Highwayman in Shropshire

I call in to do my work at least twice a week.... Always greeted by Martin who is always pleasant and helpful... Top Bloke...

Absolutely fantastic food and staff. I cannot praise this pub more highly. Well done Tyler and your team. We will definately be back

Good food pleasant staff, nice place to go

Ffion, Harry, Martyn, Jed, and Tyler create a lovely atmosphere perfect for eating, drinking, doing work or socialising. Generally making the pub a lovely space to be in with a homey, family vibe (also they have amazing doughballs so its a double win really)🥰

Always good service and good food

Great and friendly staff, really went above and beyond for us and checking in at the table just the right amount of times. Food was great as usual and loads of choice!

Fantastic service from start to finish

Order arrived with items missing, southern fried chicken burger overcooked and was really dry and hard. The scampi was soggy and undercooked thd only thing that was nicd was the chips and onion rings very disappointed with the meal, wouldn't go again.

It was very busy on the night with the staff working hard. The service was prompt and in particular Caroline was most pleasant snd professional. Given how busy it was we did not have to wait too long for our food which we enjoyed. Well done. Gareth

Excellent service.. Excellent food

The staff are so lovely and helpful and make such a good atmosphere. Martyn always makes our group feel at home! We'll be visiting again soon!

We were here with our drama group and the service from Martyn and team was wonderful. Food was great and everyone enjoyed the evening.

Martin U thinks the food was amazing today great service and great food. We have been so many times and it was good today because of it being so busy

The service here was outstanding. Waitresses especially Caroline, regularly checking that everyone was ok and offering drinks, more food. Food was lovely and served hot. Very friendly atmosphere. Will definitely return.

Brilliant service. Our waitress Caroline was pleasant and attentive. The food was great and reasonably priced. Atmosphere was great. Highly recommend.

I am writing this review on a staff member at the Highwayman in Oswestry as my phone has refused to work there. I eat at the highwayman approx 3 days a week. The staff and food is brilliant. Caroline at the highwayman is an absolute asset to the company, she is incredibly efficient and so so naturally pleasant. We will keep coming here as we can guarantee a pleasant experience with lovely staff there. Well done to them all especially caroline

Great service from all staff but especially Caroline.

Marty brilliant service so friendly and attentive

Nice Christmas meal with family and friends.

Great food martyn was a great server will be returning thankyou

Great customer service from Caroline! Quick service and delicious food. Went out there way to bring my daughters cake out which she loved. We love coming there for meals never disappointed.

Staff were very friendly and all had smiles. Ffion took our order and was v easy to talk to and polite. We had the cowboy burger and it was really good.

Family live in Oswestry and live nearby to the Highwayman so convenient when we visit. We have been a few times and Sunday being the most recent. The staff were friendly, efficient and love that they are dog friendly throughout. Ordered at the bar and Caroline was lovely, very helpful and clear regarding menu choices. The food was served very promptly and was hot and very tasty. We were checked throughout the meal ensuring that the meal was up to standard. I would definitely recommend eating at the highwayman

We have been to The Highway Man, Oswestry several times. Martin is always pleasant and polite. Food - we all had pizza, which are freshly made on site and very good. Prices reasonable. There is a good selection of food available if pizza is not your preference.

Great service lovely staff and lovely food..Thanks ☺️

Staff Martin and Lucy really polite, friendly and helpful

Steaks we're a bit grisly and tough Martyn and Lucy were attentive

My partner and I stopped in for a bite to eat on the way to the East Oawestry Community Centre. We were watching the wrestling there. Fantastic food, really friendly staff, and a lovely cosy aesthetic. Was thrilled. Our server forgot our onion rings but ran out with them when we mentioned it. If we are in Oswestry again we'll definitely come back.

Friendly staff and food was lovely and good for the money with Martin and carolyn

Mark and Caroline were fabulous. Very bubbly and lovely staff!!!

Great pub, great service from Martin very friendly. Love it

Service was very good today. Fantastic to have Martin back at The Highwayman. And I had the best meal in ages. So thank you Tyler . It was an enjoyable evening today

Very friendly, very delicious, but it was a nice experience. Martin was excellent. As always fantastic service from him.

It ok, food was salty, cutlery was bit unclean. No discount option on app when us QR code. Martin manually sorted it at till, sort of defeats using app.

Great food and service. Always greeted warmly by Martin.

Excellent, well manored and attentive staff.

