Plume@Feathers in Shropshire

Perfect English tea rooms very popular with tourists and locals it seems. We wished we could have had time to visit for a second time! We will certainly pop in next time we are in the area. Marvellous hidden gem this is!

Had a lovely stay at this Pub/Hotel. The Suite was fabulous, very spacious & well thought out. Very quirky & full of character. The breakfast was lovely, very attentive staff & nothing too much trouble. There was a slight issue with the evening meal for 3 of us however the two staff who dealt with it (Grace and sorry didnt get the chaps name) were second to none. Completely rectified the situation so it was absolutely resolved without ruining our evening. Well done them!!! Would definitely stay again and loved Ludlow.

So disappointing - we were visiting for the day and saw this beautiful building with a tea room - after following the instructions to the entrance, we were met with a beige Starbucks. We were expecting an oldy-worldy tea room fitting the image of the stunning building

We intended to have just a cuppa, but the millionaire cheesecake stood out on the counter. It was rather good. A coffee and tea were good, but a tea strainer would have been nice. We really appreciated, in a medieval building having proper British crockery. Royal Kent, made in Staffordshire, with Allen Nelson made in England. Also Paragon, and a Meakin jug. There was something of tradition about the place , which was appreciated.

This wonderful tea room is housed in one of the most iconic buildings in England, which is 400 years old this year. We had a real Devonshire tea, with real, yellow clotted cream on our scones with jam. It was a real experience to be here!

Looking for a quick bite most places were closing at 2pm popped in welcomed by Excellent service and staff nice interior would recommend

Excellent professional and friendly service from David (hotel manager who was serving us today) mouthwatering food and welcoming spotless surroundings making our afternoon tea perfection at it's very best 100%😋

Have been this evening for the first time to the Feathers for Sunday lunch/dinner. Three courses £17.95 . Absolutely beautiful! Fantastic quality, generous portions, fabulous presentation. The staff couldn't have been more attentive. We will definitely be returning.

Wonderful food wonderful service, We went for afternoon tea and we were not disappointed . the cakes and sandwiches were perfect. Lovely place.

We were a party of 6 booked in for Boxing Day lunch, we were seated promptly and the table setting was beautiful the seats were so comfy and glad to say we weren’t squeezed in like sardines. Service was impeccable and I am pleased to...

We called to book a table to be told only 1 slot was available so I booked it next day I wanted to change the time so went on line only to find out there were times available all evening. We arrived ordered drinks at...

Waiting staff need training; there was a FOH manager (though not sure what his real job is) who stepped in once it was realised there was chaos in the lounge eating areas. Pleasant surroundings, place was full of casual lunchers and nice feel to hotel....

We called in for lunch and there was only one waitress. She was cashier, barista and took your order. The place was busy, it took fifteen minutes to get a cup of tea, another couple waited that long to get their order taken and one...

A recently renovated restaurant, quite stylish and spacious, lots of siting areas available. Very attentive staff members.

The main restaurant at The Feathers reopened six weeks ago, I am surprised that Tripadvisor still only has this entry for the Tea Room. The Feathers Hotel, near the top of Corve Street is a beautiful historic building, the restaurant has been sympathetically redecorated. We...

Visited here with my wife for an afternoon tea of super sandwiches, savoury scones and cakes, not forgetting a tea and coffee. It was a busy Saturday afternoon so we sat on comfy sofas by the fireplace in the hotel itself. Christmas decorations were up!...

The usual range of coffees and teas, cakes and pastries - leaf teas served rather pretentiously with a timer so you can judge the length of the brew process that suits you. Good service and a very good central location.

We booked an afternoon tea at the Feathers. We arrived early owing to the weather which was awful and didn't feel like walking around any further. We were treated to a cup of coffee each prior to the afternoon tea. The selection was brilliant, more...

The staff member who took payment was apologetic on receiving feedback of our poor lunch experience and voluntarily offered remuneration but we would rather have enjoyed a pleasant lunch as the alternative. After sitting and waiting a long time with empty tables in the lounge,...

Having dined in the hotel the previous two nights we called here for a coffee and cake late morning. Think it has been open about 6 months - a decent sized and nicely appointed coffee shop/tea room and whilst the service was a bit slow,...

The Feathers has had quite a lot spent on a refurbishment which is very nice. Staff were attentive and the hotel was nice and warm on a crisp November day. All 4 had the traditional cream tea. The sandwiches were tasty as was the scone...

