Our restaurants in Shrewsbury

Dining at the Prince Rupert Hotel is always an experience. We're proud to host several of the finest restaurants in Shrewsbury – each a gem, hidden in plain sight among the cobbled streets of the town centre. Beloved to those in the know. Always open to all.

And now, with head chef Gareth Howarth at the helm, our culinary reputation shines more brightly than ever. Same impeccable service. Same historical atmosphere. But with new menus, new flavours and new reasons to keep coming back.

The Royalist Restaurant

At our fine dining restaurant, the feast begins as soon as you walk in. First, you notice the elegant oak panels. Then the unique antiques.

Then the menu, flush with inventive dishes and locally sourced ingredients. Already regarded as one of the best restaurants in Shrewsbury, The Royalist has reached new heights under the careful stewardship of head chef Gareth Howarth.
