Restaurant 1840 in Telford and Wrekin

I can highly recommend 1840 restaurant for morning coffee(stay in or take away) and breakfast /brunch. Great little rest stop for dog walkers or friends/ families walking along the Silkin way.

Went for anniversary meal, all staff friendly and obliging. Meal choices good. We had the pork belly and chicken parfait starters. Delicious and not too filling so we could enjoy our mains and finish them with out feeling too full. Mains we went off the specials menu. Was beef slow cooked and was delicious, large portion of beef. Didn't have room for dessert. Loved the building and what they have done to it. Looking forward to going back.

Fantastic evening, couldn't recommend enough.From arrival to chocolates on the bill everything was perfect- we were served by connor who couldn't do enough for us was very knowledgeable about the restaurant.To start I had the salmon- beautiful flavours and really enjoyed it. My husband had the pork and it was 'the best he'd ever had'For mains I had the chicken, which was made my the crispy chicken skin garnish. And my husband had the lamb and again he absolutely loved itWe only had one dessert, a baked alaska as we were both stuffed. It was amazing and we definitely managed to find space for it. We will be back!

WORST DINING EXPERIENCE EVER. If I could give a minus score it would be minus 5. From the statt the service was very poor. Whilst ordering the waitress burst into tears complaining about what a bad day she was having. Everything ordered took forever to arrive. Every course we were missing cutlery to eat it with. 3 out of the 4 meals were ridiculously salty to the point of being almost inedible (one actually was completely inedible). Overcharged us, and when queried (despite being nothing but polite), we were told to pack our things, leave and never return. Everybody around us were gobsmacked and totally confused. Manager even followed us out onto the car park to take my daughter's registration number, despite not having even spoken to him. appalling, AVOID LIKE THE PLAGUE.

We had a fabulous meal last w/e at this great restaurant! Was highly recommended for our rather special guests by reception staff at the Telford International Holiday Inn, and did not disappoint! We wanted somewhere that two famous celebrity chefs and another equally famous tv interior designer could have a relaxing evening with excellent food, and Jelly and her team pulled out all the stops to accommodate us! Well done all of you!

My wife and I have eaten here on a few different occasions and have never left without being completely over the moon with our evening. The food, wine, service, and atmosphere are always perfect. Would highly recommend.

My husband and I had a top class meal here tonight, the service was the best we have had anywhere for a number of years. The food was perfection, you must dine here you will not regret it. Thank you 1840.

If you want chain restaurants or chicken/kebab/pizza places, you are very well catered for in Telford. Unfortunately, there are far too few places like 1840. An absolute gem of a restaurant, serving fantastic food with fantastic service. This was my first visit and will definitely not be my last!

I brought my partner here last night having previously visited a few times with family and always had a lovely evening with great food. A perfect place to go for a special occasion. 🎉We both had the pork belly starter, sharing chateaubriand, finished off with the chocolate brownie and salted caramel dome. We could tell all the ingredients were high quality as everything just melted in our mouth! All the flavors worked well, well cooked and well presented. 👍The staff were so welcoming and attentive from the minute we stepped through the door. We sat in the top dining area which was nice and quiet and overlooked the rest of the restaurant.We had a lovely evening and left feeling very full!! Will definitely be coming back again. A hidden gem in Telford! 💎
