    Mortimor's beautiful dining room is a great place to eat in a peaceful environment with lovely crockery and settings. Service is unobtrusive and prompt. We opted for the three course menu which gave sufficient choice. We enjoyed the meal which was made with care and attention but felt for the price it did not deliver enough on taste and flavour. The bread and butters we good and the clear highlight was the pre-desert tiramisu - would love more of the coffee jelly

    Faultless Mortimers Restaurant in Ludlow delivered an exquisite dining experience that exceeded all our expectations. The 6-course tasting menu was a symphony of culinary delights, expertly curated and flawlessly executed. Standouts included an enticing selection of snacks - the cheese tart was memorable, bursting with rich and creamy flavours. The scallop and apple dish was an ingenious marriage of textures and tastes, while the Trout paired with Baby Beets and Horseradish Crème Fraiche was fresh and wonderfully balanced. The Beef with Confit Onion Mash, Shallots, and Baby Leek was deeply satisfying, a testament to the chef's skill in layering and bringing out deep flavours. The meal was rounded off with two delectable puddings, each a perfect sweet note to end on. Complementing the phenomenal cuisine was the attentive, prompt service that was at once warm and professional. Coupled with the restaurant's relaxed ambiance, it made for an evening that was as enjoyable as it was delicious. Highly recommended for anyone seeking a top-tier dining experience in Ludlow.

    Great food. Not over fussy presentation just well laid out. Good delicious plates of food. If you are vegetarian you must pre-advise as no specific menu. Tasting menu seemed to be every diner's choice . Restaurant well patronised on a Wednesday evening. Service friendly and efficient

    Without doubt one of the nicest meals we’ve had. Every course was outstanding in taste, presentation & quality. It’s not cheap but for a treat or special occasion it was absolutely good value. The surroundings are quirky & very old fashioned with dark oak panelling & from outside you could easily walk past. The decor isn’t to my taste but it really doesn’t matter as the food does all the talking ! Would I go back ? 100% yes

    We were the only two in the restaurant so there was no ambiance at all. I would have preferred they would have cancelled my table The food was middle of the road. We had better food the following day at Csons down by the river for a fraction of the cost

    Warmly greeted upon arrival and shown to a seating area and presented with olives. Menu self explanatory but staff close by if assistance required. My wife and I chose different items and were most pleasantly surprised with a "pre starter" starter, my duck tourine cooked 3 different ways was excellent. For Mains another "pre mains starter" involving ham hock, crab, chicken all 3 beautifully cooked individually presented in a light crunchy pastry. My wife's cod and my beef were both cooked to perfection. For sweet a "pre starter" of tiramasu was delicious and we would probably have both settled for another pot as the sweet! However we both had the rhubarb and ice cream to round off a meal of exceptional quality. When next visiting Ludlow we shall definitely return to this restaurant!

    The food was of a very high standard and each course was brilliantly described in detail by the ladies looking after us. Nothing was to much trouble, even my error in not advising the restaurant until we had arrived of my wife’s dietary requirements. They overcome my error effortlessly and you would never have known. I would suggest, if having the taster menu you have the accompanying wines, they really do make a huge difference to the enjoyment of the food. I will visit again very soon, thank you for a wonderful evening.

    We had the tasting menu ( pescatarian) and wine pairing - it was a significant anniversary for us hence an excuse to celebrate in style ! The food was sublime - every course beautifully cooked and presented like a little work of art -hard to choose favourites but if I had to choose it’d be the cod and confit mash with shallots and leeks with a pleasantly sharp white languedoc and the rhubarb, vanilla cream and pistachio ice cream dessert matched with a mellow Hungarian white wine . The wine pairing was a treat and introduced us to some new ( to us ) wines which we’ll definitely try again . Service was ideal - extremely proficient but also relaxed and friendly. The venue was pleasant and welcoming-wood panelled rooms , soft lighting and quiet ambiance. We had a delightful evening , with superb food and wine and charming service and venue . We highly recommend .
