Strongers . left this review about The Coleham Tap
The Coleham Tap has a dining area in the front right with a large television that was displaying an alpine screensaver, it was empty in here during a recent midweek evening visit. There’s seating in the front left window and up the left-hand wall to an exposed brick fireplace with a couple of red leather armchairs. High tables then continue towards the rear where there’s a conservatory with open plan seating. The U-shaped serving counter on the right-hand wall supports standard and premium keg products alongside Neck oil and two hand pumps that were drawing Wainwright and Rev James. Out the back is a good-sized riverside beer garden, and a large car park is found to the left of the pub. I imagine it gets busy in here on a nice sunny day, but it was very quiet during my visit, however the service was polite and I got comfortable, so I’d pop back in if passing.

The former Crown may have been rebranded by Marston's, but I'm not sure how much things have changed? However, the various seating and dining areas areas were almost full on a Thursday evening, so it must be doing something right? The terrace overlooking the River Severn must also be a draw in the better weather (but not today...). Just a pair of cask ales available on handpump: Rev James and Wainwright Gold (£4.30).

A pleasant pub overlooking the river from the rear. A beer garden out back. An open plan pub with offshoots to drink in. Real ales available.
