Reviews of TGI Fridays - Telford
S. G.
Its was a busy Bank Holiday Monday lunch time for my visit to TGI. But the service was quick, and we didn't wait long for our meals. My meal itself was nice, but very small. I paid £15 for this meal, but it was more of a portion for 12 year old. It was just one small chicken breast cut in half. I was still hungry after I left, hence a 3 star review.
J. P.
We had very nice food and were well looked after by the staff.
It's in a prime location at Southwater - lots to do nearby (shops, cinema, walks)
Dont be put off by the price of the food, especially the burgers as the portions are huge.
We did pay £13 for a double vodka and diet coke though which I felt was a bit steep.
A. M.
Food was lovely, but the only reason for the 4/5 stars was the service time. It did take a while for the food to arrive
E. C.
Been here a couple of times now, food is always good and the staff are always friendly. My only criticism is the wait time when you're done with your food and you're waiting for plates to be removed and for the bill. This can sometimes feel like a lifetime, which I'm not sure why as on our last visit it was extremely quiet.
D. W.
Great quality food with good size portions, reasonably £££ for the area and plenty of room for a ♿️

We went for my wife's birthday last week and had a lovely visit as usual.. she had a slight fall and we left feeling a tad embarrassed..the past week we have been in contact with TGIs and today spoke to the Telford manager James who was lovely about the matter. The staff are always so cheerful and helpful and we look forward to our date days to go here. Just a huge thank you from us for again being so wonderful. Food always fresh and filling. And the cocktails go down a treat! See you soon guys.
I. Z.
Great Ambiance
Happy Staff; Great Singing Voice (Birthday Song)
Tasty Fresh Hot Food
Slightly SLOW on bringing the food out; but the Ribs were cooked to PERFECTION!
All in ALL - HAPPY Foodie Customer!
A. C.
My food order was lovely, but service was very slow. Quite pricey for amount served. Staff were very friendly.
A. S.
Went around 5pm, so not to busy. Wanted a long time for drinks an the food was sat on the service hot plate a long time before served to the table.
Food was good once it did eventually arrive.
B. B.
Didn't have half the menu, high chair was missing straps to strap my daughter in safely, seemed an inconvenience for the lasy to get a different one. Food was just okay, quite cold, wouldn't be rushing back to this one in telford any time soon
S. P.
Table was ready, prebooked, when arrived.
Extensive menu for both food and drinks.
Service was very good, food arrived promptly.
Drinks were renewed regularly.
Will come back.
c. D.
Following LiquorLab we came to TGI. Inside it is very spacious and the service has improved since the last time we came. We reserved a table as there was 6 of us. The waiters took our drinks order pretty swiftly when we arrived.
The food I had was amazing! I would recommend getting the full rack of ribs rather than the half and the meat was very tender and tasted great.
The toilet trip is quirky but fun with hopscotch painted on the floor.
l. w.
over a hour to get food then wrong order and one very burnt!
but our waiter took back and got new food with one free and 10% discount on rest so all in was ok wasn't hungry when left
j. p.
Brilliant place absolutely great for birthdays staff fab and service is really good
Although 2 things if ordering the steak order it under what you want it done
And the buffalo cauliflower was delicious I had it at a sharer and it was 11 small cauliflower florets in batter with 2 slivers of jalapeño and 2 dips this was £11 seriously not worth the money
E. L.
I am posting a 3 star because a few things on my visit had let my visit down, which is a massive shame as I had been before and it was far better.
Myself and my boyfriend decided to go for food and picked TGIs based on a previously good experience. We walked in, and were greeted by an index finger - because the girl at the front "desk" where you wait to be seated was on the phone. So we stood patiently waiting. While I appreciate someone had called ahead, there were other staff that walked past multiple times, without food that could have seated us on the way back to the kitchen.
We were seated and our order taken. I am a vegetarian and I appreciate that's not everyone's cup of tea, and not all venues need to cater for it. I did feel the menu was rather limited, however, I have come to expect it when eating out, so it wasn't a massive gripe. I chose the Bruchetta. As you can see from the pictures, it was heavily laced in Balsamic vinegar which ultimately ruined it. It should have been lighter or included in a little pouring jug/container so you can add your own. We also asked for the passion fruit martini sharer bowl. It was so full of ice, it tasted watered down and nothing like what it looked on the menu. Disappointing when it's £22.00! My main veg fajitas. Most of it was onion, a few bits of pepper and snap peas. It lacked flavour - the salsa, guacamole and hot sauce made it more edible. I also ordered a frozen strawberry daiquiri - it was very red in colour but not rich in flavour at all.
We spent over £80 on the sharer, 2 cocktails and meals off the set menu. If the food & drinks was close to how it was when I visited the last time, I would have been over the moon, but I felt we could have gotten a lot better for a lot less elsewhere. I was really disappointed this time over.
The atmosphere and decor is decent so not sure why it seems to have gone down hill.
J.
Had an amazing meal and cocktails were great! Lovely service from a waitress called Sarah :)
J. R.
Went for a meal on 12th of june and we were served by Carl D, he was so so so nice and such cool guy , always bringing us more n more drinks without us even asking he was always checking which was great! Absolute top bloke!
L. L.
Great atmosphere, food was delicious and fun place to be. Music was on point for the theme but a little loud.
Update March 2018, service now is much much much slower.
R. A.
The food and drinks we had were beautiful. Jordan was excellent and really attentive, paid excellent attention to us and was particularly helpful with my partners allergies. Had a really nice evening with a great atmosphere. Highly recommend!
B. J.
Good service and food, there were a few things out of stock, but it was the day normal day after a busy new year's eve weekend followed by a bank holiday so that you could forgive that. Our server Jay was very helpful and was great with our children.
J. B.
Attended here for my partners birthday on 05/03/2022 with another couple as surprise luckily we got seated at Wagamama was 1hr wait for table. We order drinks straight away 10 minutes later we ordered food all together didn’t think the food would almost 40 minutes to come out ! We had to rush our food down us because we had cinema at 8 and obviously with the time being 7:45 we wasn’t happy. Nevertheless we ate our food which tasted great asked for the bill to which the waiter went off and didn’t come back to us for 10 minutes he decided to do another tables bill as they walked up to him directly !
