The best restaurants in Prees Shropshire West Midlands

Stopped off at the Midway Truck Stop enroute to Devon for an All Day Breakfast, of which fully met our expectations, having stop here before a number of years ago.

Dropped in for a spot of lunch as we were passing through. Friendly staff. Decent menu at reasonable prices. Freshly produced food with decent portions. No WiFi.

I visited The Combermere with a friend on Monday 14th for a light lunch and was delighted with the food, the service and the overall ambience of the pub. It was so good, I took my son there for Easter Sunday lunch today - it was excellent. As a family, we'll be making it a venue for family occasions. Thanks to both the serving staff and everyone in the kitchen for an excellent occasion.

Absolutely wonderful country pub. The Sunday lunch was amazing. The staff go out of their way to make your dining experience the best it can be. A proper old fashioned pub with a friendly atmosphere. Good outside space and plenty of parking.

The Castle Inn has been refurbished to a high standard. The evening menu was limited and dishes that were on the menu were not very exciting and quite pricey. The food was served on hot plates and was well presented. We all had different meals but none of them could be classed as outstanding. The service was poor. The restaurant was very noisy and dark. Unfortunately we won’t be returning.

Plenty of parking, never seems particularly busy, but good service and tasty food with big portions.

Absolutely delicious home made food. We met friends for a walk around the beautiful farm and fields before a light lunch in the cafe. The Welsh rarebit was the best we’ve ever had (and we’ve had a lot!) and the reason for writing this review - everyone should try it! Sausage rolls were fantastic too. Really lovely cafe and great farm shop too!

Visited Prees fish & chip restaurant on a busy Friday evening in early August. The restaurant does eat in & takeaway. The place was busy. Good selection of food available. Nice open space with wooden table & chairs, clean and tidy. Tables also available outside. Drinks available at the bar where you order. A short wait and food was delivered to the table. We both had fish, chips & mushy peas. Food was fresh, hot and good quality. I know there has been historically some poor reviews, be have to say based on this visit, we had no complaints, and would definitely visit again.

First time visit to the Gingerbread Man. Nice looking venue with plenty of parking. Lovely friendly staff. Not a lot of customers or staff. Ordered two lattes, one served in a chipped mug, changed without any problem. Ordered fish and chips. Chips ok, fish on the small side and dry. Ordered vegan burger with chips. Chips ok, burger rock hard. Complained, meal was changed without any problem. The kitchen manager described the burger as being like an ice hockey puck. We were offered complimentary dessert as compensation. Staff very apologetic. Very disappointed with the meal, will not eat here again. Can understand why there were very few customers.

Excellent clean old style pub top class pool and 3 snooker tables, friendly and good prices cheers Rob

I called into this establishment three years ago with my elderly father whilst on-route to Ludlow. I had often passed this Cafe and that day I decided to try the food. In retrospect, wished that I hadn't stopped. And judging from the current reviews from others, I can clearly see that nothing has improved. There wasn't anyone in when I entered and the lady behind the counter (presumably the owner) wasn't of the welcoming ilk. Her 'froideur' didn't run well with the cafe and she made us feel downright unwelcome. Her whole 'being' seemed to generate an awkward atmosphere that made you feel more like a minor inconvenience than a customer. That aside, I stayed and ordered. Our order was taken by a man who I assumed was the husband. He was more personable and approachable and we ordered a breakfast. I made the profound 'faux-pas' by asking for scrambled eggs which earned me the almost shocked response of 'I'm sorry, but Debs doesn't do that'. (Cue the distinctly awkward moment that makes you feel that you're in a bad Terry and June BBC comedy sketch from the 1980s.) The whole dining experience there was a farce. The meal wasn't the best nor was it enjoyable in such drab and unwelcoming surroundings. The greatest comedy value for me were the signs dotted about saying, 'Ask Debs' if you require anything. Oh, the sheer irony of it! Ask a woman who doesn't want to make even a modicum of conversation with you. My only conclusion to this absolute travesty that attempts to pass for a 'cafe' is simply to avoid it. When on the A49, please divert your eyes away from 'Debs Cafe' and drive on. I'm sure that other establishments will give you a far better welcome than this miserable place.
