Guide To Cross Guns
Located prominently in the picturesque village of Pant, the Cross Guns Inn is a notable landmark along the bustling road that connects Oswestry to Welshpool on the Welsh border.
The interior offers a variety of spaces, including a formal dining area for those seeking a refined experience. Additionally, there are entertainment options such as pool tables and televisions throughout the venue. Historically recognised as a sought-after food destination, the Cross Guns Inn offers an extensive selection of beverages, including draught options, wines, spirits, coffee, and teas. It has been particularly celebrated for its good-value food offerings and popular Sunday lunch specials.
Although currently closed, this long-standing business is seeking new licensees through Admiral Taverns to “breathe new life” into the establishment, which previously engaged actively with the community by hosting various events throughout the year, including weekly quiz nights and live music performances.
With its strategic location attracting a steady flow of visitors from local caravan parks, day-trippers, and passing travellers, the Cross Guns Inn represents both a piece of village heritage and an opportunity for revival in the heart of the Oswestry countryside.

Such a super place. Arrived in rain, staff so so lovely. Sat outside (in the rain) as our dogs are a little different- but you made us feel welcome and your service is impeccable. Thank you

The food was very good, the staff were friendly and helpful. They allowed us to bring my brother’s dog into the non carpeted part of the premises. Very happy