Poor customer service !
m.
First time visiting and have to say the food was fantastic! My son had a burger, I had the chicken fingers and my partner had the steak fajitas. We all really enjoyed the food and the staff were lovely
T. h. b.
Brilliant food and service as always
C. 1.
Delicious food with good portions- always get your money's worth. The staff is awesome- friendly & professional, making you feel right at home!!
E. S.
Let's just say I'm not returning any time soon, waited ages for food & when it arrived it was lukewarm, lot of plated up meals sat on the counter waiting to be taken to tables. Lot of money for what you get
N. B.
Had a great time feeling American for the night, stuffing my face with a humongous burger and fried chicken to start. Went out with a bang going for a massive milkshake. All delicious, indulgent and hugely satisfying!! Sometimes you've just got to..!
R. C.
Always good food and good selection of lagers and cocktails, great selection of food so happy days
S. L.
Good food slow service!! Expensive but worth the visit, gets busy so book !
M. P.
Food was just superb, service was really good and the staff was nice and polite.
G. H.
Great atmosphere. New waiter was lovely Duncan 🙂 burger a little overdone, but yummy cocktails 🍸
K. G.
Slow service, avergar meal. Now that there are lots of independent street type vendors all serving good food, this tgi needs to raise its game so it is something special.
J. E.
Great food, Great Staff
Served by Jules, she was lovely and made our visit awesome
d. b.
Friendly staff, Great service even tho was quite busy great meals and portion size
G. C.
Service was excellent meal was amazing and the refillable drinks for the kids is a God send. It's a little expensive but you get what you pay for all in all we all enjoyed our time there and was all full afterwards
S. R.
Was greeted by a lovely man on the door yesterday not sure what his name was, he was wearing a red shirt and created a great start to our time there. Asked for any allergies and if we had a special occasion for the night. And our waiter jay was amazing went above and beyond to give us an amazing time.
J. O.
Great food and quick service. Only downside was the refillable coke not being available when we visitied
M. H.
Great service lovely food, very busy might be good to book we got lucky. I had sesame seeded chicken , my wife had ribs. lovely food, generous portions. Great value refillable colas too.
P.
Crackin food, James was a great laugh and made sure everything was perfect. Thank you James!
G. Z.
Remarkable place, best Bbq ribs I've ever had, highly recommended for everyone who likes meet :)
G. W.
Best TGIs I've visited in a long time. Customer service excellent, food amazing, nothing was too much trouble. Great to see there are still TGIs who are true to their roots. Would travel further to visit here again as my local TGIs has lost any remnants of actually being a fun place to visit with great customer service and food.
A.
Nice place,friendly staff but not much of a selection for vegetarians.
R. F.
Upon arriving we was quickly dealt with and taken to our table food was a little longer than expected it tasted very good though only downside was they put half of the antarctic in my drink 😂
A. S.
Great burger and ribs and delish fries
Not to mention the tasty shakes!
M. D. D.
TGIFridays always delivers with quality, fresh and good value meals. It's a great for family outing. Amazingly today they offered us free baby food...
L. H.
Our family had a really fun time, due to friendly, accommodating staff and a bartender that was fun and full of bartending tricks my son thought he was ace. Food was good and drinks and deserts to make you go wow! We are already planning another trip here.
L. S.
2nd time visiting and much quieter this time round. Waiting on staff seemed much less attentive and vigilant but the food was still incredible
B. P.
Served by Jay today who was really lovely and although really busy, we could see he was attentive to all the customers. Yummy food as always, makes it much nicer when the staff are pleasant.
S. B.
Food was delicious staff were inviting and friendly, our waitress was great a real nice pleasure.. place was busy without being to over crowded. Will definitely be back
C. M.
Absolutely fantastic service by Karl here. Polite, informative and all round top lad. Meal was great too despite unfortunately (I suspect) suffering from supply chain issues.
Kyle is a credit to the company and I hope he gets the recognition for it 🙏
J. D. (. D.
Good atmosphere, really enjoy our time here, food & drinks are great 👌🏻
L. S.
what an experience!!
"Jay made my birthday dinner special" were the words my 6 year old used tonight.
a little birthday card was on our table when we arrived, Jay came and introduced himself and gave our son LOTS of attention. He was quick to recommend and explain menu options and made a big fuss of our boy.
Just before dessert, a group of employees arrived at our table and told our son to stand on his chair. they then announced his birthday to everyone and chanted the TGI birthday song to him, before presenting him with ice cream with a birthday candle. His face was a picture!
What an incredible experience, and outstanding service from Jay and the team.
Food was BLOODY BANG ON too
M.
Brilliant service! Food is so delicious and good sized portions! Bubblegum daiquiri is to die for!
J. B.
Average food but good service. Ordering a side of onion rings turned into a Saw puzzle.
K. P.
Great service and meal. Service was quick and the food was hot and delicious!
T. B.
This TGI Fridays doesn't live up to the usual standard of other locations I have visited, with this being a new location I expected more. Service was slow despite the restaurant being only slightly busy. Our waiter also put through an incorrect order, resulting in food we had not asked for being ordered. Food, solid, as normal with any TGI's you can visit. Telford's TGI's suffers from a few issues that stop it from achieving the same 5* reviews that I have given at the more mature TGI Fridays restaurants, but I am hoping it will improve in time.
L. F.
We had a great time with the family food was great but I felt a little expensive. Staff were very friendly and helpful. We would go again
S. D.
Went for my son's 15th birthday, seat, ordered and ate with zero issues. Was served by Jay who was polite, helpful and attentive. Has the manager make an appearance as my partner has a food allergy (a very mild one) and he went above and beyond to ensure that there would be no issues. Again top service. Food wise, quite nice although not as enormous as I remember TG's portions being, maybe portions have shrunk.....maybe I need to have smaller portions?? Either way, nice hour 1/2 or so and left feeling looked after and well fed (dessert portions haven't Shrunk 🤣😂👍)
S. W.
Just dropped in for pre dinner cocktails, excellent and better than the other place 👌
R. T.
Had a fab meal out here, love the style, the food & the cocktails 🍸
d. h.
