Thomas Botfield, Telfordback to pub details please note - reviews on this site are purely the opinion of site visitors, so don't take them too seriously.
The only real ale in the shopping centre a previous poster said - dont take the definition of real too seriously.
The beer here is always very mediocre and does not give a first time drinker a good impression - it would put me off real ale too.
The beer is always pulled through a tight sparkler so always tastes the same. The service is dreadful especially on a friday lunchtime.
If you have to drink cask beer in telford shopping centre then you get no choice but to come here but avoid if you can I say.
The food and coffee look good though :)

Huge Wetherspoons cavern, alternating between coffee shop, breakfast bar, chav creche, cheap senior citizen's eatery, refuge for early morning alkies, heaving hordes of clubbers tanking up before a night out in Wellington or sensible beer drinkers like you and I. The food is always acceptable and reasonably priced - you know what to expect. The best choice of ale is usually "coming soon", but there's always an option other than Ruddles/Pedigree which are of varying quality. Good bottled beer selection at the moment - Kozel, Tucher weissbier. Friendly service despite the usual Wetherspoon lack of staff on the bar. Tables beginning to look a bit shabby and the toilets need some attention, but this is the only place for a pint in Telford shopping mall, so it serves its purpose.

Large very open plan pub , much like a canteen , understaffed like many a wetherspoons , beer ok , atmosphere crap , group of drunks hanging around by door upsetting people seemed to be friends of manager , not the best but little choice out here .

Not my sort of place really , beer not bad , atmosphere more like a canteen than pub {saturday afternoon} . As previous review says nowhere else to drink in this part of telford so everthing in here from old grannies to tattooed thugs and all life in between .

I travel the country with work and I've been in a lot worse Wetherspoons than this. OK it's small and packed and a VERY mixed clientele but where else are the locals likely to go in central Telford? Both the beers I tried Everards Equinox and Highwood Jolly Ploughman were well kept AND I managed to win £5.50 on the quiz machine so not a bad visit all round.

Seems to be a cross between a wetherspoons [it is] and a school canteen , the worst wetherspoons i have been in !
