Housmans Restaurant Bar

We ate here last night and the food was really good it’s a shame that the restaurant was so quiet but I’m guessing that people read old reviews and pay attention to them ! Give this place a chance people the food is much better than in the other restaurants in this little town

Completed online booking form to book a table for a birthday meal to never receive any confirmation. Attempted to phone… phone number not in use. Used the online WhatsApp system… my message was read and never replied to!!! Awful customer service and have booked elsewhere instead.

On a rainy Monday evening in Church Stretton, there wasn't much activity in town. That's why we ended up choosing Housmans for dinner. We were pleasantly surprised by our experience. The food was freshly prepared, nicely presented, and delicious. The wine selection was also great. The prices were reasonable and the service was attentive but not rushed. Overall, it was a very enjoyable dining experience. Ver carta

Had table for four booked ....arrived on time to a closed door! Honestly we have been here often with previous owners and it was excellent every visit, with a special European grazing menu. I suspect most of the reviews posted were of the service provided by the ex owners. No excuses tendered, no messages received for reasons why doors were closed. Not the way to run a successful restaurant. If you book be very wary! This is not a fake review.

Thank goodness the other eateries weren't open on Sunday evening. We noticed the doorr to Housemans open and, yes, they were serving food. It was difficult to choose as there were many tempting dishes. Finally we close chicken teriyaki salad, beef teriyaki salad, king prawn dim sum, aromatic crispy duck with pancakes, egg fried rice, shared by three of us. Everything was excellent, freshly cooked and very tasty. The waiter was friendly and polite and the chef popped over twice, also polite and friendly. Definitely one to return to as we want to try more dishes.

Never again. Placed order online and went to collect 40 minutes later. Place was empty; no staff and nobody dining. I waited, and waited and another customer arrived to collect their order. Front of house guy finally appeared after 5+ minutes, oblivious to the fact we were there. He sat at his laptop and streamed football to a large screen TV before a chef appeared and prompted the guy to attend to us. Guy advised me it would only be a few minutes. 10 minutes later, food finally appeared. Dire service. Mediocre food; Singapore rice was dry, stodgy and lacking flavour. Never again. Ver carta

Housmans Pan Asia Restaurant and Bar is a fantastic discovery. The welcoming atmosphere and excellent service make it a great dining experience. The menu offers a wide range of Asian and European dishes, all of which are enticing. My husband ordered the Thai Bento box, starting with delicious chicken satay skewers and homemade satay sauce, followed by a flavorful Thai green chicken curry with fragrant rice. Each dish was expertly prepared and incredibly tasty. I couldn't resist sampling from his plate! I had the stir-fried beef with ginger, spring onions, and oyster sauce, which was the best I've ever had. The dish was piping hot, with fresh ingredients like pak choy and a delicious sauce th...

My partner and I have been avid fans of this restaurant since its previous iteration as a tapas and bar establishment. We eagerly awaited its re-opening, but despite the negative reviews, we decided to give it a chance a year later in hopes of improvement. Unfortunately, our experience was incredibly disappointing. The meal we were served lacked any additional touches or presentation that one would expect from a restaurant. We had to ask for chopsticks, as only knives and forks were provided. The rose wine my partner ordered arrived at room temperature, and the table napkins were made of cheap, paper material. To make matters worse, our main courses were brought out while we were still eatin...

Pretty much the same as the previous review. We had booked for 2pm on a Sunday afternoon and turned up to see that the place was in darkness and locked up… this is despite the opening hours were 12pm until 10pm. So we knocked the door in hope that we would be able to go to our table. A guy it seemed was locked in from the inside and asked us through the window to knock the residents door next door (it seems we had woke them up). Eventually after a brief wait someone came down and opened up. We took our seats at the table and proceeded to order our food and drinks. When ordering our food, we were then asked if we wanted to write on the menu what we wanted!! (We obviously said no) Any normal r... Ver carta
