant the service could have been off. Not sure if it’s been taken over recently but...

We stayed there for one night in the apartment above the accommodation was lovely Had a great meal in the evening at the pub one of the best gastro pubs we have eaten at Highly recommended

We recently enjoyed a lunchtime trip out to the Three Pigeons. We'd booked the table online and were pleased to hear, when we arrived, that our request for an 'accessible' table had been duly noted. It's nice to see tables spaced out not cramped on...

My husband and I recently ate here for the first time and thought all the dishes were well prepared and very tasty. The only criticism we have is being referred to as "Guys", as a woman of nearly 70 I find this disrespectful and unprofessional.

The service was good but a bit slow at times. The environment was very good, warm and friendly. The brie starter was good but I was disappointed with the main - roast beef dinner. The beef was tough and the Yorkshire pudding was not as...

Lucky to have some great country pubs in the area but the OTP is definitely in the top 3, quality food - the Halloumi fries are gorgeous, great service and prices spot on. Be back soon

The choice of food and the quality was perfectly good - I had beef brisket with mustard mash followed by a delicious creme bruille and others in my family enjoyed chicken and leek pie, gammon and vegetarian burger. The young waitresses were polite and friendly...

Atmosphere cleanliness friendliness all excellent and of course the food Try the wonderful pink duck breast with asparagus

Lovely meal last night! Beautiful food, plenty of it and nice and hot. Restaurant itself is stunning with lovely decor and furniture. Service good, and excellent manager. Lovely place to eat and not over priced

Booked a table here prior to our visit to Shropshire, plenty of room to park, very warm friendly welcome. Spacious tables, good table service, wide choice of food which was very nice (especially the starters) Slightly lacks ambience/character inside (personal preference) so you get a...

We stopped at the Old 3 Pidgeons on our way to north Wales in June 22. The staff were really helpful, letting us sit inside with our dogs as the weather was a bit unsettled. The food was great and the Mexican chicken burger I...

Took the dog along with us to enjoy the sunny beer garden, then decided to stay for some food. Thursday night is “burger night” and they were all delicious. I had the lamb & feta which was huge. Friendly service, excellent food, historic pub with...

Very disappointing meal.Booked a table for 7 people Sunday 3rd July 2022 for 3.15pm.Arrived early ordered drinks at the the bar and sat ouside which was very pleasant.Sat at the table at the alloted time,when the waitress came very quickly and took an order for...

We have eaten here twice this month as a family. Once the service was slow, which we feel was down to a very large party on another table. When the food came it was cold and the duck was tough. Hard to get service due...

Sunday lunch was very poor. We had the roast dinners. Sent the duck back as it was more than tough. Belly pork was dry, pork joint was warmed up and not pleasant and veg was under cooked and altogether disappointing.

We had previously been regular Diner’s here some fifteen years ago now and decided to call in when we happened to be in the vicinity one lunchtime. We had heard the ownership was the same family. The place had changed quite significantly under the management...

We enjoyed a lovely family Sunday lunch. They only had room in the restaurant which is a little big and lacking character. Food was quick to arrive but it was tricky to get staff attention for sauce/pudding. Very reasonably priced. Vegetarian Sunday lunch was lovely...

We visited the old three pigeons for the first time in over 30 years and really glad we did so. The character is still there and now it is nice, warm clean and friendly. Parking is plentiful but an alternative is the X4 & X5...

We arrived at 2.30 as a group of 6. Was told our table was over there. Upon sitting a member of staff came over and said not that table, if we where shown to our table this wouldn’t have happened. We chatted amongst ourselves, eventually...

The Old Three Pigeons is everything you want and more from a country pub/restaurant. We have been visiting this pub for drinks and food for many years. It’s been consistently perfect during all of our many regular visits. The staff and owners make you feel...
