Taverners Telford - The Severn Gorge in Telford and Wrekin - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Food was horrendous, the chips were cold and tasteless, the meat on the carvery was dry just like the Sahara dessert . My Friend had the turkey and the beef and there was no taste or anything and the roast potatoes were burnt. My other half had a plate of yorkshire puddings and they were all cold and full of grease. I personally tried one and I rubbed my fingers and I could see all the oil that was still on them. My partners Niece had Sausage, mash and peas: it looked like they rammed the plate full of peas and the mash looked like it had seen better days and the sausage was burnt and looked very inedible for a child to eat. I HIGHLY WOULD NOT RECOMMEND TO ANYONE!!! I saw people stand at the bar for a good five minutes, waiting to be served and for the que to be almost out the door while 1 person does the work and the other person just walks around aimlessly around the building. It doesn’t look good for the customers to see that happening.

Your typical pub grub establishment. They were a bit understaffed and had a large party arrived which had reserved. It would have been a 30 minute wait for food because of this but no issue, opted for the carvery instead. Huge portion and good value for money. Lou and Tim offered excellent customer service and very helpful

The food is not that good when I first started going to the servern gorge pub the carvery was nice then I don't no what they did but the food started to go down hill fast the veg was hard the Yorkshire pudding was so hard you could not even cook it that's why we stopped having a,carvery the rest of the food is not that good and for the service and that goes for any thing they cook is not as good as I always normally stick the the same food everytime it doesn't happen so when I first went to the servern gorge there was that many people in there it took a long time to get your dinner but no you don't even have to wait anymore as lots of people have stopped going to the servern gorge pub in Telford Town centre that is how I see it as gone straight down the pan

We all had a carvery family of 4 plus 2 year old , not good the roast potatoes were very dry and hard none of us could eat them even heard the next table complaining about them , carrots were very undercooked the stuffing wasn’t the best and Yorkshire puddings were dry and hard , used to love going for a carvery here but it’s gone way down to what it used to be

Had a beautiful carvery today. Sat in the Dog friendly area and treated our puppy to a doggy carvery. It was a great experience and will deffinatly do it again. Many thanks

Popped in after school and a quick run round the shops, kids wanted a carvery on this cold January Monday , served promptly at the bar and sent to the carvery . Greeted by the chef who gave us the choice of meats . Veg was nice and hot a all round tasty treat after school

Food is very good & extremely good value. The service is excellent, particularly from Lewis on the 18th December 23 who was very attentive & went above & beyond to be helpful & to make our lunch there a very pleasant experience. Thank you Lewis.

My husband had the cowboy burger which was dry and over cooked ,I had the carvery my favourite meal ! So disappointed it was Luke warm .The bar maid was cold ,didn’t even smile ,no welcoming Christmas feel …we felt like an inconvenience!

AVOID.... Breakfast with santa. 1 sausage. I bacon. Black...yes black scrambled rubber egg. Overcooked mushrooms bread that was supposed to be toast..called manager over and asked him to try the egg on my plate that had not been touched... he even admitted it looked vile...Full refund given ..never again .. AVOID AT ALL COSTS(NO WE DIDNT SEE SANTA AS HE WAS NOT ARRIVING FOR ANOTHER 2 HOURS)

This is the second year we have come here for family Christmas meal,every year I book for my sister's and niece's to have a night out and again we couldn't fault the service,we were well looked after by Tim,Kate and Lou,the food was amazing and they always look after my niece who is gluten free, thank you so much

Always enjoy coming here for food, the staff are always polite and Kate and Dan from the kitchen team were oromot and friendly. giving found us a table with no problem even though they were busy, always a pleasant visit.

We visited for Sunday lunch before going to the Market. It was a very cold day so a roast was great to warm us all up. The lady on host was delightful, despite us not booking she found us a table & the carver chef a friendly great chap. Not lived in the area long, it is great to have found a decent roast.

We came last minute but we got sat quickly by Kim, we were going for the roast but decided to try the festive burger on the menu. It came out quick and service on bar was prompt. Everyone very Friendly and welcoming, always great as local!

Excellent Food (As allways) served in a friendly atmosphere by Gavin. With thanks to Kate for all your hard work in the kitchen. Will be back soon.

Gavin and Aidan served us- really friendly and approachable. We ordered off the main menu - bbq chicken burgers, which were delicious. Credit to the chef, Kate. Thank you very much, we will definitely be back!

