Draper's Hall Restaurant in Shropshire

The best Sunday lunch ever! Have also had lunch and dinner here before and cannot fault anything, food and service are amazing. Would definitely recommend 🤩

Lovely coffee in superb setting with lovely staff.

Stunning, as always. Thanks guys!

Fantastic atmosphere, amazing food 👌

The service and location are excellent. There's very little to dislike about the food (apart from the terribly scrapy plates!) My major quibble is the price which I felt is too much for what you get, particularly the wine. HArd to fault in many ways but excellent Sunday lunches are available at a more competitive price in the area.

Decent food, nicely prepared and well presented in lovely surroundings. Vastly over priced wine. Having been a few times now I won't hurry back as there are other, more competitively priced options available

Had our work Christmas party here. The food was fantastic and the service was amazing.

Visited back in February for birthday celebrations. Very lovely food, traditional rather than delicate patisserie style. Friendly staff, nice surroundings in the great hall.

Visited here for a large group afternoon tea, the sandwiches and cakes were tasty, although the numbers were a bit odd (3 of some sandwiches, 4 of others). The only thing that let it down was slow service with tea and coffee, we also had someone who is vegan with us, they catered for them with food but couldn’t offer any dairy free milk which was a shame, if you offer to cater for a vegan person I’d expect them to provide an alternative to standard milk for drinks.

Had a great night here with my wife. Food, service, drinks, and atmosphere were all brilliant. Its not a cheap place to spend a night, but for a special occasion it is exceptional

Myself and 3 friends visited this week for afternoon tea. WOW! We were blown away the sandwiches & cakes were amazing and could definitely tell they had been baked fresh that morning! Presentation was superb. We cannot wait to return :)

Lovely setting and food good but service disappointing. No one to meet and greet just went in and hung about until we went to the bar to let them know. Tried to sit us in a draughty doorway near the till. Food arrived promptly and was good but only 4 stars as the service was minimal for a fairly expensive restaurant I’d expect excellent service.

Stayed for 2 nights and had the tasting menu on the 1 night. Lovely room. Fantastic food. Excellent service, very attentive and friendly. Shrewsbury is a really interesting place to explore. Definitely recommend staying and eating here.

Lovely old hall in middle of Shrewsbury with lots of atmosphere, bar, beamed ceiling and black and whitebTudor building little passage way. Delicious afternoon tea with excellent selection, we couldn’t eat it all. Lovely chocolate truffles. Next time we’ll try their Sunday lunch

We stayed at Draper's Hall last weekend, and treated ourselves to a meal for my partner's birthday. The food was beautiful, with a lovely menu with great vegetarian choices. However the service badly let it down on several occasions.Firstly, we ordered a cocktail at the bar. On bringing it over, the barman spilled my drink all over my phone. He apologised, but then did nothing! It was left to my partner to go and ask for a cloth. Eventually a waitress came over with some serviettes - but this wasn't enough to wipe the sticky cocktail off my phone. Luckily it wasn't damaged - but the barman should have come to clean up his mistake and should have offered me a replacement drink. He took no responsibility.The amuse bouche was lovely, and I was enjoying it immensely until the waitress took it away while I was literally still eating it! I should have said something, but equally in a restaurant of this caliber I shouldn't have had to.No exaggeration (I looked at my watch!), we waited 55 minutes between our starter and our main course. During this time there was no explanation offered, and no apology was given. This is simply unacceptable. Finally we ordered port with our cheese board, but it didn't arrive until we had nearly finished the cheese. Why such a wait? All of these failings could be easily rectified with better training of staff, and better supervision. Management were notably absent during the entire evening.We weren't the only ones experiencing slow service that night - a group of 4 who were sitting when we arrived, were still eating their main course when we had left our table!We loved the food, but the experience was marred by repeated examples of poor service which fell well below our expectations from such an expensive restaurant.

