Ego at the Grapes, Shrewsbury in Shropshire

The food was delicious and service was brilliant. Staff were friendly and helpful, atmosphere was very nice too. We will definitely go again

Always good food an good atmosphere

Lovely meal as always, I had the goats cheese pizza and chocolate brownie for my dessert, both was excellent as always, a warm welcome by staff and despite the restaurant being so busy we didn't have to wait long for our meals, absolutely love coming here, one of my favourite places, will see you again soon.

Nice range of food and drinkd, good service

Our regular Fridsy post-tennis lunch was another great success. Especially outstanding were the efficiency and friendliness of all the waiting staff, especially Emily on this occasion. A special mention to chef Richard whose haddock we all agreed was perfect with beautifully succulent haddock and crispy batter. Looking forward to next time. Thank you. Granville Stacey

Good menu choices. Nice food but experience spoiled by poor service. Long wait for our food order to be taken. Our server had to be asked twice for some water. A second carafe of water came without ice. The server seemed bored. Long wait for our main courses, which I think were actually ready at the kitchen but not being collected by our server. After we finished our main courses our plates remained uncollected for a long time. Meanwhile the server was clearing other tables & resetting but using her hand at times to handle the prong end of the fork! Not acceptable!

Chips we had today were very poor .. hard and over cooked . The supposedly large portion was anything but , Shame this place used to be good ...

Lovely food and friendly staff all round. Great experience 👍

Really disappointed with the Sunday lunch very small amount of pork Roasted veg which I hate we have been several times previously although not for Sunday lunch and always been pleased with what we’ve had Sunday lunch for me is one to avoid their

Absolutely spot on 2 for 30 quid on a Wednesday...... Will be back again

Had a great meal here with friends while staying locally Friday 4th October. The food was delicious and the service was top notch, the staff were friendly and the meals came out promptly. Would definitely recommend if you're in the area.

Only had a coffee there today . But interior looked lovely . Will have a meal there soon.

Had not been here for years and so glad I returned after a friend recommended the roast! The food was amazing and service was brilliant. Although the wrong order arrived for my brother, the staff were apologetic and returned 5 minutes later with the correct order. Would 100% recommend their Sunday roast and will be trying other foods on the menu next time!

I ordered off the prix menu but was charged full price for both courses. Unfortunately I was with guests so did not realise until we arrived home. VERY ANNOYED! Will you contact me?

As usual, a very good meal, all four of us enjoyed their own choice of meals, we had good, and very pleasant, efficient service. A wide choice of dishes. The only downside was the level of noise, a friend of ours has hearing aids, he found it difficult to follow conversations due to back ground noise. We appreciate the room was full, and busy, so do not expect this to spoil our future enjoyment.

The food is always amazing, and great value.

Super service..excellent afternoon tea.Special.thanks Emily..so welcoming and kind.Food just gorgeous Thank you

Mixed this visit. Soup was tepid , sent back and it was perfect. Very tasty. Goat cheese starter was lovely too. Fish n chips as always very good. Tea for two didn't work out well.A half pot of hot water , two cups but no teabags! A little disappointed this month, staff were helpful. Attention to detail needs to be better x

Excellent Sunday lunch, couldn't fault it. The gravy in my view was the star, rich and flavoursum.

A fabulous experience, yet again. Food excellent, staff attentive and polite, ambience most agreeable. In all a truly enjoyable afternoon.

Main course was Luke warm , relatively expensive

Lovely place food and service excellent. A favourite of ours when staying at Oxon Hall Campsite .

Very good service and food was lovely as always

Had a lovely meal out with my family. Food was delicious, service was really good and lovely atmosphere and seat reserved. Emmi even came over to me as she saw I had a pushchair and recognised I’d called that day with a query. Will definitely be going again. Thank you!

Staff were very attentive and advised of which was best deal to take. Food was delicious!!

