About the restaurant

The Hind's Head is a traditional country village pub and restaurant serving freshly made food and quality local cask ales. We are a community owned and managed free house in a very picturesque Shropshire village. We have the more traditional areas of the pub with wood burning stoves, as well as a lovely restaurant and welcoming orangery for all our guests to enjoy food, drinks and good company. We offer two wine lists as well as a great selection of cask ales, lagers and ciders. The views from the front of the pub have a perfect picture post card view of St Chad's Church in the centre of the village. While we offer traditional pub classics like freshly made pies and fish and chips, we also regularly offer specials that our chefs create weekly and do a lovely Sunday roast dinner that is extremely popular.
On Wednesday evenings we do different foods and events, please call to confirm the theme to ensure it's what your looking for it could be Tapas, Italian, a quiz night.

Wonderful restaurant and pub. I am working my way through the entire menu. Every dish is expertly prepared with fresh ingredients and completely delicious. The service is never rushed and the staff is very friendly and knowledgeable. I am already looking forward to my next trip to the UK and my next visit to the Hinds Head.

First time visit. Had a great experience, great food and a great atmosphere. Service good and the meal was value for money. Graig gave us an overview of the restaurant and the Lunar Society that the restaurant takes its inspiration from. Would recommend and intend to go back in the new year.
