Archees Bar & Restaurant in Woking - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Been to the restaurant last evening we were welcomed by a kind waiter (alyhough restaurant seems very busy) offered cozy place with menus on hands, until we decide food we ordered our fresh juices which were enough to win our heart(fresh lemonade and strawberry juices) then in a short time we were served with starters,and then main meal, the flavor the spices were just perfect and works like a magic in a lovely friendly atmosphere, beautiful decore soft music quick friendly service, and very reasonable prices and not wrong to say one of the best restaurant experience so far in woking and guildford, hatts off to the sheff and weldone to all the waiters for their hardwork. Definitely coming back with more friends and family.

I have very fond memories of Archee's, especially one special night. I was hoping to have a meal next door in Pizza Express but was told it was fully booked. Somewhat confused as there wasn't a soul in the place, I wandered next door into Archee's and my life was to change forever. Sitting outside with my chilli McCoys and pint of Kronenbourg, Joe the young barman asked why I was smoking outside in the cold as the smoking ban wouldn't arrive for another 6 years. He helped me moved my crisps, drink, ashtray and umbrella inside and I joined a friendly group by the window. We smoked merrily away, for these were the days before it was harmful to your health, and discussed England's prospects to get to Japan and South Korea, the following year. I was poohpoohed (good naturedly) when I extolled the virtues of Emile Heskey and said he would be key in beating Germany 5-1 next September. "At the Olympische Stadion?!" teased Graham, "Jimmy Hill! Chinny reck-on!!". Admitting my prediction was unlikely, I suggested a round to smooth the waters. Returning from the bar with another Kronenbourg, Carling Premier for Marina, Carling for Graham (he was driving) and some Frazzles, I noticed three people sprinting past the window in the direction of Pizza Express. If ladies do not perspire, they glow, these two young girls were lighting up the street. They must have run a long way and were desperate for a Sloppy Giuseppe, maybe an ice cream. Their Dad, however, he was just, so... dashing. He'd sprinted all the way from the blacked out Range Rover, yet there wasn't a hair out of place, not a drop of sweat to be seen. Our lovely lovely cigarettes drooped from our lips. Marina broke the silence. "Isn't that..." "His Royal Highness", I interjected. "Prince Andrew?", finished Graham. We swooned. It couldn't be, could it? I'd never seen him round these parts. I'd heard he never had reason to be here. Yet there he was, hacking up phlegm, bent double from the sprint, yet completely dry. I would remember this day forever. I looked at my watch. It was 8.05pm, March 2001.

Mi esposa y yo visitamos el Bar Archees después de ser el teatro de Woking. Nos hicieron sentir muy bienvenidos por Joe, el barman, nos tomamos unas copas bien unos cuantos y también nos unió una pareja que estaban en el bar también. Luego nos preguntó qué Joe tipo de música nos gustó y nos dijo algo muy bien logrado, sin duda para recoger joe las canciones justo, es un lugar genial, es la primera vez para nosotros, pero sin duda volveremos en el futuro. Un gran gracias a Joe para una gran noche y también para corriendo por la carretera para coger pues mi esposa había dejado su paraguas en el bar y había comenzando a lluvia, cuántos camareros Archees haría ese gracias y Gracias Joe pronto Jaco y Sarah

Yo vivo en Woking y he estado Bar archees en un par de ocasiones, la más reciente ha sido el catalizador para mi comentario, Estoy impresionada por la ausencia total de cualquier habilidades sociales/customer focus del dueño/camarero. Me sorprende que este lugar está haciendo ningún provecho. Si no hay habitación 'no te molestes en dar su dinero a este chico. . . Hay muchos bares donde se autocalifican como grreted con una sonrisa y un gran servicio. - no me 'vuelve' volver

Este es un gran lugar para ir y ver fútbol. El v-personal del bar es amable y sirven una buena variedad de bebidas. El bar es de un tamaño razonable, con un montón de asientos

I don’t normally write reviews, but did in this instance because in my opinion the other reviews are unfair. Firstly, Archees is a fairly standard local pub. Secondly, it serves, by some way, as the best sports bar in Woking. Some of the previous reviewers must not have been aware of that when they visited, perhaps expecting a Pitcher and Piano or a Slug And Lettuce type establishment which Archees certainly isn’t and isn't trying to be. It is however a very decent pub. The staff at Archees will welcome anyone and you will never have an issue such as bad service, dirty glasses or dodgy pints as you might do in other pubs/bars in the area. It is a friendly place to have a couple of drinks, or loads of drinks it's up to you, and a good time. If you don’t like the music that is playing, ask nicely and it will be changed. If you want to watch football, and it legally allowed to be shown live, then this is the place to go. My only point would be is that as of March 2016, there is currently no food served apart from an exceptional display of bar snacks, which you can wash down with a nice cold pint, whilst watching the football.

What a dismal dive of a place. Populated by questionable 30 something's snd 50+ year olds. Cheep drinks but a miserable owner.

Visited prior to visit to a local restaurant to be greeted by the owner / head barman(!!) Dennis whom one can only describe as the only person to make Basil Fawlty look good. Customer service clearly not a priority and nice to witness aforementioned Dennis shooting shots with his equally foul mouthed regulars. Better off making it a private members club???!!!

This my my own local, completely & independently run by Dennis. Food is only served on Sundays. Sport is shown constantly. , music is always on!My perfect local to unwind with a pint or two after work. Walking is a bonus! Regulars are friendly & full of humour. Parking spaces limited.

I used to live within 200 yards of this bar and it was a hugely popular place - always full. What's happened now? It was empty on an Xmas holiday night and we ended up making a sharp exit after a couple of drinks. Having read the other reviews, it seems that this is pretty standard nowadays.

I have lived in Woking all my life and have never had such poor pub experiences then at Archees. Every visit is filled will dissapointment. The landlord has no people skills and could only be described as rude and obnoxious. It's only saving grace is that so few people are ever in there, you don't have to queue for a drink.

Drank there a lot over the last year, its always empty , the landlord/owner has no people skills and is rude, which begs the question how its still open? The sooner this place closes the better.

Good size bar with seating outside. Friendly service and good food. Families welcome. Nice place for a pint on the way home from work!

Dark, empty. Only locals drinking away their depression in their 50's Good drinks selection, limited shots. For some reason they play a lot of county and western from the 50/60's Still I would rather drink there than in town. So I drink at the lotus lounge :) It's 200 feet up the road from Archess. There are girls at choys.....

Lovely place for a pint and watch live football. Walking distance from Woking town centre. Few Restaurants are around if you need a bite.

An awful, awful bar. No atmosphere, very empty, poor drink selection, dreadful music! Woking isn't known for its bars, and when 'Goldies' was open I bet it did a roaring trade, but Archies is dire these days.

Nice clean bar. Have been a customer for approximately 4 years. Landlord very welcoming and efficient. Good quality roast dinners served on a Sunday which are reasonably priced.

Nice beers - but never seen any food being served.

I've been a regular visitor to Archees for lunch at least once a month for about the last 5 or 6 years. However they've recently cut back their menu. They used to serve excellent sandwiches and jacket potatoes and toasties; good honest lunchtime fare.The new menu available in June 2009 is just burgers and nachos, of varying quality and quantity of proportions. I had a bacon roll that was memorable only for its grease and gristle.They also don't offer an alcohol free beer. This is a mistake as those who need to drive expect this to be available.With Pizza Express next door and Zizzis opposite, and both of these doing credit crunch offers, Archees just isn't worth a lunchtime visit any more,
