Fallow Field in Telford and Wrekin

Went New Year’s Eve food was average,got seated round the back next to a large table with feral kids,we asked to move they pulled a face but we moved anyhoo as it was dead all night with as much atmosphere as a closed library,the seats were torn and tatty there were no sliced fruits for any of the cocktails etc,more feral kids on the bit of a dance floor with mediocre dj don’t think we will be back,

Had a very nice lunch the food very good nice and hot. We had very good service from Mark ,even had a candle on my sweet for my birthday. Would highly recommend the chicken pie it was really tasty.

Myself and family visited just before Christmas for our Christmas get together and had a lovely time. Food was excellent, service was 5*, and they were also very accommodating and had a lot of time for our two toddlers! They couldn’t do enough for us!! We were served by Mark and Trisha. Thank you so much, we will be back :)

I ate breakfast every day pretty much from the 18th November to the 4th December and it was good sitting warming myself in front of the fire! The omelette and English was beautifully cooked on the days she was in by Kim.Julie was lovely serving and kept the fire roaring and was good craic. Nice stay thanks. I ate in the evening as well and all the staff were great.

Have eaten here before and loved it, so went for the Christmas set menu as our family get together. Lovely atmosphere and staff, but the food was awful. Genuinely the worst turkey dinner I've ever had, and I've eaten in some dodgy places. Everyone's was bad. Didn't complain as it's not something we feel comfortable doing, especially at a family get together. So dissapointed as we chose Fallow Field because of the quality of the food last time. We won't be back.

Visited fallow fields for the first time for breakfast we all chosen the works breakfast I must say it was brilliant good choice of continental and the cooked breakfast was cooked perfect A big thankyou to julie for looking after us but the highlight of the morning was seeing Richard and Trish again looking forward to our next visit 😉😉 ...Paul deb and emma

Great food at a good price. Service is super.

3 of plus went of for a Christmas catch up, we arrived at 7 as we had a reservation. We waited nearly an hour for our food order to be taken and drinks order was only taken once. The second time we had to ask the very miserable member of staff who brought our food over for another bottle of wine...much to her disgust. The food was ok but nothing exciting or worth the money. We planned in having more drinks and desserts but as it got close to closing time we didn't bother as we had literally spent all night waiting around. When we paid the bill we told the member of staff about our poor visit and she said sorry I'm bar staff and that was it.

Found it quite expensive £2.95 for a half pint of Cider

There was only a small spoonful of mushy peas with the fish and chips

It was as it should have been. You go in, someone shows you yo your table, you order drinks, you order food, its served, you pay and leave. Waiting time was good, staff friendly. Left feeling complete.

Awful service. Ordered steak medium it came out well over cooked. Kept quiet. Ti.e for desert. Ordered soft chocolate sponge with ice cream , it came out and was promptly dropped onto table breaking g the plate, and covering me in chocolate sauce. Very poorly run , defo a never again experience 😕

Went as a party of four for the Xmas menu, staff were extremely friendly and helpful. Food was delicious and plenty of it. Lovely atmosphere.

It's a chain pub, the food is decent and so is the beer. It's exactly what you'd expect

Pub is in a great location next to the buisness park electric car chargers are available most of the time and never known them be faulty. Food is above average for a pub chain and it all looks good. Decent selection of beers, it's not the cheapest for beer so that has to be kept in mind. Also has an open fire

The Christmas party was a success, I recommend booking for more people

Really great service from Casey and his staff. Just as good was the quality of the food and drinks. Prompt personal service and attention, primarily from Casey who was also very friendly and attentive. Made the evening relaxed and enjoyable. Thank you Fallowfield.

Underwhelming. Worth while if you have a discount voucher.

Jayne was an excellent server and food by Nathan was yummy

Amazing food great service jayne was brilliant thanks. Not too expensive and great value for money. We all left feeling very full.

Great meal service was a little slow due to not many staff on. The staff were very friendly and polite. Food was great too.

What a beautiful place, the food was lovely, small portion of sea bass but absolutley beautiful! Service was a little bit slow but will definitely return for dinner tomorrow :)

Love it here ... a massive thanks to Jayne and Kris for the delicious food and warm welcome ... absolutely love Jayne 🙂 so close to work, great service and food will absolutely be coming back again xx

We visit the fallowfield regularly and we absolutely love it there. The atmosphere is always lovely, with a super warm welcome from Mark the manager and all the team. The entire staffing team are super friendly and helpful and we especially enjoy Marks quizzes on a Wednesday evening 😁! We always enjoy the food and drinks as it’s always great quality.

