The Miners Arms is a traditional open-plan pub at 74 Prince Street in Madeley, Telford (TF7 4DY), a Marston's/Banks's house with bare beams and brickwork, a pool table, darts and a canopied beer garden. It puts on regular live music across all genres, usually on Friday or Saturday nights (dates posted on its Facebook page), making it a friendly grassroots spot for both original acts and covers. Permanent Banks's beers sit alongside a rotating Marston's guest, and the pub is dog-friendly throughout with quiz nights and good drink deals (capacity around 60).
