Frequently Asked Questions

Completely free. Browse hotels, restaurants, pubs and experiences, read the listings and contact businesses directly. No account required, no fees, no booking charges.

We research and list the best independent hotels, restaurants, pubs and experiences in Shrewsbury ourselves. Every listing is reviewed before it goes live. We focus on businesses with genuine character, a real story and something worth recommending to a visitor who wants more than the obvious choices.

Free listings include the basics. Paid Enjoy Business partners get full editorial descriptions written specifically for their business. The kind of writing that tells the real story of the place, not just its postcode and opening hours.

Every listing gives you the business contact details, website link and location. You book directly with them. We deliberately avoid linking to third-party booking platforms. No middleman, no commission.

Regularly. We add new listings, update existing ones and refresh photography throughout the year. If you spot something that needs correcting, email hello@enjoyshrewsbury.co.uk and we will update it quickly.

We keep listings as current as we can. Opening hours, menus and prices do change though, so always check directly with the business before making a special trip. Contact details are on every listing page.

Click List Your Business at the top of any page. You can start with a free basic listing or choose one of our paid Enjoy Business plans. We will be in touch within one working day to get you set up.

A free listing puts you on the directory with your name, address, phone, website link and one photo. An Enjoy Business paid plan is the full thing: professional photography, social media content, SEO articles, monthly analytics and your own Immersive. The listing is the door. Enjoy Business is the relationship.

An Immersive is a cinematic mini-documentary that tells the true story of your business. Produced once, owned permanently. On a desktop it plays as a wide cinematic film. On mobile it fills the entire screen in vertical format. One story, every screen, always exactly right. It is not a promotional video or a social media clip. It is the definitive telling of your story: why your building exists, what it feels like to arrive there, and why the people who run it love what they do. That story lives permanently at the top of your listing on Enjoy Shrewsbury, on your own website and at immerse.amavola.com. Every Premium partner receives one Immersive at onboarding, owned permanently. Elite partners receive one at onboarding and a new edition annually as their story evolves.

Every paid plan includes a professional onboarding shoot covered by the one-off setup fee of £199. Standard partners get 15 professionally edited photos and one brand video. Premium partners get 20 edited photos and one brand video. Elite partners get 30 edited photos and one brand video. The setup fee covers the shoot entirely. Nothing extra to pay.

No. All Enjoy Business plans are monthly rolling. You can cancel any time with 30 days notice. No minimum term, no penalty, no small print.

The Founder Partner offer is available to the first 5 businesses only. Founder Partners pay no setup fee and get their first month completely free, saving up to £898 depending on the plan. Once 5 businesses have signed up the offer closes permanently and standard pricing applies. If you are reading this and spots are still open, now is the time.

The Rolling Sandwich Plan (RSP) is the monthly campaign document Enjoy Business produces for every paid partner at the start of each month. It covers every social media post with full copy written, design briefs for every graphic, SEO article topics and target keywords, an analytics review from the previous month and goals for the month ahead. It is shared with you for approval before anything goes live. You stay in control. We do the work.

Most partners see meaningful growth in social media reach and engagement within the first 60 to 90 days. SEO results from articles build over three to six months as search engines index and rank new content. Photography and video have immediate impact. Better visuals on your channels from day one.

Enjoy Shrewsbury focuses on independent businesses with a genuine local story. We do list some well-known brands where they are genuinely part of the Shrewsbury hospitality scene. The Enjoy Business programme and Immersive are designed for owner-operated independents who want to stand out from the chains, not blend in with them.

Most agencies sell you content. Enjoy Business finds your story and tells it. A regular agency posts on your behalf. Enjoy Business produces an Immersive, a cinematic documentary about your business, writes articles that tell your story in the words your customers are already searching for, and builds your digital presence around what makes you irreplaceable, not just what makes you visible. And we do it for a fraction of what a standard UK agency charges for the same volume of work.

Booking.com, Expedia and TripAdvisor charge between 15 and 20 percent commission on every booking they send you. Enjoy Shrewsbury is designed to do the opposite. Every visitor who discovers your business through our platform is sent directly to you: your website, your phone, your door. No commission, no middleman. Even a modest shift from OTA to direct bookings can pay for your Enjoy Business plan many times over.

Give us 30 days notice and that is it. No penalty, no awkward conversation, no small print. We are confident enough in what we deliver that we do not need to lock anyone in.
