Hare & Hounds in Tandridge

Only my second visit in twenty years and a lot has remained in place as a proper local pub, which is fantastic that it still exists, dart boards and a jukebox and still the most atmospheric pub in Godstone, which is full of Corporate Gastro pub clones. Yuk! Lovely ale and service from a real pub landlord. Pie and burgers hit the mark. We hope you stay in business the locals desire it.

We were made very welcome when we arrived, we could not fault our meal at all. Both were very tasty & served hot, & excellent service. Prices were very reasonable & a good choice of menu. We will defiantly return.

Back again with my friends for another get-together. Once again, the food was excellent. We've eaten here six times now and had different food each time, and we've never had a bad dish. Wonderful food, sensible prices, and a lovely traditional pub. Why this place isn't packed to the rafters amazes me. I can't recommend it enough.

Homely old pub facing the Green with really good inexpensive home cooked meals. Our lamb shanks couldn't be bettered, the red wine sauce was delicious with the well cooked tender meat. The short wait for the fresh vegetables to finish cooking was no problem - spent chatting to the friendly hostess. Parking available at the front or the public one across the road by the pond.

We were treated like blow-ins on arrival. £17.60 for a glass of wine, pint of stella and a lime & soda. I'd avoid this pub, especially if you're not local

Great pub . I take my grandson once a month and he is always so warmly welcomed.He lives nearby in a residential home and loves visiting there .

Prope pub no airs or graces , good food a selection which is homemade, if i lived closer , id make it my local , have a walk on the green after

I travelled up from Southampton for the day to meet up with an old school friend, who recommended this pub for lunch. What a great place - very friendly and welcoming manager (Kim), excellent beer (Westerham 1965) and one of my favourites off the special's board, faggots, chips and veg, made for a most enjoyable lunch. No complaints about the 'facilities' and the sunny weather meant we sat outside, which was very pleasant despite it being next to a main thorughfar through the village. Definitely hope to get an excuse to go back!

Very friendly nice atmosphere. Bar staff very helpful and knowledgeable about the area. Good location plenty of walks around the area.

Attended the Hare & Hounds for a Coronation Afternoon Tea We had a wonderful time with a fantastic tea The staff couldn’t have been more helpful and they coped extremely well considering the inclement weather prevented people sitting outside. We had a couple of children in our party and they were made to feel special with their own tea boxes which were full of goodies.

I went with two friends, and we all had a fabulous meal. Every dish was excellent, and every last bite was eaten. There was nothing pretentious about the food. It was good pub fare, well-presented, and delicious. My lasagne was excellent, the fudge cake dessert the lightest I ever had, and my friend's lemon tart was 'sublime'. Plus, it was the most reasonably priced meal we'd had in ages. The pub is small, comfortable, and charming, with a lovely atmosphere, and the service was wonderful. Nothing was too much trouble. A little gem and a wonderful find. The Hare and Hounds is now THE place for our get-togethers. We will be returning.

After a visit to a local children’s farm we decided to stop off here for some food. 5 adults and 2 young ones, we were looked after from the moment we walked in. The food was excellent pub fayre, from the home made curry to the Sunday roast. The landlady/barmaid? was excellent with our two year old, and the service in general was great. Prices are more than reasonable Recommend

Warm, welcoming, fantastic place, run by people who really care about the quality of the beer (and great food), had a BRILLIANT pint of Westerham 1965 there today after a visit to the mines... Highly recommended!

A great pub that serves great food. Located on the edge of the green with plenty of seating out the pub this place this place is well situated. We stopped for a bite to eat and the food was well cooked and quality ingredients have clearly been used. A couple of ales were available on tap that where well served. Friendly staff and quick service. By far the best of the two pubs in the village 👌🍻😀

A real true pub. No fuss no frills, just good service, excellent food ( homemade) ,good portions. Friendly staff and reasonabley priced. Some outside seating, A great pub in the centre of Godstone.

between here ,the Godstone inn and the Bell your spoilt for choice , but this is a great pub with friendly staff and friendly locals serving great food at reasonable prices,good choice on the menu and a good choice of drinks whatever your tipple ,both,had curry mine a beef and pals a thai and i could of licked the plate A+

