Named after Abraham Darby himself. At 13 he inherited his Fathers shares in the family Iron-making business and with this he built the largest cast iron structure of its era: The First Iron Bridge ever built. In turn the bridge caused the Village of Ironbridge to grow around it with the area being subsequently named Ironbridge Gorge.

Very disappointing, glorified greasy spoon.
Overall the food was poor quality and £8 for a tiny breakfast with 6 items is a rip off. We figured for the price of our breakfast plus the £3 coffee we could have had the large breakfast which had much more food and juice and coffee included. We left feeling hungry and paid £20 for two drinks, a small breakfast and a bacon sandwich. Would definitely not recommend to anyone.
Keep walking and go to Truffles cafe, SO much better!!