We was ignored by a member of staff a couple times while waiting by door which prompted me to ask is this a wait to be seated restaurant.. the gentle nudge helped instead of standing like lemons. But I must say the meal was above the level of rock cafe
c.
It's one of them places where when I originally did tgi year's ago it appeared new and refreshing compared to the other restaurants they seem to have lost there way with certain fundermentals. Cocktails are medioca can get better else where the food the main was nice the starter being jacket skins was over cooked and had to be sent back. Service was very slow and when considering desert at the end the waitress reminded us on more then one occasion that our table time will be ending very shortly which felt frustrating as if they was more organised then the time wouldn't have become a barrier. Tgi used to feel welcoming and a nice relaxed night where you could soak up the atmosphere and the decor and feel like a child in a candy shop with he cocktail menu and the food it doesn't have that sparkle any more and it's almost like they don't care about your custom I would say the best thing was how they did the happy birthday cheering. Value for money average at best will i rush to return I doubt it.
G. V.
Server was polite, courteous, friendly, helpful, and professional. Food was OK. Children's meal was tiny, especially as it was from the "Major League" part of the kids menu. Burgers looked a bit better than a McDonald's so not sure it was value for money.
E. N.
Yummy food + amazing service from Kelly and Jay✨
H. C.
Service was amazing. Our server was Bethan. She was on the ball with our orders, within 20 minutes our food was served. Nothing was too much trouble (drink orders- even going out of her way to get us some water for our deserts), always around when we needed her.
After a couple of visits and not having the best service, Bethan’s changed my opinion- will definitely be returning again now
H. W.
Jay & Charlie (the trainee) were fabulous tonight even though it was so busy & they were rushed off their feet. They made our experience super special as it was my partners 30th. Have no idea how they stay happy & positive in high demanding situations. Did not see any of the workers stand around. Even though they were busy & have to manage a lot of tables, they still came up to the tables more than once...even more than twice in that fact.
The food was great!
Food is better than Frankie & Bennys as they have similar style.
Very clean & there is animals balloons for kids.
I havent been to TGI Fridays in at least 7 years which was in Birmingham and there was a big difference customer service. First time visiting the telford one which is less than a minute from our house & won't be the last!
All 11 of us was super happy with our visit!
m. h.
Food was good, the wait for the food was not. More staff needed
H. K.
Excellent food, brilliant service. Our server was James and he was great, made sure we had everything we needed without being around too much. Would definitely visit again!
L. T.
Lovely meal. Sesame chicken strips to start were delicious!
M. J.
Staff were unsure of how to get me the ingredients of foods; they were happy to provide the list of 14 allergens; however, I have anaphylaxis reactions to ingredients that are not one of the 14.... Please make your meal ingredients available either online or in the restaurant....
C. D.
Music loud so order was wrong, not waitress fault . 85 decibels is not needed in a restaurant. Friendly staff. Table could have done with better clean .
M. C.
A big shout out to Sarah who served us. Well done. We had a lovely time on our visit
J. J.
Nice food, nice atmosphere, but staff are a little light footed and a little hectic. They spilt a drink on the couple next to us, and took a little time to get drinks. I had to order green tea twice to get it
S. N.
5 Star Review for 1 reason only!
Jay!!
We visited last night, a group of 8 of us. Food was nice although there were a couple of mistakes with our order and food bought out at different times etc. The sort of thing ordinarily you would probably roll your eyes at. But it didn't seem to matter as we had a waiter called Jay who just made the whole experience light and entertaining. He was an absolute star and breath of fresh air. Definitely the guy that lit up the room and totally should be running the place. Just the right can do attitude.
r. w.
I don't think this restaurant is as good as Manchester TGI, does not have the same magical feel. Food was good and the place easy to find with plenty of parking right next door. Slow service though. Don't think it was worth travelling from Walsall and sadly the Walsall TGI is just the same. Think we will stick to major city TGI's
J. C.
The vegan/vegatarian options were...OK... not great. And the restaurant was freezing. It would've been fine if it was busy or you're a meateater. If you're not I'd advise going round the corner to Novello lounge
e. m.
Pre-booked a table through the app and there was no issues once we arrived. The staff were very friendly and welcoming. The food was good and quick so there wasn't a long wait. We were allowed to stay as long as we wanted to and were not forced out so would recommend this place. 👌🏿
D. L.
Came in today for lunch with my partner and little girl, it was the first time we had been out to a restaurant for a while, we were greeted by a gentleman at the door who’s name was James. He was very polite and knowledgeable and made us feel very welcome. I havnt had such great service in a long while and just wanted to say a big thankyou!
K. C.
Great place and great food. Service was quick and smooth and overall excellent time. Staff member has to be applauded, Jay. Super friendly and overall great personality. Made my mums night!
A.
Great food, great service. Busy, but no delay in being served. Well done to all of the staff.
S. M.
Food wad delicious. Thankfully we booked a table in advance as it was super busy! Cocktails were amazing 👏
s. s.
The food was delicious and the staff went above and beyond. I will definitely be returning to this establishment. Good vybz, good food and good company
P. “. M.
The staff and service was brilliant, they went out they way to make it special for my partner as it was their Birthday and made her a dessert that she could have due her allergies. They surprised us both with that one. Would very happily go back here if the chance came up.
s. p.
Friendly staff who couldn't do enough for you great choice of food and drinks with a relaxed atmosphere our order didn't take long and was hot as everything is cooked to order if you have never been its worth a try.
