The best restaurants in Market Drayton West Shropshire West Midlands

Gem of a place in Market Drayton. Traditional tea room in a historic tudor building. Family friendly and warm welcoming atmosphere. Food is home cooked with a wide choice. We always go for the fabulous Full English!

This was the first time we had visited The Merchant House and was very pleasantly surprised. From the moment we stepped through the door we were made to feel very welcome and comfortable. The owner/chef/bar tender created 2 delicious cocktails for us. We didn't have time to try one of the extremely tempting meals this time but have booked to come in again next weekend. Highly recommend trying - you will not be disappointed.

A Christmas Feast to Remember! Our Christmas party meal was nothing short of spectacular! From the moment we walked in, the festive atmosphere was warm and inviting, with twinkling lights and tasteful holiday decor setting the perfect tone for our celebration. The staff was exceptionally attentive and friendly, making us feel truly welcome throughout the evening. Every detail, from the table settings to the personalized service, reflected their commitment to excellence. And then came the food – a culinary masterpiece! The Christmas menu was thoughtfully curated, offering a delightful mix of traditional holiday favorites and innovative dishes. Each course was beautifully presented and bursting with flavor. The roast turkey was succulent, the sides were expertly seasoned, and the desserts – especially the decadent Christmas pudding – were a sweet finale that left everyone raving. Whether you're planning a festive gathering, a romantic dinner, or simply craving an exceptional dining experience . Bella Italia is the place to be. We left with full stomachs, happy hearts, and wonderful memories – already looking forward to next year’s celebration!

A huge thank you to Mo and the guys for a lovely Christmas Day 2024 meal. As always, my wife Sue and I were warmly welcomed and looked after from the moment we arrived. The Christmas atmosphere was brilliant, and most importantly, Oruna's food is consistently perfect. Looking forward to our next visit, and a very full belly 😀 Cheers, Matt & Sue Jewkes

So impressed with the food and service here. Everything was cooked perfectly, the staff were really welcoming and looked after a big group exceptionally well!

We have had lovely lunches here previously so went with high expectations. The ciabattas are delicious & come with some salad, coleslaw & crisps. Sadly the salad bowl, as a main option, was expensive for what it was & extremely disappointing. Lettuce (Iceberg & way too much), cucumber, red pepper (way too much), celery, tomato & onion. So boring & unimaginative & a very poor option for vegans & vegetarian. I ate my husband’s crisps which helped. I love salad and eat it every day for lunch, but this defeated me when it could have been livened up quite easily - even some coleslaw would have helped.

Excellent visit. Great welcome and brilliant staff vibe. Tidy interior and nice menu. We had nice coffee and two toasties that were amazing and presented like an art work. Tasty food. Shop items inside looked great. Definitely a further visit needed.

Popped in yesterday for tea and cake whilst on our travels, it was lovely. Although I'm originally from the area, I've lived away for many years, so I've lost track of what's available locally. This place is an absolute gem and will definitely be on my list of places to visit. Please update your social media pages though, we weren't sure if you were still open.

Came here for a meal with family for a birthday last night (25/10/24). The food was fantastic, full of flavour and fresh, but the service, lacks severely. It took nigh on 15 minutes to present us with the bill, to which we reviewed and found they had added £10+. We looked at the menu we were presented with when entering and found that they had increased each meal we had by £2. Yes, £2 isn't too much of an increase, but it is the principal of it. Without any prior notice, they had increased the prices without changing it on the menu we were handed. They also said the card machine was not working, even though we saw a customer (who happened to be my uncle) come in and pay on card (via contactless) as he had no cash. It's such a shame to be honest. The food itself as aforementioned is brilliant, but the service from the 'manager' is disappointing and very poor. He did not even apologise for trying to pull the wool over our eyes with the prices. Check your final bill when it comes to the table and make sure nothing has been added on.

1st time visiting tonight and we will definitely be back! Absolutely amazing food and service, high quality meat cooked to perfection! Lovely atmosphere and great with children which made it a lovely relaxing family evening!

Decided to have a chinese takeaway as we just moved to another property in Market Drayton and we knew that the Golden House was yards away which would be very convenient. We strolled to the takeaway and was greeted by lovely staff. We decided to try the Golden house special chow mein, the Singapore fried rice and a side dish of sweet and sour mixed balls. Food was freshly prepared in minutes and we took food back home. Food was hot and looked very presentable. My singapore was Fabulous, just the right heat with plenty of chopped meats and prawns. The girlfriend said her chow mein was lovely with plenty of meats and king prawns but she wasn't too keen on the chicken so I had that too. The mixed ball was lovely but the batter coating was a little thick and soft. We prefer the batter to be thinner and crispy. The sweet and sour sauce was lovely too. Overall the food is lovely and we would use it again but maybe try other dishes 😊

4 of us went for sunday lunch. Its very good value for money.

Always amazing food, lovely staff, will kindly adapt any order to suit the customers needs, they always give me free coke and prawn crackers and the bbq sauce is the best in town (I’ve tried them all and this is by far my favourite) - wouldn’t go anywhere else for takeaway Chinese. But would be good if they could take card payments. Not sure why previous reviews say they aren’t open regularly- they are just closed on Wednesday.

Most of the food was cold and the food that wasn't, tasted terrible. driver was rude aswell just awful chinese. Go to lucky star, much better!
