The Duck At Allscott

Went for the first time today and the landlady was unbelievably rude. We were spoken to horrifically, we all actually felt very uncomfortable at the pub after having an encounter with her. Such a shame when the other members of staff were lovely. Won’t be...going back again

All I’m going to say is absolutely disgusting. The staff I’m just lost for words. The actual interior of pub well all I can say is I went into better cafés with my mother back in the The carvery well what can I say...never again must be the worst place I’ve ever been to. Beware.

I should have known from the parking place, it will be terrible dirty not covered it filthy, sticky teppich, dirty furniture covered with dust, haare and shed sticky tables rude woman served the food I could not literally eat my food, I. was fetching at the rande of the place avoid it! View menu

Would of been a nice and very reasonably priced meal unfortunately we were made to feel very un welcomed by the lady serving the carvery- I asked if there was any gamon left and was told I should of came earlier if I wanted that…...it says you serve until so if you don’t want me there change your times?

We had a lovely experience at the restaurant for Mother's Day. The menu had a great variety of starters, and we all enjoyed trying each other's dishes. The pate and mushrooms were particularly delicious. The carvery meats (beef, lamb, turkey, and gammon) were all tasty and the portions were generous. The selection of potatoes and vegetables was also excellent. Even though I don't usually have dessert, the Sticky Toffee Pudding with Ice Cream was a standout. Despite the busy restaurant, the staff managed to seat and serve us efficiently. We had a great family meal and thoroughly enjoyed our time together.

I was sad to read some of the reviews on this page. We have been going to The Duck for years ….and we live the other side of Shrewsbury.If you want cosy .intimate surroundings then don’t go here but if you want one of the...best Sunday carveries with fresh vegetables (only the peas are frozen) and a choice of meats then try it! Plenty of choice for vegans and vegetarians. The sweets are home made and are delicious. We only go for Sunday lunch and book beforehand. As I say we don’t go to look at the surrounds and you make your own company pleasant. The waiters/waitresses are polite and attentive . The owner has been criticised for being rude ……it’s just her way and you can make her smile.Don’... View menu

After reading some mixed reviews, I decided to try Duck in Ascott for myself. I have been a regular customer for several years now and have never been disappointed. The food is beautifully presented, homemade, and always delicious. The service is top-notch, with friendly staff ensuring that everything is just right. I stumbled upon this gem a few years ago and have been returning ever since, even though I am quite picky about where I dine. Trust me, the food at Duck in Ascott is a pleasant surprise compared to other local restaurants. And don't even get me started on the desserts - they are out of this world! (See attached photo). I highly recommend giving this place a try and forming your o...

After reading some mixed reviews, I decided to book a meal at this restaurant to form my own opinion. The food was enjoyable, hot, and plentiful. The goat cheese and pepper sourdough starter was a highlight, as were the main courses which included a chicken burger, Madeira chicken, Steak and Ale Pie, and a winter warmer (featuring Faggot sausage). Unfortunately, I couldn't find room for dessert! The service was also good, and the atmosphere was calm. It made me realize the importance of supporting local pubs like this one, as they are at risk of closure. I encourage others to try it for themselves instead of solely relying on reviews. Let's support our local pubs, as they need us now more th...

I have read some of the reviews here and honestly said they shocked me like every time we were in the duck, there was never any problem. at least once a month we go there for a Sunday carvery and on boxday we go for. the cauvery as well. every time they do not fail, they have always managed to satisfy us, beef is beautiful and delicate, sweet are full of taste and there is a lot of sauces for those who are not like gravy! also the portions are good and so are the prices. my a child has always a greater meal, as she was like a lot on the teller and this was never a problem with the woman who served as a question that she could not be happier! beside the meal itself, puddings never fail to imp...