A. W.
Always loud and welcoming, a great experience and will always make sure I have full access
S. R.
Always enjoy the diner vibe, the old school music, and the tasty food...not cheap, but enjoyable
A. B.
Lovely night out, food great as always. Covid safety measures were clear and well maintained by staff. Appeared that some customers were pushing the rules a bit though, clear that the 6 people sat at the table behind us were not of the same household.(as guidelines stated at the time) Difficult for staff to manage that though so not a reflection on them.
J. F.
Great food. Service was very good. Staff were friendly and attentive
A. E.
Not the greatest place I've been 😕
Waitress tried her best tho👍🏻
Drinks slow🙃
Food slow🙃
Not the best experience. 🤔
But we made the best of it as food tasty enough 😬
Slightly expensive too.
🙈
T. C.
Was a Sunday afternoon so pretty quiet, but do not accept walk in and have to book on the app, and by the time sorted the next available time was 45min later however they did get us in, food was nice but nachos were not overly warm. Nice service
D. j.
Nice for a drink but food is poor and expensive nothing on the plate
C. S.
Very relaxed atmosphere.
Food was great (Nachos, Cheeseburger)
Couldn't fit desert even though they looked lovely.
Refil drinks were great, empty glass taken and refilled without needing to ask.
Will definitely be revisiting 😀
R. T.
Really enjoyed the meal, super cool interior vibe. Only one downside for me, the tables are a little close, with how busy they get its to be expected I suppose just a little off putting for me.
M. D.
Had Saturday lunch here, service was decent but a little slow, I chose the sirloin steak which was fantastic, but with what came with it although was good im not sure whether it warranted the price. Eating here early morning I can imagine the evening experience and atmosphere would be much greater. Beer was excellent although like the menu extremely pricey, like people say you get what you pay for.
M. D.
Had a great meal out at TGI. Our waitress Ione honestly made the night with how attentive and lovely she was. The food was great and the atmosphere was lovely, perfect place for a chill night out.
T. V.
Took the family. I'm in a wheelchair, everything fully accessible, good service, I recommend.
A. K.
I've yet to eat here but it's a pretty cool place to swing by, grab a comfortable bar stool with friends or ya partner and enjoy a cocktail lovingly created by the cocktail connosieurs 😁
A. B.
Lovely friendly polite staff, delicious food
C. H.
Table service was very good. We had an excellent waitress who was quick and attentive.
Shame about the bar service though which was very poor. Staff hanging around cutting lime slices oblivious to the customers waiting for drinks, and not enough staff to serve drinks. They seemed indifferent to customers waiting, blaming it on a shift change.
They could learn a lot from Browns, where there are dedicated bar staff ready to take orders.
Food fairly good, although the pizza was burned on the bottom.
L. R.
'My servers name was Jay N and he gave me and my family the best experience we could have wished for. We had a busy day and my children were tired and hungry, as soon as we had sat down he made them feel special, asking them directly what they wanted and made sure it came out as fast as possible. My son has special needs and he finds it hard to speak to people, usually hides, but with Jay he was waving and saying hi each time he went past and Jay made sure to always respond even if he was busy which is the reason why I am leaving this message. Anybody that makes my son smile makes me smile. I will definitely ask for this server again. Thank you for making our meal an enjoyable one. '
N. N.
Tonight was my first time at TGI Fridays and I was absolutely delighted with everything. The staff, from the moment we entered until the second we left could not be more attentive. The food was great too. We will definitely be going back again. Our waiter was Sascha and he was very professional.
A. M.
Booked a table easily online 2 weeks before the date. Confirmed by email the day before that we were coming. Arrived at booked time, table was ready. Waitress was very friendly and helpful. Ordered our drinks and then food. Drinks came out pretty quick and food also fairly quickly. We all enjoyed our meals. Waitress kept checking if we needed anymore drinks etc.
Really enjoyed the evening. Food was lovely.
TGIs isn't a quiet place. So bare that in mind if you haven't ever been and like a "quiet" meal. But as I've been before. All was good.
P. A.
Been twice now - and happy with both visits.
Had to wait slightly longer than expected for the food to arrive - but don't mind when it's tasty.
Friendly staff (loved that the bar staff said goodbye as we exited - especially as we never saw them during the meal. Nice customer engagement touch) - atmosphere is nice also with all the 80s memorabilia.
Sure we'll be back in the future.
B. E.
Staff were very professional Happy and smiling. Good value for konya too.
C. E.
Lovely food! Good sizes, hot and very tasty. great atmosphere and decor! Only negative is this was our second visit and the second time something was missed off/forgotten and getting a refill drink is a little slow. Other than that lovely place for families 😁
G.
Fantastic food and buzzing atmosphere! our servicer for the evening Kelly was very kind and complimentary to me and my date, would recommend this place to anyone!
V. “. B.
Loved the place and what they have done with it to accommodate the new norm. Sophie has been great in the way she communicated and serviced us on that day. We were very well looked after and we'll definitely go back again. Highly recommended for a night out or lunch with the loved ones and family.
M. T.
Food was sound usual burger grub, not hard to cook a decent burger but this place nailed it tbh, reasonable price & we both liked the random decor.
C. H.
I went here with my daughter yesterday. Really nice staff. My daughter had half a rack of ribs which she really enjoyed. I had the new vegan burger, this is the nicest non meat burger I've tried. I also had a mocktail mojito which was really nice. It was a bit cold in there, would have been nice to have been warmer. Also the dip that came with the Vegan burger had honey in it, which isn't vegan.
A. M.
Nice place and atmosphere, though the constant "singing" (more just loud shouting) happy birthday gets annoying.
Food was mediocre nothing great.
J. a.
Ok, good for an experience. I found it too loud and busy. Good decor.
I. K.
Manager is top notch. He knows what he’s doing. Made our stay a whole lot better. Service was fantastic. Sasha made sure we were feelin alright all the time. Food was nice except the nachos but manager made sure to fix it real quick.
J. K.
Great place people very friendly, food fantastic and they were very helpful as I am allergic to cheese so they went way beyond just listened they served me separately to make sure nothing was contaminated !
B. P.
Lovely experience, even though they are understaffed, we were still seen to promptly and polity. Always a pleasure to eat here.
