Shropshire Breweries
Brewing experienced something of a revival in popularity during the last five years as the number of craft or microbreweries grew substantially. In Shropshire we currently have seventeen breweries mixing grain, hops, yeast and water to produce award winning ales.

The Market Hall at Shrewsbury is a fantastic place to buy your fresh fruit, vegetables and meat from local producers. The market stall holders are a friendly and knowledgeable bunch and between them offer some of the best locally produced Shropshire food. Opens most days of the week.

Shropshire Food Festivals
Shropshire has a large rural economy so it stands to reason there will be plenty of interest in food festivals. We certainly have our fair share of great events. From the well established Ludlow food festival to the newstart Shrewsbury food festival, late summer equals fantastic local food.

eatshrewsbury.co.uk is a food map of Shrewsbury and surrounding area. We pride ourselves in our accuracy - other websites create maps using post code data to display the locations of businesses, often leading to their maps being completely inaccurate - where possible we plot the actual location. However, we cannot be held responsible for any inaccuracies due to business closure or relocation.
We reserve the right not to publish the locations of every food business in Shrewsbury and surrounding area, though we will make every effort to do so.
This is a food map of Shrewsbury. Therefore the highest concentration of businesses displayed is in the town centre. We are displaying some businesses such as farm shops, butchers and breweries which are further away from the town centre because we feel that people will be more inclined to travel further out to these places. We are not currently showing places such as take-aways and restaurants in nearby towns like Church Stretton or Wem or Much Wenlock.
The classification of businesses is subjective. Often the difference between a cafe and a restaurant, between a restaurant and a pub, between a bakery and a sandwich shop is blurred. We reserve the right to classify businesses as we see fit.
The logos used on the map to illustrate the different business types may not always be accurate. For example, we have used a pot of jam to symbolise "delis and specialist food shops". This logo is fairly accurate for Appleyards who do sell a variety of jams, though for Setonaikai it is less idea as they specialise in Asian food. Never the less, the logos have been chosen for convenience.
We also reserve the right to remove any businesses from the map at any time.
