The Bell, Tong

Old Three Pigeons, Nesscliffe

Reviewer’s rating *** The defining moment came before we’d sat down to eat, writes Andy Richardson. A youngish waiter at the Old Three Pigeons at Nesscliffe strode purposefully to a table adjacent to the one at which we were sitting . . .

River House Kitchen, Bridgnorth

Reviewer’s rating **** New faces, new furniture, new experience. A compact riverside restaurant at Bridgnorth now cuts quite a dash, writes Rex M Key.

The Shakespeare Inn, Coalport

Rating: ***** James Shaw and his wife enjoy a great dining experience.

Star rating **** Catherine Roche thinks this is her favourite traditional rural pub.
