comments - Can confirm they are now open Sunday lunchtimes both for drink
and for meals. Local Six Bells ales a part of their offering - Aug 2009 - Visited on a Tuesday afternoon. Despite having changed ownership in 2010, it retains its original ambience. The garden is worth a visit, but maybe at the appropriate time of year! The beer range has an emphasis on local products for which I'd award 3 stars - Feb 2011- 5 real ales on, all from Shropshire, and cider from Tenbury, Worcestershire. Had a pint of ale from the relatively recent Clun brewery (can't remember the name of the beer!) which was excellent: 4.5/5 - Aug 2012 |
Crown & Anchor Vaults |
 The youth pub in town - with noisy decor and music. Floorboards and sawdust - there can't be many pubs like this still left.
Good atmosphere. Two real
ales from Monty's Brewery in Montgomery at cheap prices. Pool table. Situated on High Street. Occasional live music. Tel -

A youngsters' pub and quite busy, Salopian Shropshire Gold on, 2 star. But
let's not knock it, it's open and has real ale!! - May 2010 Bit disappointed with this pub. Yes, real ale on, but the Shropshire Gold was barely drinkable I'm afraid - Aug 2012 |

tasty pint 4/5. Food is good value and not bad at all. Very friendly
landlord (Big Nev himself!) and staff - Dec 2010 - Always a joy to visit Bishops Castle and especially the Six Bells!! Beers on: Big Nevs, Ow Do!, Cloud Nine & the seasonal Elevenale!
