Absolutely beautiful meal that was served perfectly. Thank you

Lovely staff very welcoming, the atmosphere was very friendly. The food was the roast we’ve had in a long time.

We had some friends visiting telford and decided as they are house hunting to eat at the Swan. The food was lovley except the roast potatoes were very hard and not one of the six of us could eat them, the sweet section was very limited and we all left a bit disappointed, the staff were great and very helpful.

great food, unfortunately the 2 hour wait for food ruined the night, this coupled with the server not knowing what was ordered made for a very poor experience - chips were out of a bag and not 'hand cut at the Bull' all in all we wont be going back in a hurry

Visited en route to Shrewsbury Folk Festival for a break in my elderly campervan. Nice welcoming, quite busy and comfortable pub, with friendly locals and staff. Well cooked, good value food. Sadly a lack of real ale due to a delivery problem. Wll call again on way way to SFF

Returning customer, love the Expresso Martini on tap and the good cold Guinness. The food is excellent and the mussels are a recurring hit. It's difficult to have all 3 courses because you are well fed with high class gastronomy! Well worth a visit. Book ahead to avoid disappointment!

Lovely welcoming hotel, very nice food and clean and comfortable rooms, Grace and Natalie and all the staff were all stars. A wonderful guy called Connor entertained us on the Friday evening, great call on Grace's part, would definitely visit again.

We came for a wonderful meal Wednesday. It was midweek so not as busy however we looked after very well. Our waitress was extremely helpful. Nice and clean, very attentive and friendly will be back

We had a superb roast pork meal on Sunday late afternoon. Absolutely delicious and excellent value for money. Staff friendly and efficient. Wish we lived closer - we would be there regularly!

Lovely food, great service. We had a brilliant evening, will definitely be back soon.

After arriving promptly for a 5pm reservation to celebrate our sons birthday, the evening went down hill very rapidly. The waitress who took our drinks order came back twice to check what we wanted (even though it wasn’t difficult to remember!). We then waited a further 30 mins before we had to ask someone to order food. The lady who took our order couldn’t have been less interested. It wasn’t a busy time to be in the retirar so expected food to be delivered in a timely manner. After waiting a further 45 mins and running out of drinks, we tried to order more drinks only for the waitress to acknowledge us twice and never return. By this point we still had no food (1 hr 30 mins since arriving). When we asked where our food was, (as no one bothered to check up on us despite knowing we’d ordered food) we were told there’s been an IT issue and order hadn’t printed to the kitchen. This despite other tables receiving their food ok! Almost two hours after arriving we finally got our food. And it wasn’t really worth the wait! We have visited the pub frequently since moving to the area 5 years ago and this isn’t a one off. We have experienced slow and poor service before, particularly on an evening. We won’t be returning any time soon as there are a large number of high quality eateries within the vicinity that we would rather spend our money at and know we will be treated as valued customers. A very poor experience which could have been better had the staff actually shown any interest their customers.

Visited with friends whilst in Ironbridge. Food was decent and good value but the service was disappointing. One of our party was delivered the wrong meal initially. Whilst this was eventually rectified without fuss, it took a long time for us to get the attention of the servers despite sitting in a high traffic area. We struggled to order drinks, and at no point did anyone check that our food was ok. Dirty plates sat on our table for 20+ minutes and eventually we gave up on desert. Once we managed to get the attention of staff to pay, the bill was incorrect (in fact the waitress suggested that I make sure I checked it carefully!!). I understand that the pub was busy and perhaps they were short of staff but their lack of attention ruined our experience and I don’t think we will be back when next in town.

Booked a table for two for Sunday lunch for midday . We're greeted by friendly staff who escorted us to the table and took our drinks order . Ordered two Sunday dinners then we waited for for 45 mins , meals were very tasty and everything well cooked.After we had finished we waited another 20 minutes for our plates to be taken and order pudding. We ordered pudding then waited another 30 minutes for them to arrive and again they were delicious. By this time the pub was busy but there were only two members of staff serving and they were clearly struggling. Can't fault the food just needs another member of staff to speed service and it would have been a better experience.

We visited The Bull for the first time and really enjoyed it. There were plenty of choices on the menu and I decided on a curry dish. It came out well presented and it tasted delicious! The service was excellent and they made sure that we always had a drink and checked our meals were ok. We will definitely be visiting again soon!

Excellent meal. All three courses spot on

I booked lunch for four of us and we all had a different meal. All of our meals were delicious! Plus served by lovely friendly staff. We will be back very soon. Thank you for a delightful lunch time.

Delicious meal here again. Food hot and tasty and well presented. Staff attentive. Lovely surroundings and atmosphere. Definitely be visiting again.
