The Halfway House Inn is situated just over a mile from Bridgnorth town centre, on the B4363 to Cleobury Mortimer, which was the old main road between Worcester & Shrewsbury. See the Map page for further details of where we are.

It is a 16th Century Inn, of some notoriety, mainly in relation to after hours drinking offences & the new proprietor is proud to be continuing the tradition, well into the early hours although restricted to residents & their bona fide guests. The Inn was first licensed in 1620 & was originally known as the Old Red Lion Inn. The name was changed to The Halfway House following a visit by Princess Victoria in 1823. Whilst on a stop to change horses en route from Pitchford Hall to Great Witley Court, she asked where she was. The reply was given "halfway there". Since this date the Inn has been known by its' present name. The oldest part of the building also boasts a wonderful example of an Elizabethan wall mural that has been preserved behind glass for all to see.

Peter & Cecile Williams have been at The Halfway House since 1997 & will have been successful publicans for 40 years in the summer of 2005. They are well known for both the quality & quantity of food. There is a hearty breakfast to sustain the majority of appetites, a bar menu for lunchtime and a three course Dinner menu.
