The Thomas Botfield in Telford and Wrekin

Good breakfast at an affordable price. Carpark just outside.

I appreciate that the food can be a bit hit or miss. But the steak I had, which was meant to be med-rare could have been confused with an old boot. The steak knife struggled to saw through it. The only reason the rating maintained 2 stars is because the service staff were friendly and by current spoons standards, pretty quick.

Came into Wetherspoons Thomas Botfield Telford , at 10.33, ordered a breakfast with extra sausage, waited an Hour , after going up to the bar to complain & being told it’s next to be cooked,, at 35 mins still took another 25 mins, the pub looks empty, I was not told of this delay when ordering, Terrible Service , It used to be a quick service here but lately it’s gone downhill ,

It's a Weatherspoons so does what it says on the tin. Adequate and clientele not too radgy.

I can't miss going to The Thomas Botfield every time I go to Telford.

Can get very busy but as long as you find a table the service is good. Food is good too, I've never had a bad meal in there

Nice place good service friendly staff the food here is always hot and well cooked . Much better than then Bridgnorth

Popped in for a quick meal before going to the cinema. It was very busy so the wait for food was slightly longer than usual.

Had a decent visit here – we popped in for both dinner and breakfast, and it met our expectations on both counts. Good value and typical Wetherspoon standards. The staff were friendly and helpful, which made the experience smoother. Nothing fancy, but it did the job nicely.

Most burnt burger I've ever had. Absolutely shocking. Thats only my food though. Everyone else's was ok apparently.

We had a really good breakfast, tasty hot food. Friendly staff and food delivered quickly. Used the app which is easy to use.

We had a good time there , the service was excellent, I would recommend it no probs 👍

It's a 'Spoons. Good service, good cheap food, good cheap beers and ciders.

No guinness that was shocking 😳

As spoons go, it was decent. It is one of the cheap ones, £3.89 for a pint of wife beater, can't go wrong.

Great afternoon at Wetherspoons on Wobbily Wednesday. Drinks, food and good fun. Particularly like to thank Roisin. Brilliantly handled a situation with good manners and kindness. Thanks. Bob and Julie x

Only been here once but has a good write up in paper etc

Always a Sunday large breakfast. Place is good clean and service is quick.

The Thomas Botfield In Telford Town Centre Behind the Shopping centre is a lovely weatherspoons location plenty of outdoor seating reasonable prices plenty of space in the toilet areas suitable for families and any other special occasion will be returning A* Service Thank you

Typical spoons cheap cheerful and great for people watching. My local been there countless times never been disappointed

it's always good, staff are great food is good for the money. And the beer is spot on

Considering around 100 of my colleges descended on the pub on a Tuesday evening, they all took it in their stride and were fantastic.

Clean, tidy, great service and lovely food. The English breakfast is very good value

pretty much the only place anywhere in this town goes out to drink. it's a decent spoons. the bathrooms arent on a giant staircase which is remarkable

Cheap and cheerful, but can't complain. You know what you're getting at a Wetherspoons

This was a fantastic pub for drinking, with a bright and modern design as expected in Telford! The separators above the seating have a unique style to them and Christmas decorations were pretty, ornaments add a nice feel themselves. Counter is well-presented and manned by friendly staff, a whole load of seating is available here too! I had a chocolate orange cocktail appreciating the leather seating, table had been well kept as well.

Accessible entrance, great selection on the menu, tables can be a little slow to be cleared at busy times. Unlike many Wetherspoons the w/c's are on the ground floor, including disabled toilet.

I love a Wetherspoons. Cheap and cheerful! The Thomas Botfield is a smaller Wetherspoons but lovely and vibrant. They had no Sauvignon Blanc left which I love in there so I tried the Pinot Grigio which was very pleasant. Bar staff were friendly, you can park outside and no ten mile hike to get to the loo.

Staff were very friendly and very good service

Came in for a quick one after a long day. The in house fighting was awful and the atmosphere was high tension as the drunks readied themselves for the next punch up. Really should stop serving people who are unsteady on their feet at 6.30 in the evening. Drank up and went elsewhere.

Food lovely and staff friendly One problem customers using door to go outside to smoke and leaving it open it was a very cold day

Visited weatherspoons on mon, 27th, Jan 2025. Table service really excellent. Steak meal tough, chips overcooked, onion rings tasteless. Apple crumble and ice cream, excellent. Pinot grigio, unpalatable, and undrinkable. Table cleaning service, awful, moved all empty plates onto nearby Table, as staff seemed not to think it was needed. Observed that once main diners left, remaining staff thought it ok, to stand mid floor chatting.

Avoid the male manager on shift is rude my bacon was raw not worth a visit

Staff are great, friendly and service with a smile 👍

Another great wetherspoons. Well laid out but cosy. A great wetherspoons menu. Good food great value for money. We used it this time as a breakfast stop two teas perfect eggs benidict and a more than ample amercan breakfast sublime. Staff are jolly amd friendly

Went here on Saturday, despite it being very busy the food came out very quickly after ordering using table service. £18 for two mains and a drink, great value.

