Queen Adelaide and Dragon in Epsom and Ewell - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

I decided to go to The Adelaide to see how the refurbishment went. On entering the bar I saw that the seating area was more open and seemed more spacious. Newly decorated with some excellent framed photos of Epsom on the walls. Service at the bar was friendly and the beers were excellent. I ordered the half roast chicken, which was delicious, served piping hot and on a warm plate. A most enjoyable visit and I look forward to returning again in the near future.

Excellent & tasty mixed grill Staff friendly immaculately clean

Lovely late lunch/early dinner. Plenty of choice on menu and food arrived swiftly and piping hot. Ample portion sizes. Compliments to the chef.

We love this pub , friendly staff , nice food , love our table 10

Friendly staff. Amy there manage is great

Had lunch with my colleagues was serviced by a boy called Ollie he was delightful his service was AMAZING! We’re coming back here again just for Ollie. For a newbie who started in February 2024 he’s incredible.

Friendly staff, great food. Nothing was too much trouble. Looks great after the refurb.

Since it has become a Migrant Hotel It really has gone down hill

Me and my wife were there last weekend just gone as came down from Newcastle the staff were very friendly and the food was fantastic Thanks guys

They didn’t have what I initially ordered so I had the Shepard's pie. It was awful and tasted nothing like a shepherd’s pie with possibly 5% meat content. I was told it came with vegetables, it had a small portion of cabbage and a few pieces of leek.

Not sure what happened in the kitchen today but we were served what smelt like gone off gammon with cold, soggy roast potatoes and veg. My family each ordered a burger and they were cooked within an inch of it's life and not cuttable, let alone edible. We were the only customers eating in there at the time so it doesn't really make sense as to why half was burnt and half was cold. Would it not make sense to cook it fresh? When I raised this with the bar staff they told me I was wrong and that the food was fine and proceeded to argue with me. The chef then appeared and started shouting at us saying the food was delivered fresh this morning and she had "sold loads today" - it was 1pm and we were one of 2 tables eating... Hmm... I think someone is telling lies. The whole interaction was dealt with so badly. For these reasons, I wouldn't recommend eating here. I certainly won't be back. EDIT: The response from the manager should tell you all you need to know. Argumentative bunch!

I am so disappointed with my visit today the food was good I won't lie and the young girl who served us was very nice. Sadly as we were sitting and eating with my mother in law who we come to see often and usually eat here, I can only assume 2 of their regular drinkers came and sat down and turned the large TV on above the heads of 4 ladies who were sitting directly under the TV and us to the side of it with the volume very loud. They didn't ask anyone dining if that was ok and the staff did not ask them to turn it off. The 4 ladies had to get up and move and we complained loudly and were just ignored so we to had to move tables. We then heard a customer complain about the food and was told basically there was nothing wrong with it, well as a customer facing worker this is not how you treat your customers,the worker then proceeded to tell her drinking customers about the complaint. I assume this pub just likes its drinking regulars so maybe just be a pub. Our time with my mother in law was completely spoiled and not one member of management addressed the fact but when asked by their drinking customers to turn the music off they did so very quickly. We stopped coming once before because of bad service and sadly we will not be returning again.

Decided to have few drinks with friends for my 60th. Great band Lord John Band. The Buffet was excellent & staff & music great.

Tara was the BEST! Outstanding service, so kind and kept checking on us to see if we were all okay. Loved my burger too thanks tara xxxx

Popped in on the way back from a walk, such friendly staff and food was great! Lovely atmosphere we will defo be back - a note from our daughter “best hot chocolate in town 😊” Thank you again!!

Really good pub in epsom with good food and a brilliant atmosphere. My server Tara was very friendly and always ready to help.

Enjoyable experience, food was good and Tara provided amazing service

Really like the live music. That’s why I go to the Adelaide.