Stayed here by chance a few nights ago. Lovely place. Building is amazing almost 400 years old!!! Staff were very friendly. I had a burger in the bar. Very good. Good beer. Will stay here again whne I'm next in town

My partner and I stayed here overnight. We were checked in my Anto who was very friendly and professional. We stayed in the walnut room. Lovely old fashioned room with Asian influences. We had a cocktail in the bar before dinner. Was very nice. Dinner was outstanding. Steak was the best I've ever tasted. Fantastic apple crumble souffle for desert.Breakfast was also lovely.Would highly recommend

Called in for lunch today,decided on ham sandwiches but no ham available! Food was ok. Asked for house red wine,was given a choice so went with merlot,when the bill came £8.50 for a 175ml glass,first glass had sediment in it which when we complained we were told it was normal,really?Paid the bill then told they’d missed the vat off so had to pay more before we left. Will not be back.

We chose Drapers Hall for a special night in Shrewsbury over the festive period. I had warned them in advance of my dietary requirements and was very specific.

Despite the fact that there had been a private function for lunch of around 80 the staff were really welcoming especially the Front of House Manager also we had not booked a table. The service was really fabulous. The dining room is beautiful and enhanced by the subtle but effective Christmas decorations. The menu was updated as we had pre dinner drinks in the cosy bar. Great menu choices too and beautifully presented food. Can't wait to re-visit. A wonderful experience

We stayed on the Orange room for one night and booked in to the restaurant for our evening meal. The location is great, being in the centre of town, everything is within a few minutes walk (Station is under 10 min walk).

The best ‘it’s not the office’ party we’ve had in years! Superb food and charming attentive staff made for a fantastic evening for 18 friends.

Having had our wedding reception at the Drapers Hall in 2018 (see photo), my wife and I decided to go back last night for a celebratory meal. What a lovely experience we had!

It was lunchtime, we enjoyed a great atmosphere, good food, value for money......all in a lovely environment.

Popped for Saturday lunch, did not realise they had just started to open at lunchtimes. Nice menus based on a Smorgasbord. We selected the rare beef, pastrami and the scottish rarebit, all very nice. The beef was cooked perfectly. Scottish rarebit very rich but lovely. Nice class of fizz to go with it by the log burner very pleasant way to spend a cold wet lunchtime. Staff were pleasant and very attentive. HIghly recomend.

My husband booked us into the Drapers for bed and breakfast as part of a long weekend trip. We were greeted by the brilliant manager, introducing himself as Cat for short. His friendly professional manner immediately made us feel welcome and cared for. Our room and the whole building was just wonderful. We enjoyed the whole experience and we will definitely be returning as soon as we can!

Another wonderful stay, rooms have had some refurbishment done as well. So even better than last time. Also restaurant menu had changed. I believe it changes continually. Lovely autumn dishes. Chanterelle pithivier was a particular delight Thanks again

Delightful, historic place to stay! Great staff and food while the rooms have been beautifully updated and yet kept so many of the features of the original old building. It is also perfectly placed to explore Shrewsbury on foot.

Had dinner here recently and found the occasion to be very stimulating; the surroundings are fascinating. A bottle of prosecco Fabio Ceschin (£29) to start with (there were four of us) got things under way and the amuse bouche was a small bowl of parsnip veloute with almonds, plus beetroot bread with truffle butter. I had a pig's trotter croquette, then beer battered plaice fillets with pont neuf potatoes, both very tasty and very filling. Also consumed by the others were celeriac veloute with truffle and beef wellington, rabbit and chicken breast, pumpkin tortellini and Aberdeen Angus steak. The beef wellington was enormous, say almost four inches of fillet in two pieces in pastry (a doggy bag was requested, so the uneaten part was consumed later by our friend's labradoodle!) - at £32 this was not a cheap option, tasty indeed but overgenerous for us. My rhum baba was very dry and I would venture to say that it had somehow avoided the rum syrup - I mentioned this to the waiter but got no reaction. We also had a bottle of pinot grigio from the Veneto and a Viuda Negra crianza 2016, both very good. At £60+ each this was fair but I thought the meal lacked a bit of finesse.