Great staff, Martyn was very helpful and created a great atmosphere

Friendly staff, nice clean environment. Great food. Great service from Martyn and the team

Came here for lunch today. Had the gammon, food piping hot and staff very attentive, especially Martyn. Will definitely return soon

Went to the Highwayman, Oswestry for lunch. Ordered fish and chips, would definitely recommend this! Portion was large and food piping hot. Staff very attentive, and courteous especially Martyn.

Lovely staff, Kaci was super helpful today. We are always happy with a meal here.

Been here manyy times. Staff always very pleasant. Good service. Good food. Martyn served us last time excellent.

A lovely evening at the highway man this evening. We a waitress called Kaci who was very attentive and all other staff were polite also.

Very fast service, lovely food and welcoming staff.

Inexpensive, nice food. Courteous service.

Had a lovely meal, really couldn’t fault it & good selection of gins. Excellent service. All the staff are so friendly. Good location.

The food has improved at lot in the last six months. We now go for a Sunday roast here quite frequently. Recommended.

Brilliant customer service from Caroline 😊

Really friendly pub, I was greeted by Caroline at the bar who was really happy. After a long day at work and away from home this was a lovely welcome. The mix grill was really good value and enjoyable. I will definitely come again.

The atmosphere was lovely the staff were really helpful the food was amazing we had a starter main and pudding we really enjoyed our meal and will be visiting again

Food was great and came out very quickly. Waiting staff were also excellent, especially Caroline who made sure we were really well looked after.

Popped in for a drink and ended up with some cake. Friendly helpful staff.

We eat at the Highwayman every Sunday for lunch and will now have our evening meal every Saturday night, The food is excellent and is a credit to Sam the manager.

Had an excellent meal, service was very good and staff were friendly, good choice on the menu would recommend a visit

Great food, fast service and very reasonable. Often eat out here, lovely environment

Burger I ordered with specific requirements to me was superb and very reasonably priced. Many thanks to Millie 🙂

We popped in for last minute drinks and decided to eat. Food was lovely only complaint was small portion of chips, lovely well cooked food, nice and clean friendly staff.

Excellent service and excellent food. There was 6 of us in our group, two of us had burgers, two had gammon, one had lasagna and one jacket potato, 5 desserts, definitely recommend to friends and family.

Food reasonably priced we had 5 in our party plenty of choice. Sunday dinner is lovely. We recommend booking . Plenty of parking

I really enjoyed me experience here at the highway men my food was beautiful and tasty Annie was very polite and helped me a lot thanks guys highly recommend this place

I really enjoyed my food Annie was a kind and helpful person my food came quick and I will be coming back soon thank you 🤩

Caroline was a massive help with deciding my food and made some helpful recommendations , looking forward to coming back again soon

It’s been a while since I was last here and it’s had a full makeover. Very light and bright decor and a pleasant atmosphere. Didn’t have a meal as just meeting a friend for a catch up but the menu looked reasonable and reasonable prices. Staff were friendly and service was prompt.

Great service from Martin. So pleasant and helpful. Nothing was too much trouble. A great asset to the business. Will definitely visit The Highwayman again.

Came in yesterday evening, was served by our lovely waitress Kaci. The environment was really great and we were throughly impressed with the service.

The food was excellent and the Staff were friendly and helpful.

I haven't been to The Highwayman for several years and it was refreshing to see it remains a quality eatery. The lunchtime specials where you can choose to add a dessert for a much reduced price to the standard menu makes it approximately £10 each for 2 courses. Decor is modern and clean with a relaxing atmosphere. Food arrived hot and although it was busy, arrived promptly. Shout out to Caroline who brought out our puddings then went to serve me at the bar. I ordered hot drinks and she kindly offered to bring them over so I could go and enjoy my pudding while it was hot. I haven't experienced service like that for a very long time. Highly recommend

Visited for lunch, very clean, friendly staff and great food. Dog friendly, and wheelchair accessible so will be able visit again with the pawed and wheeled family members.

Martin was very helpful and in my eyes he is an absolute asset to the highwayman.

Martin was extremely helpful. A well mannered polite and he has great customer service skills. I hope his hard work doesn’t go unrecognised and I would gladly come again. Keep up the hard work Martin as you are a credit.

Great place to eat....service was above and beyond....food was nice and served surprisingly quick ...A+....

The staff are always extremely friendly. I am in a wheelchair and come in with my daughter, I'm always put on a table where I am comfortable. I used to work in a busy restaurant and I understand it can be stressful but every staff member is always smiling and will give you their time without you feeling like they are too busy. I love coming and my 5 yr old does too

Always have a great time visiting here. Caroline was amazing 👍 5 stars!!!

