Locally produced food and drink on the menu at new Holiday Inn restaurant

BENNETT’S ice cream from Worcester and ales from the Wye Valley Brewery near Bromyard are just two of the local products to be found at the newly opened Cow on the Hill restaurant at Bromsgrove’s Holiday Inn hotel. The new restaurant offers a steak and grill menu with the emphasis on provenance of ingredients – all the steaks are from beef matured and grass fed on organic pastures in Northern Ireland’s Glenarm Estate.