Drapers Hall held my Mothers 90th Birthday party in their restaurant.There were 23 of us for the occassion.The restaurant is very atmospheric and has plenty of space. The food was a set menu, pre -ordered prior to the event and was of a very high standard, it was delicious.All our food came out in a timely manner and the staff at Drapers were very efficient and attentive to the guests.Drapers were extremely helpful in advising wine selections.Cat is an excellent Head of house and I cant thank him and his team enough for helping make my Mothers Birthday a very memorable occassion. I wouldn't hesitate in recommending Drapers for an event or an evening meal to anyone from Shropshire or anyone visiting. Thank you Drapers Hall.I will be back in the near future for sure.

Having been here a year ago and was impressed from my last experience, it was a no brainer to definitely book a table once again!!

I didn't know about this place and only found it whilst looking for a last minute place I could book online, but I'm glad we did. First of all, the building, just off a quiet street in the town centre, is very olde-worlde and interesting, oak beams and ancient paintings. Then, they cooked a special vegan meal for my wife, soup, a plate of roast veg and a fruity dessert, all beautifully presented and full of strong flavours. I had scollops, halibut and a chocolate cake, equally tasty, all decent sized plates too. Special mention to the sommelier who dissuaded us from the more expensive wine as we wanted a smooth silky one. In the end we had two bottles :) An excellent meal, we'll be back!

Visited Drapers last night for a meal for no particular reason with a friend. The service was impeccable from beginning to end, drinks in the bar first and then dinner in the restaurant. The place looks lovely, new velvet chairs are glamourous and warm up the room, the atmosphere was inviting and intimate without being stuffy. The food was outstanding, really really good, the service was attentive without being over the top. Ten out of ten! New favourite restaurant!

My wife and I stayed at this lovely historic restaurant with rooms for an autumn break. The room we enjoyed was very quiet and comfortable despite its location being conveniently in the centre of the town. Breakfast options were outstanding and we also enjoyed good bar meals on two evenings. Staff were friendly and gave exceptional service. We look forward to returning to this little gem.

C'est un restaurant d'un très bon niveau dans un bâtiment historique, avec une carte relativement attractive. Les plats sont bien préparés et présentés. Par conséquent, le prix n'est pas bon marché, mais encore acceptable.

The venue was quiet, and the service efficient and unobtrusive. Very good ambience. Food was enjoyable.

From start to finish this was a superb experience!

I took my now Fiancée here to celebrate our engagement and it couldn’t of been more perfect. Fantastic service, amazing food and great atmosphere. They couldn’t of done any more to make it more special for us. It’s worth it. Will be back soon!

Food Excellent, Dessert was a little too rich for me but starters and main courses went down a treat with the whole family. Staff ever so friendly and so attentive would highly recommend. Wasn’t busy so pretty much had the best table in the house and got to chose which one we would prefer. Had welcome champagne as requested and a Happy Birthday plate at the end. The chefs also gave us complimentary food before our starters and at the end of the meal which was a nice touch. The food was well spaced out and this to me seemed like everything was cooked from fresh. This isn’t the cheapest restaurant in town but is definitely worth a visit for those extra special occasions.

Visited Drapers Hall last night for the first time with a friend. We both had a great evening, the service was exceptional. The food was delicious and as for the ambience it was fantastic. We visit many restaurants around the Shrewsbury/Ludlow area and this tops them all so far. We are coming back very soon, Look forward to see you soon.

The hotel is absolutely lovely and very atmospheric. Our room was clean and comfortable and the bathroom was very stylish and modern. I thought the TV was so tiny that sitting up in bed, or in one of the comfortable armchairs, I needed my long-distance glasses to be able to see what's on the screen. I'm not a great breakfast eater but my scrambled eggs on toast was delicious. Good coffee too. Likewise, my partner was not disappointed with his full English. Thoroughly recommended.

Popped in for a drink into this deserted bar.

I have stayed here before and decided to bring my partner for the weekend. We stayed in the wool suite. Lovely room. Ate in the bar the first night and enjoyed some fantastic food and cocktails. Second night we ate in the alacarte restaurant, was truly incredible. The menu is varied and food looked and tastes amazing. We also had some fantastic wine. Service was impeccable.

We visited on a Friday evening. My husband and i both opted for the taster menu and my husband also had the wine flight.

Wow! What can I say? This place is fab!

