The best restaurants in Telford and Wrekin West Midlands

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.

Had dinner from Marble Chinese Takeaway last night and it was amazing! Ordered the Sweet and Sour Chicken and Beef Chow Mein. Both dishes had generous portions and tasted delicious. The service was great and delivery was quick, and the food was ready for pick-up in about 10 minutes. Prices are reasonable too, especially for the amount of food you get. Definitely would recommend it to everyone!

Visiting the antique centre we saw it had a tea room. Very nice feeling and very clean. The rwo ladies serving were extremely helpful and very friendly. Nothing was too much trouble! Food was very good too! Excellent coffee! Will certainly go back.

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.

2nd March 2023: This is a great place to get anything from a cuppa to a full cooked lunch. They have a specials menu which has some lovely home cooked dishes on it like cauliflower cheese, or lasagne etc. The selection changes. It's really near (500 yards) from the entrance to the centre and all on one level. They cater for wheelchairs/pushchairs too. All the staff are lovely and will try to cater to all needs (I've never seen anyone be turned away yet). I can't praise this place highly enough. Give it a try, you won't be disappointed. 5⭐

I have decided to now move on and do my weekly shop at Tesco. To start, parking no problem regarding safety. One way system, bigger parking bays and to date no sign of removal size vans parked in the bays. All shelves from what l saw are filled. No shelves with empty boxes with full boxes hidden behind the empty ones. Plenty of friendly staff on the floor to help on finding items for newbie shoppers. Last but not least, no queues, plenty of tills if you don't want to scan your own items,and here again, no queues. So to top it all, no STRESS. So thank you Tesco for making my shopping a pleasure, as for Asda, your loss and Tesco's gain.

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

Ordered a coffee while waiting for the train, lovely coffee and really friendly service. It is so nice for a small station to have somewhere to get a drink.

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

Had a takeaway fir eight adults on Saturday night. Obviously we had a large range of dishes between us. Food was ok really liked the yuk sung but the chicken balls were a bit doughy. I think Oakengates has better options out there to be honest.

Had some chips from McDonald’s about four chips in there taking the absolute piss never getting Mackeys again

Drink bottle put on top of salad box causing it to bend and sauce getting onto bottle

Had a xxL pizza, collection, pizza was Mexican B Orig, and Half BBQ Chicken. After waiting 20 mins, my Pizza was given to me and I took it home, on opening the Box at Home, The contents was Terrible, the Pizza had Very little toppings, the edge of the pizza was around two inches thick, and around 3 inches where there was no Timor’s sauce or toppings, and when trying to pick up pizza, it just fell apart due to the paper thin base which was 60 % of the pizza, as most of the Dough was on the Edges, on informing the staff at Papa Johns, showing them the photos of the above complaint, they just looked at me and said sorry, This was not the answer I was looking for, considering they are one o 3 pizza bars next to each other. Very disappointed.

Fabulous breakfast 🤤 The place needs a new coat of paint, however the staff are lovely and the food is delicious 😋
