Strongers . left this review about House of Grain
The House of Grain has seating up the right and in the left-hand window before the serving counter on the left-hand wall that support a couple of hand pumps, one of which was drawing a decent drop of Salopian’s Oracle. Seacider and Bumble Bee Strawberry Mojito ciders were available from boxes and the back bar is lined with craft and premium keg as well as Stella. The service was polite, but there was a very strong smell of old farts, to the point I had to remove myself to the red seating on the path outside that wasn’t unpleasant to sit at on a warm midweek evening.

Housed in an old Grade 2 listed Corn Warehouse, The House of Grain is a split-level bar / restaurant with the bar on the ground floor and then a restaurant section on the upper floor reached by a spiral metal staircase. Although the decor is modern it does reflect some of the history of the building with its tiled floor and walls and period wood & metal fixtures.
When it opened in mid 2017 this craft and cask beer bar had the 10 tap wall on the back of the serving area and four ale hand pumps on the front of the bar. This is now down to two ale pumps and for our visit only one of these was in operation, with Salopian Oracle at £3.50 a pint, so I guess the main target demographic for this one is more interested in the craft options rather than the cask.
So I thought i’d join them and went for something called The Anatomy of Taverns, a 6.5% stout from the Newcastle craft brewer Wylam. It was very good but I hoped it would be at £3.25 for a half.
The House of Grain was being well utilised for our early afternoon visit and seems to be a solid enough recent newcomer to the Shrewsbury drinking scene.

Quite a decent set up here, serving ten craft keg and luckily for us a good pint of Salopian Sessionista. The bar was area on the rear left hand side had a copper counter top and a selection of pumpclips displayed on the wall near the spiral staircase that leads up to the first floor. The place was getting very busy on our Friday 9pm visit. The young bar staff were busy focusing on making large orders of cocktails, the music playing was Hip Hop, so quite a good vibe going on. There is a good curry house opposite called Ramna, we found the food and service excellent, so a good double header.
