Gomshall Mill in Guildford

Interesting, unique environment. Prompt delightful service. Delicious food. Altogether a most enjoyable experience.

We had a work lunch as a large group. The welcome, service, food and drinks were all excellent. This was particularly impressive given the size of our group. My pork terrine starter was super tasty with a homemade piccalilli. I was able to substitute dauphinois potatoes instead of cheddar mash with the leg of duck: delicious. I really like what they have done to revive the GM which was very shabby and dark previously. The restaurant was full for midweek lunch so booking advised.

We have our daughter at Surrey University and were taking her back to her to her accommodation after some Sunday Lunch. I booked it 2 weeks ahead and it was very busy so lucky to get a table. The service was very friendly, the food was really good, the venue is really nice and the price was very reasonable too. Great big yorkshire puddings and then the bread and butter pudding was great. We will definitely go there again.

We visited on Saturday evening to celebrate my sisters birthday. The food and service was absolutely wonderful and we can’t thank Jill enough for how well she looked after us. Really recommend for any big get together and look forward to visiting again soon.

Stopped off for a drink and some lunch on a beautiful autumnal drive through the Surrey hills. We hadn’t booked. They were very busy. We were looked after, had a seat at the bar, waited patiently for a table and rewarded with one by the fire . Staff Checked how our meals were. We both had a lunch sandwich with fries, was filling and tasty

The food is very good. I had Chicken breast and the the dauphinoise potato was tasty as was the red cabbage. The red wine, smoked bacon and tarragon gravy was delicious. The pub has been nicely done up and it was a good experience all round.

This was my 3rd visit to The Gomshall Mill since it was under new ownership. On every occasion we haven't been able to fault the food, but on every occasion the service is just too slow!!! The last visit it took an hour for someone to take our order, not good enough sadly to inspire me to return any time soon.

Very nice environment, friendly young team - service was good. Enjoyed a great Sunday lunch. Would recommend

First time we'd been here under the current owners - what a fabulous meal! We had the prawns to share - they were gorgeous and the batter was really light and crispy. The pork belly was our main of choice and that was delicious. The service was great, the background music was subtle and mellow. Thank you Gomshall Mill - we'll be back!

The best experience of the meal was the ambiance and comfort. The Gallery is very tastefully refurbished and decorated. However, the meal was average and was surprised that the chicken and tarragon pie was served with a red wine gravy… far too rich for the subtle taste of the pie. The only veg apart from mash was cabbage. This is most unusual these days not to have another green or root veg. Service pleasant but a bit slow. I will return as live locally.

Ideal pub. High quality menu. Delighful staff. Could not ask for better. Atmosphere and architecture brilluant with local river running tgru the mill

The Mill has excellent food (including a good selection of vegan options), is dog friendly, has fantastic service, a great atmosphere, and idyllic pub location.

Service was friendly and efficient. Our server was Isabel who looked after us very well, despite our choice of puddings being unavailable. The atmosphere was buzzy and cosy. The food was delicious and well-presented. Parking was easy.

Delicious food, great service and a stunning venue to celebrate a birthday (or any special occasion) Will definitely return.

Fantastic full English, well priced. Very friendly and a beautiful location. We had our wedding reception here in 2002 and live local but busy lives mean we don't get back very often. The pub is under new management since we got married they are really friendly and the service is great .

Great place to have Sunday lunch with friends and family. Everyone so friendly and kind and food is delicious. We love coming here .

I went with friends to celebrate a milestone birthday on Saturday for a late lunch/early dinner. The service and food never fails to deliver, the staff are so friendly and helpful and the food is tremendous. The lamb shank special and pork belly particular standouts....

Excellent food, service and atmosphere, great selection of beers and friendly staff. A really lovely and historic setting with ample parking makes for a great night out.

We had the best time! The staff were super friendly from the minute we arrived. Lovely menu and sensible portions too! A great atmosphere - we will be back!

A lovely setting with good food and very friendly efficient staff. The Mill has been very sensitively refurbished and would be a lovely setting outside on a fine day. Unfortunately the inside area is very noisy making conversation quite difficult. his is a penalty of...

10/10, couldn't fault it. Food was amazing - i had the gammon egg and fries from the special which was delicious and my boyfriend had the garlic and herb chicken which he said was really good! to top it off, the sticky toffee pudding was...

I've been there may times, the location is very quirky, inside the mill, so whilst you eat you can have a look at the water flowing under you. it makes the atmosphere very calming. the food is incredible - sunday roast cooked to perfection! and...