T. E.
Amazing food, great portion sizes and wonderful service! Rachel is very knowledgeable about the menu, as well providing information about drinks that were safe to drink, due to one of the party members being allergic to pineapple! Also provides an amazing amount of customer service and has a welcoming personality! Thanks!
K. W.
What a pity, it's a great place with good food but being such a new opener I feel like the staff are still finding their feet. The staff are very polite and helpful but the service is slow. Took about an hour after our starters to get our food and the starters took just over 40 mins to come out, and the place wasn't even half full. I'm sure they will get quicker but at the moment I can only give 3 stars. We've visited since and it was empty and still very slow.
Edit: we've visited again more recently and it was still incredibly slow and since they are running such a reduced menu with covid we actually walked out and went somewhere else.

My son loves it. Covid precautions were good, service was excellent and food good as always. Decent Vegan burger and the did Nacchos with no cheese or sour cream. Just lacked the normal atmosphere of being busy/full which wasn't TGIs fault.
S. F.
Lovely and fab atmosphere but ladies toilets were disgusting..
O. E.
Upon arrival we were shocked as to how busy it was given that it was new years day and it's because of this that I assume it took us a while to be greatest and sat down.
After a while our waitress came to take our drinks and meal order's. She returned shortly after with the one drink but the others didn't come until after the starter's came and I had to remind them that we'd not yet had them.
The food itself was good overall and dispite the issue with the drinks the waiting staff were also good and were friendly enough.
g.
It was Ok, I wouldn't return in a hurry. Living off its past branding, was once the go to place.
P. B.
Mixed. Some food very good but had better TGIs elsewhere. Initial drinks order very slow but worst issue was being served celery for the blue cheese dip with dirt on it.
J. H.
Great service, fresh and tasty food. A tad pricey, but the service provided by Jay made it worth the spend.
G. R.
Great evening. Food was amazing and the kids loved the balloon animals. Unfortunately they needed the table back before we had chance to get dessert. Shame they didn't allow us more time for the party size. But we'll be back. 😀

We went to TGI Fridays for my son and daughters birthdays. The food was nice but the service wasn't. We felt ignored we didnt get any free refills on our drinks the staff we running about you couldn't get their attention. Our mains were bought to the table before our starters were cleared and the waitress continued to push these huge plates onto a very full table almost knocking over our drinks. Its a shame because the staff are very pleasant when you do get their attention. TGI Fridays employ more staff please to make it a pleasant experience.
A.
Went on a Saturday evening and got the nicest service ever, our server Jay was attentive and so lovely , the food was amazing and had a great time.
C.
Went here for a date night with partner. Really pleased with the service provided. Very friendly staff and not miserable faced like a lot of waiters can be. We had one slight problem when paying because I was using vouchers but apart from that can't fault it.
Also don't expect your normal food from here. For example coleslaw wasn't like normal coleslaw it has other ingredients in it to make it exotic. It's nice to find somewhere or doesn't just do the normal food.
A. G.
Lovely meal today. Waitress was very observant on drink refills etc. Polite and not over bearing. My favourite is the sesame chicken which was cooked to perfection.
J. M.
Great service, brilliant food, overall good experience
b. r.
Overrated. Burgers are 3/5. Good looking but not too much taste. Service was excellent, the place looks very well 5/5 for that. Only tried the burgers, nothing else. Maybe the other things on the menu are better.
M. F.
Went here for my Daughter's birthday. And We had younger children with us too. It was amazing!! So Many offers and delicious cocktails for your birthday group. They even did my vegetarian granddaughter a meatless cheese burger and took the price of the meat off!! They sing to you when it's your birthday. Great fun. Loved it so much I'm going back for my birthday.
W. F. L.
Quite good for a large group.
P. B.
The food was nice, if not a little overpriced...but you expect that with TGI Fridays.
Biggest issue today was the blatant understaffing...its a Bank Holiday, and it took ages for someone to take our order, not because it was busy but there just wasn't enough staff. Then we waited 10-15 minutes for the bill, which, considering the parking for this restaurant is charged, isn't really acceptable.
The drinks for the 4 of us came in dribs and drabs, first one drink, then a few minutes later another two drinks, then another few minutes later for the final drink. I personally had the refillable soft-drink, which was refilled just once because I couldn't find anyone to refill it.
As I said, the food was nice, but the overall experience and cost just left an overall "meh" taste in my mouth...
D. B.
Great customer service, staff were really friendly. Food took a little while but not an excessive amount of time. When it did arrive the food was certainly worth the wait.
D. W.
Great reception, lovely environment & lots of choice.
The only thing we struggled with was the speed at which food was brought out. The server was clearing the table for the people I was with, before i had finished my starter. And as I took the last mouthful the mains arrived! No time to breath between courses.
We did feel very rushed...I would choose another location to eat in future, and maybe pop here for a plate of chips and a cocktail.
J.
Wonderful Welcome! And we where late for the reservation too. Great team work from all of the staff. The food was delicious and the service was excellent. Food cooked perfectly. Cant wait to go back..... 😁😆😃
R. M.
Ex ellent service, service was a little off beat but it didn't spoil it. Will.be back.
E. H.
Overpriced compared to other TGIs. The quality of food is not the same as in other TGIs.
G. B.
Good options for vegetarians, tasty food. Nice atmosphere. Had to wait almost an hour to be even offered drinks - which when they turned up 30 mins later tasted like tonic water as the syrup in the machine had ran out. Staff were apologetic about the drinks but soon forget about you. Service is good when you get it....but it's extremely slow.
T. T.
Been a while since we visited a TGI Fridays restaurant, have had some poor experiences, this one however was a delight, we had a fabulous meal and all four of us had a good time. 👍we will be back next time we are in the area.
M. B.
Given it just opened very happy with the staff and speed of service was very looked after by one waitress who was very kind. Would come back here again with friends or family.
Was very impressed on the quailty of their food from starters to there main meals. Easy corrected if they have a problem or short on an ingredient.
