Kings Head, Shrewsbury

Another Shrewsbury pub that lost its historic interior to modernisation.I agree with Historian so many better places to drink.Its better to stand outside , admire the building and imagine that which was lost. Walk across the road to JDWs ,at least you get something decent to drink.

Lovely wooden facaded Tudor styled building, indeed it has a picture of Henry VII on the outside as 'the king's head', presumably as he passed through Shrewsbury on his way to Bosworth where he defeated Richard III. The interior is again, Tudor styled and a bit twee, but i didnt find it that run down, nor the bogs that pungent, as had been reported to me. TV in main room, with ceefax on for the footy scores. Usual taps with no real ale, it did at least have M&B MILD, which was decent enough, but again, with a plethora of quality places to drink, why bother with this one

Go if you must, personally I'd sooner have an extra hole in my head. Between the town centre & the river. Dark, drab, dreary. Beer well below average. One star for being a nice building with a superb exit.

one of my favourite shrewsbury pubs, always a nice pint in this very old building, the food is fine and cooked in full view of the customers near the bar, very clean and tidy nice bar staff and owners.