I would like to thank Tara for her exceptional service and friendliness. She is a great asset to your organisation. Tara was helpful and very thorough in making sure that my order was correct. Look forward in visiting your establishment soon again.

My waitress, Tara provided an amazing service for me and my family to enjoy and food was brilliant. Will definitely be coming back!

Our waitress, Tara, very kind and helpful. Would strongly recommend and would gladly visit again.

Thank you Tara for for your great service and friendliness

Definitely a top tier pub compared to others in a 2 mile radius. Best drink prices I have found. I like the fact that the pub can have really relaxed vibes but then have amazing events like the Shindig on the last Thursday of every month which brings a community of great people together. The staff are very attentive and run by an excellent manager. One of my favourite pubs in this area

Such a lovely place with quality food and atmosphere with excellent service from Tara who was welcoming and attentive to me and my family.

The server we had, Tara provided an amazing service for my family. Food was brilliant. Definitely be coming back again!

Lovely pub which has a warm and cosy atmosphere. Quick and easy to order and food was really good. There was a very helpful server called Tara so ask for her when you go

My server, Tara gave excellent service to me and my family and was very welcoming and accommodating, definitely recommended to anyone in the area. 5 stars.

Felt very welcome. Great food and excellent service provided from Tara.

Tara provided excellent service and overall provided an enjoyable experience.

Visited this pub and had amazing service from Tara and the rest of the team, food was 10/10 had a good Sunday Roast with a range of alcoholic drinks. Would recommend everyone to pay a visit and will definitely come back for more. Amazing Pub!!

Our waiter Tara was very quick with our orders and extremely polite to us and catered for all our needs Would recommend

A great place for a local drink and a meal. Tara was especially great at making us feel welcome, she was helpful and very professional.

Lovely food & drink, reasonably priced and very welcoming staff! Tara made us feel especially welcome, as a result we’ll definitely be coming back.

Amazing service from Tara, really went the extra mile and made our experience very enjoyable - will be returning!

Tara was cool and pretty good service as well

Absolutely excellent service from Tara would recommend!

Another great night at the Shindig with good food and beer. 25th May at the Shindig, new menu at The Adelaide -very good. Lots of love music at this venue.

Regularly go here for the quiz night, great evening, nice food, relaxed and friendly. Real 'local pub' feel and the staff are very attentive.

Well run friendly pub with good food 👍

Service was great Tara went out of her way to ensure we got everything we needed food was delicious and atmosphere was kid friendly.

Staff extremely friendly, helpful and efficient. Food was lovely. Great atmosphere.

Came for dinner on Friday evening and was served by Tara what a lovely young lady nothing was to much trouble at all. Food was amazing great atmosphere.

Lovely pub great stuff great beer and food

Nice food ..Good value and nice staff

We had the mushroom starter, it was perfectly cooked with sour cream. The roasts were huge! Just a wee bit salty for me, but we took our doggy bags home. The staff are lovely and helpful, I would definitely recommend this pub

Fab fun at the Shindig once a month!

Staying at The Orchid Hotel (next-door) for 2 nights - work. I've been spending time in this pub in the evenings. The staff are all so friendly and welcoming, obviously passionate about the service they provide. The beer on offer is perfect and reasonably priced as is the food. I'm thoroughly enjoying my time here.

Possibly not the best time to review this pub, very early lunch time visit. Ordered a light lunch of chicken tikka wrap, arrived promptly, was hot and the skinny chips were crisp and hot. Cooked well, have eaten at the Adelaide before and toe food has always been good. It's a big pub and struggles at times to get a good atmosphere, Staff are polite and helpful.

It fwas quiet but the waitress and staff were so polite and even put my unfinished dinner in a great doggie bag for me. I had the mixed roast dinner and the portions were a good size. The mixed fruit crumble was the most delicious home made crumble ive had in ages with quality fresh fruit. Quiet atmosphere where we could talk relaxing 2 hours there. Thank you to kind waitress, i left a small tip and her eyes and face lit up. She deserved it and working sundays on little money its good some gratitude and kindness.

