The Dragon restaurant was once the heart of a bustling coaching inn, with its many exposed timbers, ancient fireplace created from a bread oven and a pane of glass said to have been signed by the hangman at the last public hanging in the Market Square just in front of the hotel. They particularly pride themselves on the use of fresh local produce, with fruit and vegetables from Offa veg and their meat from the local award winning butcher Langfords. Dishes could run from a terrine of chicken livers and green peppercorns with red onion chutney and cherry tomato salad to begin with to mains of local beef fillet with Bearnaise sauce; Thai shrimp curry or wild mushroom and truffle pasta served with a bowl of mixed salad. This is accompanied by a wide ranging wine list, with sensible mark-ups.
