Will not be frequenting this place again. Firstly the disabled toilet was not secure and started to fall apart when in use. My friend who is a vegetarian ordered a Thai green curry which gave a list of vegetables when it arrived it had 6 pieces of sweet potato only in it. When waitress was asked she went to the kitchen came back with a dish of raw peppers and said chef forgot to put them in. Later when she complained to the manager she was told they don't prepare currys on the premises. No apology or discount on the meal. Food was not hot either. Disgraceful service.

The menu states that the festive menu is on until 31st Dec 2019 - so we went and ordered to then get told that it’s no available... which is fine but why are the festive menus still out on the tables if it’s not available? Except for that, everything was really good.

This is large pub/Restaurant, in close proximity to a Premier Inn, offering the usual Brewers Fayre menu.The service was swift and the food was appetising. Although you would expect nothing less from this chain.It was a Sunday night, so we also had the benefit of their weekly Pub Quiz. We failed misersbly, being 13th out of 16 teams. Still it was enjoyable and helped the evening pass pleasurably.We enjoyed the food and the evening.

As the title goes this is an average place. If you want high end don’t go here. If you want something a bit nicer than a fast food place than go here. There’s a wide selection on the menu but you have to go to the till to order, which can be quite a wait when it’s busy. The food does arrive quite quickly. I’m not sure if this is a good thing. Makes me think food is warmed up rather than cooked fresh. The cleanliness isn’t the highest standard. Sometimes tables are dirty. The toilets aren’t always clean or even in working order. Overall it depends what you’re looking for. I’ve used this for several family get togethers and works well as it has a varied menu.

Have had many meals there over the last 5 years and this time it was not very good. I ordered 8 Oz Sirloin then found out that they were out of it then order 12 oz rib eye cooked medium Rare. took awhile to get it as it was very busy the steak was overcooked and extremely dry but etible it is usually a good place to eat but if the quality of the food doesn't change i will probably not eat there again

We called in for the fabulous all you can eat Breakfast this morning, on our way to see relatives. What can I say the title of my review sums it up.....You can have as much as you want from pastries and coffees leading unto the main event of a full fry up..... I had 5 rashers bacon 4 sausages, 2 eggs, bubble and squeak, beans and to top it all off the chef even did 'Fried bread' for us even though it was not on the menu.Food was excellent and service the same....Big thanks to 'Kirk' and the team we will certainly be spreading the word..Great value and great quality best breakfast in Telford !!!

The weather outside is miserable.The warmth and welcoming from the Clock Tower staff was great as always.We sat in a wonderful location, we didn't need to wait long for our minds to be made up once looking at the menu.So starters ordered, mains and drinks chosen and ordered. We let the conversation commence.Along comes "Donna" apologising for not having waffles to go with my chicken and bacon....A few seconds later and we have decided that dessert waffles would be acceptable.Desision made Donna goes away and starts our order.Comes back with our starters. (I'm not one for starters usually however the hog roast bites were fantastic.) We continued to discuss the situation, the staff and chefs were of conflicting opinions as to weather dessert waffles are the way to go ... 50/50 split but I'm still confident in our decision.Chicken bacon and improvised dessert waffles with maple syrup was sublime. (Definitely recommend)Currently trying to arrange a "you survived your first day at your new job" meal just so we can do it all again.Will recommend to everyone.See you soonMr and Mrs Ball (Table 30)

Mother’s Day breakfast. The table was booked in advance for 7 . Staff very rude on arrival and was told to ‘ Stamd there ‘ whilst he pointed at the spot . Was told you pay in advance for breakfast which I then did for the whole party but we were waiting on three people. Was shown to table my daughter asked for a high chair and was told ‘ they are in the usual place ‘ To be fair the food was ok and a good selection even if slow on restocking but they were very busy it was Mother’s Day after all. Huge queue for coffee machine as only one and took such a long time for cups to be replenished. Needless to say I won’t be returning.