Popped in here with the wife for lunch on the way to staying in a Spa hotel nearby. Owner/landlord was a great guy, very chatty and amenable who happily accommodated my wife's request for dishes not on the menu (Fishfinger Baguette with salad & chips). I had a Cheeseburger, chips & slaw which was really good, all washed down with a pretty good pinot and some decent beers. All in all a very enjoyable lunch at a reasonable price. We will be back next time we're in the area. Cheers. Sean & Charlie (Herne Bay)

Lovely welcome from Mark the owner. Well kept beer and Guiness enjoyed the afternoon watching the rugby with the boys. Would recommend for a relaxed drink with friends.

Been to this pub a few times now and food has always bee great and plentiful. The landlord and landlady are always very welcoming and nothing to too much trouble. A great local pub.

After the lockdowns we could finally restart our monthly motorbike club meets, Unfortunately no one had thought to tell the pub so there was no food on offer. But Jane, bless her, said no problem and promptly opened the kitchen and cooked us all a lovely meal. Fantastic service at a very friendly Inn.

Thinking that most pub restaurants would be fully booked for Sunday lunch, we thought it was worth a try, and it worked. The food and drinks came quickly served by a friendly waitress who regaled us with local stories. The Thai curry and my chilli beans were equally delicious. A very enjoyable stop for our first meal out this year.

Delightful and welcoming pub with great food and lovely staff. A really enjoyable experience and we will definitely look forward to coming back very soon.

Our car broke down outside this pub - we were there for several hours. They couldn't have been kinder or more helpful. Food (chicken green thai/ with spinach) curry was delicious. They made calls for us to get a taxi home (as RAC let us down so badly- 10.5 hours before the car was picked up) and got together staff and customers to push our car to a safer place. It all made such a horrible day so much better: Thank you!By the way, they now have track & trace and were very vigilant about customers not coming too close to or leaning on the bar.

Nice pub. Manger not interested in protecting against coronavirus, advised my husband he would not pay to sign up to track and trace, however did not even have a book you could fill in.....shame as lovely tables outside. Just not worth the risk.

A nice old traditional village pub, the waitress was very friendly and we ordered fish and chips from the blackboard. It was pretty good although the fish wasn't that fresh, the chips were great. Not especially cheap but much better value than the White Hart

Never having been to Godstone beforehand reading reviews we thought this place would be OK. We arrived and parked our car, the landlady rushed out to tell us we could not park where we were. So we moved the car. On entering the pub we got the sense it was run down, not many people in. We ordered from the menu, my partner ordered a burger with chips and salad, I ordered scampi chips and salad. The burger was very thin and my partner said it was tasteless. Scampi etc just about ok. As we were walking around we saw another pub, think it was the White Hart which looked very welcoming and also looked busy.

The night we went was a music charity evening, my dad was playing in one of the bands that night, so I came to support him with my partner in tow. We ordered drinks and food and sat down at a table in the restaurant area. We had ordered burgers and chips, it was a very busy night, and not much room to move around,the stuff were running around trying g to find the people that had ordered food.It was a bit mad and crazy, but I felt their pain, I've been a waitress before and it's not easy when its extremely busy and your the only one taking out the food. All n all it was a blast.Myself and my partner really enjoyed ourselves and it was nice to get out of Dorking, and be somewhere new.

Went there for lunch on a wet day. Nice and cosy atmosphere and the dining room was full. Choose from the lunch menu rather than the full menu. I had the soup and chicken baguette with salad and crisps, my friend skipped the starter and choose sorbet from the dessert selection. Waited a long time for the soup which was luke warm and tasted suspiciously like tinned. The baguette was truly awful, dry chicken in a mediocre baguette and very salty. My friend's sorbet was good. The coffee was the best part of the meal. Gordon Ramsey would have a field day here, rather a shame as the venue is an old coach-house with bags of character and our waitress was very good. Next time I'll choose the Bell

A proper old fashioned pub with a good range of drinks, nice food and always a very pleasant welcome from across the bar... old style!

