The Arleston Inn Hotel in Telford and Wrekin

We went for Sunday Lunch today it was very disappointing as the beef was already cut in chunks and was very dry and tough found it so hard to eat and roast potatoes not cooked properly and veg cold we only tried there as read good reviews certaiinly wont be going again

Friendly welcoming staff, nice atmosphere, carvery hot and fresh, however could've done with more slices of meat. I think swapping the gravy and sauces table with the soup table would be better locations. Gluten free gravy was catered for however should have at least one GF dessert option other than just ice cream.

Had a fantastic carvery today. What a wonderful pub ran by a really friendly family, was so nice to be greeted by a smile upon walking in. Was seated by the daughter of the lady behind the bar who herself is lovely and welcoming.. Keep up the great work

This place was recommended by a friend. We Managed to book in earlier for the Sunday Carvery and I am very happy that we took the short journey to this beautiful establishment in what felt like the middle of the countryside. A great experience from start to finish, calm atmosphere, friendly and helpful staff, amazing food with a wide variety of choice on the Carvery and a decent pint to go with it.

A fab little gem hidden down Arleston Lane. Went for a lovely Sunday carvery with friends and we were not disappointed! Beautiful home-cooked food, reasonably priced and great quality. The pub has a warm, welcoming atmosphere bolstered by the team. Would highly recommend!

Amazing food served by a team of amazing people who served us with a smile on their faces.

Took advantage of the 15% off food through the Facebook page, an amazing warm welcome from all the staff, very friendly and welcoming, as you walk in the bar area is very characteristic to an old English pub with an amazing open fire. We sat and had drinks whilst waiting for friends to arrive, we were taken through to a spacious conservatory to our table, the service was exceptional, asking us about starters and recommendations. We chose to settle for just the carvery, the choice was delicious, Turkey, Gammon and Beef, all of which were good size portions and then Yorkshire and stuffing which I have to say was amazing as the Yorkshires were huge and homemade. There was a wide selection of veg, including cauliflower cheese, roasts and mash, and amazing thick gravy and every condiment you would expect. Would highly recommend to anyone for a family get together or just a meal with friends or just as a couple, friendly warm atmosphere for any occasion, will definitely visit again soon - thank you

My local club held a Christmas party here in the function room and the buffet was amazing lots of different foods and all dietary requirements where catered for, the staff are very accommodating and friendly

Sunday dinner was absolutely amazing, tasted so good. Service and atmosphere was fabulous. A special mention to the cauliflower cheese can’t stop thinking about it!!!!

Excellent tasty, fresh carvery. It was really good value and great service! Would highly recommend and will be back soon ..

Service was amazing from start to finish & the food was spot on. Such a beautiful pub and a lovely welcoming atmosphere:)

The carvery meal was very good. Staff were helpful and polite,will be back, Thankyou.

Such an amazing pub and lovely staff. We always enjoy coming here whatever time or day we pop in and now today we have had the carvery. Wow. So delicious. Never enjoyed a carvery so much. Usually only like my other half's roast dinner but this was so good! Blows Toby carvery out the water. The meat, the vegetables and Yorkshire puddings and gorgeous gravy and stuffing too. Cannot recommend enough. We can’t wait to come back for more!! Outstanding.

Great little pub with nice rooms. Currently undergoing a full restoration but the carvery is beautiful.

Great pub not to far from Telford central, had a fantastic Sunday lunch, lovely friendly bar staff and waitress, amazing lunch will definitely be going back.

Amazing food and really nice welcoming staff really enjoyed the service recommend highly to anyone in the area

Lovely pub great location, had a fabulous Sunday lunch, staff were very friendly excellent service will be back for sure

New owners were fab! Sunday dinner was great!

Good night 3rd generation was playing amazing night amazing place good staff. Was doing security all good people thanks all. See u all soon. Thanks Megan keep up good work

Very tasty Sunday lunch, well worth the money, nicely presented and staff were very friendly- will definitely be returning!!

