About The Elephant Crossing

The Elephant Crossing is a brand new Mexican bar and restaurant in the heart of Ironbridge serving delicious tapas-style dishes and cocktails. The name comes from a famous local event in 1932 when an elephant marched across the Ironbridge to promote Chapman’s Zoo-Circus. Expect an outstanding selection of drinks including show-stopping cocktails and a tasty selection of tequilas with Mexican street-style food prepared by Chef Martin Lewry who has returned to the UK after five years as Head Chef at the Harbour Club in Puerto Calero, Lanzarote.

Booked on line for 7pm Saturday evening,on arrival they had no record of our booking even though I had a confirmation email,no worries we found a table, we decided on steak, no rump , no sirloin, we left very disappointed,managed to have a meal in the swan pub which was excellent. Very disappointed.

Excellent bottomless brunch 24th May. Eve our hostess was a superb mixologist who kept her cool and was friendly and knowledgeable. Quality of cocktails good. Hilarious night, lots of fun, food and ambiance good. Definitely going again.

Can't recommend the Elephant crossing high enough. We booked on line ,which was simplicity itself, just a couple of clicks and job done. The venue is well laid out , and spotlessly clean . The level of service we received was second to none , when we visited, Chloe was our hostess, who was bright, bubbly and efficient,a real credit to the establishment. As for the food served, it was of top quality, very well presented with good portion sizes and very tasty. I personally would recommend the pulled pork Sunday roast and the surf and turf options. We would have no hesitation in visiting the Elephant crossing again the next time we're in Ironbridge and would happily recommend the venue to anyone.

Service was understaffed when a group of 8 high maintenance men arrived, i think they all marched through Restaurant twice to use toilet before finally leaving. The 3 dogs that were in Restaurant were better behaved. Our Mains were stone cold (Tacos & Chips) Nachos to start & Desserts were Lovely.

Food was delicious and well priced. A little disappointed there was no prosecco available, the bar didn't seem to be stocked very well.

Really disappointing experience. After waiting for 45 mins we noticed people who had come in afterwards were being served food. Obviously the manager who had taken or order had forgotten to put in the order. After complaining without any apologies the meal eventually arrived. To be very honest my taco vegetarian dish was delicious and very hot - just what I like. Unfortunately my partner who also likes hot food was pissed off as his steak bits in the tacos were cold - ??? We sent it back- they said we'll sort and after about 10 minutes it came back colder than ever. My partner rejected the food and although they didn't charge us for his meal we still spent £70 on a spoiled evening. You need to change your manager as she was rubbish!

We had a great experience at the restaurant. The staff were so friendly and helpful, the setting was good and there was a good buzz in the place. The food was really good. The Mojitos were perfect. We will be back.

We are 3 Ladies that Lunch and really enjoyed our endless cocktails and amazing food. The food was plentiful and tasty. The cocktails and food were served by lovely friendly staff who made our lunch quite special, attentive but not overpowering. Lovely friendly atmosphere! Would definitely go back and recommend to friends and family.

Really enjoyed our evening and the food was delicious. We were greeted by a lovely waitress that was so welcoming and her customer service was 10/10, it really set the tone of the evening. Could not fault our evening from start to finish. 100% recommend and we will be back!
