The best restaurants in Ludlow North Shropshire West Midlands

Another wonderful meal at Bistro 7 and so sad it was on the closing night. We've enjoyed so many fantastic meals here over the years. Ludlow has lost one of its best restaurants.

A full English breakfast was what was called for on one of the worst days and that is what we ordered. It was delicious, filling tasty and one of the best breakfasts I have had away from home. The service was excellent . We had been recommended this place for quality and for value and it lived up to expectations

We really enjoyed our tapas meal. There was plenty of choice and the food was delicious. Lovely, friendly staff. We went again the following evening and had paella.

Well what can you say about this Indian restaurant, totally superb! We have eaten in my Indian restaurants, but this one is on another level, food was out of this world, staff were super friendly from the moment we went in to the time we came out. Thank you so much shapla we had the best time ever, for sure we will be coming back. Mr and Mrs salter.

I arranged a meal for a party of 16. Camilla was very helpful in setting this up. The evening went very well. The room was lovely. The food and wine were great and service efficient and friendly. This was our second time here and I’m sure we’ll be back a third time in due course.

We called in whilst visiting Ludlow to do a bit of shopping. We had a look around and had two takeaway coffees. We were so impressed that we went back for lunch. We ate a pepperoni pizza outside which was absolutely delicious. Pizza was on a sourdough base and was to die for. My wife and I both agreed it was the best pizza we had ever eaten (we’ve had a lot) The lady owner was lovely, and a really good host. We bought a few provisions from the well stocked shop as well. Highly recommend

My husband and I booked this restaurant as it was one of the few restaurants with availability as it was valentine’s night. The reviews on TripAdvisor seemed positive enough but I was very very disappointed when presented with a steak that was not properly cooked - it was actually raw in the middle . I know I had asked for medium rare but there is a difference between medium rare and actually raw. It was tough and chewy and u asked for it to be redone. The steak was still tough and I struggled to not only cut it but also chewing it. The staff eventually offered me a steak knife , which should have been served with my steak to begin with, but I still struggled to cut through the meat as it was tough as boots. I think the steak was recooked in a microwave which toughened it or perhaps it was just poor quality steak . I gave up eating it and left most of it. The staff not only seemed unapologetic but refused to accept that it was tough and would not take it off the bill but after some argument took off the supplementary charge . It will be the last time we visit this eatery again for sure.

I have dined at Forelles many times before, always had excellent service, outstanding food and a wonderful experience. Had lunch today as part of a “dip and dine” spa package, which included 2 courses off the menu. We were seated in the conservatory which was beautifully decorated and tables nicely laid. The waiting staff, whilst friendly, clearly lacked experience. We ordered a sharing platter as a starter, this was nice, but lacked the refinement I had come to expect. Our mains were ok, I had the fish of the day which was monkfish served with quinoa and confit tomato’s and a couple of buttered new potatoes. Priced at £24 I was underwhelmed. My friend had the chicken burger, again that was nothing special, a bit of fried chicken in between two slices of gluten free bread, with Asian slaw, a slice of tomato and lettuce leaf. The accompanying chips were crispy but needed sauce or mayonnaise. The waiters didn’t follow up to ask if we wanted more drinks or desserts, I went to find them to order a pot of tea! Eating at Forelles in the past was an experience that exceeded expectations, unfortunately the same cannot be said for it now. Sadly I think this will be my last visit here, I will have to find an alternative for fine dining in the Ludlow area. We were so underwhelmed we didn’t even take any photos.

Popped in and was very pleased. Great service, cake and coffee!! Throughly lovely people and a pleasant atmosphere. Would visit again.

An unexpected gem. The lunch menu was interesting and varied. We ordered the Confit Duck, which was the day's special. It was beautifully cooked and presented, as good as any we have had in France! We also shared the Gyoza starter and Apple and Plum crumble all done to the same high standard and clearly homemade. The staff were friendly and attentive. We have eaten at several other venues in Ludlow which seem to be more highly rated by TA but this will be our first choice from now on.

Delicious place to stop for a croissant and a coffee/tea. The place gets very busy, so be prepared to wait or come back a bit later.

Delicious fresh cooked food with generous portions in a historical setting ( the old school). Very friendly service and as we were the last ones to leave we had the privilege of talking to the owners all about Greece. It was a really enjoyable evening and good value too! Would highly recommend.

Cannot quite understand some previous reviews as they do not align with our experience. On both our visits the cakes and snacks were excellent, well accomplished cooking and tea and coffee were good. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Furniture is simple but is not poor condition and is sufficient for this establishment. Excellent little cafe with superb patisserie.

I came in here with my family and i absolutely loved it! The staff were very friendly and kind. The food was amazing and presentation couldnt be better! without a doubt coming back soon!

My mom knows I wanted to eat here for a while now and she was away so she got someone she knows to get some for me without my knowledge it was a tastiest surprise 😋 it tasted amazing