Quiz is always good fun and great atmosphere. Really dog friendly, and great service

Perfect for a decent lunch and charging your EV.

Perhaps management should send a memo out to notify the staff that a smile costs nothing.

the staff were amazing plus the food was amazing as well! food came out really fast and were really good portion sizes! :)

Easy to book a table over the internet arrived Staff very pleasant, food was good enjoyed our evening.

Excellent food and service by Jayne.

Pulling up to The Fallow Field early on a Saturday evening (approx 17.55) the car park was packed, which I took be a good sign. It wasn't. We were a group of five with a table booking for 18.30. We had to wait a few minutes at the entrance for someone to come and show us to our table, whilst the staff at the bar, next to the reception area, steadfastly ignored us (and the people behind us). We were shown to our table and told that our server would be with us "in a minute" to take a drinks order. Eventually, we gave up waiting and I went to the bar to get the drinks myself (the server came over whilst I was away so take that as you want). I ordered my drink and then tried to order an espresso martini - sorry, they're off as the coffee machine is broken (meaning no coffee for anyone, at all, all night? Really?) Anyway, I ordered an alternative and returned to my seat. The rest of the party arrived and after a short-ish wait we were able to order more drinks and the meals. The server read the meal order back to us and he had captured everything correctly. After about five minutes, the server returned to inform us that two of our starters (the Pate) were all sold out (already). We ordered something different and he went away. Starters arrived in good time. Two of us had the calamari; one of us loved the dish - chunky bits of calamari battered and fried - unlike the normal rings that get served elsewhere. The other calamari eater did not like this presentation and said they much preferred it served as rings. Main meals followed. Well, most of them did. One of the meals (correctly recorded by our server) had been forgotten so whilst four of us tucked in to avoid them going cold, one us waited (not too long) for the remaining meal to be cooked and then served. The vegan curry was deemed lovely, the fish and chips were nice, Hunters Chicken was good -all the mains (eventually) went down well. Desserts? Go on then. Rich caramel tart was on the lips of one of us until they realised it was served cold (what? No thanks) and they opted, instead, for the Crumble dessert. They found that the apples were hard and unpleasant in the dish so didn't finish it. The chocolate brownie sundaes were lovely but mine contained more than a hint of orange in it that was not as described in the menu - not an issue for me but I'm not sure it was as it should have been. During the meal we had also ordered a couple of drinks which took their time to come so, in my estimation, the full car park, earlier, was because either service was really slow or they were understaffed. We didn't make a song and dance about these minor issues nor did we complain about anything on the night but we left feeling a little disappointed with the whole thing. The bill came to approx. £36 a head which, for three courses (for only three of us, two courses for the other two)) and a couple of drinks (again, for just three of us) was just at the tipping point of acceptable. Would we go there again? Some of us wouldn't, if we were paying, and some of us would. Not the best experience of pub style food we've ever had nor the worst. Service, however, could definitely do with some improvement in terms of speed and attention to detail - e.g. the kitchen could let the servers know what machinery is out of order and what dishes are off the menu so they could let people know before people order. Minor things but they have the capacity to annoy out of proportion.

Excellent service with Jayne she was so amazing and we had a giggle! The chef John produced an amazing meal for tour. We will be returning soon as great value for money and super ambiance for a Monday Evening.

This Fallow Field is an amazing place for food and drinks. The atmosphere is perfect with the lights and the music especially during Christmas. The food made by the chefs Lee and Chris was outstanding with great portions with both the look and taste being astonishing. The staff we got served by, Rich and Jayne, were lovely and always being helpful where they could. I would happily come back to the Fallow For food. Drink quality was perfect, both in taste and presentation.

Great food . Good selection of beers.

My daughters veg burger was hard and Luke warm and my meal was Luke warm

Waiting staff are lovely, prompt and attentive. Receptionist needs some customer service training though! The last 2 visits we were greeted with a grumpy, disengaged person. We thought the first time was a one off but sadly the second visit was similar, not very welcoming at all.

