Cromwells Bar and Restaurant Description

cromwells bar and brasserieIn the maze of Shrewsbury's medieval streets, amid Housman's steepled vision, Cromwells Hotel, Restaurant and Bar provides hospitality in large measures, with a lively bar, atmospheric oak-panelled restaurant, buzzing walled patio and quirky bedrooms, they have real variety under one roof.

The county town of Shropshire, Shrewsbury is an unspoilt, unrushed and tranquil place. It is packed with listed buildings situated on some very strange place names such as Dogpole and Mardol, Gullet Passage and Grope Lane, it only takes a little exploration on foot to reveal the delights of this medieval town.

Look out for guided walking and ghost tours through the shuts and passages, the unique maze of narrow alleys which criss-cross the town centre, and the many fine ecclesiastical buildings, castles and ruined abbeys as reminders of its medieval spiritual past.

Whilst Shrewsbury has not scaled the heights of Ludlow's Michelin-starred enclave, you can enjoy fine seasonal cuisine with dishes prepared from traditionally produced local ingredients at the height of their flavour, and its lively, atmospheric bar serves Shropshire real ales, Herefordshire cider and a selection of wines from around the world; the bar is much-favoured by locals and visitors alike.

The menu offers an interesting choice and changes frequently; one might consider the Winter salad of Queenie scallops and spicy Italian sausage or a generous bowl of Cornish mussels to start, both would be perfect.

Because I can never pass it by when it is offered, it would then have to be the roasted sea bass fillet with lobster shrimp velouté, parsley mash and crispy leeks, or maybe the delicious sounding thyme and rosemary roasted canon of lamb with a spiced cassoulet of winter vegetables and house made country breads.

However, leave room for their puddings as they are renowned, and who could possibly resist either blackberry, apple and almond crumble served with crème Anglaise and vanilla ice cream; sticky toffee pudding with pecan butterscotch sauce and vanilla ice cream or brioche bread and butter pudding with marmalade and brandy, deliciously light and served with clotted cream.

They also boast an excellent bar menu, so why not find out more about them, including details on their bedrooms, by visiting their Website?

Your Reviews of Cromwells Bar and Restaurant

Kylie (20 March 2008)

We received a friendly welcome and the place looked fantastic. The patio has lovely flowers on display. I will be going back again.

Chris (3 March 2006)

Quite petite. A nice menu and the food was quite good as well. The staff were very pleasant and earned their tip by keeping us smiling. I dare not speak too loudly, but the prices were pretty reasonable too, unless I got someone else’s bill?... Oh, I did!
