Visited The Smoky Cow on recommendation from a work colleague. It was well worth the visit, pleasant staff, nice beer and superb food. Definitely coming back Really enjoyed the visit See you soon

OMG the food, the service was second to none the atmosphere, music was perfect. Me, my husband and daughter have been waiting forever for a steak place to open in shrewsbury and this is perfect. Thank you for being so attentive we will return.

We had a lovely meal - the prawn crackers were delicious ! Food is very fresh tasting and full of flavour. A good selection of specials some spicy some not so. We love the deep fried icecream.

Very impressed brought it for a Xmas gift for family really impressed afternoon tea was fab would recommend and will return.

As always, quite magnificent.

Fabulous meal and great service.

First ever visit. We were greeted by a member of staff. Guided to table. The menu choice is vast. Not expensive. Average £25 per adult person with drinks. Food ordered. And was cooked to our specifications. Overall. The staff. Chef. Were excellent. And will be back. Children are well catered for. Totally recommend

First visit Jan 25 2026 to mark our son's 18th, his chose. I'd been the restaurant before in it's previous guises and was pleased to see the unique atmosphere created by the room still remains. A warm welcome and a excellent advice from our server on what cut was what, so we opted for a Cote de Bouef, medium rare which was cooked to perfection and left the 4 of us more than substantiated. Excellent starters as well. We highly recommend.

Went here yesterday for Afternoon Tea for 6 of us. Great hidden away pub overlooking the river. Waited quite a while for the food, but staff are very attentive and pleasant. Food really good and well worth the visit, something different than the usual afternoon tea. Would definitely go again.

I honestly can put fault this small pub/restaurant every time myself and my wife have eaten here the food has always been amazing and the staff are always super polite and attentive! Will be coming back for sure

Lovely country pub , food and service was great . Had the set Sunday menu 2 courses.

Table for 6, a birthday meal. Very friendly staff, great food and accomodating for pets. I would thoroughly recommend the Ribeye steak which was cooked to perfection.

Food was excellent perfectly cooked really well seasoned and presented. Service was excellent. Didn't have to wait for anything everyone was warm and friendly. Will definitely return

First visit and not disappointed. Food was really tasty and very well presented. Service was excellent. Thoroughly recommended

Fantastic cozy and quirky restaurant! Very friendly and knowledgeable staff, and fantastic food! Absolutely beautiful venison and black pudding scotch egg, and smoked mackerel starters. Then two beautiful steaks, a serlion and a ribeye. Both cooked to perfection and so soft and tender, really good quality meat. Accompanied by a gorgeous bottle of rose, recommended by them, and was just perfect. No room for desserts this time but we will definitely be back! Very much recommended, without any hesitation.

Table for 5 all had excellent meals, service was good.