Went for breakfast lovelly food service great atmosphere brilliant will definately go again

Average wetherspoons ... nothing special

Had a good breakfast for a cracking price.

Typical Spoons, you get what you pay for. Could have a better range of beers, but that seems to be all Spoons nowadays. Abbot, Riddles, Doombar ..yawn...

Visited botfield, Telford, Sunday evening (05/01) to have a quiet drink to celebrate my eightieth birthday. The whole evening was spoilt by a table of 30 who were noisy throughout, even singing. My son complained to one of the bar staff with no effect. The Duty Manager appeared not to be in control, ignoring the problem whilst delivering copious drinks to their table. On previous visits, others have been banned for far less, or asked to leave.

Always busy cheap and cheerful, disappointed this time around 3 coffee cups handed back very dirty size of breakfast both large and standard have portions reduced and coffee which I usually enjoy very week

Decent food could of been better but was busy

Lovely food.Staff friendly and go above and beyond to make your visit enjoyable.

ABSOLUTELY APPALLING EXPERIENCE. A family member and I went into this dump for a Xmas drink and meal, my meal was burnt in parts but thought I may as well eat what I could, I didn't finish it and complained to the staff whom treated with utter contempt! even accusing me of being a liar! (they've accused the wrong person). I might add the 'manager' swore at me too, totally unacceptable conduct, and I will put this matter in a formal complaint to the head office. It is true in that some Wetherspoons pubs are better than others but I have never been so badly treated as I was in The Thomas Botfield - just a disgusting place and an overhaul of staff should root out the bad from the good.

Go here quite a lot came here today for lunch with a friend was very busy managed to get a table ordered food and drink was pleased how quick the food came

Tight spaces between tables with no good walkway for people to make their way to and from the table, also stood for a long time in front of 3 bar staff to be completely ignored when the bar person asked who was next went to someone behind me. She then had a go at me because she thought I was being served. Obviously the bar persons fault, she did take my order, but then rolled her eyes the who process and muttered some rude obscenity towards me to the customer behind me. Customer service failing. The server brought out the food, it was lovely, and the server was pleasant. That's why the review gets a 3 star.

Went for lunch with family. I decided to have the turkey dinner from the Christmas menu. When it came the mash was dried up on top, some of the turkey slices were very dry , no cranberry sauce, gravy congealed and not much of it. Looked as if the dinner had been plated earlier in the morning. On the way out I did pass someone else having the turkey dinner which looked far fresher than the one I was served.

Welcoming atmosphere with real log fire.

Typical British pub. Cheap and cheerful.

Lovely pub .nice interior and staff very reasonable prices. I was only there with work colleagues for drinks but we had a grate time.

A well established Spoons ....usual good standard of cleanliness and tables cleared promptly...no more to add

Lovely clean environment, the staff were great

Standard spoons . You know what your gonna get

Great value and wide range of drinks and wine

Came here for a few drinks late afternoon lovely place clean and tidy staff all kind and pleasant and didn't have to wait long for our drinks as we did table order

My friends and I visited JD Wetherspoon around 7 PM to celebrate a birthday, and we were very impressed. The atmosphere was serene and inviting, truly the perfect place for a special occasion. In my experience, restaurants in the Telford area sometimes struggle to maintain high food quality during peak hours, but this was not the case here. Every dish was cooked to perfection, exceeding our expectations. It was a delightful experience that we would highly recommend to others.

Over priced, low quality, not enough chips, service was slow.

Great place for early morning breakfast

Recently visited for large English breakfast. Very fast service. Unlimited coffee refills. Friend had a vegan breakfast. Would have been nice if there was a large option of this too. Only alternative was to add on extra items.

A busy morning for breakfast, but the speed of service, and hot food, was wonderful

Onwards of the nicer of the chain of pubs.

Nice and affordable place to hangout

Dated, cheap quality drinks, toilets packed with a gang making access awkward and making other guests nervous. Overall not a place I would recommend.

Great prices. Fast food delivery time even though it was very busy. Great staff

"Manager" & staff attitudes are beyond appaling. Food, also appaling. Don't complain - you will be met with customer service bereft attitude and absolutely no genuine apology. While complaining about the rock hard microwaved chicken burger, that could have acted as a test cricket ball, I was told it is "microwaved...and??"... because the world is filled with advice on how you should most definitely microwave a chicken bresst for the best burger and then charge people for the privilege of such an amazing burger! Also, while complaining, pointlessly, heard another member of staff talking about how someone had dropped 6 needles in the pub. Disgusting, unsafe, embaressment to the brand. Should be shut down ASAP.

They have some nice guest ales on here and food is reasonably priced to

Ordered on the app very fast food service and friendly staff

Nice friendly staff,been using the place since it opened

Fast service, friendly staff, hot and delicious food.

Great pub. Shame about the parking. Paid at the machine and got a ticket from the camera. Wouldn’t come again due to the fine I had for parking. Shame really

There was shit all over the floor, staff members using slurs in the staff area, terrible.

