Shropshire has a well-deserved foodie reputation. This has a lot to do with our agricultural heritage. Shropshire and the Welsh Marches have so much delicious meat, dairy and produce within easy reach, Shropshire restaurant chefs cannot help but be inspired. Ludlow, home of the countryβs first food festival, is renowned for its collection of fine restaurants. The strikingly beautiful Shropshire market town with its ruined castle is a foodieβs dream destination. Throughout Shropshire youβll find bright, ambitious chefs creating adventurous food with the produce of our region. Foraging has caught on in recent years. The growing demand for plant-based cooking means vegetarian and vegan diners in Shropshire have never had so much delicious choice.

Eat yourself happy and simply climb the stairs to sleep it off, ready for a full Shropshire breakfast the next morning. Are you hungry yet? Itβs time to book a table in a Shropshire restaurant!
