Had a gorgeous Sunday lunch at the Lion + Pheasant recently with a friend.
We wanted to eat around 5pm, but the kitchen closes between 4pm-6pm, so we popped somewhere else for a drink and headed back at 6pm. We assumed this would mean the Sunday lunch would be over…but we were happily wrong!!
Food was so good, service was excellent and the atmosphere was relaxed and cosy.
We opted for a starter and main course, everything was priced individually and a bottle of red wine to share.
For starter we both had pork belly @ £9 - sorry, no photo as I forgot.
I had beef, I was asked if I wanted it rare or well done, which was £22 and my friend had the Lamb, £23. We added an extra side of cauliflower cheese, £3.50. Everything else you can see came with the main courses which included some kind of delicious horseradish mash - yum.
A bottle of Rioja, £36.
Total + added 10% service charge = £112.75.
We shall definitely be back! Thanks for a wonderful evening.
The room was extremely hot due to the single glazing, in fact it was airless. The fan was very noisy to leave on & the shutters had to be used at night due to a flickering street lamp.
Tastefully decorated & lovely bathroom with shower. It was a very compact room & I feel there were far too many mirrors in the bathroom & room. More shelves in the bathroom maybe. And a bigger TV. All in all a bit overpriced for what you get.
Went here for a fabulous family meal recently. Complex dietary requirements perfectly catered to, the staff were friendly helpful and the food was delicious. It was a special occasion to honour some dearly missed family members who had celebrated significant birthdays etc here and it really was the perfect evening. Thanks to all the team at the L&P!
Judged the restaurant as I didn't stay there.
Sunday lunch magnificent, the best food in Shrewsbury. Service was outstanding and price extremely reasonable for the quality of food.
I stayed at the hotel for 2 nights and it’s really cute. The staff were also nice. We had a room on the high street and I was still able to sleep which was great.
The breakfast was also spectacular!
The 4 star are because of the room being quite basic - mirror and plug (for hair styling) was in a awkward corner. The cleaning service was also poor - not more than 5 minutes went into making our room (just made the bed and cleaned the shower). Floors were left dirty.
Overall I would recommend it but make sure you don’t get a room on the ground floor near the parking (my friend got one and she wasn’t impressed)
Great vibe in the wine bar. Fabulous service and good selection. Garden is lovely
The accommodation was pleasant, the staff were friendly and allowed us to park in a reserved space. Our room was clean and nicely presented but was near the restaurant so there was little noise late at night when we returned. Breakfast was included in the room rate, and was fairly nice.
Ask for a room in the back, if you are in the front the road/cars noise is on all the time and will disturb your sleep (the ear plugs help, but your ears will hurt in the morning). If no rooms in the back, choose a different hotel as a lack of sleep is not fun. The hotel itself is lovely. Charmingly old school. The rooms are good size, the beds are firm and comfortable. The shower water flow is only ok. There are complimentary biscuits in the room (yum!). The breakfast is excellent, eggs in every shape and flavor, in addition to continental choices. There is a bar and nice restaurant at the hotel as well.
Lovely place . will stay again. Had a full English breakfast but a frozen hash brown. Not so good.
Work's Christmas meal, a super venue, a big space ,classy decor, beautifully decorated for the festive season.
Cannot fault the food , really really lovely, well presented, generous mains and starters and desserts equally as inviting.
Whilst I appreciate we were a large party and obviously there were lots of other diners, the service was a little slow, particularly between courses.
Overall though , it was a great evening , I would certainly recommend the venue and the food most highly.
Will certainly return.