Refurbished room is good and though expensive the coffee is tasty. Enjoying our visit until loud pop music started. Most inappropriate to have to sit with feet vibrating to the loud base of awful generic pop. Much too loud to chat comfortably. Such a shame.

What an indulgent experience but lovely! Service excellent, lovely greeting and very attentive. Excellent choice of sandwiches and cakes and delicious scones... a real blow out! So well done Feathers a lovely experience from start to end we would thoroughly recommend it if you have...

I had the pleasure of eating at the Feathers Hotel in Ludlow, the 17th century building is stunning and is currently undergoing a refit. If the rooms are as well finished as the rest of the building is then they will be beautiful. The food...

The lady who served us was a bundle of energy seeing to all her customer needs. Having had quite few afternoon teas in many different types of establishments it is difficult not to be super critical. There are two comments I would make one the...

The Feathers is now under new ownership so we thought we would give the tea shop a try. Well worth it! It aims for a high class standard and achieves it. Ludlow has needed a high quality tea shop since De Grays and this more...

Feathers Restaurant - excellent. We went on a Travel Zoo deal which was excellent value. The service at the Feathers is excellent, the premises have had an top drawer refurb (if you judge premises by their toilets then you will be well pleased). Sunday lunch...

Visited the main restaurant last night. Atrocious weather conditions probably accounted for us being the only diners. Whilst the bar lobby area is pretty standard hotel fare with some somewhat bizarre massive flower wall decorations, the dining room is well laid out and table appointments...

I visited the tea rooms at the Feathers in May and have been looking forward to visiting the newly opened restaurant since. Had a lovely afternoon tea celebrating a family birthday, staff were helpful and friendly and the food was delicious, especially the scones! Tonight...

Disappointing, as we used the Feathers before it closed, but now they chase you out once you've had your coffee. Shan't be going again for thr (very weak) coffee. Shame.

We visited for coffee on Saturday morning. The cafe was busy with a lovely atmosphere. The two waiting staff were polite and smartly turned out and brought menus to the table. We ordered two coffees and a tea cake to share. Whilst we were waiting...

We called in for a coffee and did not realise the builders are also working feet away. This did not stop first class service from the young man on duty. He served us with style and panache even though the building is being refurbished and...

We only called in becasue it was raining so had an early morning tea and cakes and all 4 of us enjoyed them. Only problem was on this visit to Ludlow we put on a few pounds, too many nice places to eat.

Fabulous ambience Attentive friendly polite manager Great prices 2.95 pot of tea with real tea leaves Scone and cake 2.95 and delicious. Clean modern seating are inside with nice furniture. The toilets are spotless modern and clean .

Modern contemporary decor,very clean with very attentive and courteous staff. Enjoyed mint leafed tea and egg bentict all excellently served and tasty. Enjoyed visiting beautiful Ludlow again.

A comfortable, warm place for a light meal or just a cup of coffee. Table service, daily papers. A good place to relax.

Visited later in the afternoon but still pleasantly greeted and seated. An excellent choice of food and drink in a lovely environment. Outside seating available. Food very good and very well served. Sensible prices too! Would certainly recommend and happily return.

Stopped off in Ludlow for afternoon tea. Found this tea room and glad we did. Excellent service and one of the best scones we've had in years. Would definitely go back.

We visited for afternoon tea and were pleased with the excellent service. They were very accommodating to different diets and gave me several vegetarian sandwich options which were yummy. Biggest scones I’ve ever seen!

Popped in for a cuppa and had a cream tea. So very polite and accommodating and the best scones I have ever tasted. Highly recommended

This is a great little cafe. People still dont seem to be visiting much, which is a shame, becauase its probably the nicest cafe in ludlow now.

Went for afternoon tea at feathers with my wife.Service very good and staff very warm and full of smiles.Afternoon tea was super and well served.Little things like the tea timer are nice little touches.The tea room is well set out and well lit.

Great to see part of the old Feathers opened back up again, and this time it looks like someone who cares about the business and service. In it's current guise the restaurant is badged as a Cafe/Bistro, which looks to work well. Team were really...

We decided to give the new tea room a try, with a visit for a full afternoon tea - sandwiches, scones, pastries. Decor is disappointingly modern, not at all in keeping with the exterior of the building. Service was a bit lackluster. But the food...

Recently refurbished to a very high standard, lovely courtyard out the back. Great service and tasty food washed down by a good pot of tea.

We popped in the day after it opened and had afternoon tea. Staff couldn’t do enough for us. Sat in the courtyard which was lovely. Will return the next time we’re in Ludlow

The feathers tea room is now open we popped in on Saturday 25th May 2019. The decor is lovely nice & fresh lovely courtyard at the back we had a tea coffee and lemon cake all lovely service was good too. It was quite busy...