We had our wedding reception here in 2010, it was fabulous,. We often go back for lunch, the food is superb and of course the atmospher unique. However this week we had a table for four at lunch, the antipasto was very boring and expensive, unimaginative food at a highish price equals in my opinion poor value and a disappointing experience for our friends who we were introducing for the first time. I was embarrassed. Pull your socks up Drapers, we don't mind paying for wonderful food but uninspired food we really don't expect. A very unfortunate experience.

A wonderful restaurant to spend the evening with friends. Firstly drinks in the bar and then WOW the food was so delicious! Richard Nair is a brilliant chef. We all agreed that we’d had superb time at Drapers Hall. Definitely hope to return very soon.

Had dinner with friends at the Drapers Hall.

The Italian taster menu was delicious and the wine went beautifully with each dish. Thank you for a wonderful dining experience. A unanimous favourite was the seafood cannelloni. We love eating here and can’t wait for the next surprise tasting menu!

The veal Sweetbreads. The Wiggmore Tortellini. The Pea Tart. Everything is a must try. Great wine list. Staff were lovely. What more do you need.

Wife and I visited for a birthday treat, the food was fantastic and the service excellent. The attention to detail was faultless and made for a great night, we will defiantly be coming back. Thank you to the staff and chef

It's a lovely location; an atmospheric space that gives a sense of history and occasion and the service is excellent. The food is priced at high end dining level and as such it should be executed with finesse and each dish should be cooked to perfection. I didn't feel that ours were. I love scallops and in this instance I felt they were a tad overcooked. Not so much to mar the overall enjoyment of the dish but enough to question the £16 price tag for a starter. My Partners Wigmore Brie Tortellini on the other hand hit the mark perfectly. For our main courses my husband's slow roasted corn fed chicken had been roasted for a little too long and was bordering on dry. The pearl barley broth that accompanied it was definitely needed and probably saved the dish. My Loin of Welsh Lamb with a mini shepherds pie on the other hand was cooked to perfection. My only gripe here was the portion size of the lamb, it was very small. Desserts were my biggest disappointment. Over complicated, both in design and presentation. More attention I felt to the aesthetics rather than the marriage of ingredients and taste. Baked apricot with apricot mousse, lavender and hazelnut shortbread was my husbands choice and he said he enjoyed it. I tasted it and that small amount was too much for me. Lavender was the prominent flavour here so much so that I found it unpleasant. I had the celebration of strawberry but didn't find much to celebrate. Again the aromatics were too strong - a better dish than the apricot but disappoint for someone who likes a good pudding. Would I return, yes but I would order differently and hope the overall quality improves. It's nearly there but not quite.

We celebrated our 25th here. Lovely listed building. Service impeccable. Food impeccable. Perfect Drapers Hall - many thanks x

I was very pleased to find this restaurant.

We both had the vegetarian options. The starter was a very small portion and the main (sweet potato gnocchi) was bland with no sauce. Very disappointing. Good service but certainly wouldn’t recommend this place for vegetarians.

I stayed here for an overnight stay on business. Room was lovely , building is incredible. Ate in the restaurant. I was amazed at the quality of the food, I real gem to find. Will return

We stayed here for 2 nights, the staff were wonderful, very helpful. Breakfast was delicious and cooked perfectly. We had the bar menu on the first night as we had been traveling, it’s nice simple and well made dishes. The second night we had the alacarte menu. We were served some lovely beetroot and poppy seed bread with truffle butter and a tasty little snack of lamb belly while are starters were being prepared. I had the ceviche of mullet to start and wellington of roe deer for mains. We shared the passion fruit soufflé for desert, because we were too full to have one each. Everything was so tasty and beautifully presented. We will have to make the trip back now.

My partner and I recently dined at Drapers Hall at their 'Tasting Menu' evening. We began the evening with a G & T in the intimate courtyard by the bar,the perfect way to start a relaxing evening.