Greeted by a very nice chap who confirmed my booking, showed us to our table. Even though the pub was busy we got served quickly. Food very good overall very good experience

Standard menu as in lot's of this type of pub, place looked run down and in need of some TLC.

expensive for what was on plate,literally 10 chips

Lovely place to visit.... great staff and amazing food.

Service was wonderful, three check-backs during the meal. Value for money -great. Staff were attentive and polite. A couple of comments by way of constructive criticism… The starters we had (Prawn cocktail, Buttermilk chicken strips), were served in enamel pie dishes which was rather odd, and the bbq sauce on the chicken would have been better served separately than smothering the chicken. There was far too much off it. The portion of peas was rather small on both mains (Rump steaks), and my steak ordered as medium rare was cooked rather more medium-well. It was however, a beautiful piece of meat. As always in restaurants with wooden tables, the surface was sticky. Not dirty, but sticky, which I know is because of the spray used to clean the tables but I always find it very irritating that I cannot rest my arm on the edge of the table without feeling sticky.

Good food served quickly and friendly. Good atmosphere tasty food and nice play area for the children. Service was excellent. Our server Caroline was friendly patient and super helpful.

Very friendly staff and quick service!!! Food was great too

The fact you can take your dogs, children grandchildren and feel relaxed and accepted, hardworking friendly staff ensure your enjoying your food and experience, also a doggy menu,

Excellent crispy batter and non greasy chips. Good, friendly service.

Fab Sunday lunch, plenty of it and hot. Lovely to see Martyn back. Waited on by Matt who was friendly and cheery even though it was very busy. Pub was really full but we were served and done in just over 30 mins. Fun day also in full swing. Excellent👍

Yes, it's part of a Marston's chain, yes, it serves pub-grub, yes, it's not an old characterful pub, but everything about this place is warm and caring. The lasagna was tasty, the chips scrummy and the drinks reasonably priced. Also, our server, Caroline :-) was a delight. She went round the pub checking on the customers, seeming to know them all by name, but not intruding. A very homely and comforting pub, easily accessible from the A5 at Mile End and a better option than some of the more synthetic options you have to pass to get there.

Fast and friendly service Martyn is lovely. Always friendly and helpful

Absolutely most awful food Iv tasted in ages. All cold and come out of a jar. My pizza was cold, peppers and onions were raw the sauce on top was disgusting. My husbands chicken pie and chips were ok and he ate most of it !!

Great service, good food, Caroline was especially attentive.

Service was very good and quick. The food was lovely

Thanks for looking after us so well

Fast friendly service. Sunday roast was spot on 👌

Came here this morning for breakfast ,it was amazing the service by Ffion was absolutely lovely and helped us as much as she could she made the atmosphere very welcoming and happy !thank you Oswestry highwayman

This waitress Ffion was absolutely lovely. Highly recommended place to eat. Amazing atmosphere amazing breakfast

The service is very slow, unclean. Sweet potato fries were burnt and the chicken was under cooked!

We stopped by for a quick beer, and while the selection was impressive, the overall experience left much to be desired. The staff was attentive and eager to assist, which was a positive aspect. However, the pub's general condition was disappointing. The interior appeared rundown, and the hygiene in the WC facilities was particularly alarming, with an overpowering smell that made the area quite unpleasant. Although we didn't try the food and therefore can't comment on it, it's clear that with some basic maintenance, a fresh coat of paint, and improved cleanliness, this place could significantly improve.

Adam was the best. Would recommend 👌

Lovely meal and few drinks. We thank Adam for his speedy service 🙏

the food was delicious as always and adam was very polite

Myself and husband visited on Monday 26th August for our 35th wedding anniversary. Its was busy but a table was reserved for us. Caroline and all of the staff work very hard. Food was amazing hubby said the pizza was the best he had eaten for a long time. Puddings were very nice too. 👌

Celebrating our wedding anniversary we went to the Highwayman for a meal. From the time we entered to the time we left we enjoyed everything. Starting with the food it was spot on, I had pizza 🍕 for a change & they did not disappoint followed up with apple crumble. Both we're cooked to perfection. MANY THANKS TO CAROLINE AND ALL THE STAFF. Hope to come back soon. 👍👏 5☆☆☆☆☆

Excellent service. Really friendly staff, Caroline was so lovely and helpful. Gorgeous food. Our go to place when we fancy a meal out.