Chose here for our date night dinner when visiting Shrewsbury last week. It was our first visit and certainly won’t be our last! Next time we are in the area we will definitely be back. The food was delicious, atmosphere brilliant, yummy cocktails and staff incredibly kind and helpful. Even better, they are super dog friendly and the staff made a fuss of our two each time they came to the table! We were holidaying in the area and had to bring our dogs due to restrictions at the accommodation meaning we couldn’t leave them unattended. We were seated in a quiet corner which was perfect and meant limited disturbance to our dogs. The food was generous in portion sizes and reasonably priced. Extra sauces provided when requested and the cocktail menu is fabulous! The Lemon Drizzle and hanging kebabs are a must try. 5/5 ✨

That gravy… i had not been well and needed a lovely meal to feed me up. Lovely roast, lovely company, lovely ambience. A current favourite, thank you!!

Was a lovely evening as usual, one of my favourite restaurants. Good food and atmosphere. Service is always a little slow but staff are friendly and polite.

Food was excellent aswell as the service

Amazing as always. Even though the restaurant was busy service was great and all staff were smiling and happy. Food was brilliant.

Nice atmosphere, pleasant and attentive staff. Food excellent.

Lovely venue and very attentive service. Good food and prices in line with todays market

Nice decor, pleasant helpful staff, great food, but music much too loud especially when put on at a table underneath the speaker, causing us and people around us to have to shout to be heard. A bit chaotic on a Wednesday, as it’s the meal deal, which is great value but it gets busy, noisy, had to wait a while between courses and it’s difficult to park as limited spaces considering the size of the restaurant. The staff remained pleasant and helpful regardless of the demands placed upon them.

Fabulous dining experience , food & service were first class , def going back , highly reccomended

Monday special almost too good to be true. Pan-fried chicken and Moroccan Lamb. Cooked to perfection. Went early so not too busy.

Mixed review. Food excellent. Ambience relaxed. Service to table poor. Attended at 7.00pm. Waited till 7.45 for starters. Main course not served till 8.50. On arrival it was clear busy evening. Waitress very pleasant and apologetic but clearly too many patrons that were having to wait for food. Staff even advised on arrival,they " had run out of water jugs" so were continually waiting for glasses to be refilled with water. Restaurant needs to better manage table bookings to avoid really good food being let down by timely service to table.

Awful dining experience - pate with BURNT black toast - then waited nearly an hour for main course obviously they were over booked . Birthday meal.

After years of eating and drinking at the grapes while using the nearby campsite we were looking forward to our evening meal. Our drinks order was taken and came straight away then there was over a 20 minute wait for somebody to come and take our food order. People came in after us and were served before us, it was as if we were invisable. Starter was delicious, main was preheated and chewy. Then we had to wait almost half an hour to get the bill, we weren't asked if we wanted it, I ended up asking a passing waiter (not our waitress who was too busy flirting with the cooks!) Wont be going back

Excellent light meal. Every was perfectly cooked and tasty. One small point; one of the coffees was served cold but it was quickly replaced without fuss. Will go again.

Love this place perfect for a lunch, staff attentive but not in your face, food great and reasonably priced.

Exceptional staff here. They work so hard and are very pleasant. We ate there 2 nights and both nights looked fully booked. Food was delicious. Very impressed.

I booked for a Birthday treat after recommendations from friends. We were not disappointed at all. The food, atmosphere was brilliant. The only comment I have is on arrival the booking comments for allergies was ignored and we had ask about the gluten free menu.

We dined in on the 11/09/24 . We used our £50 voucher which we received as a gift in January for our 50th golden anniversary. We have been unable to use it until recently because I’ve been recovering from Chemotherapy. We decided to go for the meal deal and added a bottle of wine. Our starters were fine however my husband’s steak was extremely chewy. To be fair the waitress changed it . But of course this left me eating while my husband waited . On a positive I chose Moroccan Lambs & it was fine . Meal arrived however still chewy so consequently he didn’t eat it . We decided to just pay with our voucher & leave . My husband was not charged for his meal which was a positive . However we both felt your steaks were not good enough as I tried both steaks & agreed they were both chewy . We will dine again just to use the rest of our voucher up . Hopefully we won’t be disappointed . Kind regards Marian Yapp

The staff were friendly. welcoming and efficient. The food and wine were excellent. The Birthday Treat was a great bonus.

