Coracle

Situated in a northern suburb of Shrewsbury, and erected for Ind Coope & Allsop in 1956, the Coracle is popular with families. From the road, the right hand side is a large bar complete with TV and games area. The left hand side is a lounge/family room with direct access to the garden in the summer months. It has recently been re-branded 'The Lounge Steak House & Grill' (though it is still principally just a pub lounge) (Feb 2016). The pub certainly tries to make the most of it's catchment area, as apart from the Heathgates there are no other pubs within the Sundorne Road/Whitchurch Road/Featherbed Lane triangle, an area consisting solely of housing & schools. Recent house beer Dezzie is in honour of the pubs longest visiting customer, Desmond Pugh. It is remarkably similar to Hobgoblin Gold!
