Award-winning.
At The Prince of Wales, we are truly passionate about quality beer, particularly real ale. But you don’t have to take our word for it – we’ve proudly been awarded Shrewsbury & West Shropshire’s CAMRA Pub of the Year for the past eight years!
Community local.
Community is at the heart of our pub. We are proud to be a hub for social groups, sports teams, and the Belle Vue & Coleham Community Action Group, which strives to make our community a better place to live. Click below for more information.
A hidden gem.
Despite being tucked away in the backstreets of Belle Vue, we are known as a hidden gem for a reason. Our spacious beer garden boasts a large, sun-drenched deck and a bowling green. The perfect destination for a summer evening.
Thank you CAMRA!
CAMRA, or the Campaign for Real Ale, is widely regarded as one of the most successful consumer organisations in Europe. Established in 1971 by a group of four real ale enthusiasts, it now represents beer drinkers and pub-goers throughout the UK.
Thanks to the support of Shrewsbury & West Shropshire CAMRA, The Prince of Wales has become the award-winning real ale pub it is today.
