King William IV in Mole Valley

This is my sister and I second visit as we couldn't resist making another visit. A real, old, traditional feel to the pub, it is an absolute delight. We have only sampled the calamari (delicious), each time with a side order of chips, but both were very good, and reckon the chips are some of the best we have ever had. Cat's cooking and presentation is superb, and Harvey a charming and solicitous waiter. We can't wait to return.

As Always the best burger and service - thank you

Horrible stressful experience - ignorant manager although understand pub is family owned who in front of customers rushed around letting everyone know two members of staff had rung in sick today - I wonder why !!! Made one mistake after the other with table bookings and showed little respect towards his staff in the horrible way he spoke to them . What was meant to be an enjoyable afternoon having a quiet drink we were only too glad to leave such an environment.

Great spot, and friendly staff, but the owners really need to do up the place. The garden is a mess with just stuff lying around. Only one outdoor heater worked. Ash trays hadn't been cleared. The Shere beer had a odd taste like dirty pipes/wasn't fresh. Just gone downhill.

Our go to pub after a walk in Box Hill. The atmosphere, food and service are always lovely and we always look forward to coming back.

Warm atmosphere, attentive staff and a delicious menu (including a great vegan roast and burger burger). Looking forward to our next visit.)

Lovely Lunch... great service. Ideal location too. Thank you

The risotto was fabulous with friendly staff.

Thank you so much for the evening. The food was excellent.

We had a brillant meal, highly recommend.

A welcoming pub on a damp Friday in-between Christmas and New year... the food and beer were excellent ..a superb place to visit after a nice walk with excellent service....make a visit !

It was a really great afternoon - lovely food and great service - thank you so much.

Just returned from this wonderful establishment. I have been going to the King Bill for over 30 years. I have never had a bad experience. Great Ales, great location, lovely scran & very pleasant staff. Thank you! *****

A warm lunchtime welcome having walked from Rykas. Glad to be offered the table near the log burner. Toasty! Very friendly waitress. Good pint of guest ale from By the Horns. I had the roast duck leg with rich gravy, the kids opted for burgers with chips. One cherry pie, one apple crumble for pudding. Both delicious. Very pleased, will definitely be back!

The food was great and well portioned. Nice warm pub with helpful staff

We dropped in for a pre-Christmas dinner with some friends and went with the Sunday Roast. Absolute 10/10 meal, everything on the plate was delicious. What's even more impressive is that our waitress told us that one of the chefs named Hayden had just started today. Great service, great food and lovely old pub. The only thing I regret is not coming sooner!

Great little traditional independent pub. With proper pub grub! Loved it

And an excellent pint of Shere Drop too!!

Excellent food, tastefully prepared, delightfully served in a cosy atmosphere, dog-friendly, with a splendid view over the Surrey hills.

Great unspoilt local pub serving well cooked food at sensible prices.

Lovely small, cosy, independent pub with a large garden view a view. Sunday roast and the deserts were all really good. Efficient, friendly service. Will definitely return.

We were made so welcome and the food was great. We will be back!

One of the best pub meals I've had for a long time. I had a steak and ale pie with veg, and the best gravy I've ever tasted, accompanied by a well kept pint of Surrey Hills Shere Drop. Efficient, polite service from the young man serving, and a cosy bar with a fire on a dreich day. The prices were reasonable for this part of the world and it felt good to support a truly independent pub.

Lovely location and great views. We used to be regulars but find that the food is inconsistent and a bit overpriced. The biggest issue we have with the place though is how badly the owner speaks to his staff and customers. He can be very rude and I’ve had to bite my tongue a couple of times to avoid a situation.

My wife & I received an extremely warm welcome on what was a very rainy evening. The King William IV has a cosy feel and friendly service to match. The food we had - all three courses - was excellent. There was also a good range of drink options. Thank you for a lovely evening.

Lovely pub, warm log fire, perfect for a wet, winter's day. Great food and drink.

The food was exceptional - cosy pub, sat next to the fire. Perfect evening.

Good range on the menu, wonderful mature garden with shady options. Service prompt and friendly

A very pleasant dining experience - food excellent.

Delicious meal, friendly staff and warm and cosy environment. We all enjoyed.

The atmosphere was so welcoming and cosy with a log fire and Christmas decorations. The food was delicious! The liver & bacon was the best I have had and so good to see on a menu! The staff were lovely. We will be back!

Best pub I know, friendly staff, great food (finest chips ever!) cozy, amazing terraced outdoor area, good local beers. Highly recommended!

The staff were very attentive when our reservation didn't come through properly and promptly found us a table and made accommodations for our young daughter. The food was excellent and staff were always at hand. Would strongly recommend

One of the best Sunday roasts I've ever had - the shoulder of lamb was superb. Dessert (apple crumble) was good but a little lacking in flavour (possibly down to the apples or how they were cooked). Still very happy with my meal! Quaint, traditional pub with friendly and warm service. Open fire on cold nights and a beautiful view from the garden. Will definitely go back!

