There are three pubs in the village. The Bridge Inn is a traditional country pub and is only 100 m away. The Admiral Benbow (The Top House) is also a real village pub where Elfie gives a very friendly welcome. The
Talbot (The Dog) has real ale and serves dinners. Both are also within easy walking distance.
The towns and villages around have a vast choice of restaurants to satisfy all
tastes and occasions. Here are a few that we have visited.
The Old Three Pigeons at Nesscliffe has excellent service, good food in variety and very reasonable prices.
The New Inn is only 3 kilometres away in Baschurch and despite the name is a charming old building.
The Queens Head on the Mongomery canal just off the road to Oswestry is very popular and usually booked up at weekends. Excellent menu, particularly good on fish.
The Navigation at Maesbury Marsh is a top quality restaurant serving modern cuisine in sensible sized portions and at sensible prices.
Enigma at the junction of the B4397 and the A5 serves very good Indian cuisine.
Brooks in Oswestry serves excellent food and has a vibrant atmosphere.
Betty's Coffee Shop is an enterprise of the Derwin College for the Disabled and the best value for miles around for morning coffee, lunches and afternoon tea. While you are there look around their garden centre, ceramics and craft workshops which include garden furniture, wrought ironwork, book shelves and picture frames. It is even possible to enjoy a game of bowls or a turn round the putting green.
