Warm welcome from Steve our host for the weekend who led us upstairs to our room , which was styled to the 70s/80s but spotlessly clean, tea & coffee facilities are available, room has ample room for a short stay and the bed was so comfortable, but the best was the view of the river. The pub itself had a... More

We had a meal. Extensive menu, favorable prices. jolly landlord and pleasant customers. We enjoyed the meal and felt that we had had a 'fun' evening. Nice position, above the river (no danger of flooding!)

We recently stayed 2 nights at. The Bird in Hand. We found it to be very good value for money. Room was comfortable, clean and warm. Breakfast was good, the ham and eggs were a particular favourite. Staff were welcoming and very friendly. There is a wide choice of meals served throughout the day, again tasty and good value for... More

Having had a terrible experience the night before at another pub in Ironbridge we set out to try and find somewhere that could bury that disaster once and for all. We drove past and decided to give it a go. We received a warm welcome and the 4 of us were soon seated in a spotlessly clean if a little... More

This is a pub with rooms dating back to 1774. Situated close to Ironbridge. The accommodation is entered through a separate entrance to the pub itself. The welcome was warm and friendly, and we immediately felt at home. The room we stayed in had very comfortable twin beds, TV, plenty of tea and coffee making facilities, and the shower room... More

Looking at the other reviews, I must have stayed somewhere different. Stayed in room one and it was appalling, dirty, dark, uncomfortable beds, awful bathroom. £230 deal for 3 nights, beware your main course cannot go over £8 or you pay the difference. Paid for one night and left.

We have just returned from a few days stay and have had a great time. All of the staff/proprietors we met are very friendly & Mick is a great asset and with many entertaining tales. Don't expect The Ritz, but you get all that is needed and at a very good price. The beds are clean and comfy, the breakfast... More
