The Smokey Cow – TelfordWe booked for lunch on the day after boxing day after having had drinks the day before. Felt sorry for the staff because loads of people turned up without reservations and so they were understaffed. In the light of this, my comments and ratings are adjusted accordingly to reflect the difficult circumstances. First, the service. Understandably a bit of a wait due to how busy it was and staffing. However, it was not a problem getting topped up with drinks and requests were dealt with promptly and always a smile on server's face. Bravo. No rush to move us along either. Food- tasted great but could have been slightly warmer. Putting that down to staffing levels too. My wife's steak was slightly over but not too much. Menu choice was excellent, with only one or two things not available. Atmosphere- great. We had a nice clean table with plenty of space and there was a good vibe about the place. Our servers were very welcoming and always had a cheerful demeanour, despite the pressure they were under. VfM - prices were not OTT in my experience. There was a good range of prices and the mini fish and chips could easily have been priced higher. Would happily go back.
The Malthouse – TelfordBeen numerous times for drinks and music but decided to have food on last visit and oh my god was it worth the wasn’t too dear either will definitely dine here again
The Swan At Ironbridge – TelfordDelicious food. Every meal was tasty. Lovely relaxing atmosphere. Friendly staff. 5 of us ate, 2 were vegetarians. Thank you Our 5th visit this year
Water Rat – IronbridgeWhilst the food was generally good and some of the staff were helpful and friendly, there were so many things on the menu that weren’t available that my friend had to choose two different puddings before finding one they had, same with gin, and no ice! In a pub! Some of the seats could do with a clean and a new cover.
The Malthouse – TelfordFood stunning, service quick and attentive as well as friendly, a lovely evening all round:)
The Bull – ShrewsburyExcellent, very enjoyable meal and the staff were very good. We arrived 1130am xmas eve and the waitress seemed to be on her own but she coped really well even though it was a little busy. Bravo to her. We will return for evening menu.

The Bull – ShrewsburyWe went to the Bull for our Christmas dinner this year & it did not disappoint it was fabulous. The staff were great and nothing was too much trouble. Thank you so much. We will definitely be back.
The Bull – ShrewsburyWonderful Christmas day meal. Great service and atmosphere. Chestnut soup was fabulous and desserts lovely. Only criticism was that the vegetarian main was nowhere near as 'special' as last year. Both were wellingtons but last year's was wonderful with lovely veg but this year's tasted and looked like a cheese and potato pasty served with bland mash. I may be a bit sensitive about restaurants compromising on vegetarian meals but there really was no comparison to my meal in 2021. Everything else was wonderful.
The Tilley Raven – ShrewsburyExceptional Christmas dinner. Excellent food and perfect service.
The Tilley Raven – ShrewsburyTrue swan is a lovely pub , great views of the river , it was dark inside , the menu font was bad very hard to read , and not laminated so print was missing and menu was crinkled . The drinks where awful , no ice or lemon offered , terrible mismatched glasses , small measures of martini couldn’t taste it in the lemonade The food main course was brilliant well cooked and saved the day . We had steak burgers and fish all really well presented and tasted great The waitress was nowhere to be seen for at least 45 after we had finished our meals when she did arrive we ordered two apple pies which where badly presentated all broken up , completely tastelesss and to be honest for £7 appalling tbh , all in all the main meal worth going for but the rest bad

The Butchers Kitchen – TelfordDisappointing! Hadn't been for a long time. Far too long a wait for food to be served, not the best roast dinner we have tasted. Crackling did not arrive with pork. It would be useful to see the dates on previous reviews.
