Lovely overnight stay
We were looking for somewhere to stay overnight to break up our journey, and decided to give the Bird In Hand a go. We were welcomed and looked after very well, and instantly felt comfortable. The dinner in the evening was great. They make no bones about it being anything other than pub food, but that means they do it very well. The steak was outstanding. January isn't the best time to visit the gorge, but we'll almost certainly be back in better weather!

Friendly atmosphere in a nice pub
Friendly landlord and owner accommodation was good. The room was clean and the shower was excellent. The decor not to my taste, a bit dark, but everything was clean and very well set out. The deal we had was for half board and breakfast so we got a really good deal and the food was excellent. We would definitely stay there again, the room we had gave us a lovely view over the River Severn.

Perfect spot for visiting historic Ironbridge
Just what we would expect from a pub that is older than the Ironbridge itself. Full of character rather than part of a chain
