Clive Restaurant, The

Among the extraordinary crop of really good restaurants which has been sown in that wonderful piece of old England called Ludlow, The Clive Restaurant is a relatively late entry, however, it has become renowned for its modern British cuisine and, as a result, it has been awarded two AA Rosettes as well as entries in the Good Food Guide and the Michelin Guide. There is an emphasis on the use of fresh produce ranging from local meats and vegetables.

It is situated just 2 miles north of Ludlow, on the A49 at Bromfield. They cater for most tastes, with the restaurant offering very good food at affordable prices, whilst alternatively the Clive Arms bar offers a range of light snacks.

Some eight or so main courses offer good variety along with a decent range of starters and desserts. A sensible wine list of some 70 bins supports the culinary delights, of which four reds and four whites are classified as house wines and presented in large or standard glasses at competitive prices.

The Clive represents a refreshing approach to the provision of good, wholesome food in an unfussy and practical manner.
