comments - Comfortable interior, friendly staff and
newspapers to read. Ticks all the boxes for me. The food menu looks
excellent too. Ludlow Gold very drinkable stuff with a nice hoppy flavour
9/10 - Mar 2009 Visited on a Tuesday afternoon. The refurbishment has certainly been extensive and is sympathetic to the location, which is superb. We spent our time on the upstairs balcony overlooking the Teme and the bridge, with the Clee Hills in the background. Four beers on all of which were local. (Hobsons, Wye Valley and Ludlow) My sample was excellent - a 4 star - Nov 2010 |
