Great spot for a morning coffee and a sweet treat, why not. Go there if you are in the area.

The top waitress there just left for another job....big lose...and it shows... this WAS a great place. Service is now a bit hit and miss. Food, its OK though basic. Cakes they sometimes have it sometimes not. No one seems in charge anymore. This cafe is now struggling and it shows. Get consistent again.

We dived in here after strolling up and down a freezing Dorking high street. We were lucky to get a table. The paninis and coffee were OK, nothing special,. The service was very good. Bizarrely the toilets were like something out of Chelsea flower show, very cosy!

What an absolute find this cafe was On our way home from a short break and fell upon this lovely cafe with great friendly staff, lovely service and great coffee The scent of candles filled the air and the effort gone into decorating for Christmas, including the loo! was fab. It was a real treat and made us smile 😊 Would recommend

Unfortunately, the espresso knowledge at this establishment fell short for me, and as an enthusiast, I believe that understanding the soul of coffee is paramount. While the customer service had a decent touch, my concern extended to their coffee brewing methods, which, in my opinion, did not meet expectations. The flavor of the coffee also left much to be desired. I offer this review as constructive criticism, hoping for improvements in the future.

Always friendly, lovely Coffee and pastries and more importantly always open on public holidays, special days and regardless of the weather conditions, so reliable and so rare these days.

Just awful. Very expensive, and they forgot my wife’s order. 40 mins wasted and no apologies from staff. If you want a coffee or something to eat in Dorking, I suggest you go to Burgundy & Black instead.

Walked in, found a table, sat down for a full ten minutes without being acknowledged or approached by staff (who were hardly run off their feet). Got up, left, went to Costa instead. I'll always support local independent shops over chains where I can, but if they can't be arsed with my business I'll have to go elsewhere.

Decent enough coffee shop just off the main drag in Dorking town centre. Quirky enough to set it apart from the chains but retains sufficient decorum to keep its key clientele happy, which when we visited comprised the older generation and families. Coffee and hot chocolate were OK and although we didn't try the food, the cakes and sandwiches looked tempting. Service was friendly and efficient.

Awful place full of old people. Wanted a quick hot chocolate with my wife, walked in and ordered 2no hot chocolates and whilst my wife used the facilities I was stared down by two elderly women who wanted our seats, they then opted to take up two table for four people all to themselves. The chocolate arrived, I can't call it hot chocolate as I was able to chug it down in one go, so tepid at best. Cash only was also the way to pay, we are moving away from cash yet places like this expect only cash with no warning on the door!!!

We came to Dorking to browse the antique shops and came across this charming coffee shop. The home made cakes (not sure if they actually were, but they looked it) were absolutely gorgeous and tasted delicious. A wide selection of flavours and the cost was reasonable. The staff were friendly and helpful.We will definitely return if we go back to Dorking as the High Street was a bit shabby in places and this coffee shop was down a walk way.

Well I like it being cashless. There's a nice gentle pace in the place where there are very few irritating people. No one seems in a hurry to leave. The menu is simple but just right for a easy lunch or snack. Bit nicer than being "on the hoof" - save that for Costa. Rather like the unassuming waitresses too. Always polite, gently getting on with it and well worth tipping at the end of the visit. The toilet facilities are a pleasant surprise and it's good to be in an independent coffee shop in the centre of town with a quiet buzz.

I've walked past Fothergills many times on my trips to Dorking, the fascia is dark and not terribly eye-catching and I've not given it any thought before. However, a friend took me there this week and I was very pleasantly surprised when we got inside. The interior although quite dark, is cosy, warm and clean, and the service is friendly and attentive without being annoying. We had coffee (great) and an enormous piece of Bakewell Tart (tasty). In fact, I was so impressed that I took my husband there today (13/6/19) and we had coffee again, panini and goats' cheese tart (both very tasty). Fothergills is a great find.

Stopped by with a friend for a catch-up. The place was very busy but we found a cosy table at the back. The staff have embraced Halloween and the whole place has been decorated to the hilt including a plastic spider on our table! The cake and coffee were great and we were so busy chatting we didn't notice that the place had emptied out. There was no attempt to push us out or encourage us to leave so top marks to the friendly staff. If I visited Dorking more often I would definitely visit regularly. yes it is cash only but we were alerted to this at the start so there was no nasty surprise when the time came to pay the bill.

We love the Fox Revived and went this time for my birthday. The food was it's usual high standards, it arrived quickly and we thoroughly enjoyed it. What made this occasion even more special was the service we had from one of the waiters, Ed. He is friendly, polite, attentive without being pushy and remembered details. He went over and above to provide little extras for my granddaughter and indeed myself as he presented my cake. Excellent service from all involved at the Fox Revived.

Family dinner for 6 , Friday evening. Asked for a quieter table & were taken to a circular one in the rear room. Nicely handled, no fuss & helped for our hard of hearing relative. Thanks. The meal service was very friendly , tho I didn’t find the drinks list until later. It was in front of me! Good was good , we had a variety of dishes starters, mains & desert. All done well. Good selection of non alcoholic drinks where needed. First time in the White Horse for years. Well worth it & very nice. Thanks to the staff.

First impression of this pub is it's a "proper pub" No plastic nastiness, good bar, horse brasses on the wall, comfortable and sturdy tables and chairs. The service is very friendly and efficient, good selection of beers and the food very tasty. Portion sizes are commensurate with prices IMO. I shall return.