5 of us went for lunch this week...The welcome from the staff was very friendly and they were so nice looking after us..The food was really good and great value, would definitely go back again...

Love coming here. It has a wonderful atmosphere & is a "proper" pub!Dogs are made to feel welcome with water bowls available & a biscuit treat or two!Traditional pub grub at very reasonable prices. Portions are ample & you certainly wouldn't go home hungry.Good restaurant area & plenty of tables inside & out. It has a large bar with stools with a large range of beverages.Staff are knowledgeable & helpful.Would highly recommend.

Stopped there for lunch today and the food was really good. I had the cod and chips with mushy peas, which was much needed on such a cold wet blustery day. My dog was made to feel very at home, she fell asleep on the carpeted area. Nice friendly staff and well priced. A thumbs up from me.

Popped in for Sunday lunch and it was absolutely delicious, very friendly , good range of beers and wines , very reasonably priced

We visited as an extended family of 12. There was only one person at the bar at also being the waitress at the same time.I ordered a Dexter burger for £11.50. It was bland and well overcooked. It came in a very cheap bun with a side of chips. I wish I had saved the money!The kids ordered pizzas that were Chicago town mini deep dish pizzas. These can be had for £1 for two in the supermarkets.The chili looked very bland, but they made up to it with enough rice to feed most of China.When we commented on the burger, we were met with a disinterested shrug.I wouldn't come here again. There are far better establishment available locally to spend your money at.

We stopped in to this lovely pub/restaurant yesterday for Sunday lunch on our way through. We received a lovely welcome on walking in through the door even though we weren't locals and it was our first time. I ordered Roast Beef and my husband had the cold ham, egg and chips. Both dinners were lovely. I haven't had such a delicious roast dinner for a very long time. Not only were the vegetables freshly cooked, the beef a good cut, it was also piping hot which makes a change these days. Absolutely delicious and if we lived nearer it would become a local for us. Both the owner and a staff member came up and chatted with us which was so friendly. Bring back service like this everywhere please, sadly it has been lost over the years. A very good experience. Would recommend highly.

Visit was arranged by our walking group organiser. As we were a group of 16 we gave our lunch order at around 10.30 am prior to our walk to give them a chance to organise it upon our return at 13.00. Our tables were ready when we got back and we systematically went through our food and drinks orders, we were very soon relaxing at our table with our drinks. When our food arrived it was a generous portion of good, wholesome well presented home cooking, an absolutely joy. The service was great, friendly and efficient, a proper pub with proper food and friendly staff - really - how often, in this trendy gastro pub chain, day and age do you get that. An absolutely nugget.

Such a lovely place. I've been there in one monday when there was live music and it was excellent! Nice beer, good staff!

Excellent, honest pub grub ~ enjoyed by all our group members after a recent walk (a weekday lunchtime). Printed regular menu and daily specials available ~ we had a choice of three different Soup dishes.

We were in the area with our dog and decided to treat ourselves to dinner out.

We stopped off here on the way to Somerset from Kent. There had been a crash on the M26 so delays were mounting. Obviously that’s along drive, so a stopping off point was very welcome.

We all enjoyed our meals whilst we sat outside in the sun. Standard pub fare, served with gusto. We had a little wait for our main courses, but it was worth it. No Sunday roast.

Loved this place. Friendly staff, cracking food, lovely atmosphere, great little pub in heart of Godstone.

When entering the pub you get a very warm welcoming feeling. The staff are very friendly .The landlord was very welcoming and friendly very talkative with a good sense of humour 10 out of 10 one of the best pubs iv visited this year

We were passing through the village on our way home. The pub we have eaten at before is now a mini supermarket.

Un pub buscando un poco desgastado en el pueblo verde. El menú es corto, totalmente desprevenidos y claramente preparado británico en casa. Hay una amplia variedad de cervezas locales y un ambiente genuinamente pubby. La comida, cuando llegamos, era generoso y, como su presentación general, sencillo, sin pretensiones, saludable sabroso y bueno. Postres tartas de un tipo u otro y, de nuevo, claramente hecha en casa son excelentes. El servicio, hoy, un tranquilo Sábado, fue la amabilidad, la eficiencia y el encanto personificado. Los precios son muy buena relación calidad-precio. no es Cordon Bleu, pero entonces, no pretende ser. Si quieres algo sencillo, de buena calidad y a un precio razonable, entonces este es tu lugar.

