Dining
"They sat down in a panelled parlour with so many corners that hardly a panel was of the same size. This had been a great coaching inn."
The House in Dormer Forest - Mary Webb, 1920
South Shropshire has a long history of culinary excellence. Ludlow is just down the road, and for a time boasted more Michelin starred restaurants than London itself. We don’t do Michelin at The Castle, but we certainly use many of the same local suppliers. We’re spoilt for them actually. What we aim to produce is modern pub food that is healthy, hearty, flavoursome and fresh. And great value of course.
And you’ve a wide choice of eating venues at The Castle. Each of the three bars has its own individual character, some with open fires, some with terraces out into the garden. Or try our oak paneled restaurant, believed to feature in the Mary Webb novel “The House in Dormer Forest”. (See adjoining panel)
And when the weather is warm, (and remember it’s always sunny in Shropshire), our beautiful south facing gardens with fantastic terrace and raised fish ponds provide the perfect spot for a light repast and a cooling beverage.
