Situated in an older residential part of town the opposite side of the River Severn to the town centre approximately three quarters of a mile walk. The building was originally the canal agents office for the nearby Montgomery Canal terminus, the last couple of miles of the canal was closed and filled in back in the 1930’s however restoration work has taken place and a pathway/cycle way now exists along the old canal bed all the way to Welshpool – the canal itself starts again 2 miles or so from the Pub but is not currently navigable. The Waggon as its known, is part community local and part Restaurant with the best beer garden in the town by a long shot. The left hand bar has a television, photographs and trophies with strong emphasis on sport and a games room with pool table leads off from it. The right hand bar is now used more as a reception room for the restaurant which is located at the rear. The restaurant and the landlords cooking have a good reputation locally and booking is recommended. Its known as the restaurant in the garden and overlooks the beer garden which is fairly large, flat and child friendly with play areas, its also a sun trap on better days which makes it a rarity in the area. Will also open on a Monday evening if the domino team is playing at home.
