Griffin
Inn, Shustoke
With so many excellent candidates out there, it’s always a tough job choosing our branch Pub of the Year for Warwickshire. This year the Griffin Inn at Shustoke is a deserved winner of the accolade. Michael Pugh has been running the pub for around 30 years now and it is a firm favourite with real ale drinkers. He is pictured below receiving their award from branch member, Eric Randall (right of picture).
Set in the Warwickshire countryside,
around three miles, north of Coleshill, the Griffin
Inn is situated on one corner of a tight bend on the
B4116. It is a traditional country pub, with low
timber beams, inglenook fire places and log
burning stoves. There is no music or televisions to
disturb the conversations of the customers. At
the back of the pub is a conservatory (where families
are welcome), an outdoor patio and then a large grassy
area, on which kids are often seen playing
football. The pub offers food at lunch times only
(but not Sundays), but does have pork pies for sale in
the evenings. The bar also sells locally produced free
range eggs, cheeses and honey. |