Mi esposa y yo fuimos a dar un paseo y Godstone pasó por aquí para el almuerzo. Parecía bien dentro y no tengo ninguna queja sobre el servicio, sin embargo los bocadillos que pedimos eran extremadamente decepcionante. Mientras el pan utilizado no era realmente duro, que ciertamente no son especialmente frescas. Mi sándwich era supuestamente el queso Cheddar y cebolla caramelised pero en realidad habían utilizado en su lugar. chutney Por la esposa de bacon y brie sándwich era tan malo que ella mitad izquierda. En el lado positivo, las fichas sirve con eran bastante razonables.

Visité este pub para encontrarse con un colega de negocios para el almuerzo la semana pasada y entramos a encontrar bastante tranquila con sólo un par de chicos de mediana edad sentados en el bar.

Qué día para visitar un pub regentado por un ventilador de newcastle cuando una lectura partidaria. Tenía ganado el Newcastle de la Liga así que me dejan entrar. Un montón de gente que parecía saber de cada uno, pero lo suficientemente amable. Deportes tv y una mesa de billar. No se sirve comida cuando fui, pero una pequeña zona para comer separadas al final del edificio.

Vine aquí hoy para comer el domingo, y quedé muy impresionado. Llevamos a nuestro perro, lo que significaba que comimos en el pub en vez de la sección de restaurante - no es un problema.

From the moment I first walked in to The Hare and Hounds , I have been made to feel welcome and almost like part of the furniture. Its good to find a proper pub as there are hardly any left ...and this is one of...

Tuvimos una gran comida en el Hare & Hounds, excelente comida y servicio, me puedo quejar de nada. Sin duda vale la pena una visita.

Gran lugar para local y muy asequible. Para el almuerzo y comida de los domingos. Gente muy amable y un gran lugar para estar alrededor de

Unreal, just walking the dog ( me and my partner) and thought we might pop in for a swift one. We sat outside but it started to rain and went in with our very well behaved dog that everyone had been admiring. Got very short thrift told cant bring him n without a lead (no other dogs in there and he was totally under control) and we would have to finish our drinks in the rain. We did so and are drinking inside at a very friendly pub, the white Harte in Bletchingly just along the road - we shall not go back to the Hare and hounds with or without our dog. P.s. who's the busier pub, not the hare and hounds. Not rocket science.

As soon as you walk in the kind folks at the hare and hounds pub will greet you as soon as step in to their establishment, This really makes you feel happy and in a safe environment. They are also vey good because they are incredibly Dog friendly. this is a great old fashioned pub that is great, even though I do not believe that the fact that they are working on the restaurant so its great for what a pub is but doesn't really live up to the restaurant part.

This place is what I call a "pub pub". And a fantastic one at that!No it hasn't got swanky decor, or a posh wine list. It does have delicious home cooked food, real ales and a warm welcome! We popped in on the off chance they had a table as we were visiting the area. They accommodated us (6 adults and 3 children) straight away.Food was fantastic! It says home cooked on the front of the pub and that's what we got. The ham was off the bone and cooked so it melted in your mouth. The Lasagne was home made. Lovely braised lamb shanks came out with minty gravy. I had the last rib of beef off the specials board which had an amazing flavour and fell off the bone. The gravy served with it seemed to be made with bourbon which complimented it perfectly.The vegetables were steamed fresh and to perfection with a good bite to them. There was a choice of potatoes with all dishes.All the kids meals came with a choice of pudding which they thoroughly enjoyed.We all ordered pudding which were delicious traditional sponges / tarts etc and the portions were generous too. The land lady behind the bar made conversation with us and the kids. Very friendly. She changed the channel on the nearest tv for the boys who wanted to watch the football.If you want proper food and a relaxed atmosphere this place is ideal. I'd think it the perfect place to refill your tanks after a long Sunday walk. Thank you Hare and Hounds for a wonderful meal!

