Lovely birthday meal
Water Rat – IronbridgeBooked a meal with 4 adults and 2 children. Upon arrival we were the only customers which we didn't mind. Drinks order taken promptly and food order followed shortly after. The starters took about 30mins to arrive which was a long time for what we ordered. The chicken wings were fresh and very good More diners had arrived during this time. There was only one staff member working front of house which delayed food coming from the kitchen due to her having to focus on pouring drinks and taking orders. Mains arrival 45mins later. Food was hot mainly and was okay. Burgers seem to be frozen low quality unfortunately but smoked sausage was relatively flavourful. The mac and cheese lacked flavour and didnt have a great texture l. Desserts had been ordered at the start yet they took another 30mins to arrive which was a long time and we ended up being there for over 2hrs. Staffing needs improving along with the quality of products offered. It wouldn't be difficult to make fresh burgers each day. Overall it was a okay meal with long waits.
The Smokey Cow – TelfordWe visited on a Bank Holiday Monday when there was also an event on in Ironbridge. Generally the food was very good, however, I was disappointed with the Steak Frites. I knew that the steak would be small (advertised as 4oz), however, it was much smaller - the size if a small child's palm - 5 forks worth. Ordinarily I would have sent it back but we had already waited a very long time. The staff were working very hard but there just wasn't enough of them - there should have been better planning in this regard as we saw lots of people leave, uncleared tables and long delays.
The Malthouse – TelfordHad a lovely meal on 27th August. Fish in a lovely crispy batter . Hot wings and calamari cooked to perfection.
Water Rat – IronbridgeFood was great But service was poor Forgotten drinks Had I asked to be served
The Malthouse – TelfordFood was amazing and great value however service was shocking, waited so long for drinks, food and wasn’t even checked on. There was only 2 tables when we arrived and the one table next to us complained that they waited 15 minutes for drinks and over 30 minutes for a dessert order. I went to find a member of staff to ask for some sauce and found what I presume the manager and waitress to be sad down talking whilst people were waiting to be served at the bar. Awful service and awful atmosphere it’s a shame because the food was lovely
The Smokey Cow – TelfordWhat a find.....we enjoyed a lovely meal here and were particularly impressed at the amount of gf options. Deserts were limited on the day which was a shame. Staff friendly and knowledgeable. Outdoor furniture could do with a revamp as seemed a bit tatty but enjoyed it.
The Elephant Crossing – IronbridgeLovely!
The Tilley Raven – ShrewsburyWe have had Sunday lunches in countless places over the years but this is by far the best lunch ever. Not only great value for money but the service is impeccable and the quality of the food is second to none. We have been twice now, with friends, and will be returning soon
The Tilley Raven – ShrewsburyRegular visitors here, very local to us, nice surroundings, nice staff & fabulous food
The Tilley Raven – ShrewsburyFirst visit but we will be back! 2 excellent Sunday Roasts - well cooked and well presented - followed by 2 great desserts Nice ambiance and great service Both my wife and myself enjoy our vegetables al dente which is just as well as some of our dining friends would have not enjoyed them
The Smokey Cow – TelfordVery tasty food! Enjoyed a wonderful family meal here and every morsel was well cooked, well presented and tasted delicious! The children's menu was varied and portions were generous and probably more than enough for our little ones.
The Tilley Raven – ShrewsburyThe roast dinner was amazing, huge portions ! Service excellent and great live music.
The Swan At Ironbridge – TelfordWe had an evening meal there last night and thoroughly enjoyed it - best meal we’ve had since we left home 3 weeks ago! Staff were very friendly and accommodating. The menu had a large range of gluten free options. Really enjoyed our time there.
The Malthouse – TelfordThe food was really nice. Authentic Mexican. food rather than the usual Texmex. Cocktails were really good. I liked the fact that we weren't rushed.
The Elephant Crossing – IronbridgeWe had a really great meal. There were 8 of us, lots of different dishes. All arrived hot , beautifully presented and delicious. Service we quick and efficient. Thank you for a really great evening.
The Queens Head – OswestryThe staff were very friendly and helpful. The food was delicious and hot. Reasonable priced food and a clean and tidy environment. We were a party of four and one meal was late getting to the table, due to a busy kitchen. Would definitely return.