Welcome to our new and old customers. Honesty is the best way we can be right now, myself and my colleague took over as managers over a week ago, We have met many challenges and overcome many hurdles. We are in the middle of a relaunch and a new menu, luckily enough we have a great team and good support from our customers, Unfortunately Last Sunday we were let down by a chef it caused a problem with our Father's Day lunch, we sincerely apologise to the customers that it effected, however things happen for a reason we now have a fantastic chef join our team and our menu relaunch will be next week watch this space for an update! Lots of exciting things to come, garden renovations underway, great food, with a fantastic family atmosphere in a happy restaurant ready to invite you to come and see us, thank you for your support.

I believe this is under new management, the food was disgusting, there was only a choice of 2 starters melon or prawn cocktail, we chose the prawn, served on a dinner plate a piece of luttuce leaf with it just dolloped in the middle, we should have walked out there but persevering with the main sunday roast was a big mistake, frozen carrots,1 tiny burnt yorkshire pud,1 piece of black parsnip,cold fat sodden roast potato, gravey like water, 1 big inch chunk of meat, very small meals,definitely not adult portions, luke warm food, the restaurant looks like a like a cheap cafe ,and the view into the rubbish filled garden and old caravans is a treat, how much does it cost for fresh veg ? none of us ate it, I will never go back there, this used to be such a lovely place and we all were looking forward to it , ruined our fathers day.

Great pub, lovely drink and curry, friendly owner and manager.

Excellent Indian food, ate in as a party of 4 and everyone thoroughly enjoyed their meals. Really friendly service. Decor still needs work, but it's clearly in the process of being refurbished. Looking forward to seeing how it turns out!

Had a lovely meal the food is to die for and really generous portions and not overly priced the landlord and locals are friendly and welcoming. Would highly recommend a visit 👌 😀

Perfect choice 👍 The staffs are really nice and friendly and this place is very calm and beautiful.feels like back to family..❣️

Looks a lot better than the dump it were when Kev and Merle had it

Now that we are out of lock down, you have to visit this little gem in Telford. This is a lovely hotel located just a 1.5 miles out of Telford centre. The owners are very hospitable and go above and beyond to make your stay as comfortable and enjoyable as possible which is something that is missing from the larger chain hotels. The rooms are very comfortable and getting a good night's sleep is very easy - as soon as my head hit the pillows, I was out like a light!!!! The restaurant is very good indeed which offers a diverse range of meals for all tastes. The bar serves all of the popular beers and some craft beers which I need to return to sample! Overall, this was a great 5 nights i stayed at the Arleston Inn and I wish the owners every success with this hotel. It won't be long before I return. See you soon. Thankyou.

Doesn't look like the picture Indian restaurant got wrong hotel thankfully

Really good food great atmosphere well worth a visit lovely owners 😀

We visited in December for the first time for a family meal. Food was Delicious and fresh also reasonably priced Indian food. Management are professional and staff very attentative Land lady jayda is absolutely stunning! We will be back in due course when everything re opens x

Food is sub standard, certainly not Indian cuisine may be if you have had covid and your taste buds aren't working or you're not used to actual Indian cuisine then it may pass but even then I doubt it Very disappointing evening out, the food was NOT as described it was served almost cold and customer service lacked, the atmosphere was mediocre the staff are certainly not professional and clientele questionable. Will not be returning and certainly do NOT recommend, only to my enemies.

Nice coffee lovely sausage and egg butty,think we will have to go to the restaurant when it re opens

Really cosy run by a lovely couple and food is delicious

I had a takeaway curry from here, well I wouldn't call it a curry. It was meat of some sort in an awful sauce not tikka or any you would recognise it didn't even taste Indian and I know I've got Indian relatives and I've...