Went on a lazy day off from work, place was clean, staff was polite, food came within reasonable time, and the food was some of the nicest and freshest food me and my partner have had in Telford for a long time. We even took home cake. Thank you Elaine and Evan for a lovely quick meal out.

Great place: great staff. Kim has been good to us and Elaine and Aidan are really helpful. Always a pleasure, it's a good place for a good pint.

Lovely , tasty carvery food and generous quantity l bar service 3rd time around abot slow but tolerable . Kitchen satff were Tim and Kate. Very busy nice staff, Gavin was attentive .

We popped in on a Sunday afternoon (hadn’t pre booked) and Colin found us a table (it was incredibly busy so we were really quite lucky) Colin could not have more helpful to accommodate us. The food exceeded our expectations for a carvery on a busy Sunday. Tim the chef did an amazing job. The bar staff and all staff as a whole were super friendly and welcoming. You could not ask for anything more!

We have been using this pub for many years (20 odd) and until the last few years it was superb. We stopped going about 3 years ago as it went downhill. Recently we thought we would give it another go as we heard there were new managers in. We have been 5 times recently and enjoyed it although the carvery food doesn’t look very appetising as the meat looks frazzled, veg looks dried up etc. We decided to go yesterday and the carvery food looked the same however, we continued with our meal. Well, we were so disappointed! We had to ask for 2 sauces as they had run out. When we actually got to eat our food the roast potatoes tasted stale as if they had been standing for hours, the mash was nice but just warm, peas and carrots were cold, meat was cold and gravy was warm. Just a suggestion, we go to another pub that serves a carvery and they always cover their meats, veg etc with foil when they aren’t busy, maybe you could give this a go? Their meat and veg always look nice and not dried up.

i have visited many times and left glowing reviews but today the treatment myself and my partner received has made me never want to go again. We decided to pop in after a busy day and grab a carvery let me state that nowhere outside, inside or online does it state reservations only nor was their anyone at the entrance asking if we had reservations so we did as we usually do and find a table close as possible to the entrance as I am disabled and find walking to far enormously difficult. we went in found a table and my partner went to order the carvery and drinks. My partner returned the went to get my carvery as I'm unable to do it myself then went to get his own both times having to queue. As I started my food a lady came and asked if we had reserved I said no we hadn't and then said well on Sundays it's MOSTLY reservations not walk ins and they needed the table soon so eat up fast. She returned again to say there were no other tables they could move us to so again we needed to eat fast. She then returned and said they needed that table and that we could sit at the bar to eat I said id be unable to because of my disability I can't do that she shrugged and said well we need the table. I was embarrassed so asked if we could take it away she returned with a cake takeaway box but only one and when my partner asked for one for his food was snapped at that he'd have to wait. People around us said they thought she was very rude to us. My partner spent £35.18 to be humiliated and sent away with our carvery shoved in a box after twenty minutes. More staff training is needed on how to deal with customers especially as I presume the lady was a manager and inclusion for all abilities as well. disappointed as we've always chosen the gorge as our place to go to

I haven't been here in a long time due to poor standards and experience in the past. However, my son asked to go here so I took a chance.... We was very pleased with the food and service. 3 carveries and a lasagne. Plus desserts. There was a minor issue with the Yorkshire puddings due to being too hard from being under the hot light. However, this was soon rectified. The chef was pleasant and brought over some fresh ones without any qualms. The lasagne was very tasty. Will definitely be returning. 😊

Great service Meal was plentiful and very hot Would highly recommend for a quick and easy Sunday lunch. Pigs in blankets for an r tea £1.95 was a little steep as you only get 3 !!!

Was sat swiftly by polite smiley staff Tim and Kate served us among others and attended to us very attentively the food was amazing and the atmosphere to go with it would recommend to others at it is a lovely place to dine

Staff very attentive and putting customers first. Elaine was very pleasant also Tim great smile and attentive with Kate very attentive and smiley nothing was too much for us

Staff were really friendly upon arrival as well as kitchen staff. Nice meal with a good choice of veg. Would recommend it to family and friends.

Our experience was excellent, a big shout out to the kitchen staff tim and ben and bar staff, Gavin was a excellent host, we will definitely recommend to my friends and family, we look forward to coming back, they also accommodated for our request which was wonderful, thankyou for being a excellent team keep up the good work.
