Food critic Andy Richardson enjoys classic fare at The Dickin Arms in Shrewsbury
They sit there unnoticed, largely, observing the scene of a delightful Shropshire pub-diner, that combines excellent local ales with decent, home-cooked food and pleasing service.
On high days and holidays, it’s a picture. Lawns are immaculately clipped, houses are well maintained and at the pub itself, there are towering, colourful flower planters that are teeming with seasonal blooms. It is stunning, in the golden hour, when the sun begins to set and when the sky is ablaze with hues of red, orange, and amber.Muted tones provide a sophisticated backdrop while the fixtures and furnishings within make the venue of-its-place.
Earthy, rich, warming and nourishing, the soup had been skillfully made and was marvellously flavoursome. Providing an encouraging and impressive start to the evening, it was a hug in a bowl.My halloumi fries with a small salad and a tomato salsa were equally good. The halloumi had been dusted in a light flour before being fried to a golden crisp. They were delicious.
I ordered a platter of three sliders – or, mini burgers – that featured a pulled pork number, with melted cheese; a chicken variant, with Moroccan spice and mint; and a classic beef burger, with more of the salsa.The beef burger was great – cooked through, with plenty of flavoursome scorch marks, though the salsa was a bit of a disappointment, slightly bland and underseasoned.