Their chargrill chicken was very nice minus the taste of the burnt parts from the grill its self but given it still new i will be happy to try it again in the future.
S. K.
Great service and always good food and wine.
E. M.
Staff were nice and friendly and the food arrived quickly with no problems as we anticipated at least 1 error between the 11 of us that went. Also due to the fact it was one of our birthdays some staff came out and sung a birthday song and gave the birthday person a free slice of birthday cake.
S. F.
Staff are absolutely lovely very friendly and approachable , food is absolutely amazing as are the drinks. Came for my partner's birthday and would come again for sure highly recommend place absolutely love the feel of the restaurant too a taste of America in the UK love it.
N. B.
Unfortuately we were not overly impressed. Starter took over an hour to arrive. The mains were exttremely dissapointing. 2 sets of ribs were massively overcooked to burnt black and only tasted of charcoal and the steak did not arrive with the salad.
That said, we did not complain and had a nice night. The staff were so apologetic as they identified the issues as well. We will give them another try because of the staff, not for the food. Still worth 3* though.
l. B.
Although our food was good, the steak was over cooked. My cutlery had, hard food still stuck on it and it took 5 minutes wait to get new ones while my food went cold.
The worst thing tho was the toilets.
The first urinal, was backed up and full. Then while I was using the next urinal (the cubical was engaged) it backed up and I had to stop so it could go down or I'd have got wet feet.
Although, service and food was good ( I can deal with medium/well not medium) the cutlery and toilets was horrible.
And the stupid birthday songs right in front of you is actually annoying.
S. H.
Great service. Great food. A+
S. B.
The food here is always brilliant! When we got home we realised we'd been overcharged by about £17 for one meal - we obviously didn't check the bill properly! When I got home and realised, I called the restaurant and explained. The next day someone called me back as they'd had a look and found the error. They refunded my card over the phone and the cash was back in my account the next day. Really helpful, can't fault them. The food is always so good and we'll definitely go back. The birthday cake was brilliant too!
R. W.
A good visit! Food was Tasty and our server Jay was very enthusiastic and friendly, despite the restaurant suffering from a lack of staff.
H. W.
Not particularly cheap but delicious and generous portions. I ordered an appetizer as a main with 2 sides and couldn't finish it all! Nice atmosphere and friendly staff. Their app let's you save points each time you visit which can be redeemed for various items on the menu.
M. M.
Food excellent, great polite service. My only gripe being that the gent's toilet floor was flooded and a warning sign inside the toilets barely addressed the issue.
I mentioned it to the staff and later saw a person who I assumed to be a manager check the toilets but nothing else seemed to happen. The floor was flooded. Don't expect to need wellies to use the loo.
J. R.
Compared to first visit there. Not good.
Waiting to be seated and for food took 45 mins. Watching our food cooked on the side going cold but no one served it to us.
Finally came... partners main did not and they said that would take longer. Starter of onion rings was cold so asked for replacement. Got onion rings back but they had been re fried and were greasy and burnt but now Hot at least. Tucked into my main then a few mins after my partners arrived. My burger was luke warm only by this time. Partner said she enjoyed her main. Between all the complaining and talking to manager about delay and cold onion rings being re-fried not an enjoyable experience.
Did get 25 percent discount in the end so perhaps they did care after all. I think they need better employees dedicated to their jobs and perhaps service could improve...
F. “. M.
Amazing polite staff, plenty of vegan options
G. S.
The atmosphere was great, the food was great the service from Beth was fantastic, they where quite busy but well staffed, the only reason I gave it 4 stars instead of 5 was the waiting time! Plenty of tables free counted at least 15 that were set ready! Took a good 20 mins before being seated and being disabled with crutches wasn't a good experience!
L. B.
Good food. Good service. Very slow bar though.
E. L.
A great place with friendly staff. A mix of experiences positive.. welcoming staff friendly chatty staff overall and know the menu well although some waitresses never offer refills so be warned you may have to go the the bar... the bar people are always great about it though
D.
Me and my friend decided to visit after walking past a few times during a weekend trip. We had a server called Rachel W. She was friendly, helpful and the food was fantastic. We would definitely visit again if in the local area.
N.
Really nice place, good food. Our server, Kelly was so sweet and kind. Would recommend.
R. H.
Service v good. Food choice ok.
A. H.
Great food, even better cocktails
Bit of a wait but it's worth it
Staff are really friendly
L. 7.
Really good service. Welcoming & clean.
S. J.
The servers were so helpful and friendly. Food arrived fast and was perfect. No faults at all.
T. P.
Went out with my partner for a meal. place is nice would go back service isn't the fastest the food is really nice! Bit pricey cost £50.56 for two and no refills on drinks or didn't have dersert.food took a bit of time.lovely burgers
A.
Really nice inside, good food, the constant happy birthdays are annoying and the staff are definitely not payed enough to do them but in general good with a friendly atmosphere
B. C.
Food was great, took nearly 3 hours from start to finish for the meal though.
K. P.
Food wasn't bad but very sparsen. Staff were friendly and helpful. Took a long time to get the food and the place was nearly empty for a half term week day! Place needs a bit of a refurb or clean. May go back but not in a hurry!
R.
Superb customer service with Ray as our server, made fab recommendations for our meals and was so patient with me ordering my drink! I hope management actually read the reviews cus he's the best server I've seen and had in a long time!
b.
Steak arrived and had to send it back because it was cold, the wife had the same problem with her chicken, my food also came without the blue cheese dip that I'd ordered and I had to ask for it 4 times.
I saw one member of staff drop 5 chips on the floor, look at them then leave them! Another member of staff slipped on one looked at it and did nothing, they were still there (well trampled by this point) an hour later when we left!
J. S.
First time visiting food was AMAZING! prices are higher than what i would normally pay BUT you pay for what you get and thats an amazing meal. Will defo be coming again. Staff also very friendly and helpful. Food prep time was also quick.
