Tony's Diner in Shropshire

Popped in here on the way back home with my Dad and we both had the cod and chips. Have to say they were probably the best I’ve had in a long, long time! Chips were cooked from fresh not frozen and the batter on the fish was crispy and light. Their breakfasts are also really good and it’s spotlessly clean inside. Many thanks!!

Delicious Fish and Chips, freshly cooked, fresh fish with a light crispy batter, golden chips with either garden or mushy peas. All enjoyed with a hot cup of tea. What’s not to like, and no washing up! Eaten at Tony’s many times and always the same high standard.

As I’ve said, lovely food, warm welcome. I do wish it was warm inside. Went last week and we were absolutely froze! Food was piping hot though so that helped!

Really like the look of the new menu and the food is very tasty, cooked to order and tasted fresh. Thank you!

We have been using Tony's diner for a few years as we have a caravan over the road we recently went in and Ordered 2 of the specials mini fish and chips with bread and butter and peas 1 coffee and 1 orange juice and it cost £27 when the fish and chips arrived at the table i was gob smacked the fish was so small it fitted on the slice of bread and only a few chips definitely not worth the money so sorry to say goodbye to Tony's.

Customer service was great however the cheeseburger made me vomit I had to go outside and the smell made it even worse the fish my auntie had made her feel sick to but the way the burger was made me vomit is disgusting do not recommend this place at all

So let's start with the positives! Food was good and was piping hot when we got it.. Hubby had a sausage and tomato sandwich, and I had the kids brekkie (the adult ones were just too big!) so fab that they let an adult have a kids meal 😊 On the negative - it was REALLY noisy in there and it took ages for our food to arrive even though it wasn't really that busy.. And the washrooms need attention (that's all I'll say on that matter!!) So not bad, but in our opinion could do with a little TLC

Stopped here for tea, amazing fish and chips! The best fish and crispy batter EVER. So came back two days later, and just as perfect! Amazing hospitality, so friendly, courteous and attentive. Fabulous place, spotlessly clean and brilliant menu choices. We'll be back again. Thank you. Julie and Ken x

Called last night for takeout. Staff really pleasant and helpful, food awful. I usually rate the diner but must have different cook because chips were soft, very greasy just awful. I will not be returning in a hurry. Such a shame.

We along with our friends last visited Tony's diner a few years ago. We had up till then come over quite regularly. Our friends loved coming with us, the food and service first class. Sadly several years ago along with our friends the experience from one of the staff was unacceptable. No smiles or being pleasant at all. As we were regulars we always paid at the end incase we decided on a sweet, we told her this but her reponse was :-. you have to pay straight away "how do I know you wont do a runner" - this comment was given to our friend. The same lady bought out our meals where she plonked the plates on the table. We all looked at each other shocked at her manner. The whole experience put us off coming again. We hope after all this time to try it again, but nervous about the way we may be welcomed and served. Hopefully this lady has gone or at least been told how to deal with people. By the way I had to fill in when we went I put 2022, but it was well before then.

Fantastic Mega Breakfast perfectly hit the spot on our days off. Lots of great British options. Nice view of the fields below.

Unfortunately the day I popped in the air was thick with grease. I left with all my clothes smelling as if I’d worked a shift behind the grill!! Hopefully it was just a glitch in the ventilation system.

Delicious breakfast. Had to wait about 15 minutes but it was worth it. All food was freshly cooked and piping hot. Thought the price of a cup of tea was high.

Great place to eat, so much variety of dishes, good old fashioned food with proper fish and chips, love Tonys diner! super friendly staff too. We always stop for lunch on the way to Dudmaston Hall and the Cider house.

Called in for breakfast for 2, made welcome by the owner who also brought over our food, this was very nice, we were the only customers, just as we had finished a lady member of staff was tidying up saw our dog and frostily said dogs are not allowed in the cafe and we shouldn't of been served, I had checked the facebook page, no mention of dogs banned, before we went in I also checked any signs on the door or inside, nothing at all. Her manner was quite rude, we immediately walked out & were welcomed to the biker cafe opposite, I have no problems with dogs being banned but would be nice if a notice to this effect was on display.