Lovely food, Katie served us who was lovely and well mannered as always.However the same could not be said for the duty manager Stuart after she left. We ordered desserts and waited in excess of 30 minutes, I had to ask a lady serving about it, and she brought them out shortly after (I didn't get her name). The first small amount on the spoon was lovely and warm, the second however was cold, very cold the same as my husbands. My husband took the desserts to the bar for a refund as we had no time to wait for more, to be greeted by Stuart the "manager" who informed my husband he would only refund 1 dessert, my husband came back to the table to tell me about this. Well I was not happy, I went to the bar with my husband to find out why a full refund was not being given and apparently they were half eaten. 2 spoons off each dessert is not half I can assure you. He told us his manager too would see it as that, I asked to see his manager which it was at that point he told us he was the "duty manager". It became apparent he has NO people skills and is a very abrupt and rude man. We finally got our refund to which he said I'm guessing that worked. Not what a customer wants to hear. He proceeded to tell us he's never done a refund before, which would fall to higher manager for lack of training and filled us with zero confidence of his capabilities. Maybe this should be addressed as well as his poor attitude.Another customer mentioned to me about how rude stuart was. I work in a customer faced role too, and I would never talk to anyone with such disrespect and rudeness as he displayed to us today.We eat here on a weekly basis but it does NOT make me want to return. I'm under no illusion that he will not be pulled up for this, so future customers be aware of this awful, disrespectful "manager".

I think I expected more but was disappointed. Staff and service were great and could not be more helpful, but the overall quality of the food was very disappointing. I had the half chicken which was over cooked and soggy! It filled a gap but that was it and would suggest that one looks elsewhere. Sorry chef but you need to raise your game. A diy picnic from a local supper market would have been a better option. Even Tesco’s BBQ chicken is would have been a huge improvement.

We really enjoy visiting Brewers Fayre the food is always excellent and the service is very good and the staff are friendly & helpful.We visited on Sunday 24th March,the sun was out and we decided to walk the dogs,and stop off for a quick drink before heading home.My husband ordered drinks and as he was conversing with staff was very rudely interrupted by a new member of staff I believe called Stuart,he was very rude and interrupted my husbands conversation with a member of staff which is unacceptable ! We have dined and taken drinks at this establishment for many years,and to be spoken to in this way is unacceptable,Customer relations regarding this particular member of staff is 0 % sorry to say as all other staff are super,he needs a lesson in customer/staff management,bitter taste to end our Sunday afternoon.

Service with a smile is an understatement. Stuart was rushed off his feet but still found time to make us feel welcome and provided an excellent choice of wine to go with our meals which is a much needed improvement at this pub - nothing was too much trouble for him. The food was as good as always. Will we visit again? Definitely now having not been here for almost 3 months due to poor service. This is an easy 5* review.

Visited the other week and I have to say the food was the best I’ve ever had there. After a few hiccups with the order (we wanted the kids meal out with starters & wrong dessert went through) they were quickly resolved by Katie S. She was really apologetic and made sure that everything was ok. She was good with our little girl and also very good with other tables. Only thing that I seem to have an issue with here and to be honest at most restaurants is the fact kids meals come out on piping hot plates and are placed in front of them. I always ask for another plate to then move the food onto to avoid any accidents. Apart from that would highly recommend here for a lovely meal, especially when the 2 dine for £8.99 offer is on as the portions and quality are excellent for the price!

Walked into The Clock Tower and stood by the door as it says 'Wait here to be seated'. Stood there for about 5mins but nobody came, so we decided to fine our own table. Sat there for 10mins for someone to take our order but again nobody came. My hubby decided to go and order the meals himself. I ordered a new drink called something like 'Strawberry Slam with pink gin. It looked really nice. Nice round glass, ice, pink gin, tonic water and strawberries. What I got was pink gin and tonic in a half pint glass, a glass you get if you have cola. No strawberries.

The food was fine, a bit expensive for what it is. Which is run of the mill pub food I would say. The toilets were unkempt, had broken seats, locks etc. The staff were nice but this place really needs some love and care put into it. It needs fixing up and maybe a reduction in prices because if you're going to charge a slightly higher price for average pub food you expect that extra money to be going in part to the upkeep of the place. Don't think I'd return, was just a bit underwhelming.