Food is your standardised Wetherspoons food, always comes out hot, never under or overcooked, an average wait of 10-15 minutes for food. Easy to order on the app or at the bar. Plenty of bargains to be had on each day of the week. The toilets are on the same floor and not hard to locate, so not quite your usual 5 mile trek to the loo. This pub caters for all tastes and used to be the starting point for most bar crawls before big nights out but as the closest bars are now at Southwater across the road/via town centre, it leaves Wetherspoons to deal with it's usual suspects.... Friends catching up for unlimited hot drinks, older gents who like the company of a few beers alone or with an old drinking pal, family gatherings for a cheeky cheap meal, etc. Definitely not as fancy as what is on offer at Southwater, so it's a no go for major celebrations or first dates. It's relatively quiet, the TVs are on constantly and there are a few fruit machines dotted around. There is a raised eating area, accessible by a ramp, an outdoor dining area split between smoking and non smoking areas.

Hubby + i went in for breakfast. It was very easy to order on the app , the breakfasts came out really quick + were delicious.the only downside was there was a guy working there hammering + banging

Rude staff, spoke to my husband like dirt after our wobbly table causec our drinks to fall over...horrible place to go. NEVER again

You know I love a vibrant English pub especially on an early Sunday morning. The raucous clink of plates and the energetic conversations. Cheap and cheerful. The atmosphere still clings to an age of cigarette smoke and the carnival thrills of the one armed bandits beckon the wishful thinkers. With an extensive menu that takes 2 coffees to work through the choice is inevitably a try-hard celebration to the working mans appetite. The breakfasts just like mum used to make and a relief to the sadistic economic depression. Wonderfully cheap, delightfully packed, deliciously prepared, although at times may have lingered a little too long under the heat lamps. A must for the kids is the succulent small fish and chips which I are well worth pilfering when a suitable distraction falls in place. The all you can drink tea and coffee encourages sentimental conversations of a time when politically correct was nothing more than a punchline. I write this in the hope that this precious sanctuary to a by-gone age is left alone and as well-preserved as the generous eagerness of the youthful service.

Nicely appointed interior, there's an outdoor no-smoking area. Pity the staff (and parents!)allow children to run around noisily, particularly as there are many customers and staff moving around with drinks and plates of hot food.

Dropped on a busy time but still served in good time , food was Wetherspoons high standard

Great service from the staff. Very helpful and good prices

Had large breakfast and it was served on a cold plate so baked beans went cold, eggs went cold bacon went cold the only thing that stayed hot was the sausage ,one person on our table of 4 whom received his breakfast 1st complained about eggs being cold and had them replaced so you'd have thought the lesson could have been learnt but no

Had two meals here now since working in Telford. Both breakfasts. Now I gave it the benefit of the doubt 1st time around. As it was busy. Today I had poached eggs on toast and mushrooms. And it was stone cold. Now how does eggs on toast come out cold. Mushrooms was watery from going cold. Service none existent. No how was your food. Everything OK with your food Client be bothered won't be eating here again

Weather spoons is a great place to come and chill my server Danny was so polite and helped with my every whim highly recommend.

Good food lovely staff and good prices definitely recommended 👌

Quiet and out of the way so you can relax with ease. Staff friendly and attentive no matter what the time of day

Popped in for a drink 🍻unbelievable prices🤯#cheapas 🤯🍻💯 Great experience 👍🏻 Will be using again 🍻 See you soon 😊

We love going there food lovely and not expensive

Another lovely visit and meal and Chloe was very helpful and efficient.

Same has all spoons Cheap drinks sticky tables

Busy, friendly, clean. No long waits and food hot and nicely presented.

Great menu, nice food and reasonable prices. Busy atmosphere but didn't wait too long

Delicious food (English breakfast) and perfect tea with milk. I recommend.

Good value for money good service. Great table service

This is one of the best Wetherspoons that I have been to, I wasn't expecting much but could not fault the food, drink or service. We ordered a pizza and fish and chips, both were excellent quality and cooked perfectly. If only all Wetherspoons were this standard. We also went on a Saturday night, the pub was really busy but the service was fast and efficient. Highly recommended.

Not the best spoons grub ever, nice inside and staff lovely

Nice place, food was good, staff were friendly. Thanks

£22 meals for me and my wife turned into £82 for 2 meals because I got a parking fine, even though I paid for it with coins at the machine. A shame that Telford town council let this scam company operate over here. Avoid this car park at all costs otherwise it will cost you big time whether you pay or not.

We had a lady serve us (red hair, tattoos) and she was extremely rude and horrible to us. Worst of all ,she refused to sell me alcohol because my ID was damaged, even though it still clearly states I'm above the legal limit (I'm 27 with a beard). She was rude to us throughout the visit. Absolutely SHOCKING service even for a Wetherspoons! This lady should not work here...

Typical Wetherspoons pub, big, ok bar food, nothing special.

The ginger girl who works behind the bar is RUDE! She was rude too my friends and is clearly just pissed off that she works in a spoons. Grow up babe xx

Decent food. Competitively priced drinks and most importantly, friendly and accommodating staff. Will be back