Realy nice friendly pub with a great lunchtime menu and good beer and wine. The Grilled Mackerel Salad is particularly good!

Came here in the summer we was all hungry and not familiar with the area But came across this little gem of a pub We were all served promptly and the server was very friendly and informative Would definitely check in here again if I'm in the area

The pub it self is very welcoming the staff very friendly.The menu is quite extensive with a lot of great meals...the only criticism I have is the the food came out over done. The steak I ordered medium rare came out well done, the onion rings where over cooked and the squid was like rubber.Presentation was amazing but like I said the food was over done.

Went for a mid week business lunch. Was early so not busy, good helpful service from a cheery lady. Pub menu as you would expect and the burgers were well cooked.Reasonably priced and sells good beers and lagers.Would go again if in the area.

Went here after the air show in Farnborough Not sure about it but we went in for tea well I was pleasantly surprised 16th century. Very old but the proper home made food was fantastic I wouldn't hesitate to call in here again I'll put this in the top five I had gammon which was lovely no waste on my plate or in my group even the deserts were very nice perfect place

I've visited the Hare and Hounds once or twice (maybe a few more times than that!) from the first time I went there I've been made welcome, the locals are always happy to chat and make you feel part of the village, and it's a proper old pub, not just another boring chain pub. The pub has a decent jukebox, a pool table and a dartboard, as well as a coupe of large TVs for sporting events. The restaurant area is pleasant and the food is good and reasonably priced.The Hare and Hounds also has its own cricket team, playing on the green during the summer, with plenty of outside seating.Dogs are also welcome, which is always pleasant.

Great time had as usual. This place never promises anything it can't deliver. It's a great English pub with atmosphere, great locals and great food.What more do you need. If you want silver service and to get ripped off this place is not for you.And the staff are not bad either. Best eatery in Godstone

Popped in here on Sunday for a bit to eat and i must say will def return. The look is slightly dated compared to the generic main pub chains but do not let this put you off. Ordered drinks and set up a tab and looked the menu, they also have a specials board too. I chose the Short Rib of beef with mash and veg and i must say that it was well worth the £10.50 price tag. It was cooked really well and the gravy was fab! The veg - mash/broccoli/cauliflower/red cabbage/carrots/swede mash/brussel sprouts where all great too. Wife had the burger which looked nice and she had no complaints. They also had a nice fire going, which my wife made us sit next too ....To be honest if you are in the area and want a nice lunch for a good price then I would choose this over all the pubs in Godstone.

Had an early-evening meal there with a group of walkers. The staff were helpful and obliging, the food was served promptly and was tasty and excellent value. The beer was good too. Some recent reviews have been poor but our experience was consistent with the latest more positive reviews. Would certainly go back.

I cannot praise this pub enough for the friendly service and the quality of food which was both superb and reasonably priced. Obviously they source much of their produce locally and this is reflected in the quality. I would not hesitate to recommend this pub to my friends and family and will surely return. Also dog friendly.

On new years day whilst walking the Surrey Inns Kanter, an annual orienteering event around Surrey navigating, like the title says between pubs.Just over half way on the 12 mile route one of the pubs was the Hare and Hounds. It is opposite a village green and must be a great place for a weekend lunch or just a drink in the summer.The car park is large and was packed which is always good sign, along with the home made food sign it was not a hard decision to go in. This is a walker (with muddy boots) and dog friendly pub. It serves bar food and has a restaurant, we only had the bar food, not really dressed for the restaurant.Our order was home made Butter bean, ham and leek soup £3.50, Baked Jacket with cheese and beans £5.95 and I had avocado and bacon baguette £5.95. Along with a large wine, pint of cider and a pint of bitter the lot came to £27 quid. The food all arrived in good time and was of good portions and quality. On the whole a very nice pub. Would I go back, certainly and might even make a point of it when the weather improves.

After seeing this pub advertised as DOG FRIENDLY, I went in for a drink yesterday tea time with my two very well behaved Manchester Terriers. The bar man pointed at my dogs and asked me "how long are you going to be here with THAT"? My flabber was well and truly gasted! I told him only about 20mins, and he agreed to serve me. Absolutely outrageous!

