Astolat Pub in Guildford

Just moved in the area, first bup to try, i love that everyone is chill and friendly.🤜🤛

Love the place, local pub with nice staff and fresh beers.

Stopped here on the off chance they served food.So glad we did.Great pub atmosphe served with a smile.Food was out of this world.I tend to go for a chicken biryani and this one was up there with the best.Amazing flavours.We will 10p% be visiting again.😁👍

Called here for dinner. Wide range of menu options to choose from. Decided on Indian. Lovely flavors, decent portions. Good service.

I couldn’t think of a better place to witness Fabian schar’s screamer against west ham. Staff are lovely (except Tom he is still learning bless him give him a chance) Everyone is friendly so you should speak to everyone especially people by the dart board they love conversation.

Although I live close by I hadn’t been in for a very long time. My son and I visited for a couple of beers and were pleasantly surprised to see how full it was (being January), and the friendly atmosphere. Obviously the local for many of the people there. I suspect we will return on my next visit.

Visited this pub on a Saturday evening, the place is nice and serves the most of the drinks you would want. We went there bcoz of the Indian food, the restaurant is run by Nepali chef of ownership, I guess. Their menu is quite extensive, for starters we ordered, Chicken Tikka Fried Chilli, which was okay, and a tandori mixed grilled platter, which nothing was grilled but just platting meat pieces and chicken pieces cooked from a curry and put together. For Mains, we ordered Mutton Rogan Gosh, Madras Chicken, Dal (lentil) with rice, Butter chicken and Naan, which was okay nothing wow but the Butter chicken, was nothing close to anything, just cooked in thick coconut paste, with cream. Rather call it Cream of Coconut Chicken. Very disappointing, if you have eaten the authentic butter chicken. I don't recommend this at all. PS. I would always click pictures of food I eat but I didn't even bother for this.

By far the best Indian food in Guildford. Tried a few and they are nowhere as good as this one. Would highly recommend food is delicious very good portions and reasonably priced. Would recommend Rogan Josh, Jalfreizi, Dopiaza, Tikà Byriani, Bhuna, Tika Masala, Garlic Naan and of course the Onion Bhajis

Been going since I was a child.

It's not the most attractive of pubs, but don't be put off. It's a great place to stop for curry or beer.

Friendly pub, well run by the Mark. The Indian cuisine served by the Anaj is fantastic.

Came for the curry evening with all of my family and loved it. It’s £12 for a curry, rice or naan and a drink (soft drink, wine or beer). Exceptional value for Guildford. The food was amazing with very generous portions, drinks were on point and service was friendly. Good atmosphere with several football matches being televised on the big screens. Clearly a favourite with the locals and the uni crowd which is great - everyone was happily mingling with each other. It’s great to see a local pub doing so well on a Tuesday night! Will definitely be back.

Amazing pub, been coming weekly for the Currey night Tuesdays and F1/Rugby for a few years now and will keep coming back. Amazing music always playing and great service. Definitely a gem of Guildford

Always close early and management not really interested in service.

Was a hot day, well conditioned larger and a shady seat. Nice 😊👌

Good pub for watching football matches and Indian foods value for money

Young lady behind the bar very unpleasant. Landlord friendly and has a smile for all his customers.

Great time, friendly staff and good food!

A went here. T'were other people there, too.

It was a good experience, most drinks are reasonably priced for Guildford. The curry and drink deal on Tuesdays is okay - it states £10 outside but it is now £12. The drink is also limited in this offer which is a shame

Nice pub for a drink but expensive. Staff always lovely and friendly. Sports always running on multiple TVs. Nice outdoor heated area with a TV too. Pool table and dart board. Indian place inside always serves nice food in my opinion. Only gripe is some things are expensive…..large lemonade and lime was £4.40. There’s no way. These prices need a review as designated drivers/non drinkers shouldn’t be penalised for being so. Also quiz night is LOUD, the announcer guy gets on the mic and shouts down it for some reason lol.

The naan bread and the sauces were so good..the lady serving us was super sweet. I love the proximity to campus and you get the feel of a pub without having to go into town. Good for laid back nights or a quick bite of authentic Indian food.

Nice and cozy pub. A good place for football lovers and beer enthusiasts. The Indian restaurant inside is maybe not so authentic but again that's my opinion. All in all, a nice hangout spot.

We do enjoy a good curry. We've tried Anaj twice and never again. Soggy popadums, greasy bhajis and a butter chicken where you could crunch the dessicated coconut and the sauce was slimy and absolutely no heat at all (We think this was for a Korma instead!). Probably the worst curry in Guildford!

Been there sunday at 17, not much people and no Guinness. The only food they have is indian and is very good.

