This was a first class experience at Dockett 22 in Whitchurch with excellent service. The food was exquisite, varied and presented beautifully. The service was the right balance of attentive without being intrusive and each course was described with just the right amount of information. The birthday card and unexpected additional dessert with a candle was thoughtful and added to the experience. Highly recommended.

Our absolute go to restaurant. It’s our favourite place and we’ve been many times over the years. We’ve been to lots of Michelin starred restaurants and Docket is absolutely up there for us! We always recommend Docket to friends and family. Amazing food, service and atmosphere from Stuart, Fran and the lovely team. We cannot wait to come back again and again!

If you have not been to this restaurant you have got to give it a try. Easily the best restaurant in the area by a country mile (and we have tried them all !). Really clever and creative dishes, that taste amazing. Great service with a nice personal touch from the owner. Atmosphere nice and relaxed - no stuffy nonsense here. Well worth a try.

This was our second long awaited visit - last time it was to celebrate the anniversary of our first date - this time both our birthdays. I mention this because we were greeted with a card each and an additional surprise at the end. The whole experience is an absolute joy, the atmosphere, service and wonderful food. Some of the courses challenged my palate - in a very positive way. The attention to detail and the flavours are outstanding. This makes it great value for money - not cheap but very good value. Deservedly fully booked

This was our first visit to Docket no 33 everything from start to finish was amazing. Our waitress was an absolute delight. The sommelier was very knowledgeable and explained just why the wine pairing worked with each course without being pretentious. Each of the food courses was an artful creation and a taste sensation.

If i were looking to improve i would like the wine flight to alaways be delivered to the table just prior to the food it was occasionaly just after wine flight i wasnt convinced of two of the pairings but thats a personal choice i will definitely go again

On September 7th, we celebrated our anniversary with my boyfriend at Docket Restaurant. As we entered the restaurant, we were greeted with impeccable hospitality. The atmosphere was cozy and relaxing, with pleasant lighting and an elegant yet modern interior. The staff was very friendly and attentive. As for the dishes, each one was a true work of art. Our tasting menu consisted of 10 dishes, each unique and incredibly delicious. I was especially impressed by the presentation of the roasted tomatoes in tomato essence—an unforgettable taste. The dish that my boyfriend enjoyed the most was the steamed halibut, dusted with nori powder, resting in a light crème fraîche sauce, accompanied by turnip, black barley, and puffed wild rice. The soft, flaky fish paired perfectly with the crunch of the wild rice, while the creamy sauce balanced the earthiness of the barley and turnip. Each element complemented the other, creating a wonderful mix of textures and flavors. At this point, the restaurant had already exceeded our expectations; we were very satisfied with the food and the experience, but it turned out there was more to come... The final dish was brought to us and presented by the chef himself, which pleasantly surprised and delighted us, and he also congratulated us on our anniversary. And that wasn't all 🤤 because later we were served a special dessert with a lit candle, and the staff congratulated us on our anniversary once again. It was very touching—we made a wish and blew out the candle. This was a special and unforgettable experience for us. I'm very happy my boyfriend chose your restaurant.

This was booked as part of an anniversary celebration. We were both a little disappointed, unfortunately. It was a 9 course (10 if you include the homemade sweets), tasting menu. Food offering can be very subjective, and although presented nicely, it was our opinion that with a couple of exceptions, the food offered more style than substance. Perhaps just not to our liking on this occasion. The service was excellent.

Had seen Stuart doing a cookery demonstration at Ludlow Food Festival, so decided to make a point of visiting his restaurant at some point & was not disappointed at all. The 10 course taster menu was really well thought out and seasonal; with a good variety of flavours and textures, and the wine pairings were very well matched. The servers had a really good sense of humour and were very efficient & friendly, and it was a nice touch for Stuart to come out and talk with us too. Will be recommending to friend that they visit and will definitely be returning myself.

The new manager they've taken on is a total moron. We're having a private conversation, and she just wanders over after earwigging and decided to join in. Ever heard of personal space? I don't need to know about her personal issues or boyfriend Bob. It was really uncomfortable and a bit cringe. She also smelled of sweat. Personal hygiene is a prerequisite when you're in the food industry..

