Shrewsbury is a must visit for these food spots

Shrewsbury in Shropshire might just be the most underrated food town in Britain. From open-fire cooking in the woods to rule-breaking pizza and award-winning burgers, this is UK dining at its most creative and authentic. 🔥🍕🍔

In this episode, I head to Shrewsbury to uncover its best hidden food spots and meet the people redefining what British food can be.

First up is Embers Café, a one-of-a-kind restaurant tucked away in the forest. They cook everything over fire using homemade charcoal, and I have what might be the best Sunday roast I’ve ever eaten. It’s raw, rustic, and completely unforgettable.

Next, I head into town to Dough & Oil, a rebellious pizza joint that’s tearing up the rulebook with mad flavour combos and innovative dough. Then it’s over to Bobby’s Tacos for proper Mexico City-inspired tacos, packed with flavour and soul.

Finally, I hit The Beefy Boys, home to award-winning burgers that’ve put Shrewsbury firmly on the UK food map. Along the way, I walk through the historic streets, chat with the owners, and get a true sense of what makes Shrewsbury’s food scene so special.

This is more than a food tour. It’s a celebration of British creativity, independent spirit, and culinary storytelling.