Me and my friends entered the restaurant at aprox 21:35. After returning from a trip to Leeds. We Came in to purchase a meal as the kitchen was still open. A member of staff then rudely told me to "move from this area of the resturant" as she was cleaning it. Then the same member of staff refused to serve us as "kitchen had shut down early" but then went on to serve another customer behind me in the queue. We felt insulted at the fact we were treated differently to other customers.

I visit the Clock Tower monthly with a large group of friends for lunch. We choose this location due to the convenience of location for the group, ample parking, but mainly due to the excellent value for money and the wonderful staff who look after us so well. Refillable hot or soft drinks and 2 meals for £10, you can't go wrong. All of our group enjoy their meals and although basic the food is always well cooked and plentiful. We have been visiting here for about 2yrs and on the very rare occasion there has been an issue the staff have been very quick to put things right! On our last occasion we had Katie looking after us, Katie and all of the staff we have come into contact with at the Clock Tower have been very friendly and welcoming and go out of their way to see we are looked after, I cannot praise or thank them enough! Booked again for next month and no reason for our group whose needs are well catered to even think of going anywhere else, especially when we get service with a smile!

We have used the clock tower regularly in the past, but our most recent visits have not been as pleasurable as they used to be. The menu has become very dull. There is very little to take the fancy. When I did decide what I wanted it wasn’t actually available. My second choice cane and was tasteless. The chips were over cooked. This was the same for my husbands meal. My daughters meal was just disgusting, and the giant Yorkshire pudding was like rubber. My youngest daughter however, had a meal from the children’s menu and thoroughly enjoyed it. Don’t think we will be back in a hurry.

This is a regular choice if we want a late lunch and do not want to travel too far. The menu has quite a wide range and for those looking for value there is a great daytime deal. Several weeks ago the ordering system reverted to placing it yourself at the bar and you get a receipt detailing exactly what has been ordered so no problem there. The drinks are served instantly and there is seldom much of a delay in the food being served by the very nice friendly staff who do check as they serve that it is what you ordered. We were in recently when a fellow customer was behaving in an appalling manner, shouting and quite threatening to the staff and manager, we other customers were relieved when she left as we could envisage the police being called as she was very disruptive. Glad to say that is not the norm here and that the food is always nicely cooked and presented and all the staff very helpful.

My husband and i went here for a lunch meal as he had the day off work, we ordered our food both vegetarian meals, but when my husband took a bite out of his he found it was meat! so i went and said you seem to have given us the wrong meal, the lady who was acting manager said no you ordered that meal, i said nope we wouldn't order meat as we are vegan, after i said this she said to get out we are barred, i am disabled so it takes longer for me to move she kept shouting at me. when i got home i called head office told her what had happened she said she would check it out, well less than an hour later i get an email saying we are banned and not allowed to step onto the premises apparently i was threatening when i said about the wrong meal. I dont shout as i have worked in customer service for years before i got ill, i would never shout at someone. so as you can imagine i am not happy with their service skills at all. i also found out that a party of 12 all got barred that same day same woman, all because they complained that the food came out at different times and the order wasn't correct!

Turned up here at 10.10 on Saturday for breakfast as a birthday treat for my 9 year old niece. Ok it was a table for 8 and they closed at 11. Got to the door asked for a table and just got told "NO". There was no explanation, no apology, or no offer of waiting or no suggestion of alternative restaurants. Left if a bit of a shock at just being told NO! Ended up going to 3 Fishes in Newport arriving at 10.30 and they couldn't do enough to make us feel welcome.

After a busy day shopping for the family, a late afternoon meal was required. The Clock Tower was ideal. Their two for £8-99 and refill drinks meant that we didn't over spend, and the quality excellent. My wife and I enjoyed our treat.

Let's start with the "good" bit. Our meals were pretty lacklustre. My half roast chicken tasted old, dry and had been butchered in such a way as to cause all the tiny spine bones to break up, making eating it far less enjoyable than it should. Chips were undercooked, salad garnish tasted cheap and poorly presented, huge slices of under-ripe tomoato chucked at plate. My wife's burger was edible. Kids meals basic but ok. Frankly, the food in McDonalds next door is better.

