Brown's Restaurant, set in a converted boathouse by the river south of the cathedral, is the most atmospheric dining option in Worcester. The building sits at the water's edge and the view of the Cathedral from the terrace is as good as any in the city — especially on summer evenings when the light catches the stonework. The cooking is reliable modern British with local Worcestershire produce well represented.
The menu changes seasonally and the wine list is well chosen. It is popular for weekend lunch and dinner; booking ahead is advisable. The location off New Road puts it close to the cricket ground, which makes it a good option after a day's play.