Excellent quality food with a very quick service, well worth a visit.

The main course was (unusually) disappointing. The sea bass was overcooked and the potatoes even more so to the point of being inedible. We then had desert which was good.

Although it was very busy everything was very organised and food was excellent very well trained and efficient staff.

Went on Thursday Kebab night and the peri peri chicken I had was very substantial and tasty.

Great food and staff are great.

Excellent service, quality of food and beer definitely worth a visit - great value for money too! They do various offers through the week so plan and book ahead

My friends and I were given an Ego gift card as an end of school year thank you pressie. What a treat to have such a thoughtful and generous gift, amplified by the delicious food, wonderful service and lovely atmosphere that Ego delivered and the gift provided. Ego always delivers on delicious food, lovely helpful happy staff and a great atmosphere.

Excellent meal staff very helpful and pleasant. very good value. Especially the cocktails. Will definitely return and recommend.

The occasion was a celebratory birthday lunch. The support and help beforehand was excellent and the venue ideal. Everything seemed to go to plan and all guests seemed very impressed. Compliments regarding the food were nothing but good, amazing and very satisfied. The attentive service was thoughtful and carefully timed so that no one either had to wait.

Food was left waitress walked past it several times before delivering it too the table, therefore it was cold when arrived. Drinks came quickly

We’ve been a few times to the Grapes, and enjoyed our meals. The welcome and service was very good, and the food excellent. We will be back again!

Excellent Sunday lunch with family last week food was great,my beef was a little over done for me,even though it said pink but other than that it was perfect

Came here in February. Lovely meal lovely atmosphere. Will deffo be returning.

Loved this place, probably my favourite menu options I've seen. Stayed at a nearby campsite... we'll definitely return. Lovely food, brilliant service, and reasonably priced. Bonus: Dogs allowed too.

Just eaten there with my husband really friendly efficient staff excellent food will definitely be going back

Food quite bland Most staff lovely , one VERY RUDE waitress Out of town

Very busy for a week night Friendly staff. Steak was a bit tough

Staff very efficient and friendly. Good atmosphere with happy diners. Nice bar area to relax in after the meal. Food delicious, Recommended.

Heard some good things, but it was very underwhelming. Hardly ate my main, told the waitress it was dry. Nothing done. Won't be going back.

Fantastic meal and plenty of it. Very pleasant atmosphere, staff really friendly and helpful. Would definitely recommend the Ego to everyone.

Lovely food...Great idea having a under 5s menue and an over 5s menue...my two small grandsons had spaghetti bolagnaise.....with garlic bread...I had king prawn chilli linguini...was beautiful. Rhubarb and gin crumble was perfect.... Will definitely be back

Can't fault brilliant promotions and of course great service and value.

Excellent food, really friendly and helpful staff. Great menu.

We attended a family birthday party in the function room. Staff could not have been more helpful and allowed us to stay all afternoon. Food was not very exciting. But it's a good venue for a get-together.

Very busy for a Monday night, staff friendly but difficult to get their attention.

We had a delicious meal here and really enjoyed the service. Big compliment to the chef and the service. Today it was very warm outside, which also made it very warm inside.

Lovely dog friendly pub/restaurant with good outside beer garden, visited twice while staying at Oxon touring park only a 10 minute walk away, great food and very helpful friendly staff 😋

Went here for my birthday food was beautiful

Came here for Fathers's Day and the meals were fantastic. Was very busy but the staff were exemplary and the service was prompt and professional. Would definitely recommend.

Reasonable menu beer selection and prices large dining area

Lovely food with friendly service & a great dog friendly area .

