Recommendations - Upton upon Severn (Worcestershire)

Hi Graham, If you have wheels, (A cycle will do only a few miles) or a taxi, try the 3 Kings at Hanley castle. See

A wonderful little village with a wonderful old pub. This pub has won national awards for the beer!

-- Dave Croft Warrington

If the GBG actually says the White Hart, I can't comment. If, on the other hand it says the White LION...........then I'd go with that all the way! Four real ales. Always Abbot and three other regularly changing brews, mainly from smaller breweries. Jon keeps an excellent cellar despite not liking real ale himself (you can't have everything!!). Don't be put off by the "posh" exterior, it is a very welcoming place with good (if somewhat pricey) food. The staff are very friendly. Well-behaved dogs (and I suppose children) are welcome, and it's definitely the place to be! We stay there each year for the Folk Festival and usually for one night at their Beer Festival (the Bank holidays at either end of May respectively). The Muggery is also OK, but there's no comparison. If you do go there, give the staff our regards, and tell Jon I'll be in touch soon. Thanks. Faith & Keith.

Faith, vmt for your endorsement of the White Lion! Will also call in at the Muggery.

Cheers and tks again, Graham.

try the 3 Kings at Hanley castle.

awards for the beer!

Dave, a good shout as it's a few years since I was last at the Three Kings. I will suggest it to my companions. I've also heard that time has not been kind to Mrs Roberts, I do hope that the pub going to remain in the family.

Cheers, Graham.

The White Lion is recommended and the Three Kings at Hanley Cross is an easy walk at just 1.5 miles.

Upton-on-Severn has two low-key secondhand bookshops, which I strongly recommend. Probably not what you wanted, though :)