Morning visit for breakfast,excellent choice of ingredients to complete the size of meal that you require up to 10.30am.The Menu for the rest of the day looked very inviting so a second visit is a must.

We organised a birthday celebration for my father's 70th with family and friends. The staff provided a lovely area with a hot and cold buffet. The staff were great especially Katie who saw to everything we needed. Highly recommended.

Lovely lunch, I had the 8oz sirloin which was cooked to perfection. We were looked after by Louise, who took our drinks order at the table for us and promptly returned with them and then took our food order also. Very friendly and nothing was too much trouble. We didn’t order dessert on this occasion, but will definitely be back again. The staff are attentive and friendly and the meals are good quality.

We pre-booked a large party, even gave them the list of food in advance. They had to be told several times we had left a pre- booked list. The food came out, staff didn’t know the difference between rump and sirloin steak. Some people were served and had finished before the rest of the food came out. The staff are unprofessional and lack basic customer service skills.

The carpet was dirty. The décor basic and boring. The staff very average referred to client as 'mate' and didn't seem too confident in what they did. The food was OK , lacked any wow factor.my sirloin was a bit grizzly and fatty, i.e I actually ate about 2/3rds of it. Menu was extensive but a bit pub chain like. 20 minute wait for puds after ordering on a night when it didn't seem too busy. I won't rushback nor particularly recommend

Greeter unable to find booking for 9 , seated after 10 minute wait in coldest corner waited another half hour for waitress service another 20 minutes before drinks arrived, children hungry and irritable, air conditioning finally switched off we therefore warmed up enough to take coats off, food arrived soon after drinks all okay , waitress cleared half of table and disappeared for another half hour before returning to take dessert order and clear rest of plates, asked for bill - it never came so fed up of waiting and paid at bar.

Called in to meet up with a couple of mates on Friday lunchtime and was surprised at how busy it was, we were dealt with straight away and our drinks order was delivered quickly. 2 of us had gammon with egg and pineapple and 1 had a burger with mushrooms and cheese. We all enjoyed what we had and thought it was good value. One thing I did notice on the menu was the Pie Club with a choice of 5 pies which looked very good but they all had cheese in them so were ruled out for me as I can't eat cheese, out of 5 pies I would think they could have at least 1 without cheese.

We were staying in the premier inn just across the car park so we had breakfast booked already. The breakfast was lovely with lots to choose from with a mixture of cereals, pastries, toast, crumpets, yogurts and fruit which is all you can eat. You also get to choose what you would like on your fried breakfast and can choose as many items and how many of each you would like. We had our tea and coffee flasks and the staff were more than happy for us to fill these up to take with us on our journey.

Service changes every time we go. At one time you ordered at the bar. Next you found your table and you were served. Last time we went we sat down for 20 mins before the going to the bar again to order. the system had changed. we and another family had the same problem. The other thing is we had a discount card but if you do not go frequently you lose the points. I told the barman that do not use it any more. He did not seem to care.

Fantastic service couldn't fault them. We were one of those dreaded tables with allergies and picky people and no request was an issue. Our servers Ryan and Kaiyre were amazing. Definitely recommend

Went on Sunday 11th Feb, food ok, could have been hotter, would have told them, if anyone bothered to ask, service very poor, young team, no leadership, slow with drinks, took 3 attempts to deliver 1 coffee, brought over with no sugar, had to be asked for, no spoon had to be asked for. No goodbye

We visited the grove for Mother’s Day, 6 adults, 1 child. 3 x roast chicken, 2 x 8oz fillet steak, 1 children’s chicken nuggets +chips. My meal (steak) came out and looked great, although my stone wasn’t hot enough to cook my steak, onions and mushrooms, my steak although looked great, tasted horrible. £23 to only be satisfied with the chips! My wife also couldn’t eat the chicken and neither could my father Inlaw, only eating less that half there meals. I wouldn’t go back if I’d not Eaton for a month and was offered a free meal!
