Really enjoyed the two meals we had , quick service and polite and good portion sizes for price , although burger was 12 and it didnt come with chips so had to add them separately which is my only gripe

It has been a while since visiting Ludlow and have been recommended The Old Bakehouse. Great atmosphere, chilled and relaxing place. Staff are friendly, service was excellent and food was really good.

Lovely bar and cafe located in a small courtyard a short distance from the market square. The courtyard you have to pass through has the feel of going back in time, complete with a very old Morris Minor parked outside. The cafe is very well decorated, mixing modern and old and very clean. Staff were very friendly, and the service was excellent. Great coffee. Feels very comfortable, a place you want to visit to catch up with friends with a coffee in the day, or a few drinks and a meal in the evening.

Traveled for the day out. Absolutely gorgeous food. Reasonable price, free parking in a local car park! Staff working were extremely helpful as my sister is vegan, so had the vegan pizza.. super accommodating and handled everything well. Thank you so much. Highly recommend! Please visit

Popped in for breakfast whilst visiting the area from the south east. The bagels were amazingly fresh. All produce was delicious. You must try the local sausages! Staff were also really polite and lovely. Highly recommend.

I came here with friends and we all enjoyed our meals. We liked the location and the restaurant ambience, and the waitress was so charming and friendly. Sadly, we were only in Ludlow for the day, so we didn't have the opportunity to return, but we will next time.

We make regular visits to family living in Lovely Ludlow, and our favorite place to eat is the Old Bakehouse. Food is always great. Service is always excellent we love it there. Hoping to be back very soon. There's usually 4-6 adults and a baby and nothing is too much trouble.

We stopped in for lunch this week and were greeted by a lovely waitress who made us feel very welcome. The staff here were excellent - really friendly, kind and helpful. The food was so reasonably priced and was so yummy - we had the loaded pork fries and the Brie and bacon sandwich and both were large portions for lunchtime. Excellent quality, cheap price and will be back!
