Featured Ludlow Restaurants
1. Mortimers
British, Modern restaurant in Ludlow
17 Corve St - SY8
“Thankfully serious cooking and professional service have returned to Ludlow” – and, aptly, to the “convivial” old locale of La Bécasse (RIP) and Hibiscus (pre-London move) – at this rising star from Wayne Smith, the bluff northern protégé of Hibiscus’s former boss Claude Bosi. All reports are strong, and the best say his cuisine here is “inspired and unique”.
2. The Clive Restaurant With Rooms
British, Modern restaurant in Ludlow
Bromfield - SY8
Enjoy relaxed dining with food made from Ludlow's local ingredients.
Our menu changes with the seasons so you can expect game and root vegetables in Winter and fresh salads in summer, with many of the fruits and vegetables coming from Lady Windsor's Walled Garden less t...
3. Old Downton Lodge
British, Modern restaurant in Ludlow
Downton on the Rock - SY8
“The big investment in all aspects of the operation backed up by a really friendly team is now paying off” at this attractive hotel (converted from ancient barns and a former cider mill) where the dining room feels positively baronial. As well as six-course and nine-course tasting menus, chef Karl Martin also provides a simpler ‘Market Menu’ option.
4. Golden Moments
Indian restaurant in Ludlow
50 Broad Street - SY8
“One of the best anywhere” – a polished and “constantly excellent” Indian, on the best-known street in a well-known foodie town; “you may have to wait as it’s all freshly cooked, but it’s worth the wait”.
5. Pizza Ten
Pizza restaurant in Ludlow
2b Quality Square - SY8
“Simple, fresh and so, so tasty pasta and pizza – perfect in all ways”, say fans of this independent pizzeria in foodie Ludlow, whose toppings show an unusual level of sophistication. “They just do everything right”.
6. CSONS at The Green Cafe
British, Modern restaurant in Ludlow
Dinham Millennium Green - SY8
What was formerly Clive Davis’ local staple (and FKA Green Café), is now “under new ownership (CSons – Shrewsbury)”, aka four brothers with deep roots in the Ludlow scene. Fans “didn’t think it could be any better, but it is”, with an “extended menu including breakfast” and, of late, Fri/Sat dinners. In particular “it’s a fabulous spot for al fresco breakfast or lunch overlooking the River Teme”.
7. The Charlton Arms
British, Modern restaurant in Ludlow
Ludford Bridge - SY8
Cedric Bosi’s attractive stone inn near the bridge has fine views of the River Teme from its dining room. “The cooking is of a high standard from a small but regularly changing menu” (and was blessed in October 2018 with a Bib Gourmand from the tyre men).