We had a Sunday Roast after a lovely walk in Box Hill and were not disappointed - the pub is charming with a fantastic view outside, a cosy atmosphere inside with the chimney and the food was delicious! A 5 stars all around.

The King William IV is a very pretty pub, just off the A24 close to Mickleham. It was built in 1790 as an estate workers ale house for Cherkley Court, which now is Beaverbrook golf course. The building itself is quite unusual, being multi-level as it is built on the side of a steep hill. The garden is terraced and the stunning view up to Norbury Park, make it one of Surrey's most attractive beer gardens! They sell some excellent local beer in very good condition! I've not eaten there for a long time but from what I've seen going on with the food, it looks very good. Something I'm not a fan of, which puts me off going more often, is the mandatory table service. This is no reflection on the staff, who are swift and friendly but I'm a bit old fashioned and just don't like faff and people fussing over me. The pub doesn't have a lot of standing room, the bar itself is small and the staff get very busy with food service; so it makes perfect sense if it's a group or you're ordering food/getting repeat drinks orders during a meal, to be served at table. However, in my case, I'm just there for the beer, either solo or in a pair and would really prefer to just buy a pint or two at the bar at take a seat! Instead, you have to be seated and given a menu, then they return for your order, come back with the drink/s, turning into a forth visit with change, should you wish to pay with cash. Bit of a rigmarole for a pint! That's just my personal gripe but this is a lovely pub worth visiting!

Friendly helpful landlord. Was quiet as bonfire night

Cosy and delicious Sunday roast with a view and a pint afterwards. The roast beef was delicious as was the gravy. Crispy roast tats, buttery veg and a huge yourkie. The staff were ever so polite, sweet and attentive. Would recommend in a heart beat.

SUNDAY Roast was absolutely delicious everything was perfect my chicken melted in my mouth and my daughters lamb was the same. Would recommend this pub any day THANKYOU

The lamb was awesome, tasty and tender, proper gravy and crisp potatoes. A cosy pub with friendly service. Well designed outside eating area. Definitely return, parking a bit of an issue though.

Fantastic food - an interesting and varied menu, all freshly prepared and delicious. We really enjoyed the open fire inside and loved the fairy lights outside. The staff were great - highly recommended.

As always a good time was had by all. Staff always helpful and friendly.

A cosy British pub dating back 200 years. It does get busy on Sundays, so if you're looking to eat you may want to book in advance.

Just outstanding. Food was amazing, lovely pub inside amd out, great views and really friendly and personable staff. Will definitely be back!

Fantastic country pub tucked away in the Surrey Hills. I’d been looking forward to visiting this pub and wasn’t disappointed. The sausage in mash is a masterpiece and the ploughman’s is epic. Thank you Massie and the rest of the team for providing a first class experience.

Fantastic views from the lovely terraced beer garden. Friendly, attentive staff. Great beer and food. Well worth a visit.

Quality food and beer at reasonable prices. Great Surrey Hills view from outside dining tables. Will definitely return.

We had a lovely Sunday roast. Food was excellent as was the service from the lovely dog-friendly wait staff. The manager was very helpful and considerate as we chose to sit outside even though it was a little nippy but he gave us blankets.

Had a wonderful meal for a special family occasion. Food was delicious and service was excellent. Warm and friendly staff ensured we had a really good evening. Thoroughly recommended.

Great food, lovely service, fantastic views. Perfect for a Sunday afternoon!

Fabulous Sunday lunch after a walk. Staff so friendly and helpful. Food plentiful and delicious. Definitely will return.

Lovely relaxed evening with good food. We had the burgers with trimmings - (definitely recommended) and sticky toffee pudding afterwards. Great value too, and the staff were helpful and very friendly. Thank you!

Excellent service and very good Sunday roast at this charming rural pub. Good beer list including several local real ales, and OK wine list

Absolutely fantastic food, if not the best pub food I’ve ever had! Such beautiful views and lovely staff, will definitely come back!!! Wonderful banoffee pie too

I have never left a review but this place is just incredible!!! I highly recommend! I came for the first time for Sunday lunch with family and despite it being incredibly busy and us not having booked we were treated with warmth. The waitresses were so lovely, smiley and attentive. The chefs were great- we had the lamb, a gluten free lamb, roast beef and risotto; the lamb was so delicious, the roast potatoes were crunchy and fluffy and the gluten free roast had gluten free gravy! The beef and risotto were also delicious! The manager was also proactive and helpful! The only down side is that it’s a difficult building to traverse with a physical disability- but that is just as it’s an old building. Thank you so much everyone working on 29/09/24 you did a fantastic job and I will definitely be coming back!!!

A most enjoyable lunch. Good food, service and atmosphere.

What a lovely finish to the weekend, excellent food, views and staff. The gravy is to die for, recommend the roast all the way.

Lovely food, friendly staff and great location.

Best roast in Surrey hands down.