My friend and I were revisiting Chester and as before decided to have breakfast at Tony's. This really is such a homely place with tasty generous portions. We both had the full English. There are three different options depending on your appetite. The food is freshly and swifty prepared in quick time. Friendly staff who are most welcoming. The kitchen and preparations can be seen from the restaurant. This is always a good sign, so they are confident of their high preparation standards. The prices are most reasonable. Nice views towards the Severn from the elevated location of the cafe. On our return from Chester a few days later we arrived for early dinner. I had the traditional Fish & Chips. So tasty and most generous portion. My friend had the Cottage Pie & Chips. He also had the Apple Pie and Custard - Wow what an appetite! Coffee and Tea to compliment the meal. Soft drinks are available if required. It would appear that there is no alcohol served at this restaurant. On my previous visit I enjoyed the Liver and Onion, unfortunately it was not available on this particular occasion - so next time maybe? Our compliments to Tony's, thank you for such good service and meals.

A cafe that can’t or won’t cook poached eggs or scrambled eggs… only eggs on offer are ones swimming in grease. Didn’t order and left which is a shame as the breakfast looked nice. But as no other way of cooking an egg was available we went else where to eat (across the road)

Brilliant little cafe. Me and my Boyfriend always enjoy the all day breakfasts that they do. Great food and not ridiculously priced!

Great little lunch stop outside with the dogs. Fish and Chips proper fresh and cooked to order. The battered Halloumi was amazing too 😍

It's been a while since I've eaten here as I've moved abroad. I fancied fish and chips, and knew this was the beat place to get them. I wasn't wrong! Fantastic friendly service, freshly cooked fish and chips - delicious! Wouldn't hesitate to recommend this...

Quality fish and chips. Eat in or take away. Take away You can all so order and its ready right on time.

We were coming back to Daniels Mill from a trip on the Severn Valley railway and needed an evening meal. Popped into Tony's following other reviews and were glad we did. Freshly cooked fish and chips - perfect end to the day !

Eat here most saturday mornings. Staff always friendly. Food is always spot on. Can take a while if its busy but never waited more than 25 minutes. Over all great place.

Tried the cafe for the first time my order was wrong and when I mentioned it to the person behind the counter I was spoken to very abruptly as if I was wrong and should have just eaten it, when my order was replaced it...

Today we had a wonderful meal,so glad we chose Tonys for which really was our first time eating in anywhere since lock down lifted.My husband and sister are very vulnerable to Covid but they both felt relaxed that all was being done to help keep...

Tony dishes up a variety of café food as well as teapot made tea. The food is delicious, the staff are charming and you may get a view of a steam train across the valley of the River Severn. There are plenty of tables outside...

Called in today and had the best fish & chips we've ever had in a cafe. Chips were like the home cooked ones mom used to cook. Fish fresh with crispy batter . Tilly enjoyed her sausage. Friendly staff . We'll definitely be going again.

What a find. We were casually passing on a day’s out, and fancied a brunch. Tony’s Diner was spot on. If the truth be told, we were looking for a toilet stop, with cup of coffee to justify using the facilities. When we went in,...

Both sit in and takeaway service is first rate, we used the Sunday dinner takeaway for the 1st time last Sunday (lamb dinner) the meal was excellent, would recommend to anyone. 10 out of 10. Social distancing sorted!

First time at Tony's today, we all had a full English breakfast. Food was freshly cooked and delicious. Service was great.All the staff were happy & the owners made an effort to come and talk to us. Very welcoming. We will definately be making regular...

Got a takeaway, lovely food, polite staff, place was very clean, well worth a stop off! Parking outside

Initial response as we parked out front was place looked tired However we had read previous reviews and ordered breakfast Full English with mushroom Poached eggs on toast Tea was perfect Latte :-) Normal coffee which is a rare find! Fire was roaring and was...

Mouth watering, fresh fish and chips of the highest quality. Was offered coffee on the house while I waited for them to cook this taste sensation! Well worth the five minutes wait.

Stopped here for breakfast, it was possibly the best full English I've had. Everything was fresh, good quality and cooked perfectly, friendly staff, clean venue. If you're after a decent breakkie, this is your place.

