🍽️ SUNDAY ROAST WORTH MAKING PLANS FOR

If you're serious about your Sunday roasts, Montgomery's Bar & Restaurant at The Astbury Golf & Lodge Resort deserves a spot on your list.

We started with two beautifully presented starters. The warm duck salad combined rich flavours with plenty of texture thanks to turmeric seeds and shredded Chinese leaf. The salmon roulade was packed with detail, served with caper and tomato salsa, fresh herbs, herb oil and pickled vegetables that added freshness and balance.

The attention to detail carried through to the main event. The Sunday roast was one of the most generous we've come across, with every component given real care and consideration. Herby roast potatoes, honey glazed parsnips, butternut squash purée, green beans and sugar snap peas all cooked perfectly. The gravy had fantastic depth of flavour and tied everything together brilliantly.

Desserts change weekly, always a good sign of a kitchen that likes to keep things fresh. The Tiramisu Torte is a regular favourite and we can see why. The Mango Parfait with meringue was light, refreshing and a great option for anyone who prefers something fruity.

Service was friendly, relaxed and attentive throughout, led by Jonathan and his team. Nothing felt rushed and we were made to feel genuinely welcome from the moment we arrived. (Invite)

Casa Mia Broseley 🍕
If you’re a pizza lover and haven’t tried Casa Mia yet, put it on your list.

⭐️5/5
Recommended👍
Price 💸💸

We went all in on the pizzas and every one of them delivered. The Mortazza was packed with flavour, topped with fior di latte mozzarella, mortadella, crushed pistachios, fresh pesto and a whole burrata that took it to another level.

Margherita proved why classics never go out of style. Simple, fresh and made with quality ingredients that speak for themselves.
Capricciosa was packed with flavour too, with a great balance of toppings and a perfectly cooked base.

What stood out most was the quality across the board, Proper authentic pizza, great ingredients and the kind of place where you immediately start thinking about what you’ll order next time.

A real gem in Broseley and one we’ll definitely be returning to. 🍕🙌🏻

Fishmore Hall

We were invited by the new chef Dan, who’s clearly putting real effort into refreshing the menu. The room was quieter than expected for a Saturday night, but there’s definitely potential here.

Olives were a nice start and the heritage tomatoes were the standout of the evening, both in the burrata starter and again alongside the steak. The burrata salad was the surprise highlight. The smoked salmon was pleasant, though a touch of dill or capers would have lifted it. The ham hock terrine felt a little flat and could have used something punchy alongside it.

For mains we had the Shropshire beef sirloin steak and the pan‑roasted Cornish hake with crushed new potatoes, samphire and beurre blanc. The samphire was overcooked and the fish didn’t carry much flavour, which left the dish feeling muted. The steak had great support from the heritage tomatoes, Stilton sauce and skin‑on fries, though the meat itself didn’t quite deliver the depth you’d expect.

With Ludlow’s food scene thriving, we think there’s real potential for the dining side to become more of a destination in its own right, with a little more confidence and character. (Invite)

⭐️ O.P at the shed Cowshed Wellington Market, Shropshire

We popped into O.P at The Cowshed in the newly renovated Wellington Market and everything was spot on.

We had the steak with chimichurri, rosemary fries, whipped feta salad and flatbread, and the gochujang marinated chicken with toasted sesame fries, Asian slaw, flatbread and lime and yuzu crema.

The skewers were served on really tasty flatbread and the portion sizes were just right. Everything was full of flavour and really well balanced.

A special mention for the homemade chips too. You don’t see them often these days and they were really good.

Definitely worth getting down there and giving them a try. Great food, good portions and another local business worth supporting. 🍴🙌🏻

We’ve been to The Bear Inn, Hodnet several times now, and as ever the food continues to be outstanding every time!

On this visit, we had the cured mackerel with fennel escabeche and crème fraîche, which was beautifully balanced and packed with flavour.

The duck breast, served perfectly pink, with beetroot, cherry, cauliflower and jus was exceptional. A fantastic combination of flavours and textures, and every element worked so well together.

Dessert was pineapple, coconut, Malibu and lime, fresh, tropical and a lovely way to finish the meal.

It’s always a pleasure coming back to The Bear. Consistently excellent food, beautifully presented and clearly made with real care. Another fantastic meal, and we’ll definitely be back again. 5⭐️
