We’re hiring: Lead Server

The Lloyd opens in Shifnal this October — and we’re building the front-of-house team that will define it.

This isn’t a job where you just take orders and clear plates. You’ll own a section, run the arc of a guest’s evening start to finish, and get properly trained on a w**e list built to the same standard as the food. If you’ve worked somewhere with real standards — rosette restaurant, serious independent, quality hotel dining — and want to help set the tone for something new rather than slot into something established, this is for you.

£28-32k, equal shared tips, profit share, pension, 28 days holiday, staff food, supplier visits, proper training.

👀👀 A first look at the winter menu.

Dishes are built to share — plates arrive as they’re ready, for the whole table to enjoy together.

Salt-aged 20oz T-bone. Slow cooked Troutdale Farm lamb neck. Hay-smoked goat’s curd. Shropshire c***r and apple tart tatin. Sourced from a small number of trusted growers, farmers and fishmongers, in Shropshire and the Welsh Marches where possible — the work of Chef Director Laura Kimber and her team.

This is a sample, not a fixed menu. It will change between now and opening night, and regularly after that, as the seasons bring different ingredients in.

A Sunday lunch menu will follow soon.

The Lloyd opens 29 October. Reservations open soon.

Tell us: which dish (or dishes) are you most looking forward to tasting?

Strip out. Down to the bones 🦴

We took the cameras in for a full walkthrough of the strip out at The Lloyd — every layer peeled back to what’s actually holding this building up. Original brick. Old plaster. It’s not glamorous yet, but this is where The Lloyd actually begins.

Watch through — we’ve added notes throughout showing exactly what’s been stripped, what’s staying, and what’s coming next.

And stick with it to the end, because we’re finally revealing the date.

Sign up at the-lloyd.co.uk for early access to reservations — first in line when the doors open.

🥂 Last week we headed down to Black Chalk for a tour with Neil Irvine, learning first-hand what makes this place so special.

There’s something special about this one for me — the vineyards sit just 15 minutes from where I grew up, so putting Black Chalk on The Lloyd’s list feels like bringing a little bit of home to Shifnal.

Across 30 acres, the vines grow in 34 different clone and rootstock combinations of Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, Pinot Meunier, Pinot Précoce and Pinot Gris, rooted in shallow soil sitting right above solid chalk — and you can taste it. That natural minerality runs through the whole range, while every w**e still keeps its own distinct character.

We’re big believers in backing British producers where the quality earns it, and this is exactly why. Can’t wait for you to taste it when we open our doors this October. 🍇

FREE – Reclaimed Yellow Buff slabs, 450x450mm, collection only.

50sqm+ available (six stacks), reclaimed as part of the refurb at The Lloyd. Currently sat in a basement so you’ll need to be able to carry them out yourselves. Great condition for a patio project once cleaned up.

Available to collect tomorrow (Thurs) afternoon or all day Friday — I won’t be around over the weekend, so those are the windows for now. First come, first served. Message us if interested

Deep in the details today at The Lloyd 🛋️✨

The team behind The Lloyd met with David Dilaj to lock in finishes, layouts and all the pretty stuff — fabrics, brass fittings, stone samples, the lot. This is where a restaurant stops being a floor plan and starts becoming a feeling.

Because it’s the finer details that make somewhere special. The warmth of the timber, the weight of a good handle, the fabric on the banquette you’ll sink into with a glass of something excellent. We want The Lloyd to be the kind of place you settle into for the night — beautiful, inviting, relaxed, comfortable.

Here before we know it. 🍷🥂

Free stuff at The Lloyd 🍽️

We’re clearing out some surplus kitchen and tableware — plates, glasses, a few bits and bobs — before it heads to recycling. If you can use it, come and grab it rather than let it go to waste.

Drop by this afternoon at 5 Park Street, Shifnal. First come, first served — just turn up and see what’s there. Say hello to Chef Laura Kimber while you’re at it!

The building keeps surprising us. This week it was a lift nobody’s touched since the 1960s.

Goods lift out, counterweight with it — by all accounts the heaviest our contractors have ever pulled from a building. We’re working out how to give it a second life somewhere in the restaurant, rather than the scrap yard.

The old lift cages are staying, repurposed for the w**e store. And behind the stripped-back walls, a set of bricked-up windows we didn’t know were there.

Slowly, the building is telling us more about itself than the drawings ever did.

Menu reveal next week.

DESIGN REVEAL

This is the room. Forty-two covers, designed by David Dilaj— intimate, restrained, built so the food does the talking.

Leading the kitchen is Laura Kimber, Chef Director. The food is seasonal, local where possible, and always honest — celebrating the best British produce with proper technique, a clever, confident hand on fish, and real care for vegetarian guests.

Restrained. Refined. Understated. A room built for dwelling — good food, good w**e, a favourite record, and the people you'd choose to share them with.

Celebrate a special occasion, enjoy a midweek dinner, or treat the whole family to Sunday lunch. Whatever brings you in, we hope you stay a little longer once you're here.

Tell us what you think 🤔

Work has started at The Lloyd. The old signage is down, the walls are stripped back, and old brickwork is seeing the light of day after 60 years. Beneath the mess, the room we've been planning is beginning to take shape. Big changes are coming. We’re revealing the interior design concept in a few days — we would rather take the time to do this properly than rush it.