Prices good, food good, lovely service. Nice and clean. It is what it is, and does it very well. Good find.

Called in today on the drive home from Chester to Gloucestershire (use Whitchurch, Shrewsbury, Bridgnorth, Worcester, M5 - when the M6/M5 junction is busy.....), phone ahead to Pete, Tony’s grandson. Phoned 15 minutes before arrival - 5.00pm and ordered small fish & chips and a can of Pepsi for the the great price of £6.00 a head. Parked up, used the loo, picked up fish and chips and back on the road in less than 10 minutes. Alternatively you can eat in and add a scummy pud. Haven’t tried other food on the menu but it looks amazing! Just good old Blighty favourites. The Sunday roast looks like fantastic value for money. My fish and chips - absolutely delicious!!! Could not be faulted. The staff are just great.On other occasions when we have called in earlier in the day, there have been plenty of local people in - that says a lot about a place.Keep doing what you are doing Pete and the team. # In the past because they do get busy, we have had to wait, which is why we now phone ahead on 01746 764011

My wife and I have eaten here on our own and have also met family here as its half way between where they and we live. We have had specials, sandwiches and lots of others. The ONLY disappointing meal I have ever had here was a salad during the summer that didnt have much taste,Everything else has been really good, the omelettes and the fish and chips are both simply terrific. The teas are both very reasonably priced and really have a taste unlike teas I have had elsewhere. I have always eaten in but there is a takeaway option. Its so good to get served by staff who are friendly, it makes such a difference. I havent had the breakfast but it looks big and looks very tasty too. Prices are very reasonable too. Its a great diner,

Went here on recommendation from trip advisor and thought we’d got the wrong place. No kerb appeal but don’t be fooled. Inside there is so much choice and their breakfast was outstanding for the price. I had fried bread with mine and it was perfect which is unusual as most places it is far too greasy. Not at Tony’s. The staff were exceptional too and made us feel like we where just nipping in for food at our parents house. Happy staff happy diner. Thankyou

Very reasonably priced. Traditional fair (and doner kebabs?) with no frills. The food was fast and hot. Pleasant staff. The place looked a little tired but it’s perfectly fine. Lots of families in there when we stopped by on our way to Dudmaston Hall, which is just up the road.

We thought we would try their Lam Sunday Lunch .It was busy when we arrived but managed to get seats in conservatory .The meal arrived quickly and was hot. Plenty of vegetables and lots on plate.

Pulled up for a real quick sandwich, but had to wait quite a while for it to come. Food was ok but nothing special so i guess i wouldnt pull in again.

I absolutely love this place, been coming here for many years travelling from Kidderminster just for a breakfast (it’s that good!) however the last few times I have come here the older lady (who seems to be in charge) who is on the till is so rude. Rolling her eyes at me when she’d assumed I’d finished ordering but hadn’t & she still got my order wrong. Got to say majority of the time whenever the younger staff are on the till, we never have a problem. This lady needs moving to the back to cook the food not on the till. Great customer service is what keeps people coming back.

If your in a rush, this isn’t the place to stop. The service is slow. . The food is about right, for the price you pay. It is also clean and presentable.

absolutely awful not gonna even write any more - hygiene stands are awful and when i complained wow it was like i was the guilty party

Drove past many times but first time visit.

Tony’s Diner is so much more than just a cafe. As the day progresses so does Tony’s. Whether you “eat in” or take away the food and service is fantastic and at an affordable price. Breakfasts merge into a lunch time menu and in turn to regular fish and chips or even kebab meat and salad. Whatever you decide to have I am sure you will not be disappointed, I cannot recommend this establishment and its staff enough.

Great food, with lots of choices. Everyone working there is friendly and helpful. Overall it’s fantastic!

This diner is about the half way point on regular trips (3/4 times a year) my wife & I have been making up north for many years to visit family. As such we have been called there many many times over the years-in fact sure it was one of the old "Little Chef's" when we first started to go! It is great for quick drink/meal, comfort break & to stretch legs a bit on a 5/6 hour journey.

The roasts here are the best value you will get. Excellent food at really good prices. Tony and Anna are great people.

And here is me thinking you couldn't better chezfred in Westbourne, lovely freshly cooked fish and chips and a friendly smile from the staff, fantastic and I would highly recommend.

