Steve C left this review about The Shrewsbury Arms
There was a gas shortage in the Shrewsbury Arms when I visited on a recent Wednesday evening, so the standard keg products were unavailable. I ended up with a bottle of Heineken for £2.50. A laminate bar area is found to the right of the entrance faced by a serving counter up the right. To the left and rear are carpeted seating areas, this isn’t a big pub. The service was friendly, but I was the only customer. This may have been due to the lack of draught beer, or maybe the presence of the police outside who were mob handed waiting for a tow-truck to take away a suspicious vehicle.

A surprisingly friendly pub. It doesn't look much and doesn't have the greatest beers going but it was enjoyable on this Saturday afternoon visit. A single room with the beams decorated with beer mats and pump clips. Whether they've had the ales displayed is a moot point. Either way there are 6 handpumps with 4 ales on today, Banks Amber and Mild plus Boondoggle and Brakespeare Oxford Gold on. A bonus was that amidst the 80s music coming from the jukie the were 2 Half Man Half Biscuit songs on. A pleasant surprise.

A cream rendered terraced Marston's pub, with white paintwork
The interior was a small open plan room with the bar to the left when entering the pub through the central door. The decor was yellow and green with some wood panel and exposed brickwork. There was red and green perimeter seating a Victorian grate and some Victorian furnishings. There were a number of old photos on the walls of Dudley. There was Sky TV, no music. The service was functional and the clientele a few locals.
Beer; tap stuff with Banks's Bitter and a poor Banks's MILD on handpull
a basic place, which would have been ok had the beer been drinkable.
