Allison and her staff provided one of the best meals I’ve ever had. Duck croquettes were delicious. The fillet was tender and flavorful. Crème brûlée and cheese board were first rate. Highly recommend!

* A little gem in Telford
Exemplary service, wonderful food in a beautiful setting. Highly recommended. I would just say we almost missed the turning into the car park and one of our group drove past it 3 times so better signage would be useful.
We had a wonderful evening here.

First visit for us, great job on the building, very unique.
The service was excellent. We were given a complimentary taster of Pate, which was beautiful.
We both had soup as our starters.
My wife's main portion was very small, see photo, although she said it tasted very nice.
My tomahawk steak was a bit too fatty for my liking, cooked just right, so the actual lean part was just right. I asked for medium rare. The potato fritters that came with the dish were overcooked, and the whole thing didn't present very well. Our bill came to a whopping £127.00 for two of us.
Unfortunately I don't think we will go back.
However, if you haven't tried it, I would recommend going and supporting a local restaurant and making your own opinion.

We found this gem online. I can't praise the whole experience enough. From a very warm welcome, to the staff,the atmosphere and the food were all amazing. We began with a complimentary chicken liver patè amuse bouchè. Unusual venue of a previous Methodist chapel, the inside was sympatheticly decorated. The food arrived hot and well presented.

A great quality restaurant in Telford. An unusual setting of an old church which has been transformed into an aesthetically pleasing venue. The staff, whilst all young, have been well trained and are attentive to diners needs and requests.
The food was excellent, using quality meat products or fresh vegetables and well cooked. We were in a larger group and only a couple of issues being soup which wasn't very warm, which was taken and heated up, and the pork belly was a bit thin and subsequently was over cooked and dry. So other food was excellent and the team all commented on how good it was.
A bit pricey but worth a visit for something different.
Have returned several times, mostly as a large party, and the quality has remained each time. Attentive staff and quality food.

This is a gem we have only just found but will be back. On our night we had the option of small plates. 4 of us dining we had 9 different plates and everyone was great followed by 4 different deserts, we had nothing but compliments for each plate of food

This has for a long time been on my list of places to try, so I decided to book a table. I did this online and received a confirmation email.
It's located in Dawley and away from the town, you have fields and trees nearby. Pleanty of free parking.
I was greeted warmly on entering and took a table upstairs, it is a beautiful old building with lots of character. Tables are nicely spaced, so you have privacy, and it's not too noisy. The background music is tastful and just at the right level. On the far wall, a projector screens an old movie that adds to the atmosphere.
Staff and that applies to all, including the trainee, were excellent.
They have a good menu. I opted for a main and dessert.
The food was excellent, and I would class it as fine dining.
It was not cheap but not that expensive as you got an excellent, well presented meal.
Customer several was excellent.
They cater for gluten-free and have good options

Just WOW!!
Our first visit for our anniversary and we were greeted by lovely staff and shown to a table upstairs with a lovely view overlooking the restaurant. The food was stunning, not one criticism at all! It's so nice to have more interesting menu options like venison, pigeon and pheasant. We were offered complimentary tasters between courses which was a lovely addition. The staff were very attentive and timings were spot on. I can't wait to go back! Thank you so much for a wonderful evening!