Considering the location of this place ,on a main road . i didn't think this was very welcoming, we thought the food was cheap quality and basic,enough people in there though so someone must like it, just not our sort of place.

I didn't expect to find two great cafes within 200 yards of each other! Called in for breakfast. 2 sausages, 2 bacon, egg, fried bread, tomatoes and I swapped the beans for a round of toast. Freshly cooked and very good. Stunning views over the valley. At £4.55 excellent value . Slight delay in being served. Comfortable surroundings. Would recommend

I have had breakfasts and meals here many times and the food and friendly service are excellent. The chips here are second to none. Ive been to hundreds of chip shops all over the country but Tonys chips are the very best. Excellent.

Lovely breakfast. Freshly cooked. Served efficiently. Staff helpful and pleasant. Deserves to be better known although it was very busy when we arrive with a complete mixture of people who had already found this place.

We had breakfast here on the way to our Bank Holiday Monday day out. Very good vale for money at £5.45 for the deluxe breakfast with extra black pudding and mushrooms, yummy .

Called in today as I was passing. Tables were occupied with used crockery and cups, even my own -when my order came they were not taken away - still there when I left - no-one bothering to tidy up and clean the used tables down - disappointed!. Probably over the road to the Food Stop next time

My wife and son popped here for a breakfast on a Saturday morning. It was reasonably busy, but we didn't have to wait all that long. Wendy had the full English while me and Greg had the deluxe. With 2 read and a hot chocolate the bill came in at just under £19. The breakfasts were nice, although mine and Wendy's tea was a bit strong.

Tony is very friendly! Had a lovely home made curry and jacket potato with beans. Service a little slow but delivered with a smile. Very reasonably priced. Thanks Tony!

Called in for breakfast after seeing a few recommendation and found a 1970’s bikers lay-by cafe and nothing wrong with that. As we called in for breakfast I can only comment on that although the menu is far more extensive. My wife and I both ordered full English breakfasts and although the staff where polite and seemingly efficient the wait for our food to arrive was slightly long at about 30 minutes. Once I front of us the only real complaint was that it was on the greasy side, the quality of the ingredients was fairly good and quite enjoyable and would have been so much better with slightly more drainage of the oil. The coffee on the other hand was weak and only just about drinkable( although I admit this is a question of taste).

Visited here for a Sunday lunch and though outside doe not look inviting the interior is clean and pleasant and has great views in conservatory section . The meal was quick to arrive and was hot only gripe was that meat was catering lamb rather than roast . Overall meal was good and will be visiting again for the breakfast as looked good.

Had a full English deluxe breakfast, 2 sausage, 2 bacon, 2 black pudding, 2eggs, beans, mushrooms, tomatoes and toast all beautifully cooked and pipping hot what more can I say Amazing!!!

This is a lovely place with scenic views as it overlooks the river seven, the place is very clean throughout, and I am to believe that in cold weather they have an open fire that is used

My parent and I thought it would be nice to stop and try your breakfast. Let's just say fattie bacon, tin tomatos, tin mushroom, oily fryed bread, vile fattie sausages! We won't be having breakfast again.

We have passed this cafe many times on our way to Wales. Today we decided to stop for breakfast. Breakfast was great and the coffee was hot. So many times in other places coffee is luke warm. We shall definitely be stopping by again the future.

Came here with my little boy after a morning down the stables and working up an appetite. Adults and Kids...

We have been using Tony's Diner for a number of years, in fact since they have opened. They have put...

La mermelada y tostadas y pedimos salchichas sandwich. Se informó de que debido a la época, a unos 15 minutos por el servicio - todo bien hasta ahora. Esperamos durante 50 minutos, vimos sandwich de salchicha bajo la placa caliente (por 5 minutos), pero no tostadas! Los felicité con educación en el record" para el tiempo más largo para hacer tostadas", rechazó la restitución, y a la izquierda.

