Lovely location but average experience. There’s definitely better pubs in the area. Externally it looks beautiful but inside it’s lacking character. We chose not to eat here

We stopped off for lunch after a walk along the canal, the bacon & Brie sandwich was very good and tasty. It’s perfect after a walk with the car parking close by

We enjoyed a nice lunch in the beer garden overlooking the canal. Excellent service, pleasant staff and good food. The pub is excellently situated for a walk along the aqueduct.

Not able to order food as the chief can’t cope, and it’s only 3:15 on Sunday afternoon, I suggest you employ extra staff or someone who can carry out a chiefs role . Also a good clean would be a great idea, judging by the state of the carpets .

Great food and they met the test of a pie being a proper pie and not just a top. Prawn sandwich was tasty too. Lovely place to sit outside and look at the canal, service was excellent.

Food was mediocre curry tasted like it was from a jar,sunday dinner was good ,waiting staff brilliant ,had to queue at the bar for ages 1 person on the bar,like I say meal was mediocre ,but what was a put off when the chef came outside and showered in front of house with a hose pipe.Must of thought he was David hasselhoff or something ,did make my stomach churn a bit , the locals said he does all the time around 5pm

Called after going on boat trip across the aquaduct, seen the sign for famous steak pie. Definitely decided to give it a try and have to say the other positive reviews were correct, it's outstanding with big pieces of tender steak and gravy. Other person had the burger and that to was huge size , and the peppercorn chicken with rice . Overall very friendly staff and helpful and food outstanding very impressed

Rang (twice) to see if we needed to reserve a table for a Sunday and if dogs were ok, advised it was walk-ins only on a Sunday (dogs are permitted). Arrived to find out that they don't do Sunday Lunch on a Sunday despite it being on the menu, and that the chef may not be able to cook all our orders at the same time. Food not rated as we did not stop.

Came with a group of friends to have one final meal before we headed home. Food was really good, tried the home made beef pie and swapped it with mash. Best beef pie I've had in a long time, gravy was amazing. Portion size was so generous and I left very satisfied. Great way to end a bank Holiday.

We mored overnight in Trevor and thought we would try dinner here. Wow, highlight of our holiday so much that we returned for dinner on our way back. Even our dog had dinner & ice-cream. The friendly service , welcoming and fabulous food was a breath of fresh air. ( our previous night we had long waits and terrible service an disappointing food) The Telford Inn is how it should be done. All the food we had was at the highest level. A must try is the Pearl las mushrooms and the steak pie snd syrup sponge. 6 in our group and we all had something different in 2 visits and all was amazing. Good portions, arrived within 15 minutes and service was perfect.

Our first visit, and hopefully not our last. I should begin with worst part, which is that this wonderful old building has seen better days. It is a little run down, to say the least, but not surprising as the running costs must be huge. That said, I enjoyed one of the best steak pie meals that I have ever had. Top and bottom short crust pastry and packed with lean, well cooked steak chunks... I highly recommend that, if pie is your thing. I'll also add that the staff were friendly and attentive and the cost didn't break the bank.

A pub that takes its location and history for granted. If it wasn’t for the prime placement of this pub by the aqueduct it would struggle for business. The service me and my grandparents received was really poor. Was told to wait 2 mins to be served while the barmaid stood there doing absolutely diddly. She would then discover ,once she had decided to serve me the line had to be changed. While taking two other pints outside I was told the line had been fixed and she could finally pour my pint. When I came back she then decided to serve other customers. Once again I had to wait. Note: Two Shandies and a Lager was £15 I wpuld recommend this pub to anyone who likes being disappointed. The excitement I felt seeing this pub after coming off the aqueduct was truly unmatched. And the disappointment was even greater.

First visit to the Telford Inn. Sat outside on table 15, looking at the boats and boys fishing. The food came quickly, and it was well presented. Portions were large, but everyone managed to finish them. The home made pie was definitely the best I've had, in a long time. All meals piping hot. Will definitely call again and also recommend. Well done to all the staff.

Location on the side of the canal is fabulous you can watch the world go by.. the food is of excellent quality also. If you eat or drink then you can park there free. Because it's right next to the canal you can walk over the bridge and head towards the aqueduct.

We couldn’t have been made to feel more welcome. The food was great with a wide menu choice and because the weather for June wasn’t the warmest, we were welcomed into a room where our tired, reactive dog could be left alone to chill. She also enjoyed her doggy dinner of sausage, rice and veg. The burgers are very filling and the Welsh madras curry had a nice kick to it. Plenty of outside and inside space to make yourself comfortable in, all on top of the Pontcysyllte world heritage site. Definitely worth a visit and a pint with lunch! Thank you to the staff at the Telford.