Visited for a family members birthday and was an excellent experience. The food was outstanding and the staff are all so friendly and welcoming, they really did make our night! Will definitely be returning and highly recommend. Thankyou to you all for such a lovely experience xxxxx

Value for money food at lunchtime

Had a great first Xmas tonight. Great service as always from all staff front of house and kitchen. Jayne, Kris and Ryan did a top job nothing was too much trouble. ( just one thing the dinner was a bit sparse of gravy, needs addition if requested but no charge) I’m always left feeling full and would always recommend the pub and hotel to family and friends. Keep up the good work 👍

Arranged a birthday meal for my mothers 60th birthday for 18 people the young man from start to finish was great however there was this women that was also dealing with us that was very rude we did ask if they could bring the cake out after meals finished once brought out we asked if we could have plates and was told we do not offer plates as they don't have many and was given napkins spoken with the manager and he said we do offer plates witch we know as we have been comming there for years to celebrate birthdays were as now we would re consider coming here again

Food was amazing. Waiter was friendly. Lady who sat at door greeting people had an awful attitude. Not a friendly approach at all. I said that I never recieved the 30% off code and she said, no code no discount and walked off. Was not helpful at all. Thankfully I later found my email in the junk folder, which she could have told me to check. For a person who greets people, she really is lacking customer service and even a smile

Good value, very clean with a great friendly pub

Had a lovely meal at the fallow field, excellent food, they were quite busy so took a little while but the food was lovely and our server Jaynne was lovely and we had a lovely chat about other items on the menu to try next time after our meal. My son and I had the steak and my wife had the cheese, leek and potato pie. Our steak who I was told by Jaynne was cooked by Graham the chef, was cooked to perfection. The only part that let the service down which is why i took one star off was the attitude of would you believe the assistant manager Trish. She first greeted us at the entrance and we gave our booking details, no smile, no real eye contact and gave us a table outside the toilets. We asked to move to a different table, I pointed out a couple free in the corner and the response I got was a huff and a response “I will have to check, we are very busy”. She came back and offered us a different table to the ones I suggested and was only a few feet away from the other one. So as to not make a big fuss we accepted it to then be told as she was walking away, bring your menu’s with you from the other table. Not the kind of service i would expect and all the time we were there till we left the suggested tables remained free. Overall the food is amazing and I didn't want to leave a bad review because of one bad apple as all other staff were smiling and friendly.

Second time we got there and our booking couldn't be found. After showing our online confirmation we were shoved in the bar area and told to order at the bar when ready; no apology, nothing. Sorry, but we booked a table in the restaurant which includes waiter service. Obviously our custom is neither valued nor appreciated or wanted, so we'll give that place a miss from now on

We were seated by the door which had a bit of a draft. The food we had was good but it was a Sunday and we had intended to have Sunday Roast but there were none left (table was booked for 6.00 pm). First choice pudding was also not available. On the plus side, good choice of ales and all our servers were very good.

Very clean, comfortable room, and peaceful. Free parking and just outside entrance. Friendly staff who went out of their way to accommodate us. Great stop over on a long journey. Booking was straight forward.

Nice meal but kids portions are a little small and don’t include a drink. Our waitress was very nice.

Food seemed good quality. Portion sizes seemed small for the value and unfortunately food temperature of food wasn’t warm enough. Vegetables were cold. Such a shame as it could have been such a lovely meal.

Only one chef in the kitchen, there was a sign as we walked in after pre-booking, food took along time to come out and steak was overdone and curry was cold, hugely disappointed.

Haven't been in a while! Me & my hubby came for lunch today,food was amazing we both enjoyed it very much. It was very busy due to half term but staff we're very efficient. Nice friendly staff

Stayed here overnight and ate Sunday and also breakfast. All was good, even served real ales. Friendly staff. Nice room, well equipped and reasonably priced. Would definitely stay again.

Unfortunately this wasn’t a good experience. We were seated at 3, we got out drink ant 3:42. Our food came out at 4:06 we left by 4:20. I ordered a drink and was brought a different one. When I tried to change it I was told.’well we don’t have it’ it would have been nice to have the choice. Secondly we ordered 4 trio roasts as we wanted crackling. We were brought no crackling. When I asked I was told it’s probably gone. I asked if they could check I was brought a bit of fat maybe the size of 50 pence ( for four people). It had no crackling but did have the string. The parsnips weren’t cooked. I ordered cauliflower cheese. It wasn’t good at all. It was boiled cauliflower with tablespoon of sauce from a can/tub. It wasn’t even baked. It was anaemic and disgusting so we left it. I didn’t even want to try a pudding, this privilege cost is £90+ I didn’t want to pay but my children took me out for an anniversary and paid it. Can’t say I would like to return.

Lovely local pub/restaurant, great for Sunday Roast

Im picky when it comes to food. It wasn’t the best but it was nice. The hotel itself and the the staff on my arrival and on Saturday were all lovely. Very friendly, smiled, spoke and made our stay worth it. Thanks you guys.

