"Relaxed grazing family meal Booked for 530pm. No rush to order. Welcomed by owner who was keen to help and guide. 2 friendly dogs residents which our youngest loved. Felt like being welcomed to a friendly home host. Explained he had a host staff member down which was fine because we were in no rush. In fact it felt relaxed and allowed us to settle in and relax after a busy afternoon. Lots of interesting selections of grazing and main meal options. Well, we could not have anticipated the quality of the cooking. We asked for things to be sent out as they were ready (good option and we grazed away for our stay. Good quality food and wine and seriously reasonable prices. Our 20something to teenage boys left satisfied and full, as did we. Unassuming and delightful visit in this hidden gem. Go without a timescales and enjoy an unhurried but genuinely satisfying and tasty selection of home cooked delights from this skilled and talented chef who caters for tastes young and old. Pure joy for a group who are not always easy to please. Recommend the garlic prawns (simply phenomenal , garlic mushrooms (like I’ve never tasted! , Mac and cheese (pleased a 13 Yr old, hard to please USA foody addict and sirloin steak which was tasty beyond measure. Bottle of Sauvignon was cheap by restaurant standards but good quality too. Recommended by a tricky group who are hard to please in their entirety, usually but all left wanting a return visit. Wish we lived closer as we would be regulars!"

"I loved it here and would have given it 5* but there were 2 things which stopped me. I stayed in room 6, my friend was upstairs and it was just us two in that block which housed the two rooms so was lovely. The rooms were massive and were very nice! Also very clean. The bathroom was a good size as well. The shower was electric and was nice and hot this morning and came with shower gel. There was plenty of toilet roll and there was handwash. The towels were proper bath sized ones not ones that only covered 3/4 of you so they were amazing!!! In the room there was tea/coffee kettle, a table and 2 chairs as well as a double bed. In the wardrobe there was a fan, a heater, an iron, an ironing board and a hairdryer. There was also a full length mirror on the back of the door. There is also a TV on the wall. My two issues which stopped me giving 5* is that the mattress was very very hard and had obviously seen better days and the other was that there was no plug near the mirror. I unplugged the kettle for my straighteners which just about then reached the mirror. Despite my opinion of the mattress, I did sleep well. Considering I was on the ground floor and its a pub, I heard very little noise. The wifi was also really good. We had dinner, good job we booked as pub was really busy! They have an excellent offer on. It was a main and a drink of your choice (we had a G T) for £14.00! Was very enjoyable. Breakfast this morning was also very very enjoyable. You could choose your cooked breakfast and there was cereal available. Orange juice was on the table and tea/coffee to order. The staff were always really pleasant and helpful. In fact, I felt they couldn't do enough for you so I really appreciate this. If I was this way again I wouldn't hesitate to stay here again. Parking was available at no extra charge and Much Wenlock is an absolutely beautiful Town. This pub was within walking distance (of just a few minutes) from the main parts with shops, cafes and pubs. There was some really historical beautiful building!"
