The Shropshire Inn was founded over a hundred years ago, and the current owner has run it successfully and lucratively since 2011.

Located in the quiet town of Haughton, the Inn offers quality everyday dining options, with a la carte, kids’ and special menus, as well as catering for private events and celebrations both with its sleek indoors and superb outdoors marquee.

In the past 12 years, it has accrued many regular customers and an enviable reputation. Not only is the Inn a favourite dining establishment in the area, but it has also won a number of awards, such as the Taste of Staffordshire for 5 consecutive years, and an AA Rosette Award for Culinary Excellence ever year from 2015 to 2023, continuing to demonstrate its excellence to this day.

The restaurant sits in a beautiful location within 4 acres of green, which is fitted with hook up facilities for camper vans, motor homes and caravans.