Been here a few times when we feel like a treat breakfast. The staff are always polite friendly and professional. You could go elsewhere and pay more for a bigger portion or “farm shop” ingredients, but for the price you pay here and the good quality food you get on the breakfast plate, you really can’t beat it!. Fallow fields is our favourite place to go for breakfast.

Nice place, nice people, nice food, what else?!

The food was great, the service outstanding and it was so nice that the alcoholic drinks were so delicious. As a vegan, I really would recommend this place!

Overall we had a very nice dinner. 3 items that we had ordered were unavailable but understandable in the current climate. The waitresses were very happy and helpful.

Perfect one of the best pies I have had and it was a proper pie

Lovely reasonably priced food, good service and a nice atmosphere

Lovely atmosphere, stylish place, great customer service, we were acknowledged immediately, given a table and and our order was taken quickly. Food served much quicker than expected. The food was beautiful to a very high standard. The whole experience was a pleasure.

We all had the 'Veggie Works' breakfast. It was delicious - perfectly cooked. It was great being able to help yourself to toast etc. from the continental buffet. The staff were nice and helpful, and the atmosphere was very pleasant (we were able to bring our dog too). Definitely recommend and will visit again.

Visited for the first time as part of a group of 6. The service was fast and the food was really nice (I had chicken and mushroom pie, which was really tasty!)

Spent 2 nights here for a wedding nearby 5* service I would recommend and breakfast is amazing

We were looked after by Jayne and Kim, made us very welcome...nothing was to much trouble for them...highly recommended.

Very accommodating, we had a large party and all the staff were helpful and friendly. There was a delay with my daughters starter main and pudding which felt a shame for her as it was all 3 courses that was delayed but the rest of the party was relatively quick, my daughter's salad that she ordered tasted of fish and the croutons were soft in texture, so she didn't eat this lucky we ordered an extra main that she was able to eat instead. Over all our experience was good and for such a large party your team did a great job of looking after us. Thank you for making my Dad's retirement and birthday celebrations so relaxed and enjoyable.

Excellent from start to finish very polite staff, meal was good and we all enjoyed would reccomend to family and friends

Receptionist came across rude, staff gossiping about each other next to us. Food is over priced for the small portion received, had to wait 10 mins for someone to serve us, then the food took ages to come out.

Great service and friendly staff

Very good service from Ellie and Chef Ryan. However was a little cool in the dining area nothing uncomfortable though. Food was amazing no complaints and piping hot.Very good.

I stayed at the Fellow Field Pub and Hotel for 11 nights, enjoying both breakfast and dinner daily. The staff were exceptionally helpful and friendly, particularly the manager overseeing breakfast. I frequently ordered the calamari as a starter and the sirloin steak for the main course, both of which were consistently cooked to perfection. The breakfast menu was outstanding; my favorite dish was the smashed avocado on toast accompanied by hash browns and mushrooms. Overall, the hotel experience was excellent.

Fairly average pub. Good food but gone down hill a bit since they stopped doing the rotisserie chickens.

We came on Saturday amazing service and food quality outstanding, we will definitely coking back with my family at Christmas time

Great food friendly staff a brilliant experience

Lovely food and excellent service

The welcome was really lovely, staff were friendly and they accommodated our friend’s dog who had a nice time. Food was lovely and service was quick. Well done team.

Lovely fresh fish, no bones, chips crispy and dry. Will be going again.

Jayne and Kris were excellent; friendly and attentive. I had an issue with my booking and they were very helpful and understanding. I’ve stayed and eaten here many times and it’s always my go to when working in the area.

All ok. Beds are small. Reception was a bit odd.... It feels like you've checked in for a meal rather than a hotel stay. People are kind and friendly.

we found staff welcoming, polite, and tentative. Food was really nice if I had any criticism it would be the staff dress when you pay for table service which is not cheap you would expect the staff to be dressed to impress as they are ambassadors for the company, our table waitress was dressed in a very loud tee shirt rather tatty jogging bottoms and trainers hair was unkempt rather a let down Yours sincerely

Service was great and food was good, could have just been a little warmer. Having the EV chargers an added bonus. Would be great if they offered a discount when using the chargers and eating/drinking.

Great food and great service at a good price.

Booked sunday lunch for husband and myself, our drinks orders & food orders were taken after a few mins wait, i had roast beef husband had mixed grill, both were delicious, the roast potatoes were heaven as was the huge yorkshire pud& felt very full but could squeeze in a pud, we both went for sticky toffee pudding Jayne took our orders & kris was chef both did a great job would definately recommend a visit

Great service and food yet again! Jayne always made sure our wine glasses were topped up and Graham cooked a banging Lasagne. Will be back again

Always friendly and welcoming. Food always 👍

Pleasant staff & environment, good food - what more could we need?