Nice boozer. Service was good. Plenty of space to chat. Nice decor. Did not have food. But easy to sit and have a pint.

Really nice pub, tasty food and great prices. Had a rack of slow cooked beef ribs pretty big meal.

Wonderful food great service staff go above and beyond sea bass out of this world. Amy was so helpful and attentive

We have driven past many times and one Sunday we decided to give it a try for the Sunday roast starting at £13+ and we were impressed with the size of the premises, how spacious the seating was and we tried, the gammon/chicken roast, and it was good. So much that we are thinking of going there again and thinking of Christmas Dinner. 🎄.

Had lunch with a friend, staff were great as was the food & drinks

Food was excellent cooked by Lily, will definitely be returning soon.

Landlady is bloody hilarious :) would visit just for the bants

The food is microwave food. Heated up, not really cooked. However it's nice tasty food and it's a very reasonable priced, the drinks are also a good price and staff very cheerful and helpful.

Excellent pub, brilliant services

Come here every Wednesday, good vibe

Really good experience. Staff very helpful

This is a great pub everyone is friendly and the staff are so attentive looking after everyone and enjoying the day.

Noisey disappointing entertainment!

Went there with family for the first time in ages food was delicious good size portions

Brilliant pub, general manager has really turned this pub around. Brilliant staff and atmosphere

Came for Mother’s Day lunch it was lovely kudos to the chefs and the bar staff who looked after us really well. Roland did a fantastic job looking after us! We will be back

Fantastic food. Family dinner we were all happy with our choices. Cooked to perfection x

Amazing food and great service for the first time coming here thank you

Shindig night . Last Thursday every month.Great live music. Varied and quality local musicians

Great live music venue, Shindig last Thursday in the month, packed with musicians playing 2 tracks each all night

Absolutely fantastic live music nights - good food and excellent staff! Recommend chef Holly’s steak and chef dippers salads

Good food, steak for the meat eaters cooked just right! Good service and great value too! 👍🏻

The meal wasn't the best but OK much smaller portions than before

Lovely pub to spend a quiet relaxing afternoon in with friends. A good menu of all the usual pub classic meals as well.

If you visit London you must visit this place

We had a wonderful on 27th with Lord John Band & a great night at the Shindig always great music.

Dog friendly pub with nice food with very friendly, polite staff. Food is tasty and nice portions too!

Great pub loved the open mic night, we shall carry on going on this night

Extremely dated atmosphere inside. We booked a table for 11.15am on a Saturday for brunch on the website. There was a brunch menu available, and it was possible to book for food at that time online. We turned up at the booked time with two toddlers, only to be told that the pub is open at 11 for drinks, but the kitchen is shut until 12pm... Why have a brunch menu and the ability to book tables from 11am, if you do not intent on serving that food at the booked time?! Other than that, it was dark and outdated inside, didn't look very appealing to sit in, and the staff member that approached us was not anything special in terms of customer service, given she could see we had arrived as a family...

The service was great. Especially from our server Roland (Epsom) who looked after our table and ensured we had everything we needed. Thank you Roland! The food was delicious, enjoyed by all.

Friendly bar staff and reasonable priced drinks

Wonderful food and service. Would highly recommend. We all had roast dinners and they were delicious. Big shout out to Roland who was so friendly, helpful and professional. Also massive thanks to the really kind lady behind the bar who kindly redid our bill after I had forgot to give her our 20% off voucher first time - we were so very grateful and sorry for the inconvenience. We will definitely be back!

Nice friendly staff and lovely pub

I have eaten here on a number of occasions. The food and atmosphere is great, and they have a number of great deals throughout the week, including a curry night offer on Wednesday.

Good Atmosphere and good customer service.

The food was good but the lunch time ciabatta was very small.

Christmas. Day. Best. Christmas. Diner in. Pub.