The Feathers restaurant had gone from strength to strength in recent years, However, the Feathers has been closed for some time. It has been taken over by the Crest hotel group and after some refurbishment will open in spring 2019. I look forward to going...

You feel this hotels has seen better days in the past.A cramped location with intertesting archiecturte but very basic food and accomnodation.

excellent stay. staff wonderful. food really good, our little dog well catered for, all in all a really good break.

From the outside it looked quite good, however what it looked like inside I have no idea. It appeared closed down, both the restaurant and hotel, which I am not surprised at since most hotels in Ludlow appear overpriced.

Will not be back they really need to look at improvement everywhere .Didnt Help kitchen closed no notice outside didn’t tell us till drinks ordered.

This busy restaurant was our favourite for dinner. The staff were great and the food was the best that we had in Ludlow.

Overnight stay with dinner,bed and breakfast, was an offer so didn't really know what to expect for the price,but my oh my,what a fantastic surprise!! The evening meal was worthy of a Masterchef recommendation, well presented and served by the friendly and professional staff, extremely...

Friendly service at a restaurant that surprised us with the very high quality of cooking. Brilliant! Compliments to the Chef.

Very dirty rooms - complained so moved to bridal suite, which was just as dirty and all rooms need a deep clean. Great historical building but spoiled by lack of supervision of housekeeping staff. look on-line about the Legionnaires - it is completely true

This Tudor style town has this glorious Tudor style pub and it delivered great pub grub! All the UK favourites and of course, you can head here on the Sunday to have roast! YUM! Also a great place to meet as it is pretty centrally...

So, one lazy Sunday morning we had a lie in and went down for breakfast about 10.00. Snow had dusted the outside world with icing sugar but we had a delightful and hearty breakfast. The staff were really attentive, showing us to table and quickly...

My partner and I popped into the Feathers for a quick drink. The mulled wine was delicious, a very friendly, homely pub.

Had lunch here while visiting the area; the restaurant was very seasonably busy; we sat in bar where we always like to be; great food and wine; service at the bar was noticeably slow but we guess just due to Christmas trade.

We called in here for drinks and a snack. The fine exterior is much more impressive than the interior - though both share the same odd angles and the floorboards seem to have a mind of their own. We found service to be slow, beer...

Fourteen of us stayed at the feathers for two nights. The hotel was clean and well presented. The staff were helpful. And all ways had a smile. You had a very good choice for breakfasts. From fruit, cereal and a full English breakfast. If I...

Externally at least the Feather's Hotel may live up to its claims to be "The most handsome Inn in the World" but its sister Cafe Bar next door wasn't the restful, comfy retreat we were seeking after a busy morning walking around this beautiful town....

We had coffee here and a swift pint on a Wednesday afternoon in August and it was enjoyable. Wifi that works, no distracting music, pouring cream for Americano, so far so good, cappuccino not the best but acceptable. Fine choice of real ales here ,...

Staff advised times to avoid coach party eating - great! Ate in the Cafe Bar anyway. Good menu choice, food was served promptly, hot, and well-cooked. Good choice of local ales!!

You have to see this photogenic gem to believe it. The outside looks like it is out of a historical programme.

Excellent quality but a tad expensive and portions a tad on the small side. Friendly staff. Pleasantly surprised by the extra (ie not ordered/free) soup/bisque course.

We received a warm welcome from the barmaid and had a very good meal of fish and chips with excellent local beer.

Anyone who spends time in Ludlow really should eat at The Feathers at least once! Ludlow is of course the food capital of England - there's not a Mcdonalds within a 20 mile radius - and The Feathers is a contender as the Royal Palace...

Great food, in a pleasant setting in a historic town. Have been cominh here for decades and it never fails to impress.

Good food .efficient staff ,old world charm .excellent for looking round Ludlow castle etc within alkind distance

We had coffee in the 'Feathers Cafe' next to this beautiful Tudor hotel building and it was served promptly by the man behind the bar. We all agreed that it was one of the nicest tasting coffees we had in a while and accompanied with...

great food and reasonably priced.varied menu both starters and mains. very attentive staff and a lovely setting.

Called in for a drink or two as they allow dogs in the lounge area near Hotel reception, found this a little strange as it is close to the restaurant entrance and carpeted floor but the bar is tiled but no dogs in the bars,...