Thank you Jayne our fantastic waitress for a lovely evening with great food cooked by Ryan their amazing chef we are regulars here and always look forward to our next visit

We've been coming here a few times now and to say we never had a bad meal we've even brought friends we us who loved it to now we've been to other restaurants and its good the first time maybe the next but then things start slipping but here never have a problem even tonight was busy are waitresses jayne still made sure we was attend too as all his other customers was too great place to come fabulous as always keep up the good work don't slip like others do my other half days the fish and chips is always amazing I hear this is thanks to chef Ryan 👍 keep it up guys I love it so much I've asked for a job whi wouldn't want to work with jayne 😍

Me and My family stays this weekend - cant fault the service - friendly welcome - gave us our room keys - we hadn't booked a table but we were squeezed in - fast service - great food and catered for my GF son - the hotel was close clean and spacious, breakfast in the AM we did a few substitutions so clean plates all round 10/10 stay

Thoroughly impressed with the service, quality of food, environment and value for money. Definitely recommend.

A wonderful atmosphere and food was great. We had the added bonus of live music. So nice to have adequate parking, it really made a difference.

Stayed here a couple of times for work, but won't be again. Whilst the servers individually are nice it is badly managed. You're left standing at the bar for ages waiting to get served while various people potter about behind the bar ignoring those waiting to get served. I was staying in the rooms, which are shabby and definitely need a refresh, but was rudely told we couldn't eat in the restaurant one night because all the tables had been reserved for the quiz, however myself and colleagues tried later and were told we could have a table and when we sat down there were loads of reserved tables empty. The manager was a rude woman who needs customer service training, which is a shame as the woman working at the breakfasts couldn't have been nicer. All in all there are definitely nicer more welcoming hotels in the area.

Amazing service .Great atmosphere Food amazing .

Waited a long time for drinks. Food took so much longer. Went to bar to order drinks, lady behind the bar was very dismissive serving people who were there after me and even said to go back to the table to wait to be served. Two people in my party ordered the steak only for it to arrive stone cold and still pink. Staff member came to collect the first one and was very miserable and unapologetic. One of the redone steaks came back and was still inedible, the manager came along and was very apologetic. Which we were very grateful for. Also ordered a couple of drinks which they ran out of, and to be fair to him, he sorted a cocktail on the house.

The promised 30% off voucher never arrived, the singing was awful and intrusive, the prices were silly and we never saw a smile from a single staff member, so we paid for our drinks and left.

Food was lovely couple of dishes unavailable service was good staff very friendly only thing was all dishes didn't come out together we were a party of 9 and two had to wait why others started eating nice atmosphere nice night had many thanks

Mums birthday. Went for the light bite lovely. Good service nice food lovely atmosphere definitely going back thanks

Had a bad experience here 2 years ago so thought I'd give them another chance. But nothing had changed. After being seated and 20 minute wait our drink order was taken. Then another wait to get our drinks. Our food order was taken by "Karen" as for a minute thought we'd booked the wrong diner ? . We were told no turkey even though this was 2pm on a Sunday? Food was served in various bowls and plates and no consistency throughout we ordered a bowl of chips £3.50 these came out in a sugar bowl containing 10 chips ? . My daughter had chocolate brownie desert which was thrown on the table my Karen which shocked all of us !!!!!!! We ordered icecream sundaes which were served in mini beer glasses on our table and then larger latte glasses on another. Overall disappointed visit and maybe change the the name to Karen's Diner then at least you what expect...

Our Family had the most beautiful fish lunch here it was very delicious we didn’t wait long for service, the host was very welcoming in greeting us. Only down fall was the waitress stretching over me an my food to collect a plate, she could have walked 4steps around. Good value and Would definitely recommend to others.

Sat in a comfortable booth, quite a busy evening. Served by Nikki who was very attentive and did not rush us. I had Calamari to start it was perfectly cooked and tasted great. The others had a variety of starters and all were delicious also. I had a ribeye for main and it was cooked to perfection, this is the second or third steak I have had at The Fallow Field and every time it has been cooked perfectly. In several other pubs within 5km the steak would have cost at least £10 more. The others had a variety of mains and they were equally good. I have no hesitation in recommending The Fallow Field for its good value, good quality food and great service.