This is the first time we have eaten at The Gomshall Mill and we will definitely be back - great food with loads of choice, friendly service, full of character and lots of parking too! So glad we found this place.

A lovely atmosphere, delicious food and charming wait staff ... thank you! This is the first time I've been here since it was refurbished and they've done a great job!! Would definitely recommend!

Such a shame, we live directly opposite this lovely old pub. Went for supper this evening, menu looked good. When it arrived we were surprised how small the portions were for so much money! The meal was very enjoyable, though not enough! We were still...

Went because it has been newly renovated and a birthday treat. Service was slow and food wasn't exceptional. Not as good as before the renovation and with previous owners. Not a bad experience but not remarkable either.

Delicious lunch here today. The pub’s decor and ambiance is excellent. Good value. We enjoyed talking to our knowledgeable, charming waitress.

Had our wedding lunch at the Mill with family and friends. There were only nine of us and the staff made it feel really special. The food was excellent and everything was done to make it a relaxed and memorable occasion. Thank you

Had a great meal, service very good and whole experience, wonderful. I would certainly go back to this old mill, when in Surrey

The menu, not extensive but well thought out and very nice. The staff were very welcoming and made us feel very welcome. The food was excellent and reasonably priced

Wow! What a wonderful find. Stopped off for a delicious Sunday roast which didn’t disappoint. Attentive and polite staff. Great choice of Roasts. Good size portions, meal was lovely and hot, looked appetising and tasted great. Need to return to sample the rest of the...

Amazing venue, fantastic service…we loved the food. We had a great lunch, enjoyed the surroundings and definitely will be back for more!

Very friendly service with Henry and delicious lunch - nice atmosphere - perfect for a rainy day ! Had the burger with lovely chips !

Pushed the boat out and had a Special for starter and steak for main. The Garlic prawns were just about the best I’ve had (and I have had many!) with tomato and basil giving a unique flavour, steak was succulent and chips fantastic. Lovely service...

It was our 34th wedding anniversary, so we wanted something special. We were early, so got a drink from the outside bar. On being shown to our table, we were asked if we wanted to order drinks - with my beer and my Wife's wine...

Great food and service - lovely pub with great wine selection! We enjoyed our dinner - steak cooked to perfection

Went for my best friends 60th birthday, it was just perfect as we use to visit years ago with our mums 💗 been restored brilliantly with lovely children's play area, stunning outside and inside, staff were fab and food delicious definitely be back!

Decided to drop in on the way back home and a nice surprise. Friendly smiling staff who were very attentive and the food was well priced and very nice. The mill is in a great setting offers a nice vibe and we’ll be back soon...

The garden is lovely with an outside bar and very very hard working staff. For is excellent. Inside there is a lovely bar and restaurant near the old water wheel. Lovely venue for a casual drink or a special meal.

Staff are AMAZING. Hottest day of the year and the young lady that served me was still smiling after a long shift…….you cannot fault this venue……drinks tonight and dinner last night with my wife. GREAT pub and they’re doing it right.

It was a lovely summer’s day and we sat on the terrace. The food was delicious and the staff adapted the food to meet our preferences.

We came here for an early dinner on Saturday afternoon. This was our first visit and we found it by chance. Beautiful looking pub /restaurant converted from an old mill building and renovated to a high standard. We got a table for 2 inside. There...

Amazing place. We went for our wedding anniversary, the staff gave us a complimentary glass of Prosecco each and a signed card when we arrived, it was such a special and thoughtful touch! Food was excellent, Service was outstanding.

Nice restaurant, good food, very good service, nice staff. But Our meal was spoilt by dogs. They were barking at each other and one family had a yappy dog that went on and on for the whole 2 hours. Neither they nor the staff made...

After a Sunday afternoon walk around Wescott (with two friends) we decided to eat in Gomshall Mill. We hadn't booked, but they fitted us in. I decided to go for the roast beef. It was fairly pricy (£22) but I have to say that I...

This place has become a new favourite for me. The new owners have done a fantastic refurbishment of the place. Food and service excellent in such lovely surroundings. Wonderful night out.

Having heard and read about The Mill. Pleased we were able to visit last Sunday. Beautiful setting outside, good service, and delicious burgers! We highly recommend 👌

Lovely gluten free lunch. Gluten free menu is extensive, staff knowledgeable and a pink plate policy. Food was tasty, good size even with the struggles of small gf bread and priced the same as the main menu. Choice of sandwiches with chips, starters, nibbles and...