We had dinner in the restaurant to be honest only because all the top places were shut or full. Still should have been better. Amouse Bouche underseasoned and watery . Starters ok my monk fish was a bit dry my husbands terrine was fine. My...

Excellent food and helpful, pleasant staff. Local beers with discount for CAMBRA members. Interesting building too

Had a good weekend at the Feathers,great location in the centre of Ludlow with Car Parking. Our room a little small but bed good ,shower screen over the bath needed attention., leaked water onto the floor! The corridors and carpets are OK but are getting...

Visited here for a couple of drinks Friday evening. Pleasant with a good atmosphere, reasonably busy, and it was good to see a group from the local CAMRA using the bar. The service was excellent from David, who was most helpful and friendly. Nice to...

Lamb was very rubbery. Also extremely average food. Presentation 7/10. Chicken much better, but still very average. Food was slow. Very small portions and very expensive. £42 a head plus drinks.

Stayed at the hotel and had two course meal which was excellent . Starter and main with an option of pudding if required .

only popped in sunday evening for a quick drink. lacking atmosphere and beer nothing to brag about. sat in suede covered chairs that looked comfortable but lacked any padding in the cushion so were very uncomfortable.

Was a nice surprise to discover that this hotel was dog friendly. We sat in the bar area and could have ordered from the restaurant menu to eat in the bar but instead chose options from bar menu. We had the the fish and chips...

We arrived in Ludlow late afternoon, went for a wander about 7.30 for dinner. Went to Bistro 7 but was fully booked as was French Pantry. We walked back to the Feathers and could have had bar food but as it was my husbands birthday...

Ate in the restaurant while staying in the hotel. The food is very good and can be recommended and the attentive

I often have just soup at lunchtime with some bread. This broccoli and stilton soup was very thin and a small bowl.Tasted ok.Should have had a sandwich they were enormous.

My wife and I stayed at the Feathers for my 60th birthday and it was booked as a surprise for me,and what a surprise. The character of the building is so welcoming ,the staff were extremely helpful and courteous,nothing was too much trouble,and the room...

We've recently moved to Ludlow and pop into The Feathers quite frequently . Sometimes just for a coffee or more often lunch ! Never had a bad meal . Great value for money and big portions . I had fish of the day which was...

Called in for tea and biscuits. We found a comfortable table and chairs round the open fire - which unfortunately wasn't lit. The establishment has an enviable reputation, but tea and biscuits is rather a do it yourself exercise - having to order and collect...

Been here a couple of times, we have stayed here once, rooms are very nice, but downstairs is a little tired could do with a bit of TLC. But overall very nice.

Lovely restaurant,lovely staff ,amazing atmosphere very good quality food and drink. Very reasonable prices. You have a very good quantity of food ,food looked very appetising

Staff were very helpful but without a doubt the food excelled! a nice steady meal not rushed and not left waiting too long, my idea of heaven.

Excellent food and service. A really lovely place with a nice atmosphere. Gets busy so you may have to wait for a seat in the bar. No hardship then!

Nothing to complain about, the room was clean, a good size, lots of tea, coffee and biscuits everyday, 2 showers, 1 over the bath and a walk in shower which is much better for me. Lift. Staff really helpful, the bar food great, the restuarant...

We didn't eat at the Feathers, just a couple of drinks. First visit during the evening, the barman was friendly and chatty. Second visit during the afternoon, not as friendly, but hey-ho we enjoyed a sit in the sunshine while taking refreshments

Stayed here for one night on a Secret Escapes deal. Everything was just as good as our previous visit last year. Large room with lots of lovely extras.Food excellent - well presented and served by the most friendly of staff. One very small minus -...

We stopped in to sneak a peek and ended up staying for drinks and card games in the open air court yard. It was a tranquil and wonderful way to soak up the best of Ludlow!

Well established and well known We called in for an afternoon drink following a shopping trip. Friendly bar staff and a good choice of local ales so just the job really

Lovely food (both at breakfast and in the evening), and very pleasant and friendly staff. Quite expensive but no more so than you'd expect in a good hotel, and a cheaper menu was available in the bar. Very nicely-presented too.

As the Restaurant was fully booked, we dined in the bar area on a Saturday night. Service was very good, happy,friendly and efficient. The food (fish and chips and a sausage and onion gravy with chips instead of mash) were both flavoursome and the quantity...

We stayed here a couple 10 days ago and throughly enjoyed our stay. Our room was large and well appointed. The bathroom was massive with a lovely spa bath. The evening meal was excellent and the staff couldn't to enough to make our stay even...
