National CAMRA Pub of the Year. Cracking boozer. Would have given it 5 stars but it lost a mark due to a staff hygiene issue - two members of staff petted dogs and did not wash their hands afterwards, even though the dogs licked their hands! Something management may like to address perhaps? Otherwise great?

Lovely pub and excellent beer. However there is a contentious issue. I noticed that two of the bar staff did not wash their hands after petting a couple of the dogs. One dog was actually licking the hands of a staff member and they continued to serve customers and collect glasses without washing their hands .This is poor hygiene practice.

Well we went there cus we had to go thro oswestry on way back home and we knew it had been voted camra pub of the year 2024. Beer choice was great and pub was great but toilets were small dirty and mouldy, toilet seat broken. Ive been to lots of much better pubs TBH so bit surprised this pub got the best pub award ..

I really have enjoyed visiting this what is most a great place with a variety of drinks and the odd Rugby match. But after they refused to serve my brother a drink after he had literally had just 1 drink. Someone had been sick in the male toilets and he for what seemed like a mistaken identity he was accused of being too drunk to be served. He came to meet me after work and hadn?t even been to the toilet yet. The girl behind the bar didn?t even know how many she had served him. Even if it had have been 2 drinks it wasn?t enough to get that drunk and be sick. Sorry but won?t be visiting again

Plenty of beers to chose from

I was on the way to the farm and stopped to stretch the legs in Oswestry.
I stumbled upon this establishment as lure of ale pulled me closer.
To my dismay, one I got closer I spotted the presence of wrong'un flags draped from the windows. This included the South African LGTV flag and the Ukrainian flag. Simply poor taste for a traditional ale house opposite the marvellous town hall.
Rectify this immediately!

Interesting pub with an extensive beer list including, when we visited, a beetroot saison. Certainly some curiosities available. Friendly landlord. No food.
Parking: Parking is free in the Marketplace after six. Oswestry has a confusing one-way system.

Great pub. Vast range of beers, lagers, IPAs etc. Friendly staff. Seating outside. This pub has won lots of awards. First visit for us but it won't be the last. Thumbs up!

Accidentally went into this unbelievably brilliant pub. Selection of ales and cider were very broad with every taste catered for. Staff couldn't of been more helpful. Can't wait to return.

Incredible selection of beers, fantastic landlords, welcoming and comfortable pub. One of my favourite in the UK and well deserving of the many awards it's got over the years.