We fell across this place and wow what a delight, we were served by Brian who took the time to tell us all about the place and its history. He is a aldershot fan so had a little banter about football, we are York city...

Very nice, lovely food, would recommend, will return next time we’re in the area, thank you …………………………………………………………..

A friend brought me here for tea and scones and now they don't have either... on the other hand it's a restaurant/bar now and I just LOVED IT! The service is amazing and the fish and chips delicious!! They have a lot of inside and...

There were four dogs admitted into our dining area which constantly barked and one urinated in the middle of the floor whilst we were having lunch. Although a young man came with a mop and bucket and cleaned the floor, it certainly is not the...

Delicious food in a lovely setting . We haven’t been to Gomshall for a long time and we’re so pleased that the new owners have kept the charm of the mill but updated so well. We went for lunch and sat outside by the stream...

Great afternoon/night. Gorgeous food and really friendly helpful staff. Went for lunch and ended up staying for the whole day.

Great service, tasty dishes, and drinks in a beautiful restaurant. Thank you for great anniversary dinner in a lovely place;)

Just reopened by a new owner and very nice refit throughout. Nice garden area outside. Positives were the varied menu, good choice of drinks, good portions and quality food cooked by the Ex chef from the Queens Head . Slight negatives were very slow service...

First time I've visited after many years and now new owners. This was one of the worst meals I've ever had in Surrey and I've lived here a long time. Food was tasteless and not at all as described. Very overpriced and poor quality. Both...

Excellent upgrade for this Surrey Hills classic and a really good option for family and friends. Great food, service and surroundings inside and out

A group of bank pensioners meets once a month at a range of pubs in Surrey for the sole purpose of keeping in touch. This is one of many pubs where we have enjoyed excellent food in a superb location with good friends. Gomshall Mill...

Delicious food and good service. We all ate something different and enjoyed the variety. The staff were charming and attentive.

Food was good but service is not great as understand they were busy but the totally forgot items which we requested. It was a family celebration and disappointed with service.

It was sad to see this pub close down and we only found out this week that it had reopened, so decided to give it a try. Very glad we did. The refurbishment is attractive and retains some of the old mill’s atmosphere. The food...

Testy foods are good service and very nice Refurbished we’ll go back again. We have been there for a long time after the open lockdown going back to visit never disappoints this pub.

Omg. The food was perfect The service was perfect. The price was a real surprise. Will go again and again.

We went here as a family and had a lovely time. The food and atmosphere was great, but in particular I would like to highlight the service of a particular chap called Ryan, polite, efficient and friendly. Nothing was too much trouble. A real asset...

First visit to Gomshall Mill, and we weren't disappointed. We booked a table for my husband's birthday. Food was amazing and the service fantastic in a truly beautiful setting. We look forward to visiting again soon.

Brilliant food and staff! Highly recommend and going again soon. An amazing building wonderfully conserved.

Just had a super meal, wide choice on menu. The food was delicious and hot which is so important. The waiters were friendly and though busy had time to chat & make recommendations. My friend has been through a hard time recently due to illness...

A beautifully refurbished venue where we enjoyed a delicious dinner outside on terrace with water mill in background. Customer service outstanding.

Excellent food . We had the Sunday lunch and everything was just as you would do it home . Service was fast and everyone was lovely

Great place and staff but we waited nearly an hour for a sandwich and a salad which with a drink was £50!!!!! Portions are very small. Mozzarella salad has a very small quantity of cheese and very poor quality. Definitely won't be going again.

We had a wonderful time here celebrating my daughters birthday. Food, lovely decor and amazing service. We are returning in few weeks with my parents for Sunday lunch. For me personally, I was particularly impressed with their attention to detail with food allergies, I have...

Last Saturday 7th July my family booked for my 70th birthday celebration at the mill, 15 people. Most of the food was good but myself and two others had crab cakes for a main course. The portion was two crab cakes the size of £2...

Spot on in every dept. Great staff, lovely food….will become a regular at Gomshall Mill but will also try The Castle Farnham next.😀

Food - Overcooked burgers, we had four plus another dish. - Paltry offering for a £17 burger viz: oversize bun (good visual effect) thin slice of beefsteak tomato (so thin there wasn't a whole slice) small lettuce leaf and overcooked chicken / beef burgers plus...