Great cosy outdoor seating and they play fantastic music here. Amazing curries, fairly decent beer selection and a slug on the wall. Wish I'd known about this place during university!

I enjoyed my first time there. I loved seeing the big brown 🐕.

All drinks were great, Tom made sure we had everything we ordered even though they were quite busy and had many clients to look after. It was disappointing we couldn’t over food because they had too many orders, but still worth the visit.

Great ales, friendly staff, best pub in Guildford

Usually really like our local - they have BT Sport and Sky so great coverage of sport but today the lady behind the bar was very rude. She seemed to take issue with us from the moment we walked in. Really wish there was another option for a drink in Onslow Village!

Good hygiene and social distancing measures. Friendly, efficient staff serving well kept beer and cider.

Really nice pub!Too bad he doesn't have food, but the site is great. And the staff is very nice

I used to be a regular but after having so many bad experiences decided to walk into town instead. Only good thing about this pub is the TVs for watching the odd game.

Good beer, good telly and good quiz. All the best qualities in a pub

Good beer, go Indian food.good service good atmosphere

Good price Currey with loads of options.

Went in here a few days ago. It does seem to have changed a little since my last visit several years ago. Mostly the furniture in the Astolat has changed. I was with a friend and we ordered curry from an in-house takeaway service which I imagine is about sharing costs and facilities. The place was fairly quiet and it's not central. I know historically they used to have quiz nights. I don't know what they now do in terms of entertainment, however there was football match on and several screens showing it so I guess that's at least part of what they do. Overall I liked the experience, though am unlikely to frequent the pub, I would have no reason to object to going again.

Nice quiet little pub, doesn’t open until 3pm on a Saturday though.

Small dishes and long time waiting

Indian food was good and not expensive. Would definitely go again

Very friendly atmosphere. Good for people who love to play pool and be relaxed and have a laugh

Up until now I've been to The Astolat 3 times, and it's always been so welcoming. Me and my mate played darts here a few days ago and came to have another pint tonight, once again great service!!

Drinks, food, darts, pool and football! What more could you want? Great place.

Basic boozer, friendly crowd, pricey beer but that's Guildford

Best pub in guildford. True story.

A small but nice pub just outside Guildford Town Centre. Plenty of seating indoors and outside to have a drink.

Love it. Keep going back. The staff are friendly. The people who go are friendly.

Great atmosphere and great food yum yum

Excellent Thursday night quiz. Superb food

All I can say is WOW! Amazing food and lovely warm friendly staff! Well worth a try!

Great pub, food is awesome. They have proper curries, and there's awesome pizza every Friday. They also have a pool table, and TVs.

Expected price nowadays for a pint, and plenty of large screens to watch the footy!

Very good to watch the world cup.

I love this pub, I still consider it my local even though I don't spend as much time there as I once did. The highlights have to be the owner (he's much happier than he sometimes appears), the monthly pub quiz (it's a doozy), the Indian food (most nights), and Jerry's pizzas (Fridays only in the summer) - these really are the best pizzas in Guildford and a pizza and a pint for £10 (accurate at time of writing) is an outstanding deal. It's one of the friendliest and safest pubs in Guildford :-)

Good night out. A good atmosphere watching football.

Very pleasant. Good range of drinks, food selection is great and lot's or room to sit down.

Great pub landlord. And landlady very nice ppl.

Don't judge a book by its cover - in spite of unpromising exterior, a friendly pub , well cooked if spicy curry!

Didn't really see much of the pub as I went with a friend to catch up & we sat outside. But it seemed pleasant enough, made a nice change to the chaos of the town centre!

Friendly, have pool table and doggies welcome

Lovely pub, friendly staff and good range of beers. Excellent Indian food.

What a lovely pub. Great atmosphere. Great food. ! 🙃 what more could you ask for.?

Great Tuesday curry night, quiz night every month and some great band. Worth a look

Nice pub but poor choice of ales, good atmosphere

Good selection of beers and lagers also there is a Indian restaurant inside the pub .one of the best Indians in Guildford

Miss Williams is an excellent barmaid and pulls a pint with a loving smile 😉

Bar maid was incredibly rude and the heavy pop music playing in the background just made the entire experience there uncomfortable. They love their regulars though The Asian food however is incredible. 5 stars for him and 1 star for the bar.

great local pub, with Indian food all week + takeaway & in the summer on Fridays the best pizza in Guildford. Definitely worth a visit !

Good beer selection, friendly staff

The director mark one of the rudest person, shouldnt be in bar at all... overall a rubbish place and service

Jerry's Pizzas on a Friday night are the best in Guildford. He has an woodfired oven out the front and sells handmade pizzas in the evening. They are better than anything I got in Italy. Quite often I call by and order takeaway
