There are three parts to it, the central pub, a small cafe as you enter and the restaurant in the rear. None of it is large, and all quite cozy. Since the restaurant seemed fairly full of patrons were opted for seats in the pub area. It was fun to watch all the locals enjoying a beer and having some fun. An occasional dog added some energy and involvement too. I ordered a burger and oh my goodness, as is usual in England the beef was incredibly fresh and tasty, and the entirety delicious. They heap cheese and lettuce, tomato, onion and with a double patty it is burger heaven! Of course it comes with fries. Having a local beer was great and the service was friendly and top notch. We absolutely enjoyed the meal. The only downside was the level of noise, but hey it's a pub.

We have ham, pulled pork, a bacon and Brie sandwich and a burger - everyone cleaned their plate. I would definitely recommend it.

I opted for deep fried Brie, which was excellent, two generous portions, both well cooked with a tasty salad and cranberry sauce.My partner had the Lasagne, again, delicious, good portion, piping hot served with salad and garlic bread. The night we were there (a Thursday) it was bustiling with activity, as it was dominoes night!

The service was outstanding. We were shown to our table on arrival and asked for our drinks order a few minutes later. Bearing in mind that this is only a pub restaurant, we did not have to leave the table all night. The drinks arrived promptly and a short time later we were asked for our order. Our order included a Reggae Reggae Rotisserie Chicken served in a delicious BBQ sauce. The chicken was so juicy and succulant and full of meat. This place obviously sources its food properly and does't rely on a cheap anaemic, anorexic chicken to serve to its customers. A medium steak that, unlike many places you go to, was cooked to perfection and a childs portion rotisserie chicken, also succulant and meaty. The main course was absolutely delicious and devoured by all present. The desserts included a hearty apple and blackberry crumble, which was to die for, a large helping of ice cream (3 types) and a childs helping of Toffee Crisp ice cream. My only complaint was that one of my boules of ice cream (the banana) was a little chrytsally (is that a word), meaning at some point it must have defrosted and been frozen again, but that was a small complaint for an otherwise excellent meal. The service was outstanding throughout, the staff were very pleasant and helpfull and 3 mains, 3 sweets and 4 drinks for £42, makes for an excellent evenings eating!!

It is in a courtyard setting which used to be a pub. There is an alley with the bar one side and the main restaurant on the other side. Couldn't get into main restaurant as it was fully booked. So was offered a table in the adjacent Globe Bar which serves Thai Tapas and acts as a stand alone bar. As we are both disabled the waiting on staff offered us a ramp up into the bar. We ordered our meal at the bar and was offered Thai Prawn crackers with a chilli dip for £2. Shortly after arriving and tucking into the Crackers our meals arrived. These were very well presented on square plates. My wife ordered a Thai Green curry which she found to be a bit too hot to her liking, I ordered a mild stir fry with chicken and cashew nut so we swapped. My curry was indeed even too hot to my taste but netherless it was very tasty and chicken was very tender and not dry. My wife's carer ordered a similar dish to myself with prawns and muscles. All the meals came with ample helpings of rice which was included in price of meal which is very good as it is usually charged for seperately. It was all very nice. We have been to upmarket restaurants in central Birmingham and this is 10 times better. Would definitely go there again as the food was very good and would recommend it to any of our friends. One downside is their access, as they do not have a wheelchair accessible toilet, although the staff are friendly and helpful. And as the food was so nice it didn't really bother us. We visited there in the evening, but would go for lunch there next time. For 2 courses for £10 you can't really complain. If you have not been before Ludlow is a beautiful town and well worth the long trip even just for the scenery. Clee hill gives you very good views.

When ordering the staff were very friendly & helpful, they were also wonderful with my daughter who had some four-year old questions about some of the meals & offered to make adjustments to the dishes if required. The food was delicious, we were visiting mid-week & chose a selection of the sandwiches which were all generously sized (despite being from the 'light' menu) & very fresh. We were sat on the second floor & so had an enjoyable view over the rest of the square, the entire bar was well laid & tastefully decorated, with a relaxed atmosphere - certainly somewhere we'd eat again on a return visit to Ludlow.

Downstairs has a bar area, plus tables and chairs, while upstairs has a smaller number of tables, two of which have great views over the square into the town centre. This is the place to come for an industrial sized vat of cappuccino and a sticky bun (the ginger cake is just fabulous) to warm up before you finish your shopping. Equally, there are some fine lunches to be had here. We've been coming here for about 5 years now, and I've docked a star because the lunches seem to be getting disproportionately more expensive over time. Food is of the rib-sticking variety (such as savoury pancakes, stuffed with roasted vegetables and topped with cheese sauce, sausage and mash, lamb cutlets etc). Finally a few words: prune and bitter chocolate tart. Just do it.
