Reviews in Shropshire

We held a hen meal here and the food was great the service was amazing. Staff checked in on drinks regularly overall everyone was very happy with the food and service provided at the malthouse.

Fabulous evening with charming service and great food (and espresso martinis)

We had a lovely steak at the Malthouse, service was fab, friendly, and not in your face, we had an enjoyable evening, thanks guys

Excellent meal as always, would highly recommend.

Amazing Food, waited nearly an hour but restaurant was very busy so it’s understandable. Service was great and staff were very friendly. Definitely recommend. Wife commented on the fish, she said it was the best fish she’d ever had. Not too badly priced either.

Ordered 2 meals, one meal was fine but the 2nd meal was accompanied with cold vegetables which we sent back. After the first meal was consumed, the 2nd meal complete with hot vegetables arrived, so both ate alone. You would have thought that as the place was virtually empty they could at least provide 2 hot meals. Given 10% discount on the price of the cold meal only. Very disappointing, what a shame as it has been a while since we visited and expected it to be nice.

New-years eve , food as always "excellent " Only down side booked table over phone to request specific area to sit , booked but when double checked 3 weeks later no booking found , new booking via on line with same request this time confirmed by text . Made a visit two days before booking whilst have food and drink ,booking was confirmed yet again ,day of booking totally different table right at the back of the restaurant, no attempt was made by manager even thro what I booked was confirmed via text and in person Spoilt part of the evening .

We booked a table at the Malthouse for New Years Eve. It was busy and all the staff were excellent and well organised. The service was also very good and we were happy to tip the waiting staff. We had the Fillet Steak Beef Wellington main course which at £25 was good value. The refurbed dining room standard is great as is the wonderful location by the Severn. I also found the quality of beer excellent. A perfect combination for our new year celebrations. Well done everyone that worked on New Years Eve. You worked hard during unsocial hours whilst all us others were out having a good time. Thank you.

Lovely country pub, but a bit chilly told central heating wasn’t working but radiator was on in the gents toilet so nice and warm in there, but not in the restaurant. We ordered a Sunday roast which was served within good time and glad to say we were not disappointed very nice, followed by delicious dessert even though the custard was a bit luke warm would of preferred it be hotter but not a deal breaker and will definitely be returning.

Great experience

Wanted a margarita but didn't have the constituents to make one, not a great start. Replacement cocktails were far too sweet to the point of being undrinkable. Had beef, chicken and pork . Chicken was bland and under seasoned. Two out of three I guess is acceptable.

First time visit to the restaurant. All 4 dishes were amazing especially the sea bass. Lovely waitress too. We will definitely be back.

4 adults and 2 children dined at the Swan on Boxing Day, 3 of the 4 adults had Fillet steak and all were cooked to perfection, nice thick cut of meat, taste was excellent,I have to admit very very surprised, and will be back and certainly recommend.

Had our firm's practice Xmas dinner here; food was great and the service excellent. Thank you. A minor niggle was that the coffee machine had been turned off, so no post-dinner hot drinks for some of my staff. Instant coffee would have been acceptable perhaps? Would recommend for everything else, especially the Butcombe Bitter!

We are regular diners at The Bull and the majority of the time we have no grumbles, however Christmas Day 2023 was a very underwhelming experience!!!

We ate out this year for Christmas, it was lovely to not have the hassle of cooking. All the staff were excellent whilst we were there and the food was very nice indeed.

Welcomed by bar staff and shown to a table. Nice choice on lunch and main menus, both of which offering great value. Food was fresh, hot, tasty and decent portions. Decor and atmosphere could benefit from a little attention, but overall very satisfied with the experience.

Visited a few times. Service was very disappointing. We sat for over 20 minutes once seated to order drinks (there was only 2 other tables in our area so wasn't busy). Order the Christmas fayre menu and usually get crackers and festive looking table and didn't this year..
