The Castle Lodge Restaurant
There's no shortage of exceptional restaurants in Ludlow – the Shropshire culinary capital. But even among this illustrious company, the Castle Lodge Restaurant brings something truly unique to the table. Here, in this Grade II* Tudor mansion, every light lunch or special meal feels like an occasion worth remembering.
You'll see the difference straight away – in those intricate wood-panelled walls and the magnificent plasterwork ceiling. You'll sense it in the friendly welcome and the impeccably unobtrusive service. And, of course, you'll taste it in every bite. This is local flavour at its finest – unpretentious, unwaveringly delicious and expertly prepared under the tutelage of the head chef.
If it's not local, it's not Ludlow…
We mean it. You'll struggle to find a town as passionate about locally sourced produce as Ludlow. There's a reason it's been called 'the gastronomic capital of the countryside'.
It's a passion we share. Like most restaurants in Ludlow, Shropshire produce features heavily on our menus. And our head chef, made his name cooking inventive dishes that put high-quality, locally sourced ingredients front and centre.
Now, he has Shropshire's abundant rivers and farmland at [his/her] disposal – and the results burst through in every bite. These are the fruits of Shropshire at their very best.