Food and service very good. Disappointed that we couldn’t add a tip when paying by card.

Absolutely love this pub. Use to visit here and feed the badges 40 years ago as a kid. Unfortunately no badges today. Amazing location, great service and staff. Will be attending soon.

Our third Sunday lunch in a row - always excellent food and service!

Best ever Sunday Roast, quality was off the charts! Super friendly staff We will be back James

Always very tasty food. Great views and friendly staff. Love this pub

One of the best Sunday roasts I've had in a long time, simple as that. The location is gorgeous and if you eat outside the view is lovely, will definitely go back soon!

Amazing food and the staff were absolutely lovely and caring for every customer

Another lovely lunch outside. Great food, great views. Very quiet today - no idea why!

Lovely pub, fantastic service (thank you Eliza, Jack & Zoe in particular), great view and some great live music whilst we had our dinner! We would definitely return.

Lovely pub for a summers afternoon with live music

Fantastic meal, gorgeous setting, attentive and friendly service - lovely evening sat in the garden with an incredible view - thank you

We had an early flight from Heathrow and we were staying nearby. Found this pub by chance and what s great find! The food was delicious and the staff very friendly. Indian food an absolute delight.

Hands down the worst food I've ever had.

Came here with the family for Sunday lunch after a long walk. The beer garden has amazing views and the food was very nice. Parking is a nightmare so it’s best to walk there but it’s worth it to sit in the garden, eating nice food with a great view.

Great service and super nice food. Hidden gem of a pub. Has steep stairs or slope going up to bar and restaurant - all doable but diffuclt for wheelchairs.

Yet another great meal and excellent service. Thank you Ellie

Lovely lunch in the garden, great views, good food and wonderful customer service. Felt bad we couldn't leave a tip as they can only be given in cash!

Excellent Sunday roast, and a lovely setting with a sunny garden. Service is very relaxed and friendly

Best ploughman's I've ever had, the food was immense and the service was really quick and polite. Only moan was, sort the wobbly tables outback, drives me mental

Wonderful location, atmosphere and fantastic service. Most of the food for the table of 7 was first class. Salads were delicious, excellent burgers (chicken and beef), very generous filling in the wonderful prawn sandwich. Only the beef nachos where there was room for improvement. Beef was excellent and lots of it but it needed something else to add texture, moisture and freshness, some guacamole or salsa or both was needed. An excellent lunch and the service was perfect, wonderful staff.

I couldn’t praise this place enough! The views are stunning, the atmosphere delightful. The food absolutely scrumpy delicious - quite a few vegan options which I appreciated very much! The staff is kind, friendly and helpful. I would have liked to leave a handsome tip, but I didn’t have any sterling pounder only euros (and they only accept tips in cash.) I highly recommend it!

Fantastic pub, great lunch. Lovely staff and delicious food, would highly recommend.

Best kids meals we've seen in ages, good food overall. Friendly staff and we loved the live singing

Had dinner here today. The lady serving was really friendly and pleasant, the food was excellent, the prices are reasonable and the views are stunning.

A very good Sunday lunch, as usual, at this lovely pub. Excellent roast beef and lemon posset. My only suggestion would be to omit the red berries on the posset which tend to mask its fine flavour. A simple shortbread biscuit would be a better accompaniment. Lovely, helpful serving staff.

Lovely table outside under canvas and with great views. Staff were very busy so it took a few minutes to take our orders. Shared honey sausages and fried halloumi chips as starters followed by ham, chips and egg, smoked salmon sandwich, fish finger sandwich with cheesy fries and beef nachos. All the food was delicious. Service was good, too.

Wonderful lunch with a stunning view

Beautiful evening with lovely food and a wonderful view

Sunday roast, veg overcooked and potatoes like bricks. Sat outside and next table had a wasp nest in the speaker next to it. Staff made out they weren’t aware. Won’t be going back.

Love this place! Perfect weather and perfect view. Staff are brilliant, very helpful and friendly. Food was delicious, as always. I’m gluten free and the Angus burger was very good.

The beef roast was delicious. The young serving team were very professional. The speed of service was good. The order was all correct. It's a lovely place to sit outside when the weather is fine.

Nice view, great sea supreme and mango sauce, staff were friendly and smiling. I had such good time.

Beautiful place with stunning views and excellent food. Brilliant service as well

Beautiful spot to enjoy great, good selection of ales and great views across the open countryside

Great pub, great location, lovely food and attentive staff.

We stumbled upon this wonderful 200 year old pub. Great food, service and ambulance. Delightful scenery. Outdoor seat is plentiful yet intimate. Food options were very varied & interesting. Fresh food at good prices. Nice professional, friendly staff.

An amazing find! Great food and surroundings

Amazing garden and amazing food and amazing old school pub, proper outside gents toilets with vintage cistern and lead pipe!!

Delicious roast beef lunch, ploughman’s and bannofee pie desserts in the garden at King William on a sunny Sunday! Lovely table/view, busy, but great service from a young serving team.
