The Crow, Tenbury Wells

Smart exterior. Slightly rambling interior, with central bar spitting a pool room and a lounge bar. Some outside seating. Think there was one cask on - but played safe with a Camden hells keg - £4.60.

Beside the small brook running through the town, this place benefits from a reasonable waterside beer garden (which is just as well since the interior wasn't yet in post-coronavirus use). Unfortunately, with the landlord still testing the market, the likes of Wye Valley's HPA / Butty Bach and Doom Bar haven't reappeared yet, so had to make do with a Worthington's (£3.00).