The year was 2021 ! And that year was my last time i come to Docket no33! The year is now 2024 and it was definitely high time i come back to the restaurant with missing open arms, and boy have i missed this place with a passion! And boy was i excited to come back to Docket knowing that a friendly front of house is ready to greet me.. With information that the head chef from Palé Hall was now doing, his magic was well at Docket... so it was time for the food delights as i sat down on a Saturday lunchtime sitting.. This brilliant mackerel croustade was handed to me! Such powerful flavours was come from this, so moreish and sexy.. Next was the regular chickpea chips with a dip that just got the tastebuds going. Next up was this type of white onion soup thing! Well why much better than a "soup" the Thyme coming from this reminded me of a chicken Sunday dinner ! Plus it come with a duck Muffin to mop up everything. Celeriac was up next ! And boy this had powerful Celeriac flavour, not to much that it Destroyed all the other elmlements with this.. Let's talk pork... Pork & black pudding slice was da bomb, loved this dish! Fish time and it wss cod and Jerusalem Artichoke, the cod was cooked to perfection! To a point that it probably the best bit of cod i had in the past 12 months. Then it was time for the venison loin, this main was brilliant the venison was cooked so well, could of done with another one of the duck muffins to mop up the Jus. Normally i don't do the cheese course! But having seen someone have one, it just looked the right amount for me to eat, so it was worth having one.. Now for the Pre-dessert which consisted of orange Sorbet covered on a chocolate coating, this was so refreshing and got you ready for the dessert. Which brought us to another refreshing dessert as well, pineapple & and passionfruit Finished the lunch off in style with tropical flavours... Then a bountiful of pick & mix petit Fours was placed down... So it was really dam nice coming back to the Docket, with great food, great wine, and great FOH, it's a dam sure I'll be back it the end of this year...

My best friend has been wanting to come to this restaurant for a long time. We decided to make this our Christmas present to each other a bit of a treat and what a treat it was. Wow wow wow. We decided to have the flight pairing with the Ten course meal. That was a very good decision. We really really enjoyed trying the different wines with the food. the service couldn’t have been any better. The waitresses were delightful. Very intelligent, knew everything about the dishes they served. The lady that poured the wine was so knowledgeable and interesting. It made our visit really fantastic. The food itself was out of this world. It was just stunning. Every mouthful was a burst of flavour, I’m so impressed with this restaurant, I wish I could afford to go more often. if you have a special occasion or just want to treat yourself, I highly recommend this restaurant we came from Shrewsbury on the train.

We recently came across this little restaurant in the main Whitchurch high street, we noticed it had been awarded a Michelin plate so we immediately booked for the 10 course tasting lunch with wine flight. After a few weeks of waiting for a table, our afternoon stated with cocktails at the bar before we were shown to our table.. the food started strong and just kept on getting stronger. It's very obvious the chef is accomplished, ambitious, creative and innovative.. the flavours and presentation were executed well, whilst the service strong. The team were knowledgeable and enthusiastic with just the right amount of attentiveness. The lunch was great value given the quality of food, wine and service - I don't think they are too far from a star... We will be watching attentively and definitely going back

Docket review 13th May 2023. Docket No33 is absolutely superb and continues to deliver exquisite food and service. Last night was our 8th visit in a year and was, without doubt, our best dining experience yet! Now, at the risk of sounding like a boaster, I’ve dined in some pretty amazing restaurants - Le Manoir, Le Gavroche, Alain Ducasse at The Dorchester, Shaun Rankin at Grantley Hall, Purnells and Simpsons in Birmingham, Tom Kitchin, Edinburgh, Mr Underhills Ludlow (now closed) amongst others and they were all good, some in fact were very good but last night at Docket No33 was exceptional. How Stuart manages to pack so much of a punch with flavour and texture is truly magical. Coupled with Frances’ genius as a sommelier, her wine pairings do take each dish to an even greater height. Bravo to the entire Docket team and keep up the amazing work. We’ll see you again in July!!

Frances runs "front of house" with an enthusiastic and friendly team and you always feel valued as a diner. She pairs the wines expertly (and I work in the wine trade) and it's well worth opting for the wine flight to accompany your menu. Well worth a visit for a great dining experience.

5 star meal and experience. We went on Friday for my birthday after wanting to go for a while and it was 100% worth the wait. Yes- as expected the food was spectacular and didn’t disappoint. The menu was beautifully presented and it really was well considered. Ever. Single element. (Our fave was the rhubarb lolly! Closely followed by the beef! Not in that order 🤣) I am currently pregnant and this was considered and the menu adapted to suit. I queried one of the menu options and it was adjusted to suit just to be extra cautious and that was just another element of greatness. The staff were lovely, they all asked how we were and they all were knowledgeable and helpful. Our main server was Harry and he was fantastic. The manager (sorry we didn’t take your name!!) was wonderful too- she took the time to come over and explain that one of the choices was based on her love of soup and a sarnie! She was super enthusiastic and it was obvious that the team she leads want to be there and they are taking her enthusiasm in their stride. We expected good food but the whole experience was just lovely and my last birthday meal before baby arrives was memorable and faultless. Thanks so much to all the staff- both inside and outside the kitchen- keep doing what you are doing and we will be back!

