Tasty food, good service and not too busy for a family Sunday

Awful atmosphere. Huge missed opportunity. Relatively new to the area. Wish it was a good local but keep giving it a go and always the same. Unwelcoming atmosphere. Not really set up to just come for a drink - not many places to sit in the bar area. Three sofas make up 90% of bar seating and all face in to the room rather than being set up in confined areas for different people to use so the same group sit across the whole front area. Every time we’ve been in there is a large group taking up all the bar / sofas who all seem to know the staff so feels like you’re waking in to a private event or someone’s living room. Could be really nice if they set the bar seating up better and worked to create a better atmosphere to small groups to come in and have a drink. Hopefully they sort it out as staff are friendly and food is good.

Lovely country pub in delightful English village. A great Sunday lunch. Weel worth a stop.

Lovely food and great service in a lovely old pub. I have been coming to this pub very occasionally since around 1991 and it never disappoints.

Excellent food. Whitebait was nice and crispy. Extremely tasty pie of day, steak and onion, with plenty of meat and gravy and al dente broccoli. Cricken breast and chorizo in mushroom sauce also hit the spot. Nice environment to enjoy a relaxed lunch after a blustery walk. Pleasant and efficient service also added to a positive experience

Just make sure you’re a village local, or you’ll get a weird attitude from certain staff.I actually live in the village but don’t go in often due to the attitude from owners/managers who think I’m not a local.

Brilliant food. Excellent service. Comfortable surroundings. Great value for money. The serving team go beyond the call of duty to make your visit worthwhile. Do go. Then, like me, you will return, even if it's a 10 mile drive each way. It's worth it.

We were a group of three that went for Sunday lunch. We were told there was a large group of 30 at 3pm and to come for 4pm so as to avoid the large group. When we arrived at 4pm we were told we might have to wait for our order due to the large group sucking up kitchen resources. We all had the roast beef, which was generally good - nice roast potatoes - meat quality acceptable. I don't personally like mashed parsnips and prefer roasted, but that was a minor complaint. The main issue I had was with the overbearing passive aggressive service. When the bill was due, the waitress stood over me and said 'I suppose you want me to leave' while covering her face with her hand to avoid any comment or eye contact - the experience was strange to say the least. We felt as though we were being spoken to like we were children the whole time and certainly didn't feel welcome. This is another pub that automatically adds 12.5% to the bill for service. We begrudgingly paid the extra, to avoid a scene, but given the above, were not particularly overjoyed. We have decided to not return as there are plenty of other similar offerings to try around Surrey.
Lovely low ceiling pub with character and good atmosphere, cosy by the fire. Food was tasty.

Good place away from Guildford but yet very close. The service could have been better. Apparently they were geared for Christmas dos and it would have been quicker if we’d have chosen to do our Christmas do rather than a normal lunch with

A beautiful place with a relaxed atmosphere. Decorated beautifully for Christmas. Friendly, helpful and knowledgeable staff.Had a fantastic evening here and would recommend the gluten free pizza - it was delicious.