This is an iconic building and I was sad when it closed down. It has been sympathetically renovated and the food is delicious. It was so nice to have such a choice of GF food. The staff are all very pleasant and friendly.

Lovely relaxed dining both inside and out with a fab garden. Food was delicious and arrived in good time with friendly staff.

Sympathetically refurbished. Garden area has been nicely set out. Food scrumptious. Staff friendly. Plenty of parking. The only reason I didn’t give five stars is that I personally don’t wish to listen to music all afternoon - only on a designated music night.

Excellent brunch food with many Gluten Free options. Very welcoming staff. Super refurbishment of an historical watermill. We had the option of shaded outside seating and watched the dragonflies by the stream. Idyllic morning. We will return. Highly recommend.

Went here for dinner and it was a delight. An amazing place with great food. I had the vegan pie which was delicious and would highly recommend even if you’re a meat eater so tasty.

A busy and attractive pub in a great setting. Our meals were OK, but the greens with the Chicken Pie were so tough they were inedible. The service was lovely but the food disappointed and seemed a bit pricey.

Visited on a beautifully warm summer’s evening and sat in the garden behind the mill. It’s a beautiful setting. A good menu with lots of specials on offer. We had tempura spiced cauliflower and calamari to start - both lovely and highly recommended. We both...

Amazing place to go. Delicious food , well presented , good portion lovely atmosphere Very friendly staff.

Lovely atmosphere, garden area is newly refurbished, Visited on a hot sunny day but managed to sit under an umbrella. Food was delicious, staff were fantastic

So pleased that Gomshall Mill is back open. It’s always been a great destination for a summer pub lunch and post-refurbishment it’s even better than before. The food is outstanding and so is the service. Hands down one of the best pubs in the Surrey,...

Incredible food - absolutely lovely Sunday roast. Sat out on the terrace. Friends from New Zealand were over with us and loved the character of the pub. Can’t wait to go again.

The welcome by staff and the decor is brilliant. I love the mix of old and new for the aesthetics. Our service was superb; a really brilliant, upbeat, nothing too much trouble attitude (despite the restaurant and garden area being fully booked). The menu has...

As it is a good many years since our last group visit to Gomshall Mill, 4 of us decided to have lunch at the extensively renovated restaurant, before making a booking for around 20 bank pensioners. We were impressed by the standard of the renovations,...

Delightful lunch sitting outside on the decking Beautiful surroundings, good food, friendly & efficient service Located mid-way between Guildford and Dorking and 5 minutes walk from Gomshall station - this is a gem

Popped in for a flying light lunch during my annual long distance motorcycle service. Speaking of which, the service is friendly and efficient, befitting the lovely setting and overall ambience. The food would also have hit the mark in terms of presentation and quality. However...

First time we have been since the renovations . The food was excellent and service was great . A thoroughly enjoyable afternoon. Can’t wait to be able to go back again.

Beautiful location and wonderful food. They also have a play area with several climbing frames for the children to play on. The only reason this isn’t 5* is the service was quite slow but we were able to soak up the sunshine whilst we waited.

This restaurant has a lovely atmosphere and has been beautifully re- decorated to suit the 17th century architecture. . Lots of different dining areas and a large garden for drinks and food. Very friendly and helpful staff and prompt service even on a Bank Holiday...

This is a great place for lunch with friends. The welcome was friendly and I was offered a choice of tables. The outdoor area has plenty of tables, some in shade and some in full sun. Inside looks much more appealing than under previous ownership,...

Service was fair had to order from the bar . Food poor ,crab would be better served fresh and cold than dry and baked . Fries not fresh but tasted frozen. Wine supermarket standard and over priced

Really attractive building with lovely murals on the wall. The main menu is fairly standard, but the daily specials are great! My son had fish and chips and husband and I had dressed crab and salad - very tasty and a good sized portion. The...

First visit to newly refurbished local pub. Not been in the area long. Fantastic brand new very big and well presented beer garden with watermill and stream. Friendly service and great burgers had my myself and the kids as an after school dinner treat.

Excellent. Lovely surroundings. Didn't feel like a generic chain! Great service and delicious food.

I brought my elderly mother for lunch on Saturday after researching new places. We booked a table inside (which looked lovely with little rooms on many levels), but waited for an outdoor table. I can honestly say it’s the best pub food I’ve had in...

Very enjoyable evening although had towait a while for mains after starters . Don't want to write any more characters!!
