Rusty Barrel
Fernwood Shopping Centre, Green Lane,, Rugeley WS15 2GS
Rugeley's first micro-pub, opened in December 2016. The Rusty Barrel Micro Pub is located in the Fernwood Shopping Centre, off Green Lane behind the Spar, one mile from the town centre. Four beers on the bar, sourced nationally or locally direct from the breweries, plus three craft beer taps. Real ciders and perry are also available. It also offers wines and a selection of spirits and 35+ craft gins. Snacks are of the micro-pub variety - crisps, nuts, etc, and includes locally sourced pork scratchings. The pub's name derives from the owner's love of classic and rusty VW vehicles. Child friendly until 7pm and then operates an adult-only policy. There is ample free public parking out front. The pub hours vary, it's best to check the pub's Facebook page for the current opening times.
Rugeley Progressive Working Mens Club

Waiting information.
Whitworth & Mason's
19 Market Square, Rugeley WS15 2BJ
First-floor bar consisting of a single large room, opened in 2019. The decor is chic-rustic in style, with wooden flooring, bare wood panelling, and even wooden chandeliers. There is plenty of comfortable seating in a retro style, including a leather sofa and a single large booth. The toilets feature old-fashioned high level cisterns, and bizarre door decoration with rusty garden spades and forks. Two changing cask ales and usually a real cider are on hand pulls. A wide range of fruit-flavoured gins are available. If walking to the bar is beyond you, you may text your order to the bar.
Albion
17 Albion Street, Rugeley WS15 2BY
Solid working class boozer, boisterous but friendly in equal measure. One or two ales from the Marstons family are consistently served in first class condition. The pub is a single large room, with darts in an area to the side. A tiny stage in one corner features karaoke, usually the 2nd and 4th Saturday of the month. There's a small beer yard at the rear, with a smokers refuge in the corner. Children welcome until 9pm.
Chase Inn
Hagley Road, Rugeley WS15 2AW
Large Marston's estate pub sitting midway between town and Cannock Chase. A single U-shaped bar serves the drinking areas which surround it. Plenty of outdoor drinking areas to the front, plus a well-appointed smokers refuge. Large picture window to the rear but largely offering views of the car park and housing! Cheap and cheerful food offerings. Occasional guest ales from the Marston's family.
Crown Hotel
Upper Brook Street, Rugeley WS15 2DN
Friendly main street pub with a classic frontage, including a historic sandstone panel for Butlers of Wolverhampton. The single main room extends into the rear, with a raised area for pool. The place is equipped with rather more musical amplification than is required, but it doesn't seem to put off the occasional chess players. Near the town bus station.
Stag's Leap
118 Wolseley Road, Rugeley WS15 2ET
Tidy Marstons estate pub, badged as a Generous George. The interior decor and seating is to a high standard, including a wood panelled area. The beer patio and outdoor drinking areas are pleasantly leafy. Soft music plays throughout. Rotisserie chicken is the house speciality on top of a wide menu. The single guest beer is from the Marstons family; when Hobgoblin appears it is usually Fast Cask.
Horns Inn
61 Slitting Mill Road, Rugeley WS15 2UW
Tidy countryside pub on the edge of Cannock Chase Forest. The interior decor is modern but tasteful, with lots of dark wood giving the feel of a hunting lodge. Has two ales on offer. Soft music plays and upmarket, fresh food is offered. Sunny beer terrace to the rear. Small private function room. This pub seems to be more of a eatery than a pub.
Mossley Tavern
95 Armitage Road, Rugeley WS15 1DQ
Locals' pub on the edge of town. The modernised interior has an uncluttered open plan layout with pool, TV screens and multiple dart boards. Basic beer terrace at the rear overlooking the Trent & Mersey canal. Sunday lunches are offered.
Ollys Bar
34-36 Bow Street, Rugeley WS15 2DG
Basic keg-only bar with little natural light. Pool, darts and TV pretty much sum up the attractions. There is a simple decking beer terrace by the side of the car park.
Red Lion
19 Market Street, Rugeley WS15 2JH
Grade II-listed heritage pub dating from the 16th century. The small bar has a low beamed ceiling, quarry tiling and some very old wooden panelling. Shimmy past the right side of the bar for the generally quiet darts room. Meanwhile to the left is a slightly more modern room with TV. Large beer terrace to the rear. They have no car park of their own, there is a one opposite ( free on Sundays ).
Shrew
2 Market Street, Rugeley WS15 2JJ
Spacious keg-only and youth-orientated bar which shows signs of having been a splendid old hotel in days gone by. The colourful decorative posters throughout are vaguely classy, and there's a splendidly massive wooden bench towards the back.