D. N.
I shouldn't like this place, but I do. Everything about it should wind me up. It's loud, invariably crowded, it's a chain restaurant, it's menu is mass-produced and stunted, It's like McDonald's on speed. But I've not had a bad meal here. Sometimes you just want something a bit naff, and to get your gob around some ribs or make a gimp of yourself by getting burger juice down your shirt. The staff are fine, if a little dozy sometimes. I know every one of these places around the country (and most likely the planet) are identical, but there's something familiar about that. You know what your going to get. Vouchers and deals are plentiful so you can get a cheap one or a free pudding every now and again. The thing is, unlike most chain restaurants, it isn't pretentious and doesn't pretend to be something it isn't. It's a burger joint with a fake taxi outside (arf) and a Harley Davidson for the kids to take pictures on. Embrace the madness, rather than paying more for less at the coal bar and grill around the corner, which thinks it's far better than it actually is.
C. B.
Very good quality food but not enough in the menu part compared with price. Maybe they pretend to serving something special but is nothing special. If you want to eat special you should go in Wuhan Market. For click and colect after colecting time they invited me to wait at entrance without a sitting chair so a customer lady confused me with an usher or security guy. At Nandos for example if you have to wait for colecting, you are invited to sit down inside, even in lockdown period and they give you a free drink.
E. B.
We had a server named Ray, he was lovely and quick service times. I asked about his badges and how they are achieved so he took the time at the end of our meal to explain each badge and about how he got them and what they mean. Very please with our meals and Ray.
S. D.
Typical TGI food was all v nice, went on a Thursday at 5pm ish not overly busy but still had to wait for service/food. Think there was a problem with orders. Staff v apologetic and helpful. Also gave discount of final bill without me asking. All in all a good meal out 👍🏼
R. B.
Love the food at tgi Fridays always book a table they are always busy lovely freindly atmosphere staff are amazing can't do enough for you .
W. W. (. B.
Ray our wait staff was awsome! Food fabulous. Chicken tacos omg.....explosion of flavours. Steak cooked to perfection. We were going to try another restaurant at southwater, but they had no booths available for an hour.....so we went back to our old favorite TGI....even on a thursday lmao.
M. O.
Normal TGI's ok but nothing special
B. B.
Excellent meal and great service from Kelly. I’m a big eater and can’t argue with the quantity nor quality of the food.
G. E.
Great place staff so helpful and pleasant, very relaxing...would recommend it
T. C.
Ate here last night with colleagues from work, all in all a good experience, standard TGI’s really. The initial drinks order took a little longer than expected however once our food order was taken it came pretty soon afterwards.
I had the boneless hot chicken bites to start followed by the TGI chicken burger with added mario fries that came with a little bit of cheese and what they call a bacon crumb, I’d say they aren’t worth the £2 upgrade.
The waitress that served us was friendly and knowledgable about the menu and cocktails, the slightly slower than usual service wouldn’t put me off returning to this restaurant or another TGI’s in the future.
T. S.
Lovely place. Clean and well maintained. Waiter was attentive and couldn't have been helpful. Food was good. Lovely atmosphere. Interesting decor. Would recommend and would visit again 😊
D. D.
Waited to be seated for a while as 2 team members seemed to be struggling with seating a party in front of us. The place was three quarters emty!!!. We asked for a quiet seat and eyes where rolled at us!!!. Ordered drinks and food only 1 drink came. Starters came quick and was ok. Mains came quick after starters but where luke warm and pour quility. Better places to eat in telford for the same money and better service.
D. B.
Never been to a TGI Friday before so was looking forward to trying it. It was OK. Food was nice enough but nothing special. Seemed to have a long wait for everything (including the bill at the end of the meal) even though it was fairly quiet. Seemed quite expensive too. Will probably go again, but not overly fussed about it.
d. s.
Came in last week, with some colleagues and was served by Sian on the bar. She was friendly and made us feel very welcome and even made us drinks we requested that weren’t in the menu. Lovely and bubbly young lady.
C. R.
Awsome food and awsome cocktails, unfortunately out of the 5 time we have been, 2 times they were under staffed so we waited ages to be able to place order, ask for drinks or even pay, customer service could be better, my fiancee was brought a dirty used spoon for her desert, they changed it and apologised and yet again were under staffed. We still like going on the weekend and have some cocktails and occasional food
S. E.
Not a place I'd go to again in a hurry, 1st waitress was brilliant, the when the food came there was a dip missing from one of the meals, asked a waiter who said he'd go and get it, never saw him again, when the deserts came one was missing, asked waitress she bought it out and it had ice-cream on when it shouldn't have, so no not impressed
J. G.
Not the fastest service and very noisy. Our allocated waiter/waitress changed 3 times during our time here due to shift changes? Confused because it just meant they moved to different part of the restaurant to serve so were still working. Food was ok, not anything special. Quite noisy and parents letting their kids rin loose ..so dangerous.
L. B.
Very nice restaurant. Plenty of tables and good selection on items on the menu to chose from. Can be quite expensive but the food and portion sizes are worth it. Great location too with the shopping centre and parking. Would recommend.
O. P.
Booked a table, waited half an hour just for the drinks order to be taken. We'd been sat down for 45 minutes before we had our drinks. Food was served about an hour after we arrived.
Took 20 minutes just to pay the bill, after asking a second time.
Pretty awful service although the food was decent.
C.
The food was ok but the service was awful! we waited almost 5mins to have some cutlery and even then no one kept coming back to the table to check if you wanted anymore drinks or if the food was ok. Just disappointing really.
S. B.
Five stars for the glaze. Wouldn't bother with dessert in future: brownie sundae was predominantly just vanilla ice cream and whipped cream with some brownie pieces that felt like they'd been dried out under a heat lamp for a good few hours. Slow service.
J. S.
We arrived 15 minutes early but we had to wait even if our table was ready. Waited 10 minutes for drinks. Arrived at our table, booked for 5 people, only 4 knives and forks (apparently the table was ready!). Waited 40 minutes for our food, the chips were cold for the burgers and the ribs were cold. Sweetcorn gets stuck in your teeth, being very dry. An order got messed up where double glazed ribs were taken to another table, having to have normal ribs instead. Went on New Years so maybe they were busy, we might try again on a less important day.
