Raven Hotel, Much Wenlock

The clue’s in the name, this is a rather posh and refined hotel and restaurant which barely tolerates casual drinkers. Entry is into the hotel reception with a dining room to the right and up a few steps to the rear is an elegant lounge furnished with sofas and antique looking tables, there are 1930s style bar stools along the counter. The counter has a select few beers, Guinness, Warsteiner and two pulls with Woods Shropshire Lad and an own badged bitter also brewed by Woods at 3.8%. This is sold at a stonking £4 a pint. The décor includes some photos from the original 1887 Olympic Games that Wenlock is famous for. Charming and elegant but in no way a pub.
