For daytime
food
, try the
Goodlife Wholefood Restaurant
in the antique surroundings of Barrack's Passage, off Wyle Cop, or snack at
Philpotts' Quality Sandwiches
, which deserves its name and is located at 15 Butcher Row. In the evening, there's the
Sol
, 82 Wyle Cop (tel 01743/340560; closed Sun), an outstanding if pricey restaurant featuring local ingredients such as Shropshire lamb cooked in a broadly Mediterranean style, and tasty tandoori at
Shalimar
, by the abbey at 23 Abbey Foregate (tel 01743/366658). Some of the best
pub food
in the centre is served at
Loggerheads
, in St Alkmud's Place, with wood-panelled walls and exposed beams; try their filling "Big Head Pie" - steak pieces topped with puff pastry and served with chips, salad and a pint for around A?5. Other good
pubs
are the
Severn Stars
on Coleham Head, just over the English Bridge from the town centre; the smoke-free
Three Fishes
, in an ancient building on Fish Street; and the lively
Coach & Horses
, on Swan Hill just south of The Square. The Music Hall
cinema
next door to the tourist office on The Square, screens art-house as well as mainstream releases (tel 01743/281281). Other useful information