Decisión de último minuto a tomar un paseo en la bella campiña de shropshire paramos en "Tony" s Diner y puedo decir honestamente que disfrutamos el más sabroso bacalao, eglefino y patatas fritas nunca. Hemos comido fuera una vez antes, pero decidimos comer en. Tiene una gran zona de restaurante muy limpio, donde nos sentamos en una cómoda mesa de ventana que daba a la exuberante campiña verde. La chica y chico que nos servía era cálido y amable, hay muchas comidas con buenos precios para elegir. El pescado era hermosa y agradable empanada crujiente fino, no apabullantes como algunos lugares, sabrosa vieja usanza gran patatas sabor el tamaño de las porciones. Los baños estaban muy limpias creo que esto va un largo camino. Al salir nos encontramos con un hombre encantador (como mi padre) estaba sentada a la mesa, nos imaginamos que era Tony, así dijo gracias, él vivió en nuestro cuello de los bosques. Cuando la oportunidad surge definitivamente volveré de nuevo una vez las veces adivinan viniendo en el hospital. gracias unos recuerdos muy felices. Dios Blessx.

Sólo comimos aquí con algunos amigos. En nuestra opinión hay una autenticidad refrescante sobre este lugar. Comida decente - personal agradable - fantástica relación calidad-precio, buenas vistas al valle.

I go once a week, every week. Each time the food is brilliant. Chips are always fresh, fish is amazing. but even better are the battered sausages!My friend has a breakfast, who gobbles it up pretty quick and is always satifiedMy only quibble is the radioactive orange tommy ketchup! It must be some bottom of the barrel veritiy. Non the less that's a tiny quibble.

When I was younger (when I was around 8-10 so about 10 years ago) we used to have a caravan in the park opposite and we would regularly visit Tony's for breakfast and lunch. Me and my dad would always order the curry with rice and chips and we would absolutely love it every single time. Recently, my boyfriend and I were trying to think of somewhere to go for lunch and I came up with the idea to take him to one of my favourite childhood restaurants. Bare in mind that I live just over 20 miles away! I was so pleased to see that my favourite curry was still on the menu and it tasted just as I remembered, so nice! My boyfriend ordered the faggots, chips and mushy peas and he certainly wasn't disappointed either. The staff are always friendly and we got to know them really well, but unfortunately I am now 20 instead of 10 and they didn't recognise me! Nevertheless, a really friendly family run business with a clean, nicely decorated venue and really tasty food!

We called here for Sunday lunch as a family. We were all very impressed. Very generous portions for the price of the dinner. Staff friendly clean inside and seemed popular as quite busy when we went. We will be back.

Love coming here for breakfast, log fire, always warm. Breakfast s are very good , very reasonable. Coffee and tea good too. Plenty of parking

The food was good and plentiful for the price. Specialists in fish & chips menu was a little bit leaning to that type of food Burgers Kebabs pies etc They do salads and limited other dishes. Atmosphere a little dated but overall very clean.

several visits here, some with hungry grandchildren. take away service and quality excellent, generous hot portions, plenty of choice or eat in and be spoiled. food freshly cooked, views over severn valley from restaurant. very clean and comfy. several chippies in area but tony's is worth the short trip out of town.

My wife and I are regular diners and although there is a wide range of dishes on the menu we favour the 'Fish & Chips' and quite happily confirm that they are the best for miles around. They are consistent in all respects and the staff are always courteous and professional

Took my wife here for lunch on the way to a shopping trip. It wasn't all that busy, but we had a much longer wait than anticipated. I had fish, chips and mushy peas while my wife had the all day breakfast. The food was nice, but nothing special.

We had mini fish and chips forgot to order mushy peas, that was my faultThey did a cheese and onion pie for my friend which was deliciousThe staff are very attentive and the food is cooked freshSo expect a short wait while you drink your beverage I love the place, run well by a traditional Greek family

Lovely food and very friendly staff also reasonably priced will definitely visit again good choice of menu. Well worth a visit

Abbiamo mangiato molto bene serviti in poco tempo staff molto simpatico ci siamo divertiti molto lo consiglio a tutti

Waited 20 minutes for the worst ever Chicken Kebab, the Pitta Bread was so overheated it was rock hard, never ever seen that before. Chips were not much better either.I think someone was training but there were 3 people involved in trying to make the Kebab and they all seem confused!Lovely view and very friendly staff but food below standard

Great food , very good value for money , stunning views behind the cafe to look over and all complemented by friendly and professional staff. Would recommend this place 100% to anyone.

