The best restaurants in Telford and Wrekin West Midlands

We stayed in the Travelodge next door, so decided to eat here as so convenient. It looked quite rundown from the outside, so were a bit worried what it would be like on the inside. It looked a little better on the inside, but it was very dirty, especially the floor all around the table we were directed to sit at. Obviously a family with young children had been there before us, but no attempt of sweeping up all. What a shame as the food was decent, the best roast lamb I've had in ages and the vegetables were nicely cooked. We went back for breakfast the following morning, again the food was fine, the service was ok, I asked for scrambled eggs, I was told it would take a few minutes, duly arrived perfectly cooked. We decided to use the toilets before we left, really, really dirty and in desperate need of redecorating. Sad to say but it has put us off Toby carvery restaurants. There is no excuse for such poor standards of cleanliness.

Very expensive at the restaurant, pity they didn't do special offers Sometimes for members, !! It was also expensive in the garden centre. I don't know what it is with these garden centres they are so overpriced with everything.

Genuinely don’t understand the negative comments about this lovely establishment. My daughter and I travel from Shrewsbury regularly for their superb carvery… never ever had a disappointing visit. The staff are very welcoming and helpful… I must mention NATHAN the carver in Particular, he is always very helpful and greets everyone with a huge smile and lovely humour there is absolutely no doubt that he is a huge asset to Toby Carvery. Thank you again Apley team for another delicious lunch.

Booked large group table a month in advance, to ensure we would get in as its always been busy in the past. They took my contact details. Arrived on the day to find it shut up in darkness and handwritten sign on door saying closed due to refurb until further notice. Why bother to take contact details and then not use them to advise change in circumstances. Wagamama to the rescue! Having read the reviews since, I have to say it seems we had a near miss as the quality and service isn't what it used to be under previous management.

Pre ordered dinner for delivery, got a mix up which was my fault, but they rectify immediately. Also got no plim sauce for crispy duck so they re came out to me. What wonderful service, truly lovely people and fabulous food as always. Will always use them. Sx

We had the sunday roast beef and lamb shank. The roast dinner tasted like it had been standing around for hours....meat and roast potatoes hard with no flavour. Lamb shank oily, no mint and drowned in gravy. Maybe we chose the wrong day of the week? Also, none of the puddings we ordered were available, although shown on the computer.

We were a bit concerned about some of the reviews of this bar but we need not have worried. We visited early in the evening for a drink before dinner. We had two small bottles of prosecco which cost £15.60 and we were pleased that the staff were so meticulous about cleaning the glasses.

Usually call in two times a week. On three occasions we have had a voucher to use. Today free cookie. Alas no cookies. Can accept that but last two occasions have tried to use a voucher and could not accept as they had run out. Should have gone to the costa inside next and tried there. So lure us in with offer of a free cookie then sorry have all gone. No alternative so looks like by I’m going to go elsewhere

Visited spa at Telford Golf & Country Hotel then had lunch in the Gorge Coffee bar. The food was excellent & service superbly managed by Lesley who was most welcoming. Lovely day out which I would highly recommend

Stopped by for a coffee whilst walking in the area. Lovely garden seating area. The coffee was average but it is a great place to stop at and enjoy the scenery. They have a few snacks and also ice cream. I was told it has been taken over by a charity helping ex-convicts so it deserves some patronage if you are passing.

Regularly unclean, poor services from many members of staff that treat it like a joke rather than a job. Orders regularly wrong or food in cold poor condition just thrown in to bags. And we can't forget the staff chewing gum while preparing food.

I've been going to this nice place for many years & had a good relationship with this gentleman who owns the business. I thought! I've noticed over the years businesses set up, they can't do enough for their customers but unfortunately when they start being rude towards their customers it's time to throw in the towel. They do a card for valued customers. For each hot drink you purchase, you receive a stamp. Once the card is full, you get a free drink.. On one occasion I visited I forgot my card and he hadn't any spares to give me. He assured me on my next visit he would put two onto my card. I remember saying you won't forget will you joking. His reply was no with a smile. Guess what? On our next visit, I purchased food with two hot drinks served by another server. I asked to talk to the gentleman who served me on our last visit. He walked over and I explained politely. He said he couldn't remember and walked off. I asked him again politely. He replied it's just a card and walked off. Yes we have good days and bad days but unfortunately I've noticed over time the Saturday girls & boys have come and gone. Apparently, who havn't been treated nicely, one told me. Now his family are now behind the counter serving. It's just seems like a money making machine with no warmth no smiles towards the customers. I walked over to him and gave him my card. Unfortunately I won't be going back. Such a shame, but it needs to be mentioned.

I came here on an electric scooter which I then realised I wouldn't be able to carry my pizza home. I thought it would fit in my bag but obviously I misjudged. These two really nice guys at the papa John's helped me get it home. This one guy even drove me to my house bc I wasn't able to carry it. It was an unbelievable gift of kindness and something that I can definitely check off my bucket list.

I truly have never had such a bad service, hurried, the lady who served us was rude , got the cake wrong , no sweetener , first words were we close in 30 mins, no smile , very curt, I’m local and this was the first time in months as last time was as bad !!!!… now last time def!! will be telling everyone local that I know ,

Used to be a great little Chinese. Now very expensive, poor quality food and staff rather unhelpful. Won't use again
