“ReUnion Central!”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 13 January 2012

We visited here for a long weekend as a longstanding group of friends, & being central England, it was an ideal location for us. Our experience of the host and his premises and service were all positive. The bar was well stocked (when we arrived!) and the log fire burnt throughout our stay. The staff were kind and courteous and although drinks were a little pricier than most "locals" the beers were good and wines matched our needs.
The accommodation was excellent, clean, comfortable & roomy, any anything amiss was put right straight away... the host could not have been more helpful.
The evening meals were ordered in advance and, although basic English fare, were enjoyable, and, as we all dined together both nights around one large table, made it condusive to a hearty re-union for the 16 of us who managed to make it..... and prices were not unreasonable. Breakfasts were whatever you wanted from full English to just cereals/OJ so all tastes catered for.
Overall I/we would definitely stay here again as it's country Inn atmosphere added to our re-union and not one of our party had a complaint..... and that's saying something as we're a group of middle-aged grumpy old men and our all enduring partners!
Hats off to Peter, Terry and the ladies who hosted our enjoyable weekend away...hearty thanks!

“What a dump!”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 3 November 2011

Visited here with a coach party for lunch. I found the host really patronising, and treated those of us on the party as children. The meals, which had been ordered by telephone in advance, were not ready when we arrived and were brought out in dribs and drabs. I was on a table with three friends. We all ate separately, which was not ideal Additonally, the food was rubbish. I had greasy scami and very greasy chips. Terrible.. We decided we would like a glass of wine with our meal, but were told that they could not serve drinks while they were serving food. It's supposed to be an inn for goodness sake. After the food had been served to all, and most of us had finished, they had the cheek to come round and ask us if we wanted drinks! All in all a terrible experience. I would not recommend eating in this establishment. Mush bett in Wetherspoon's and you can get a drink while you're eating.

As this booking was linked to the Severn Valley Railway timetable, it was only taken on the proviso that we had the food orders in advance so that it could be served to the group within a 45-minute window. All our meals are freshly prepared (no microwave, etc) and the order received from the coach company was incorrect as seven items had been omitted. This naturally caused delays to the timetable and hindered the bar service as we were concerned the party would miss their train.

We are sorry that you did not have a good time with us but this is an uncharacteristic review and we do feel that circumstances beyond our control were a major contribution to the problems incurred.

“Very cosy and friendly”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 29 October 2011

person found this review helpful

We had an excellent stay at the Halfway House Inn recently. The room we were given was spacious and warm with all the charm of a converted 16th century inn. The pub itself is extremely cosy and the large open fire was a huge treat (the campers who came in from outside and hogged it weren't). The food was delicious; particularly the breakfast fry up which was one of the best we've ever had at a B&B. We would love to stay again and would certainly recommend it.

“Lovely place”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 11 October 2011

My husband and I stayed at the Halfway House Inn for five nights recently, and loved it.We picked it because my husband's cousin was getting married nearby and the location was convienient. The staff were friendly, the room itself was spacious and clean.

One thing I'd like to mention is in regards to meals - the meals were excellent (and the serving sizes are a bit bigger than I'm used to). You won't go hungry here. Next time we're in the UK we will certainly consider coming back.

“Basic site... friendly pub”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 27 September 2011

A few of us stayed in Campers for the Bank Holiday weekend - and was firstly treated quite brusquely by the chap behind the bar - but after we had a meal and a few drinks the atmosphere was much warmer... Site was adequate apart from one shower for Male & one for Female and cold water for the washing up of items... though in great location for Shropshire sites.