Best Carvery around and cheap too. Ala carte menu good also great variety with vegetarian option also has daily specials board. Bit out of the way as not many people know its down a lane. Try it you will be impressed with great hosts Kevin &Merle. Now changed hands as Kevin and Merle have retired now offering Iandian Cuisine run by Jat on a Friday,Saturday and all day Sunday give it a try still full of the locals

Visited for the first time couldn’t be more impressed with the new management lovely atmosphere! Lovely family atmosphere thank you Jat.

Always a fantastic atmosphere and the food is great. Feel welcome everytime we go. Thank you Merle and Kev.

The pub has lots of charm. The staff are very friendly and funny. It's a shame that the pub has just been sold as the owners create a great atmosphere. The food was excellent and the portions were large. The price was very low. Great...

Very friendly great atmosphere.

Food was beautiful people very helpful and friendly we had a brilliant time will definitely be back again soon 🍽🥂

An oldy world charming pub. As much as its a very traditional pub it is looking a bit tired. Seems to cater for the older generation but there is a TV for sports in the main bar.

Just took my Mum there for Mothers day and the food was fantastic. I need to find out how Merle cooks the beef and turkey so nicely!!! Absolutely succulent!!!!!!

People and Food is excellent cannot fault it. Recommended to everyone.

Myself and my husband visited the Arleston Inn for Sunday lunch. The staff were very friendly and welcoming. Really nice and warm environment for a cold winters day. The food was home cooked and very delicious. The bar service was great too. You can have...

Lovely traditional pub and great food

Lovely traditional pub, cosy friendly atmosphere with lovely and welcoming hosts, and have been here quite a few times for a meal which has always been excellent and at very reasonable prices.... Well recommend this place for both a meal or just a drink.

Excellent service, excellent food. Always worth a visit

Lovely food.... lovely people...

Lovely atmosphere and food great...prices good

Proper home cooked food, served by the friendly land lady and land lord. Steaks cooked to perfection. Really good value for money. Warning come hungry!

We all had lovely meals freshly cooked to order. First class .

Fantastic atmosphere and the food is amazing

From the outside pub looks tired and walking down slope into bar worrying what we'd let ourselves in for. Landlord/Barman very welcoming and friendly. Menu good selection and had daily specials. Guy who was eating food was staying there said food was good. Chef came and took our orders making sure we knew all options. Food was excellent. Will be going again 👌👌👌👌

Great food and very friendly people , what a great find so close to home .

Excellent food and wonderful hosts. Highly recommended

After reading what I hope are genuine reviews on the Arlestone Inn Hotel we decided to walk the 2 miles to the pub for a meal. We arrived about 7pm and had a drink. Around 7:30 pm we ordered our second round of drinks and...

The friendly atmosphere of this Pub is quite unbelievable and you have to visit this place to appreciate that. The food is first class in freshness and quantity, it also has what larger establishments lack and that`s personal friendly service.

Fab food good price. Landlord and Landlady very welcoming

Lovely place great food great staff

Really nice food. Lovely atmosphere and very welcoming

The location is lovely. The food was some of the best I've experienced from a pub meal and very reasonably priced considering the quality. I would highly recommend it to anyone.

Very lovely owners who run the busines. Cosy rooms and comfy beds. Great food etc totally recommend and would stay again

Have not been here for over 12 months due to illness but upon walking in was greeted by name by both landlady and landlord , what a nice welcome. The food was plentiful and of the highest quality and the service was of the best...

Very happy friendly place. Food delicious, especially the steaks.

Always great service from Merle and Kevin.. smiles and laff all round, and very tasty food indeed.. superb value!!

Landlord is really friendly, drinks are reasonably priced. Generally a nice pub

This is just the best B and B I have stayed in and I have stayed in loads with work. The Arleston Inn may not be the Ritz but what it lacks in finesse it more than makes for it in charm and character. The...

Wonderful meals. Friendly locals and staff.