I don’t usually like leaving a bad review anywhere but when the food is so poor I have no choice unfortunately, the pub had run out of Sunday dinners which is fair enough as it was quite busy, So we chose something else from the menu I west for a bacon cheeseburger and chips and I can honestly say it’s the worst burger I have eaten must of had no more than 50 -60% meat content it was like mush, the chips were frozen chips which is fair enough as it’s a busy place but they wasn’t very nice, my wife had fish, chips and mushy peas the fish was a frozen battered mushy piece of fish that you can get at a local supermarket sodden in grease which for 15.95 it just doesn’t cut it unfortunately, very substandard produce for the prices charged which is a shame as the bar staff were really great although one of the servers did pour my chips all over the table by accident which was quickly rectified and she got me a new portion of soggy frozen chips. The location is stunning and with the correct guidance and produce could be a really great asset to the local community

Off season (May 2024) the Telford is quiet and looks like it's gearing up for high season busyness but the beer was good and the signature Telford steak pie with veg, chips & gravy, was excellent! A proper shortcrust pie, steaming hot & just what we needed for the 4.25 mile return trip to Llangollen (the aqueduct and canal are well worth the visit too!)

Visited the Telford last night with my friend for a couple of drinks while sitting on the chair my jumper felt like it was catching, anyway got home and noticed that my jumper has been pulled it is now ruined. And it was new,only wore it twice I called the manager Megan, and told her what had happened and I had took a picture . She accused me of making it up her words. I don't appreciate being called a liar so if you visit the Telford don't go wearing your best clothes as you will get accused of lying from the Manager, Megan . Disgusting attidude rude and accusing towards a paying customer

The Telford is one of those pubs from another age, which are hard to find nowadays ,Sarah has done a tremendous job of providing great pub food at reasonable prices, these trendy pubs should take note. The steak pie alone should be awarded world heritage status as she explained the cooking process to me. An awful lot of work goes into the preparation of the fare and I would not hesitate to revisit. Best wishes to Sarah and to her staff.

Nice place to sit after a walk along the canal however had no real ale (ran out) no cider on tap (didn't have it) so ended up getting something else I didn't really want as I was in a queue. Didn't appear very clean in the bar area. The outside seemed run down too. Two pints of fosters and a coke £12.80, a bit steep considering. Doubt we'll return which is a shame as it has the potential to be a really nice pub if some money was spent on paint etc.

First time here and it was a truly enjoyable experience and visit. The building itself is turn-of- C18 Georgian and probably listed and not bad as a house for the Telford's supervising engineer of the canal, wow! The views of the canal, Trevor Basin, the canal boats and the Welsh hills in the background are to die for! Telford Inn is cosy and comfortable, outdoor seating and although we didn't have a meal, the menu looked great. And most importantly, it's a Freehouse. The staff were very friendly, welcoming and amazing and a big thank you to Leila and Meghan. Well done and definitely will be back. Recommend a visit to this wonderful, historic pub restaurant as you won't be disappointed!

Tatty, and outdated pub run under poor standards. It’s a great location and a shame it’s not under professional management. The smell when you walk in, dirty carpets, wine limited to small Stowells bottles says it all! Not a clue! Menu is like something from the 1980’s and when you see the cook, when he pops out you’d say ‘wow how clean is that kitchen?’. Exterior the benches are generally ok but not maintained, one we sat on and the whole seat was rotten and dangerous .but owners like this never invest anything. If you’re ok with average food and like some good beers then fine. But as my standards are higher this one is a miss.

This pub is no longer an Indian Restaurant/ Pub It has been taken over by a very reputable company and is being run brilliantly by Nancy Jones and her under manager Gemma. Mike has been kept on because of his excellent input. The pub has been rejuvenated since the new regime , and now is a truly Community pub. I have been regularly using this pub for 52 years and have not seen it this good since the days of the Moores and Bob and Sue. Good luck to the new management and roll on when the kitchen re-opens even if it’s only for bar snacks.

Don’t we all love a spoons? Had a lot of good times in the north and south bank spent with friends. Very good value and the food is surprisingly nice. Sometimes the queue can be edging on the ludicrous on a Saturday night but that’s the same with everywhere. The only real downside is that it isn’t open 24/7!
