The Walrus

Modern British

£££

Young chef-owners Ben and Carla run this two-floored restaurant in Ben’s hometown; start with a drink in the upstairs bar, then watch them both in action in the open kitchen. Ambitious modern cooking delivers an intriguing blend of pronounced flavours and contrasting textures, and makes great use of Shropshire’s larder.