The surroundings are really nice and feel warm and homely, the bar and service is really good. The one main thing that lets the food down is the portion size, the lamb main at £26 so not cheap consisted of one carrot very small scoop of mash potato and 5 extremely small pieces of paper think lamb, the quaility and presentation of the food is very good but you will go home Hungary which when paying top money this leaves you feeling very disappointed and Hungary

Recently visited this splendid venue having recently moved down from Scotland with my wife. Having not knowing what to expect we were absolutely blown away with how beautiful the building is. We arrived on a busy Friday evening and taken to the bar where my wife and I had the most exquisite cocktails. Shortly after we were lead to our table by Chris (I think his name was, forgive me if I'm wrong). We went for the scallops starter which were cooked to perfection. For the main course my wife had the lamb and I chose the steak, both were amazing, cooked perfectly by the very talented chefs. Although my wife didnt have room for the dessert I opted for the chocolate tortelli which for me was the star of the show. Excellently executed and packed full of flavour. From start to finish from the atmosphere to the service to the food the whole evening was undoubtedly one of the best experiences we have had since moving down... that was absolutely fantastic

We would not normally visit a restaurant such as this as the prices are quite high for our budget but we had a voucher to use and it certainly didn't disappoint. The food was excellent, well presented and the service was as I would expect in such an establishment. Lovely surroundings in the main dining hall (we didn't visit the bar) and overall a good choice to use our gift.

"Fine Dining" is a frequently used culinary description which, in my experience, more often than not fails to deliver - Drapers Hall certainly is a fine dining venue that truly delivers in every sense; not only are the dishes inventive, imaginative and delicious, they are expertly prepared and presented. The result is a gastronomic treat for the eye, nose and palate. My favourite experience is to indulge in the tasting menu with wine flight, where every course has an accompanying glass of specially selected wine to compliment the dish, mmmmm fantastic and great for a special occasion. On my most recent visit I noticed they also offer a "Casual Dining Menu" which compares favourably with the offerings of, might I say, lesser establishments but in the unique setting of this fine medieval building, you will really experience the wow factor. Whether you are local or just visiting, you really should treat yourself and dine at Drapers Hall for a memorable experience. My favourite restaurant and for good reason.

I had heard lots of good things about Drapers Hall so decided to find out what all the fuss was about. In truth I was expecting the same old story - 'fine dining' restaurants trying hard to blag their way through but ultimately cutting corners and failing to pull it off. It must be said that I was wrong, Drapers hall is nothing like the other restaurants in Shropshire.

My partner and I had a lovely evening out at Drapers Hall. On a chilly June evening the fire was lit and the welcome warm and friendly. The food was excellent - a fine 3-course meal - and I especially liked the combination of duck breast with rhubarb, We were only on a two-day break to Shrewsbury otherwise we would patronise this place regularly.

My husband and I had a wonderful 3 course meal here for his birthday. Fantastic food, great wine available and beautiful venue. The staff were very attentive and we loved the whole evening. The scotch egg was particularly good!

This property was recommended to me by Martin from Shropshire Tours. I was delighted with the location, fine dining and my room. The service was friendly and caring. A Gem in the Shrewsbury area

We used the Drapers Hall as a base during a short visit to Shrewsbury. The building is full of historic interest but the rooms are up to date and comfortable.

As an itinerant Scotsman, I often gripe about the lack of "fine dining" (although it is not a term I am fond of) restaurants in Shropshire, believing that following the closing of Chequers in Montgomery, they no longer existed (notwithstanding a recent visit to The View at Hencote). I have visited Drapers Hall three times under it's current management in the last year or so, and chatted to the owner. On each occasion the food has been good, but service on the first occasion was patchy, and it was empty on the second occasion; when I had a fantastic fish and chips for lunch. The owners have taken the unusual stance of not compromising on the quality of the offer, and keeping things low key until they got it right. My recent dinner there with friends was excellent, with great service , in this historic space. Fine dining status achieved, and credit due for persistence in making it so [ review delayed by lassitude! ]

The food was fantastic and the service was impeccable. Beautiful medieval architecture, excellent cocktails and generous portions of delicious food, certainly made this date perfect. We will certainly be coming again!

We went to Drapers Hall for dinner with friends to celebrate a wedding anniversary.

