About This Pub
Ah, The Plough – it's one of those pubs that really pulls you in with its friendly buzz and that genuine community spirit, you know? Picture yourself sinking into a comfy chair with a pint in hand, surrounded by familiar faces, especially if you're there for the big match on Sky Sports or TNT. It's got that welcoming feel that's just right for families with kids or even your dog tagging along, and from what I've heard from a few visits in mind, the food like their pizzas is spot on and hits the spot nicely. But, let's be straight, it's not all roses; the prices do seem a bit on the high side for a local spot, which has put some people off, especially with cheaper rivals around the corner. Still, if you're after a proper pub experience where the service is warm and the atmosphere lifts your spirits, it's worth a go – just keep an eye on the tab to make sure it doesn't dampen the fun.

Visited for food and drinks over the bank holiday. Pizza 🍕 perfect and plenty of drinks choice. Thanks again and see you soon.
Dear Marstons, you are ruining a great pub with your ridiculous prices. Do not take the mickey out of the people of Gresford and Marford. You now have some competition with the Red Lion being far cheaper and better than you. Also, right outside the Plough are two bus stops, allowing the people of Gresford easy access to cheaper pubs in Wrexham and Chester.
Tom and Vicky are attempting to do a great job in the Plough in Gresford, despite your best efforts of alienating the local public.
The Plough is a gem! The atmosphere is warm and welcoming, and the service is always friendly with a genuine smile. Management clearly runs a tight ship – everything is well-organised and inviting. A great place to relax and enjoy yourself! You will leave a friend.
It's probably the dearest local pub around the brewery don't care and people have stopped going there
Always a very welcoming atmosphere from Vicky, Tom and the whole team at the plough. A brilliant local pub that is very accommodating for children and dog’s this place really is the heart of the village.