Good food with friendly atmosphere..excellent..very homely

My boyfriend and I stayed at the Arleston Inn for 3 nights while in Telford for a convention. Overall we had a pleasant experience but there were a few bumps throughout the stay, so I thought I'd write up a pro/con list for anyone who might be looking at staying here for a few nights! Pros: * Super friendly and lovely owners. They were so relaxed and accommodating; they made us feel very welcomed. * Lovely location away from the town, entering into the countryside. Quiet and surrounded by nature. * Nice full English breakfast. * Right above a pub, so if you want you can go hang out and eat downstairs without needing to go find somewhere in town, like you might with a different hotel. * Very affordable prices. * Cute room with a really comfortable bed. Felt like sleeping on a cloud! Cons: * The room and shower were quite small, which didn't bother us too much but if you prefer your space that's something to keep in mind. * The TV is small and old-fashioned, so it makes this really stressful ringing noise. Some of the channels didn't seem to work either. We ended up not using the TV at all. * On the 1st night we got there, a party was going on in the pub downstairs. The owner told us right away which we really appreciated, but it was quite frustrating as we'd just done a 5 hour drive and were kind of hoping for an early night, especially since we had to get up early for our convention the next day. We had to wait until around midnight to go to sleep due to the sound. Granted, that was just 1 night; every night after was perfectly quiet. So it's just something worth keeping in mind! * The internet is very temperamental. Sometimes we could connect just fine and it'd load pages and run videos at a decent quality; other times it would just completely go or take forever to load. So we ended up relying on our phone data a lot. Hope this helps! Thank you for the stay. :)

Steaks are the best in shropshire so tender

Good food, well kept beer all very reasonably priced and an added bonus if you need overnight accommodation if you're from out of town but working in the area room rates are also very reasonable

Had a great stay here. Stayed over for friends party that was being held nearby. Kev and Merle treated me so well stayed an extra night. Asked to borrow an iron and Merle ironed the shirt for me need to jump start a car and...

Friendly local pub/restaurant with excellent food

Very friendly, female friendly, by which I mean ladies can go in on their own and not feel intimated. Cracking

Stopped overnight here for a family wedding reception. We were instantly made to feel welcome, food was excellent and the clean and comfortable. Mine hosts Merle and Kevin couldn't do enough for us I highly recommend stopping here you will be welcomed with open arms....

Sunday lunch is very good here. You can't beat the beef😊

Been going to the Arleston for quite a few years now on a regular bases. Merle and Kevin are wonderful hosts. If you want the best steaks in Shropshire, or anywhere else for that matter, then this is the place to go. Best to book/call...

As most Country pubs like being off the `beaten track`, so to speak, a visit to the Arleston Inn was a little hidden gem. Being greeted by "mine host" Trev and his wife Merle, was like encountering long lost friends. The warm friendly atmosphere of...

Well we had a really good dinner well cooked and well saved.a nice choice of starters the carvarery was the best but as I noticed that a lot of the customer were middle the elderly we thought the choice of sweets let you down.home made sweets would have gone down a treat.but we have been before a few times and will visit again very soon.

Good old fashioned pub, home cooked food, traditional menu.

Kevin and Merle were fantastic - nothing too much trouble and great service - very friendly - food great bed comfortable - budget hotel but well worth a visit - will be back when next in the Telford area - Keith

The best place to get your head down, experience great service and value for money

Been 4 suday lunch.all homemade cooking.friendly wellcome.many more happy days 2 come

Kevin and Merle are excellent hosts, nothing too much trouble. Food is amazing, I will not eat steak anywhere else as it's always a let down after the Arleston. Love it.

I tried this pub about 18 months ago and the food was ok, nothing special. The staff were ok. But didn't really feel welcome. I hope things have changed.

Fantastic hotel a must for anyone eho is looking for a small friendly hotel. Nothing was too muvh trouble for the owner's. Food was exvellent well cookef and presented. Will definitely be returning.