Beautiful medieval architecture and superficial ambience can cover only so much. To call this restaurant “Fine Dining” is borderline delusional. I dread to think what type of ego monster prowls the kitchen if they think the food presented is anything but insulting. Uninspired conception, competent execution (1st grade catering college more like) and lazy contemptuous presentation. If you call yourself fine dining, then you’d better have the game to play. This chef doesn’t warrant warming the subs bench. £100 plus gets you;

We have just had an excellent meal and service at this very, very old building housing drapers restaurant.

We had the taster menu and it was fantastic. Every course was beautifully presented and absolutely delicious, the service was also excellent. I look forward to my next visit.

this is our second visit to drapers this year, and again it did not disapoint.

My partner and I and 2 friends visited on Saturday of the Easter weekend. The service and food were both extremely poor. We tried to order cocktails on arrival but these took over 30 minutes to arrive one at a time. I ordered the vegetarian main course of spinach gnocchi and was amazed to be served 3 pieces of gnocchi in total. This would have been small for a starter but as a £16 main course it was beyond a ripoff! The waitress agreed with me and apologised saying ‘the chef was trying the dish out’, she returned it to the kitchen for some potatoes to be added. My partner’s steak was very poor quality and the desserts were very basic. After nearly 3 hours we were served desserts. The bill was £65 per person including a bottle of wine we hadn’t ordered. The head waiter apologised for the disastrous evening explaining they had far too many covers on a Saturday night despite the staff warning the management! We will not be going back

We went here for Mother's Day - so five of us, including two teenagers one of whom is Vegan.

Now I love this restaurant and the atmosphere but I am fed up of being disappointed with the food and frankly some of the service . My wife and I visited a couple of weeks ago the third time this year , but from the outset it all seemed to much trouble to accommodate us.

The food tasted wonderful and although I can’t remember the names of the dishes, I do remember that they blew me away.

Everyone should try it at least once. You will find something on the menue you have never tried before. Cooked to perfection. One could argue that it is more expensive than some eateries, but you would have to go a long way to find plates of food so expertly put together. They are a feast for the eyes as well as the taste buds.

Came here to dine with a group of eight friends, had heard it was expensive and a tad pretentious, small portions, that seemed to be the gist of opinions of people. Glad to state it is not expensive, totally unpretentious and the portions are generous! Always best to try things first hand! Furthermore - the food is delicious (full of flavours, cooked to a tee and well presented!). The servers are all brilliant - engaging, smart, well informed and amazingly attentive, caring and focused. The trout starter I had was awesome, the Aberdeen Angus steak was devine! The room is amazing, very historic and the table we dined at was supposed to be 500 years old! RECOMMENDED! 10 out of 10! There seem to be private dining rooms upstairs.

We dined at Drapers yesterday evening as a party of 11 and had the most wonderful evening. Upon arrival we all had a gorgeous cocktail; I had a cosmopolitan and a French 95 and both were perfect.

4 of us went to Drapers Hall for dinner. We all had the taster menu at £60 per person. The food was nice but not worth £60. Especially when the cheapest wine was £32 a bottle. £40 would have been better value. We knew it was a taster menu but a single scallop for a fish course was a bit sparse. Service was fine and ambience good

My partner and i have not eaten at Drapers Hall for years, but friends of ours told it is well worth a try.

This restaurant has a very special ambience with service that is the very best I've experienced. Food was very good with a chef pushing close to Michelin standard cuisine. Highly impressed and will surely revisit when next in the area.

This was our first visit to Draper's Hall. We chose the a la carte (rather than the tasting) menu and enjoyed each course well enough. If you like dining in a novel, historic venue then you'll enjoy the location.

We visited Drapers Hall Restaurant last October and had such a brilliant experience with the taster menu and wine flight my wife and I couldn’t wait to take our family as part of an 80th Birthday celebration.

Nice to see such a great location finally being used to its potential with an excellent chef, great staff and a superb manager named Cat!

I enjoyed a wonderful pre-Christmas lunch here with my brother. We have a tradition of meeting for lunch in late November/early December. As Graham lives in Shrewsbury I travelled up from Abergavenny and we went to Draper's Hall.

