Heart of England

Ye Olde Punch Bowl Inn is an ideal venue for small to large groups, as well as multiple coach parties with our large car park, and our 'Ludlow Suite' which can comfortably seat 130 guests with ample room.  We host many UK coach companies exploring Shropshire and Worcestershire (we have a sister pub The Plough Inn, Far Forest near Bewdley, Worcestershire) and our teams are trained to cater for large groups, from breakfasts, through brunch, lunch, afternoon teas, and evenings.
 
The Ludlow Suite is Bridgnorth’s biggest banqueting suite and we are renowned to hosting the best events and parties. Whatever the occasion we can accommodate any special occasion, complimented with our award winning service and great food we are confident we will fulfill your expectations.
 
We have been consistent in delivering excellent food and customer service even for the most discerning clients. Rest assured we can arrange a fabulous package tailored to your requirements so please don’t hesitate to contact an events manager who would be more than happy to discuss your requirements.

Entertainment can be arranged for any package and we currently have four entertainers that we can recommend from singing 50’s & 60’s to Latin Dance and Line Dancing whatever suits.
We strongly recommend coach tour operators to speak direct to an events manager for multiple bookings to benefit special discounts on a contractual agreement.