Booking a Christmas meal for 16 bikers is harder than you think, even when it's a bunch of older couples like us. But we were made very welcome, the food was good, plentiful, hot and well served. A great time was had by all.

Popped in for impromptu meal. The place looks so nice from outside with a lovely view of the green opposite. Sadly, found the bar staff only interested in the locals, slightly intimidating atmosphere. When food arrived the chips were reheated remnants and overall the food was not great.Its not somewhere I would go again.

Our 2 families incl 6 kids were travelling back from a holiday and wanted a quick, filling lunch on a sunday - not the easiest group to accommodate. It was relatively quiet with lots of locals but we were made to feel very welcome. The food arrived quickly, it was perfectly adequate - good priced children menu and some nice specials. Clean plates all round. The staff were very helpful and particularly tolerant of the children. Did the job for us and would go back again .

Lovely food and great coffee served in relaxed surroundings.Plenty to choose from on the menu with something for everyone.

We chose this pub rather than the nearby White Hart because we didn't want pub food that was a standard menu that you can find anywhere. The White Hart is a Beefeater. The pub was everything you'd expect from a country pub and the waitress who was very busy and appeared to be alone was friendly and helpful. The food was ok. We both had ham, egg and chips. It was slightly overpriced but well presented and came with a nice side salad. The eggs were cold and the chips overdone but the ham and salad were tasty. We decided to stay for dessert. I had choc fudge cake and cream, I had hoped the cake would be warm but it wasn't. It was average but good value at £2.95. My husband had the Bakewell tart and custard. The custard was ridiculously hot. We'd had to wait a while for it to arrive and then wait again for it to cool down. Half way through my husband gave up eating it because the spoon was so small it was like eating with a teaspoon, not easy with custard. I doubt we'll be returning.

Food tasted perfectly adequate, but had I known prior to visiting it had only 2 star hygiene rating I never would have visited.This is a clearly a pub for local people. Didn't feel particularly comfortable there. People smoking at the entrance door.

Situated right in the middle of Godstone, the Hare and Hounds is a delight. It retains all the atmosphere of a village pub, with a strong local regular customer base, whilst providing a welcoming respite to the weary traveller. Food is locally sourced and freshly cooked. It's on our list to re-visit soon.

This is the only "proper" pub in Godstone village.The food is mostly homemade and generous portions are given. The menu has a good range & caters for all tastes. There is also a children's menu. Also the prices are very reasonable.There are tables outside overlooking the green & in the warmer months cricket can be watched whist supping an ale.There is a large screen to watch sport, but this is in the upper area & does not affect quiet dining in the restaurant area.It is child & dog friendly.I would highly recommend this pub for either a drink or a meal - or both!!

Met with some friends here recently. The barman was very friendly, welcoming and looked after us all very well. The menu was reasonably good with a specials board. We all enjoyed our meals and thought they were well cooked and good value. This is how you might remember a good old village pub. Long may it continue.

Popped in for a quick drink and ended up staying over an hrThey were so friendly and a customer even wrote a recipe down for me for homemade baileys! Pool table and games machine. Its what it should be

I have very recently moved into the village and have been made extremely welcome here. I think the landlord and landlady are lovely and the atmosphere is friendly. In the past I have enjoyed sitting outside and watching whatever is happening on Godstone Green be it the cricket, the summer village fete or the fair in the Spring. The other pubs in the village are fine but, for the genuine article, it has to be The Hare and Hounds.

just a great time wine tasting evenings a must a large beer garden plenty of parking everyone very friendly and food that is wonderful nothing was to much trouble and my mother is very difficult to please bed and breakfast and horse racing not to far away i was in heaven evenings a must

On entering the pub found it to be very tired and shabby,had a look on the menu and decided to go for cod and chips and mushy peas. When it arrived it looked as if it came out of a frozen box and tasted not nice even birdseye would have been embarressed by it.The mushy peas turned out to be frozen peas The staff were not really helpfull at all. In future we will continue to drive pass.