We visited as a party of 4 on Sat 29th Dec. We chose to have the tasting menu which contained a nice variety of dishes. Our favourites were the chalk stream trout and pheasant courses but it was all very tasty and well presented. My only comment would be that we felt the portions were a little small, with the exception of the cheese board which was perfect for the four of us to share. The service while we were there was excellent, attentive but not over bearing.

we went as a group of 16 for a christmas party and had a room upstairs. The restaurant was beautifully decorated, so we expected something special. All the meals had been pre booked so the kitchen knew how many of each was ordered. The meals were small [very] and one guest asked about the size of his fish which was the main course as it was so small. It is overpriced and over rated. we have had better and more filling meals in pubs. you pay for the location and the name. will not be going there again.

As a party of twelve, we enjoyed the use of an upstairs private dinning room. Started with drinks and a variety of canapés. We had previously decided that everyone would have roast beef. What an excellent choice, with very good roast potatoes and root vegetables. A variety of puddings + cheese, followed. The red & white wines were very acceptable. The beef deserves a second mention, it was the tastiest and most tender, that I have ever eaten.

Booked hotel and private dining for nine family members. From the start after a slight language/booking hickup with Kat we were warmly welcomed by Rob Alex and of cos Kat. The rooms are to die for all individual and fabulous. The dinning was excellent with a private room served by the brilliant Jemima . Great food and wine all night and bar drinks later. After they had closed their doors myself joined the staff for a late drink and even a cheeky pizza slice ...Thanks Paul ! . Breakfast was ok but not enough staff to cope with 9 hungry people . waited far to long and when it did arrive eggs were hard . Need more staff please . Poor lady I think Alex? Was rushed off her feet bless her . Will back to Shrewsbury and will only stay at one place . Draper's

Beautiful atmospheric restaurant . All the staff were excellent, friendly, professional and informative about both the food and the wine. Service throughout our meal was outstanding. I had scallops for my appetizer cooked to perfection with a delicious veloute. My main of plaice was also perfect my only minor criticism being that it was served with sprouts- far to strong a flavour with this beautiful delicate dish. Flambe bananas for dessert were rich and indulgent. This was more than a meal it was an occasion. Quite expensive but for food and service of this quality it was well worth it

The food was outstanding, beautifully presented and tasted amazing! I had the ribeye for my main and it has got to be one of the best steaks I’ve ever had! Cooked to my liking, seasoned to perfection! Thoroughly enjoyed the food!!

Visited Drapers on Monday night and although the restaurant was quiet ( pre Christmas lull ? ) we had a fantastic time.

We booked a table for six to celebrate a birthday. The food was excellent and the two vegetarians were delighted with the dishes they had for starters and mains. Well cooked and beautifully presented. The waiter was attentive and helpful. The atmospheric environment contributed to a great night out.

A few years ago we stayed at the Drapers Hall overnight and were disappointed that we were unable to eat in the restaurant which was full .No problem ate elsewhere . So when we visited Shrewsbury recently we were able to dine in the restaurant .This is the first time I have ever written a review on Trip advisor or actually commented about a restaurant .However the service was absolutely terrible .Had a drink in the bar and told to come in when we were ready - great .However we could have been in the bar all night as far as staff were concerned .Our starter was delivered with the cutlery . Two hours later we had our main meal which was tasty but luke warm .We had a pudding but no one asked us if we wanted a coffee and by this time we both we felt we should just leave . In fact no one came to us during the meal to ask if everything was ok .Sometimes this can be a little annoying but when you are left to your own devices we really noticed the lack of attention .Very sorry to write this but please address these issues as it is such a gorgeous atmospheric venue. Despite all this we will try it once more !

Visited this restaurant as a party of six for my dad's 80th and couldn't fault the dining experience. The dining room feels welcoming and warm with a nice atmosphere. The staff are experienced, professional and friendly. The restaurant apparently changed hands in January 2018 and the new owner is obviously aiming to provide a high quality dining experienice using local suppliers. Each course was beautifully presented with beautiful range of flavours and textures. The emphasis is on quality not quantity but a three course meal was filling enough without feeling like you had over eaten

We visited Drapers at the end of September to celebrate my birthday and from the moment we were welcomed in, everyone seemed to go out of their way to make the evening feel very special.

As a party of five friends we were warmly welcomed and invited to enjoy a drink in the bar area before moving through to our table.