Great service. Delicious food. We have had the hanging kebabs before so we opted for something different. I went for the duo of pork in a mustard sauce with Dauphinoise potato, really tasty. Melting meat and a non overpowering sauce. My partner had the Moroccan lamb and cous cous. He said the lamb was soft and some of the best cous cous he had had. It was full of fruit and Bejeweled with pomegranate seeds. I nearly forgot the starters .... I had the grilled goats cheese on brioche which came with an earthy, smoky beetroot jam, loved it. The beetroot cut through the goats cheese perfectly. My partner had the roasted pepper soup with fresh bread; he said it tasted really fresh and warming and sweet. The service was faultless, attentive without being intrusive. They have obviously been trained well as they all had excellent attention to detail. Looking forward to going back. 😍

Our favourite go to place fantastic food service excellent quality 👌

Sunday roast - below average at best. Starter prawns (Gambas Al Pil Pil) swimming in far too much oil. The Lamb rump roast which is a £4 additional turned out to be the same kind of meat you find the packs of pre-marinated slices of minted lamb you get from the supermarket ie the 3 packs for £10 on the BBQ special offers aisle. I would have expected at least slices from a in-house roasted joint of lamb but these were definitely not. Runny cauliflower cheese, pretty bland tasteless veg. The venue and atmosphere is nice and desserts are okay but I wouldn’t go back here to eat, there are much better roasts out there.

I just love the Ego at the grapes. Its our go to place, especialy for birthdays. The food is exceptional and theres such a choice plus you get a free birthday meal if you sign up with them. Plus lots of offers too. The staff are so helpful and friendly. Nothing is too much for them. Great place, great venue, great food. Lots of parking outside. Whats not to love about this place. It also caters for all dietry needs. Plus its child friendly. Also theres no steps, so its wheelchair friendly as well.

Great food, great ambience, fab staff!

We went to the grapes for Sunday lunch today and were really impressed. Lovely food, would highly recommend the lamb and servings were plentiful. The service from Adam was excellent, possibly the best service we've recieved for a long time. we will definately return! Thank you

Fantastic flavourful Sunday roasts. We had a good mixture of meats on our table with each person offering to share as it was so good. Staff were helpful and very friendly. Everything in the restaurant was clean and tidy. We didn't have to wait long before we asked to order aswel as in between courses. Will definitely be going back.

The food is lovely can't go wrong

Good service, and quick delivery. I will admit that part of the order had been forgotten but still arrived later. And the food was good but not hot. We will still be returning.

Had a family celebration. Great food and attentive staff. Slightly disorganised at times.

Came here for lunch on a Tuesday and it was quite busy, fortunately we were able to get a table for the two of us. The server we had was very good, unfortunately I can't remember her name - she had black hair tied up in a bun/bouffant. I had Calamari starter with Fish and Chips both of which were very good portions and delicious. My mum had Chicken Milanese and a lemon desert both of which she enjoyed. Very good value for money and brilliant customer, would definitely recommend.

Calling in for a meal. Great service, great food and at a price that did not hurt the pocket....

Excellent meal, good value, and very engaging staff who went beyond to make us welcome. Especially as we had a 3 and 1 year old with us... Will go back soon!

Our first visit last night. Highly recommended. Beautiful food. Great service. Fantastic atmosphere. Very much looking forward to our next visit.

Very nice just came in for drinks

We had a fantastic time here, thank you to all the staff for making us so welcome and for such amazing food! We want for a family birthday and had the Sunday dinner options, although our 10 year old did the make your own pizza. Which was perfect for her! The roast beef option was epic! With the beef done perfectly, tasty gravy and all the trimmings you would expect. We thought this was well priced. You can have the rest of the menu to, but not as.good value on a Sunday, but the quality of the chicken dish my wife had was really food. Ample parking here and I would highly recommend 👌

Lovely place!! Service was excellent, the team were very accommodating. We were a party of 8 as part of a pre hen do lunch and were made to feel very welcome!

Not a bad place food good beer good price good give it a try.

We visited twice, one to celebrate a birthday,one to just have a meal. Both nights were busy, recommend you book before you go. The team were helpful and friendly and the food and drink were excellent.

We usually love Ego at the Grapes but today our party was disappointed. The portions were smaller and our favourite dessert, crème brulee has been taken off the menu. Shocking!

The sunday lunch we had was fantastic, large portions of food and the young lady who looked after us was spot on every time. Highly recommended
