About The Loggerheads
The Loggerheads is a grassroots music venue in Town Centre, Shrewsbury. Bring your own PA, mics and instruments.
The Loggerheads books Folk, Acoustic, Singer-songwriter acts. Both original music and covers are welcome. This listing is part of the Shrewsbury venue directory.
The Loggerheads is a charming 18th-century Grade II listed pub at 1 Church Street in Shrewsbury town centre, Shropshire (SY1 1UG) — a Marston's house that celebrated 600 years on the site. It serves hand-pulled cask ales by a real fire, is very dog-friendly (water and biscuits for canine guests), and keeps traditional games like darts, dominoes and shove ha'penny. Live music is a big part of its character, with regular folk, acoustic and singer-songwriter sessions plus a traditional Irish music session, typically on Tuesday and Thursday evenings. Acoustic-led and intimate, it welcomes both original artists and covers — a much-loved grassroots Shrewsbury stage.