Have been to Tony's a few times over the past few weeks - always good food, very friendly staff and sensible prices. Would highley recommend it to anyone. Open for breakfast, lunch and dinner.

We have been here for so many breakfasts which is a favourite of ours. Very friendly staff and always happy to make conversation. Food is amazing and very filling, crusty bread is a bonus and you can add extras to your meal. Also a traditional fish and chip shop but you can eat in the restaurant or take away. Haven't tried the other food, but it's the best breakfast around and we travel a good 20 miles you get there! Well worth it!

this a friendly place to eat the food is good and the staff are fantacic it just the place to stop and eat either on the way out for the day or on the way back

After reading all the superb reviews of Tony's Diner here on Tripadvisor, we thought we'd drive the short distance and try 'Tony's' for ourselves. The reviews are quite right, Tony's fish and chips are really quite excellent, some of the very best in the area. We'll most certainly call in again to eat and will be recommending to others we know to do likewise.

My husband tells me he has stopped there since achild 60 years ago. Maybe bit different layout or new doors or windowsExcellent value. Over 60 s menu in week. Take away. We are in and the plaice in batter was freshly cooked and the batter to die for. I had cottage pie which was good. Judging by the amount of cars outside very popular.Cheap clean and tasty and the staff were very helpful.

Tony and his staff are so friendly and customer focuses. Service is fast and the food fantastic. A perfect place for good old fashioned fish and chips. You can even taste the sea

Situated between Bridgnorth and kidderminster Tony's is a welcome place to eat and rest.Comfortable chairs spacious with free news papers and clean toilets ,friendly approach from staff and a real relaxed atmosphere .Breakfast is very good with decent bacon quality coffee and drinking chocolate can't really fault it for the price.Plenty of car parking spaces so you will park.Is it romantic no is it posh no but it is great for what it is honest food cooked to order at a reasonable price.

Great fish & chips excellent choices from menu great value, we have over sixties mini fish & chips with bread & butter & mug tea all for under a tenner what more can you want.

I was told about this family friendly restaurant being good but expectations were actually exceeded, it was superb. Freshly cooked fish was delightful and the fact that they cook with rape seed oil makes it a healthier choice. I will be back...hopefully also at one of their famous Greek nights.

I have eaten here several times. It is a roadside diner, nothing fancy but the staff are very friendly and helpful and the food is excellent and great value for money. I had the liver and bacon, on recommendation, it was fantastic and as such I have never been temped to try anything else even though it all looks lovely.

this is a proper road-side diner on the A442 half way between kidderminster and bridgnorth.the menu is large and varied, from all-day 2- of-everything breakfasts for £5, to a huge cod and chips for £6.we had the cod which was tasty and well cooked as were the chips. friendly staff, o.k. toilets,spacious clean restaurant, river views and big car park. good value.

On the way up to north wales we called in and had a full English breakfast ,the staff were very pleasant and polite .l ordered the full English and my wife a well done bacon sandwich both with coffees.we didn't have to wait very long for the order to arrive ,the food was excellent and well presented. 100% recommend Tony's diner .

If you are passing then drop in without fail. The bacon sandwiches are amazing, the people really lovely. This is a really, really good roadside caff.

We stopped at Tony's for a quick lunch and we were totally satisfied. Amazing fresh food, low prices and polite staff. 100% recommended

We walked up from were we where staying and was pleasantly surprised with the food and service we received, the staff were lovely and efficient the cottage pie and the chilli con carne my partner had were home cooked and delicious.

We pop in for haddock and chips a few times a year - it really is the most amazing fish anywhere! Beautiful thin crispy batter, surrounding sweet white fish. Beautiful chips and fantastic service! You just can't beat this little gem! Don't be put off by the slightly dated decor just look at the yummy food on your plate!! We love this place and we're very hard to please!

We visited Tony's diner for the second time today and we were'nt dissapointed. The staff were friendly and welcoming, we all had a cooked breakfast which was very good value and hot and tasty. The food was very good quality and you could pick what you wanted. Well done Tony's we will certainly come back.
