Carvery The carvery was amazing …plenty to choose from . Meat was lovely,vegetables hot and loads of gravy . Very impressed with everything. The restaurant was full which was clearly a good sign of what was to expect.
Lovely Amazing lunch with my daughter on 27th Feb. Both my daughter and I cleared our plates. Staff were very friendly. Would recommend to anyone in the local area.
Ok Bed and breakfast very good but was disappointed with restaurant orders steak and kidney pie no kidney and had to go to carvery to get vegetables been standing a long time
The Down Inn The Down Inn - this restaurant was good. We entered and we were told that the carvery is every day. (I was glad it was). We went into the carvery room and the chef served me pork. On the other side, there was all the vegetables and gravy etc. When I first tasted the pork, it was slightly cold but with a dash of hot gravy and it was perfect. The carrots were nice, lovely. Overall, it was good. The restaurant was cosy and clean. The service was decent.
An excellent place for quality food After being recommended and told how good the Down Inn was, we thought we would go and have Sunday lunch. Well, let's just say we weren't disappointed, and we will definitely be going back again in the near future. The service, the quality of food and the hospitality were all very good. And, thank you everyone for making our visit most enjoyable.
Perfect weekend getaway Perfect place for a nice chat good food and comfortable surroundings Hospitality first class Food delicious and plentiful Good selection of drinks Accommodation spotless and comfortable very quiet
Perfect overnight stay Great stay. Bed was comfortable and pillows very good. I am fussy about this!! Staff were so friendly and helpful. Breakfast was excellent. Dinner was equally good. Highly recommend staying here.
Excellent food and service Last minute booking but they were able to accommodate us. Nice variety of starters, main course and desserts. We both enjoyed our starters and my husband had the cod mornay whilst I had a carvery. Excellent. Really cannot fault the quality of the food and the service. Well done everyone 👏👏👏
Nice fresh meals all round We have visited this place a number of times to meet up with family, and it’s always absolutely lovely, can’t say anything at all to fault the food, it’s all very nice and freshly cooked, we all had something different and no complaints at all, the pudding are equally delicious. And just to add staff are all very professional and patient, thanks for a lovely visit.
Great Sunday carvery Great carvery - busy place. Must contradict recent reviews moaning about tepid food and the staff. Our Sunday lunches from the carvery were hot, the roasties crispy, the gravy perfect. The staff work hard because this place is busy, busy on a Sunday. If you're looking for good honest food in down to earth surroundings then try it. We booked for 1230 and within the hour the entire car park was full. That's the best recommendation.
Wonderful Place to Dine Inn Excellent Quality Food visited on a Saturday Evening We had the Sirloin steak with all the trimmings it was beautifully cooked just as we ordered staff are so friendly & Exceptional Manager Steve Credit to the whole team who makes The Down Inn The place to go for Carvery & orther Food on the menu
AMAZING CARVERY & VEGETARIAN SELECTION Warm friendly greeting on arrival Bar service good Friendly waitress with a sense of humor ( she could have been the landlady) Ordered 2 Carvey meals with meat and 2 Mushroom Wellington with carvery vegetables. Were told when the Wellingtons were ready at carvery Massive selection of hot tasty vegetables, crispy parsnips and crispy roast potatoes which so many places get wrong but these were just perfect. The Wellingtons came out on massive plates I asked for a Yorkshire with my Wellington meal and to my surprise the young chef who was very pleasant actually said " let me get you one that has not been sitting on the meat" what a change from other places, I thought was very thoughtful, The waitress had taken vegetarian gravy to the table Meat carvery plates were also well loaded Masses of food The desserts were amazing and cheap I have to I am well able to complain when things are not right, but this was just perfect Look forward to a return visit
Excellent We were here on Saturday the 21st I had organised a surprise 60th Party for my partner. Nikki was so helpful and attentive with all my questions and I cant thank her enough . The food on the evening was unbelievable fabulous quality and was enjoyed by everyone we had such a fabulous evening . We also stayed overnight in a lovely room with a comfortable bed and waking up to a fabulous English breakfast which was piping hot . I want to thank Steve and his wonderful staff for all their hard work you should all be so proud of yourselves. Thank you again x

ACCOMMODATION

Really great place to stay We have been to the Down Inn three times now and it is a first rate hotel. Lovely big bedroom with spacious bathroom both scrupulously clean. Well-stocked beverages and biscuits. Excellent food including a regular carvery with a good choice of vegetables and some really interesting specials. Good variety of breakfast choices. Staff were all friendly and helpful. All this at a reasonable price.
Country Inn Very welcoming staff and manager.Really spacious room with comfortable bed.
Would definitely recommend
Very big breakfast!
Carvery is lovely
Lovely views of surrounding countryside and in an ideal position for visiting the local area.
Lovely old pub and great food This is a lovely country pub with friendly staff and we had a lovely spacious room. We were going to wedding so didn’t eat there in the evening although the food looked great. The absolute jewel in the crown was the magnificent breakfast. Cereals, fruit yogurt etc and then a cooked breakfast made to order. All included in the room price which was excellent value.

Terrific restaurant with rooms Wow is all we can say. We stayed for one night and had a fabulous time. From the moment we got there until we left we couldn’t fault it. The staff were fantastic and when we weren’t sure as to which bottle of wine we wanted with dinner the lovely barmaid asked if we would like to try a little taste. What a nice suggestion. The food was amazing. Hubby had 10oz sirloin and I had the crispy pork in an amazing sauce. You will not go far wrong if you order this. The pork was very soft and succulent and the topping was as crispy as anything I have ever tasted. Both meals were amazing and the starters were amazing. I had the mushrooms and hubby had the prawns which we split between the 2 of us. The room was really lovely, extremely roomy with lots of wardrobe and drawer space. You have got to pay a visit to this place, whether it’s just for a meal (oh and forgot to say about their carvery) one of the best we have ever been to. Don’t take our word for it but we will definitely be back again and again. Please give it a try as you certainly won’t regret it. More
Lovely stay. Lovely country inn. Room was spacious and comfortable. Staff were very helpful and friendly. Breakfast was excellent and evening meals were good. The hotel and food were good value and we would definitely return. I would highly recommend.
Great over night stay Myself, husband and granddaughter stayed for 1 night,after going on the steam train at the Severn valley railway at Bridgnorth. The room that we stayed in was a good size, the double bed was comfortable and the bed for our granddaughter was comfortable as well. Couldn’t fault the food in the evening and the breakfast was great as well. So when ever visiting Bridgnorth again and need to stop overnight, we’ll make sure that we stay here
Couldn't Be Faulted Lovely large ensuite room with bath and all scrupulously clean. Large choice of meals: well cooked and good quality and a great carvery. Staff very friendly and helpful and all at a reasonable price. This is the second time we've been to the Down Inn and it was even better than before (if that was possible).
