The Lakeside Restaurant looks onto the water. The Lander Bar looks onto the open fire. Both share a kitchen that buys from inside Shropshire wherever it can: Lyth Hill bread, Ludlow lamb, Wenlock cheese, fish from Shrewsbury Market on Mondays.
No tasting menu. No theatrical foam. Just dinner cooked properly in a building that has been feeding people for a hundred years.
Eighty covers facing the lake. Breakfast from seven, lunch from twelve, dinner from six. À la carte through the week, a long Sunday lunch on Sundays.
Most tables have a lake view. The window seats book up first, so call ahead.
Fifty covers, an open fire in winter, terrace doors open in summer. Light dishes, snacks, table d'hôte. Named after the family who lived in the building in the 1930s.
The afternoon tea here is the kind that takes three hours. Don't fight it.
Cooked breakfast, continental buffet, locally smoked bacon, free range eggs, the works.
Light dishes in the Lander Bar, full menu in the Lakeside Restaurant.
Finger sandwiches, scones with Shropshire clotted cream, pastries, leaf tea, optional fizz.
Three courses from the kitchen team, or à la carte from the full menu.
Two roasts on the carvery, two from the kitchen, the wine list relaxes for the afternoon.
On the terrace by the lake, when the weather allows. Bottomless pancakes, optional bloody marys.
Eight to twenty, set menu or bespoke, served in a private suite separate from the main rooms.
Lounge menu through the day, bar snacks through the evening, last orders at half eleven.
Tables can be booked direct by phone or email. Window seats and Sunday lunch fill first, so book ahead if either is the goal. Walk-ins welcome in the Lander Bar throughout the day.
