Chef Adam Purnell, also known as Shropshire Lad, is opening a permanent site in Telford.

Commenting on the launch of Embers Shropshire, Adam said: “To all of you who asked me when I’m going to open my own place and I told you ‘never’, I’m really sorry, I lied!

“I’m so excited to announce that Embers Shropshire will open this spring at the former site of the Green Wood Cafe on the Smallwoods site in Coalbrookdale, Telford.”

Adam is currently looking for experienced chefs, baristas and front-of-house staff to share his brand-new adventure. To apply for any of the posts, email your CV to: adampurnellshropshirelad@gmail.com
