Glouglou Wine Bar & Shop

You'll find yourself on Castle Gates—proper old Shrewsbury—pushing through the door of somewhere that feels like a mate's living room, except the mate has impeccable taste in wine. Glouglou isn't trying to be fancy; it's just genuinely good at what it does. The selection spans natural wines, classic French stuff, and lesser-known European bottles that make you feel a bit clever without being pretentious about it. There's a small shop side too, so you can nick a bottle for later if you're having that kind of evening.
