The Golden Ball is Ironbridge’s oldest inn and is located half way up Madeley hill on Newbridge Road in the Ironbridge Gorge, in Shropshire. We source our food from local suppliers in order to maintain a fresh and inspiring seasonal menu.
Our aim is to surprise and delight you, from the first mouthful of a mouthwatering starter right through to the delicious desserts at the end of your meal. Relax in the sunshine in our beer-garden or courtyard, and enjoy your meal with some of are refreshing local ales or majestic wines. Come and stay in one of our on-suite rooms, and relax in the delights the Ironbridge gorge has to offer. There are always 5 real ales to choose from, continental lagers and a range of ciders draft and bottled and to top it off try from one of our malt whiskeys.
We have four beautifully decorated rooms available at The Golden Ball Inn, the perfect place to base yourself whilst you explore historic Ironbridge and the
breathtaking Shropshire countryside.

Great beer, great service, lovely atmosphere. We visited this place randomly after a day in Ironbridge and we just walked in. Just the 2 of us and the staff said to just help ourselves to seats, fairly busy but if you're looking for a nice warm fire, great food and service then this is the place to be. Whether you're a local or a newcomer, you feel welcome. We had fish and chips and honestly, it was some of the best fish I've had in a long time. Normally you find bland or overcooked fish but the chef knows what they are doing, home made tartar sauce and home cut chips. It was a delight to eat and drink here. Definitely cosy and definitely coming back. This visit was about 3 weekends ago now but meant to write this review back then!
The food was good when it came! Unfortunately it seems that they struggled with the size of the party. The public house is very old with lots of atmosphere and has "pockets of rooms" A big plus point, it's dog friendly
Visited at lunchtime - was a very cosy atmosphere and friendly staff. The food choice was good and I had a lovely sandwich. The menu said the sandwich came with nachos and a side salad and could add chips for additional fee - I added chips but didn’t get any nachos unfortunately and found the chips a little too salty. Otherwise great visit and very dog friendly. Would recommend and would go back.
Lovely traditional pub with great friendly atmosphere and staff. I come here solo, with Friends and what I do love is its a dog friendly pub so I take my dog with me also who always gets given treats. Since the new ownership they are continually bringing new events to the pub which can be partnerships with other local businesses. My favorite is Sunday lunch..roast pork is to die for. Well done all at the Ball.
Called in on spec £95 including breakfast for 2. Room big and spotless. Evening meal in pub lovely. Breakfast very tasty, well cooked and presented, set us up for the day . Bus stop outside not sure of the times etc. Will stay again, thank you.
