Three Fishes, Shrewsbury

This traditional one room pub is well worth a visit. Eight ales on offer, the Phoenix White Star and the Oakham Endless Summer were both superb. Will defo return.

The last remaining pub on Fish Street , The Plough , Bear and Half Moon all long gone , known as the Three Fishes since 1838 the name is believed to come from the Abbott of Lilleshalls coat of arms or more likely from the Fish Market that was held on the nearby Bear Steps . Once a two room pub it is now a single room as described in previous reviews . A long standing GBG pub with eight handpulls , TT Landlord and Doombar are the regulars , the other beers coming from smaller brewers , i had an Arran Dark , Salopian Lemon Dream and Oracle all in exellent nick , there is also a decent range of ciders , mostly Westons . Service was good and the locals a lot friendlier than on previous visits when the atmosphere could be a little cold . An exellent pub , a must do when in Shrewsbury .

Sells an excellent pint of Doom Bar so gets a 10 from me

A lovely, low ceilinged, half timbered, building in a tiny street much as described below, although I think it’s the ceiling that slopes rather than the floor. The service and the beer quality is immaculate and one window has a carefully arranged run of GBG stickers from 2002 to 2011 (the 2012 sticker obviously hasn’t been delivered.) A good range of beers on when I called, Sharps and Timothy Taylors plus four much smaller breweries . The beer pumps are lined up on one face of the L shaped counter while the cider pull and the standards on keg are arranged on the other. A mix of clientele but tending towards the more mature, it was especially busy as I caught it on its monthly quiz night.