godstone is an ideal place to meet people it has a very good location j 6 m25 ideal for people coming from the coast the hare and hounds is a great pub and the food is very well priced all the staff are very helpfull i visit the on a regular basis and have never had a bad beer or meal the location over looking the cricket green is fantastic it is nice to go to a real pub alot of places you go to now are chain pubs and are all the same you could be anywhere real pubs are becoming very few and it was realy nice to go to a real pub before the all turn in to burger kings or coffee shops

We stopped at the Hare and Hounds for lunch on a long walk.We ordered a simple lunch - stilton ploughmans, gammon ploughmans and a bowl of chips - and we had a couple of pints of shandy. The bill was £30. The bread was warm and nice. However, the meals didn't come with butter, and when we asked for some we were provided with a paltry amount.The Stilton was not a very good Stilton. The gammon was good.The salad was frankly akin to garnish. it was basically a deconstructed cheese/ gammon sandwich.There are nice views over the green from sitting outside but the benches are, at a minimum, in need of refurbishment.The landlady (if it was her) did not seem particularly happy on the day we visited. The inside of the pub was not great. The toilets need refurbishing.We wished we'd visited one of the other establishments locally.

We live locally and have tried this pub several times over the last three years, last time was last month.Fabulous location oposite village green where you can have a pint and watch cricket etc. Inside the pub is tired and shabby. Landlady appears unhappy in her work as she was soooo miserable and grumpy. Totally blanked anyone that was not a regular. Odered burger and chips and got tepid, reheated fragments of old chips. The burger could have been used to re-heel your shoe.It is a shame as from the outside it is such a lovely looking pub in a great location that seems so inviting. Each time I have been inside, the regulars stop and stare (you expect the tumbleweed to roll past) and the staff have the knack of making you feel like they are doing you a huge favour taking your money for their food and drink. I have always found the beer good, but the food is nasty.I did go on a quiz night and again found the staff only interested in the regulars. Shame.

I often visit the Hare & Hounds with my wife and daughter for dinner, The food is excellent and price is excellent. They allways leave off of bits I don't want, and my 3 year old has bespoke 'off the menu' meals as we are both fussy eaters.

Lovely hosts, beautiful food, friendly emmerdale atmosphere, so cheap. But slow granted but its because its properly home cooked and very much worth the wait. Love it...... Gotta try it!!!

I visited this establishment on a business trip with a colleague for drinks. The only cash notes I had in my purse were denominations of £5. While paying I was told that these notes were not accepted because staff could not verify authenticity of them which is surprising considering all bank notes contain security features. I offered to pay by card and was told that a transaction fee would apply. To avoid the fee I was left counting together change from my purse. I found the experience embarrassing and unnecessary.

Very good nice to go to a real pub. friendly, helpful staff. The food was tasty,wonderful fresh vegetables ( which is very rare these days). The steak was delicious and so was the obviously homemade pepper sauce - it had a kick like a mule!!

M friend and I visited this pub on Thurday night. The staff were attentive and the beer was to a good standard. The interior was stand old world.However the food was terrible and over priced. In fact I would say that the steak I had was the worst bit of meat I have paid for.The specials board was interesting, but I and my friend qwill not be going back.

Despite it being very quiet the lady behind the bar seemed very stressed/rushed/grumpy !Quite a good specials board but the atmosphere was spoilt by thebar staff.

Arrived in a walking group, thirsty and ravenous. We'd booked a table but the place was practically empty. Ordered shepherds pie (£7.50) It took a long time to arrive, and was very poor. Other diners ordered things that they were later told were off, but that was after waiting some time. Service was surly. I would not recommend.

great food,drinks price is good,owners are great,although couple of staff a bit miserable,great for walkers,cyclists and dog walkers as its one of very few places that welcome well behaved dogs

Beer ok but food poor, bearing in mind there were no more than a dozen people in the pub the standard of food was poor and the service not much better, the food was reasonably priced but the quality wasn't there. would not recommend. Had good memories of this pub so very disappointed.

Food was not great and the device terrible. Have been there twice and the same experience both times

A nice old pub in the heart of Godstone village. A decent pint of real ale. But if I was asked to rank the pub food I have eaten in more than forty years the offerings in the Hare & Hounds might make a short list of one for the bottom slot. Shamefully poor.
