Indulge! Shopping & Eating Out

Browse through Stafford's markets, designer outlets, high street names, and side streets full of character… break for lunch at one of the many restaurants, bars or coffee shops.

Shop in the ‘piazza-style’ square adjacent to the Shire Hall Gallery and in the modern Guildhall Shopping Centre. Wander away from the main street and discover picturesque lanes with individual designer shops and interesting eateries.

The market town of Stone boasts a thriving café culture, market and riverside location whilst Eccleshall offers an alternative to the High Street brands. Choose from the many bars and restaurants waiting to tempt you with award-winning food and wines.

Stafford, the home of a ‘Taste of Staffordshire’ – the county’s Good Food Awards, has something of a reputation for gourmet dining. Successful entries in the 2010 Awards were Moddershall Oaks Spa and The Swan Hotel.
