Reviews in Shropshire

Visited on 17/6/21 with friends, had a really lovely evening. Food was great, service was faultless, all in all highly recommended.

First lunch out in a very long time and very enjoyable it was. Good food and service in a safe environment. I look forward to returning.

Beautifully refurbished now The Water Rat is even better than ever. Had a brilliant lunch here on Sun, great choice of food and wine. Very pleasant and efficient staff. Only 1 complaint please add a cheeseboard to the menu at lunchtime especially in the very hot weather

First time here after lockdown and refurbishment. To be honest wouldn’t rush back . The meal was ok, we had starters (which were nice) two Sunday lunches, again which were nice and two fish and chips. The fish looked very greasy and not very well presented. Staff were very nice and efficient though. Refurbishment looks good but the toilets need an upgrade.

Myself and my husband had been looking forward to a Sunday lunch cooked by someone else since the beginning of lock down and we were not disappointed. Beautiful beef and the roast potatoes I could have eaten a plateful. Very accommodating staff when we were seated inside the restaurant and I asked if we could move outside, we were moved Straight away. Only two things could have improved this brilliant experience, To be offered a wine list Extra vegetables and gravy All in all we’ll be booking to come back

We had a lovely Sunday lunch here yesterday. The staff on duty were friendly and very Efficient. The food was beautiful and the portion sizes were perfect, I honestly couldn’t fault a single thing, I feel so grateful to have this little gem in our town. Special mention to the lady on duty who was so friendly towards my son who wanted to give her the money to pay our bill. I have been here a few times with a friend on a Thursday & this lady goes above & beyond each time. We will be back very soon.

Lovely place to chill, have a fantastic meal & a drink (just the right amount). Had the salmon fish cake which was lovely. Staff were friendly and service brilliant, thank you.

Venue recommended by our guest house proprietor and are delighted at her suggestion. Food was extremely good and the service excellent plus screens separating tables when required. Can recommend without hesitation

We had two meals with you while staying in Ironbridge, both meals were excellent, we were made to feel very welcome. Good service & attention. Thanks

An unexpected al fresco fine dining experience in the centre of Ironbridge. Fabulous food, friendly and efficient staff and reasonably priced wine. We ate here on Monday, June 7th and enjoyed it so much we went back on Wednesday the 9th!

Revamped building looks spectacular Lovely having expansive outdoor space too Staff very friendly and helpful Food looked and tasted delicious... a nod to the White Hart influence Felt relaxed and safe with Covid protections A request - please offer a range of AF BEER - there is so much out there now that tastes wonderful !

After a long year of lockdown I was looking forward to going out for some local food ,I was very disappointed was not ask to use the track and trace till I was sat down at my table then sew people walking in with staff and no face covering never sew any staff to order a second drink . Would not recommend think staff need to be trained on customer service.

The food and the service were lovely.

Amazing, good quality food and quick service! Definitely return!

Food was satisfactory but the service was unsatisfactory, there was not enough staff on, we waited quite a while for our main course, we was not asked if everything was ok with our meal and we wasn't asked if we wanted anymore drinks.

Service from the Manager Zoe was fabulous as was the food. A very good start back to working in these new times.

We arrived at the Water Rat in eager anticipation not knowing what to expect. As former Meadow Inn enthusiasts we were a little bit early so we sat outside to enjoy a drink. After going inside to our table we were disappointed with the menu, we found it overpriced and restrictive due to the overemphasis on onions.

Excellent meal even on a Tuesday night after a busy Bank Holiday. We’ve never been disappointed with the quality of the food and service. Thoroughly recommended.