Top place, you will need to book well in advance. Staff very attentive, food excellent good friendly atmosphere. Not a place for those on a tight budget, otherwise I would highly recommend.

Some of the best food we’ve ever had. What these guys do is amazing! They also catered for diary free and vegetarian, giving us our own unique menus. Wine is excellent too, as are the staff. Well worth a visit

In autumn Lockdown I was having fond memories of my last visit to docket No33 In October 2019.Having gaining an appetite of them chickpea chip is was literally a visit long overdue..Having been greeted at th he door with a happy and pleasant great greet..Docket only do a taster menu which in my eyes I do love, having looked at the menu and going for the wine flight! I was definitely ready to get stuck in.The Famous Docket chickpea chips are a definite 100% glad to see them still on the menu! And with a seasonal wild garlic Dunking dip, then we moved on to a dainty delicious beef tart!After the beer bread come a well cooked scallop and then a delicious tasting trout!Having seen quail on the menu I was looking forward to this one ! As I don't get to see quail much on menus when I eat out! Both pieces of quail breast and leg was absolutely ridiculously succulent!The next was probably one of the best cheese courses I've ever had ! It was only one type of cheese, but that burrata and them tomatoes was divine.Having being an Absolute fan of raspberries eating the desserts was bang on delicious! Sweet & sour and with a crumbly crunchy base.Then to finish the night off was some summer flavour jelly sweets.It was really nice to come back there! The front of house was so pleasant and engaged with you which made you feel relaxed and contented.

Having experienced the taster menu along with the wine paring I have to say that the whole thing was superb……. It’s not very often that you struggle to choose a favourite course and we couldn’t here. Who would have thought that such a high standard was on our doorstep!! We’ll be back!

Our party of 4 (all foodies!) visited Docket No 33 on the last night of a short break in Shropshire. I rarely book restaurants that only have a tasting menu as I'm a fussy eater but having been very impressed by the chef/owner, Stuart Collins, on the Great British Menu I really wanted to try the restaurant. I am so glad I did, every course was fantastic and the overall experience was absolutely wonderful.From the amazing chickpea chips with wild garlic and dry aged beef with white soy and truffle, excellent bread, beautiful scallops, soft, perfectly cooked quail breast with a lovely confit'ed leg, to the smoothest of smooth raspberry cremeaux, everything was faultless. The little pear beignet served as a petit four was the best beignet I've ever had, light and fluffy and a great end to a memorable meal.The wines we chose (we didn't have the accompanying wine flight) were also excellent. The service was perfect, the 3 hours we spent there flew by and we never felt rushed but neither were there any long gaps, each course flowed seamlessly into the next. Frances was a lovely hostess and Stuart left the kitchen at the end of the evening to speak to the diners. It's honestly hard to overstate how brilliant the whole evening was - food and service was just right, all in all a really slick operation. If ever in the area again, the first thing I'd do would be to book a table here.

Fantastic tasting menu with drinks pairing and cheese course. New tastes and ingredients, served with minimal fuss, but massive enthusiasm by a knowledgable and dedicated team.We cannot wait to go back, the ethos of local quality ingredients shines through, right down to an amazing beer bread and butter served with our Scallops.The wines took us all around the world from Kent to Spain, Greece and New Zealand, chosen with real skill by Frances and the team to bring the dishes to life.We feel blessed to have this quality of food on our doorstep.

We love everything about Docket 33 from the creative and beautifully prepared food, to the wine pairings and the genuinely warm and welcoming team. Today we went to enjoy Stuart’s winning central region menu from “the Great British menu”. It was everything we expected and so much more. Truly outstanding. Fresh local produce transformed into stunning dishes which are creatively presented - and accompanied by delicious wines. Why go anywhere else !!

Lovely people producing high quality meats. It’s difficult to pick a favourite as everything we bought here was delicious. Really well flavoured salamis, prosciutto and coppa and definitely try the black bacon cured in molasses for a really top notch breakfast. Also stocks a small range of good, mostly local preserves, cheeses and eggs.

Really friendly pub, I was greeted by Caroline at the bar who was really happy. After a long day at work and away from home this was a lovely welcome. The mix grill was really good value and enjoyable. I will definitely come again.

They took our order wrong so I , 1of 4 didn't get my pizza with the other 3 meals , when I asked about my meal they said that I didn't order my meal ?? When I eventually got my pizza it had obviously been microwaved as it was still frozen in the centre, pathetic service and food standard , they will be reported to the authorities about their complete lack of professionalism, a disgusting venue please avoid this place
