The best restaurants serving British food in Ironbridge Gorge Telford and Wrekin West Midlands

We visited this restaurant for a birthday dinner there was six of us and we all ordered different things the food was lovely we also had cocktails tge porn star martinis were fantastic it's very busy and has great service and ambience

Having read the reviews and spoken to friends I went with good expectations. Sadly it seems that today 23rd March they must have had a bad day and as a result I wouldn't return back here. As someone who is neurodivergent it was sensory hell from the moment I walked in to when I walked out. The noise of the music playing was at the level of a nightclub. The amount of times that guests / staff walked into me made the experience more problematic. It would have been beneficial for the staff to have made me aware that they were behind me and passing food, or glasses onto the table. The table we were sat at was not something that a greasy spoon cafe would use rather than one that is meant to be of a good standard. As for the food, it wasn't to the standard of a roadside cafe. The roast potatoes had gone cold, the chicken felt like it was uncooked, it was that bad I just couldn't eat it. I didn't trust the staff to be able to fix it. Having looked at the other reviews today the staff must have had a bad day, I just hope that they don't have too many other bad days

Excellent food , what more can I say. The only thing lacking was the weather!

Visited today and it’s such a beautiful welcoming place from the moment the door was held open for me and my baby till the delicious cake was served washed down with a beautifully crafted mochaccino ♥️ thank you for a lovely place to rest with my newborn daughter during our walk in Ironbridge today xxx

it was our first time altogether visiting telford for a day out and we came across this cafe. it was gorgeous inside and out and perfect spot for our lunch. incredibly welcoming from the get go. we were greeted upon arrival and given instructions for how to order. chicken and brie panini, cheese and beans jacket potato, and pulled pork nachos? we could have eaten 14 of them. the chai lattes? could have drunk a gallon of them. the pistachio cake and pistachio chocolate tart? just pass us the whole cake please. and the staff? now i love a natter, especially around deciding what dessert to get and my god did they deliver. might have been one of the chefs or the boss themselves (cant quite remember) but the rundown on the cakes he gave us was so appreciated and was a great laugh, likewise with the waitress we had on the day. 10/10 would go again.

So an amazing Sunday lunch , beef so good and Yorkshire sublime, but was super nice the great service from the very young waitresses they had confidence and great customer service skills and really genuine really made a difference.

We want to thank the wonderful Jackie for her kindness on making us marvellous fresh cups of tea to go an hour before official opening of the tea rooms as we had arrived early by car from the Belfast/Liverpool ferry en route to a wedding in Cornwall and were in desperate need of a refreshing brew

Was staying in Ironbridge for a few days on a family trip. The place we were renting didn't have parking so went looking for a spot. Went inside here to ask the bartender if she knew of any spots in the area we could park. She said we could park in their car park. Thanked her a lot and went to park up. Just as we parked up a middle aged man comes out of the pub. Starts shouting at me and my family for parking there, saying we are taking away parking spots from his customers and that he's trying to run a business here. I apologised and said 'I'm just going off what the bartender said, sorry about that', he tells me that it doesn't matter what she says, he's the owner. I understand he doesn't want us parking there, but to handle a misunderstanding like that? by shouting, trying to intimidate and being rude? just no need for it at all. He ended the conversation by saying 'If you don't come in for a drink tonight your cars will be gone by the morning'. Great way to bring in customers to your pub!

We took our French friends to have a English breakfast and they were amazed at the wonderful food and service we received a great big thank you to all of the staff

Having looked at the website and reviews, we hoped for so much, but underwhelming. Food okay at best, but staff leave a lot to be desired. They have a manner of little interest and cba. The staff couldn't answer the simplest question about the dishes, ie what cheese is on the cheese board? Enquired for more detailed about the menu, and questions couldn't be answered. Wife's steak... tbh was the thickness of a minute steak for a sandwich, and eventhough she requested medium rare, it arrived medium to well done. Asked for a second portion of chips, told would take a few minutes and these arrived within seconds, which means to me they are not cooked to order but reheated at best. Then when you sit in the bar area and have paint peeling of the walls because of damp. Not great.

I went here yesterday for the first time and had a lovely lunch with my parents and some friends and the staff where very welcoming and polite. There was a good selection of ales which was really nice to see and although it was fairly busy the service didn't seem to lack. So I ordered the chicken and got an entire half a chicken I wasn't expecting that, and all the other food that came out looked and smelled amazing, after we ordered some deserts, I had a orange chocolate fudge cake. Loved it. I will definitely be coming back for another visit and after talking with the landlady about the renovations, ive already booked a room for the summer.

Great location, but the hotel rooms needs some serious TLC. Nice to go for just a drink but we wouldn't stay there again until the rooms are upgraded.

Awful. I can appreciate that they were busy but the service from start to finish was dire. Had a table booked. Sat us at a table that was only half set up. Asked staff to make up the rest. Ignored. Waited ages for a menu with staff just walking past us not giving a toss. O service of any kind. Had to repeatedly ask for a menu. Food came. All burnt. I've never seen such cremated veg. You could have used it for charcoal. At nearly £17 a pop it was horrendous. They gave 3 of us the same sized veg bowl as tables for two were getting. Hardly any veg. I hadn't asked for anything at all and I asked a member of staff for some horseradish sauce. Some girl covered head to foot in tattoos. She widened her eyes at me in a way she must have thought was threatening and was so rude to me and told me to wait. I've literally never seen such a rude waitress. She will do that to someone one day and get knocked out. Had to go to bar to pay. No one came to see how our food was. My partner told them all the food was burned. Staff didn't care. Don't waste your money on anything but a drink here. Beautiful location shame about the rest.