C. S.
Went with a couple of colleagues for dinner. I had a huge burger, one of my colleagues had a ribeye steak that he said was terrible, overcooked and dry, the other colleague had fajitas or something Mexican. The waitress dropped the plate with the guacamole the sour cream and salsa to his trousers, then brought a soaking cloth to clean them, only she made it worst. The sauces that ended up on the floor stayed there for more than half an hour before they decided to clean them. They brought his drink wrong (long Island ice tea instead of just an ice tea that he ordered).
All in all not great experience.
M. S.
It was my sons 18th birthday, and he chose tgi Fridays, I'm really glad he did. All the staff were happy and very helpful, the food was delicious. The only thing that let it down was having to wait so long for the bill, but it hasn't put us off visiting again
A. L.
Dusty lampshades, floor not swept and full of dirty napkins. Under staffed not the TGI Friday experience that I remember. Our waitress tried her hardest but really not as good as it should be.
S. A.
Not packed but a lovely atmosphere which is perfect. Nice big table for 8 off us. Lovey waiter. The shrimp to die for!
M. G.
Food was amazing, shame the service was slow. Had to wait ages to order, food was propmt coming though and staff very apologetic. Great aesthetics, great menu selection and atmosphere.
L. H. (.
Sorry not for me. Dark and dingy. Food for others excellent mine ok.
J. B.
Had a great evening last night at TGIs. Ray M was really friendly and attentive - couldn’t have asked for better service. Enjoyed the food and got off to a great start with a clean table (I HATE being cleaned around when the tables aren’t ready for customers!). Will definitely come again
L. D.
Top burger. Good service!. 👍🏼
K. P.
Food was ok. Service a little lack luster. Prices were slightly expensive. In a similar fashion to Frankie and Bennies, the regular 'Happy Birthday' singing was irritating.
H.
Food always lovely at this restaurant, never disappointed but the service really needs addressing because that lets this restaurant down. But will continue returning just for that jack daniels glaze! Better attention to customers would be good though.
A.
Food was very nice, staff were helpful, prices are a little high about £15/20 for your meal and drink. It is quite busy so might be best to download their app and book a table saves any disappointment or having to wait for a table.
d. j.
Great food and atmosphere. Service could have been a little quicker and more attentive,waited over 5 min for a spoon for our son, otherwise a place great.
A.
Taste and foodwise you know what you will get and I wasn't dissapointed, the remote ordering needs attention though.
C. H.
Love taking our family here.
Food is always nice and the staff are always helpful
S. R.
I didn't actually eat there on this particular visit, my 3 year old daughter need the toilet and we were going to the car so popped in and they were very good to let us go so thankyou very much. But very good experiences when we have eaten there
d. 2.
Fantastic service the staff were kind and polite and easily calmed my nerves and fears.
The food is top notch well worth the wait and the price
D. C.
Great food and great atmosphere, service was quick too, very good
L. M.
We always enjoy going to Tgi Fridays.. Vibe always good, food always good, cocktails always GREAT and service is always prompt and friendly. Recently we had Ray who welcomed us from the start and looked after us until right to the end.
c. c.
My first time there. We had a sharing platter. Amazing food and friendly service
S. G.
Although restaurant wasn't busy when we arrived service was really slow. Food was good. Although only managed one course as wasn't asked if we wanted anything else.
C. C.
The atmosphere here is great, the staff are very friendly and helpful. Food all looks good, a little on the pricey side but you get value for money. Great place for kids and adults.
j. b.
Service and food was great. We did have an issue with one meal, but the manager came over, apologised and handled everything warmly and professionally even though it was extreamly busy.
J. S.
Lovely 3 course meal the other night, all 4 of us had the unlimited refill drinks and Ray was always available and served us with a smile. Definitely returning!
E. F.
Service slow but food nice!
T. S.
Delicious food, and very filling.
G. J.
Foods been good every time. Staff are generally really good, although the last time we went the the waitress wasn't very hospitable.
A. n.
It is TGI, good is great. Prices are reasonable. Luv the bespoke water bottles. Staff were nice.
B. S.
Service and staff were all friendly and helpful.
But all the food was sub-par and let it down.
P. W.
Service was very slow and it wasn't very busy as I went in at 18.30
D. H.
Hit and miss. One day it will be amazing food, next day will be overcooked
D. L.
Excellent food at excellent value. Seated almost immediately with kind and friendly service: staff knew the menu and helped us out with the best offers.
J. W.
Wasn't expecting much but blown away by service and the food was great too. Zara was our waitress and considering she was new, she recommended items on the menu and provided a fab service.
a. P.
Fantastic food with even better service. You want to be treated like a king? This is the place to be
s. e.
Great staff and good food. Always a great atmosphere
A. S.
We stopped off for a bite yesterday eve whilst shopping in Telford, completely spoilt for choice when choosing where to eat.. 3 kids all wanting something different... So decided on TGIs. . Great choice as it was an open relaxed and casual atmosphere.. What topped it off was the amazing service from the staff, in particular Bethany, a young bright girl who couldn't do enough for us.. Thanks for a great evening and look forward to going back soon
S. M.
Very enjoyable experience, we had to wait a while for our food but it was lovely! We will be going back
C. W.
Had a really great waiter called Ray on tuesday night. Really nice guy and really looked after us. Food was delicious and came out quite quickly.
R. B.
A very good place. We ordered the gluten free and vegetarian options, the manager himself personal took the order - that is the way other restaurants should do it.
l. g.
Cold food, but great service was refired very quickly and the manager came over to apologise himself. Despite the food being cold the first time it was an overall good experience due to being corrected and apologised for straight away
K. P.
Mix up with the order was soon resolved
Good menu and choice of drinks
K. A.
Good food. Arrived hot to the table However they had run out of coffee! Dont think they would get away with that in US.
