The Dun Cow, Abbey Foregate, Shrewsbury

Strongers . left this review about The Dun Cow

The Dun Cow is an old Tudor pub that sits behind a raised patio that has a few picnic tables, concentration is required when descending the stairs at the entrance after a few beers. A worn wooden floor runs across the front of the pub where seating is found along the front walls and windows either side of the entrance, and an L-shaped serving counter is found in the left rear corner. Standard and premium keg options were available alongside three hand pumps that were drawing Wye Valley’s Butty Back and HPA as well as Ossett’s White Rat. I spotted two televisions that were both airing World Cup football with sound that was fighting with background music, so I had to pick a table near a television to try and drown out the unnecessary music. To the right rear is an impressive feature fireplace and beyond is a dining area and access to a raised decked seating area out the back. The service was polite, but I’m not sure that I’d go out of my way to revisit.
