The best restaurants in Church Stretton and Craven Arms Shropshire West Midlands

Only one word: perfect place!!!

This is a lovely traditional tea room. An old merchant's house repuposed for today. Very traditional food and lovely baked goods. We chose soup (Leek and potato; Marrow and Butterbean) and a hot cheese scone with Shropshire butter. Delightful home-made fare.

Completed online booking form to book a table for a birthday meal to never receive any confirmation. Attempted to phone… phone number not in use. Used the online WhatsApp system… my message was read and never replied to!!! Awful customer service and have booked elsewhere instead.

This placeis so brilliant. Best breakfast in Church Stretton in my opinion!! The veggie breakfast was top rate. Will be my come to place in future when walking here.

Great food and service' although we didn't eat in the atmosphere was good

Came here on recommendation of local campsite owners for Sunday lunch after a circular walk along the ridge, and did not disappoint. We both had the slow roast lamb which was beautiful. Loads of veg, although green beans weren’t fresh but we forgave them as the gravy was to die for! And I’m a gravy connoisseur 👌 Really generous portion sizes, including the amount meat. Friendly staff, well kept beer, smart interior and really reasonably priced! Thank you team Swan Inn 👏👏

The food was excellent and the restaurant was nice and warm when we walked in, it was quite a cool evening so this was appreciated. Thoroughly enjoy our evening and would highly recommend.

Used to be excellent Gone downhill since brewery took it over and George left. A shadow of its former self.

They had a problem with lighting, the owner was very apologetic so we decided to eat there anyway. Good Thai food served hot and fresh.

Popped in on a Saturday afternoon on way to Ludlow. Great atmosphere. Busy. Good beer. Very welcoming.

Friendly 7 pleasant young lady behind till. Had takeaway pizzas, seafood and vegetarian both were heaped with cheese and toppings, served piping hot in takeaway boxes Very impressed

First visit here. Decided on the carvery. Beef was tough, vegetables were luke warm, the sauce in the cauliflower broccoli cheese was watery as was the leek dish, and plates were cold! Pastry on apple pie was very undercooked. Ambience in room was not good, so all in all not a good experience. Staff were friendly. Will not return.

Five of us booked for a late breakfast. Suffice to say it won’t be the last time. It was really excellent! Efficient, friendly and good humoured service. Absolutely delicious food. Honestly one of the tastiest breakfasts (full English) that I’ve ever had. All 5 of us agreed that we’ll be back as soon as we can be.

Fish and chips as they should be- freshly cooked. Quick service. Hassle free. Price good as well. Clean shop which I liked. parked right outside.

I booked this for my 50th birthday - firstly because I used to play golf at Church Stretton and so have many fond memories of being there as a kid, and secondly because we'd been there for a tapas evening previously and the food was fantastic. Everything that Rita made for the grazing table/buffet was amazing (especially the home-made scotch eggs). It also looked amazing and the birthday cake was delicious. Ben and his team gave great friendly service from behind the bar and ensured that all of our guests had a great time. There was a large screen TV, so we also managed to have the Word Cup rugby on. Nothing was too much trouble. We hired a local singer, who they managed to make room for in addition to the 75+ guests. Highly recommended as a venue. It was so much cozier/nicer than a village hall, and it was great to have the whole place to ourselves which you don't get at a pub/restaurant. This was in winter and so it was dark outside, but in summer it has lovely views over the town
