Scarlett Arms in Mole Valley - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

We went for a quiet Sunday Lunch at this charming little pub in Walliswood. I wanted the pork loin roast and my son wanted the roast lamb, sadly one was not on the menu and the other was sold out we think? We chose roast beef as an alternative which had ample gorgeous beef, lovely vegetables but drowned in a very watery gravy with no taste. I can only assume it was made with a few granules as it ruined the otherwise excellent meal. Big shame, please can this be resolved as I would definitely return otherwise. Maybe serve the gravy separately…?

After looking at reviews on Trip Advisor, we decided on the Scarlett Arms for our Sunday lunch. What a bitter disappointment it was. When you look forward to your main meal of the day, it makes it worse when you get a bad meal. We decided to have the roast Lamb. Whay can I say.. I got a plate of fat for my dinner. Just no meat at all. Our friend had half fat and Lamb. What I would like to know is, when the cook/chef puts that fat on a plate with no meat, they cant think oh that looks good. Talking about the roast. We all got 3 slices of carrot, 3 slices of Courgette (what the hell is Courgette doing on a roast dinner) ONE repeat One smallest Florette of Cauliflower you have ever seen. The gravey was as thin as water and not what was on the menue. At £17.50 this was very expensive for a roast dinner of this sub standard meal. The deserts were great. What is wrong with pubs putting the cheapest veg on a roast dinner. I did complain and my meal was taken of the bill without protest or an explanation.

I feel rather conflicted about this venue. A pretty and quaint pub? Absolutely! Interesting low ceiling, interior with a warm feel to it? Yes! Nicely maintained beer garden? Another ‘yes.’ Venue was pleasantly busy outside, when four of us arrived here, on a weekday, late afternoon. I’d been told by a couple from Oxshott that the food here is very good and the Fish and Chips which were ordered by two of our group, were apparently excellent. So, why do I feel conflicted? I think it’s me being slightly unfair, perhaps…. It’s the view, or lack thereof….Walliswood isn’t really remarkable, in comparison to many of the nearby, adjacent villages, and that was my only slight problem with the location, solely.

We came across this pub by accident after leaving Hannah Peschar Sculpture Gardens just a few minutes away. Really pleased we decided to stop. Parking immediately opposite the pub. A friendly welcome at the bar. A pub with character and obvious history. We took our beers and sat in the garden under a sunshade. Just as well, as it was a September heatwave. Sandwiches arrived soon after. Tasty and good value for money. Pity we live so far away as we'd happily return on a regular basis. Recommended.

Our neighbours recommended this pub so when drove over on the off-chance they might have a table for us. We were not hopeful as it was a Sunday and the car park opposite was almost full. But the really friendly staff managed to find us a table and we had a lovely Sunday lunch. My nut roast was top class. A nice couple of pints of Badger bitter too. The very hard working waitress apologised the food might take a while but it arrived quite quickly, piping hot. All in all a really lovely experience. Great service, good food and drink, and ample parking.

The Scarlet Arms in Walliswood is such a friendly pub. Lovely atmosphere. We took my young puppy and were made so welcome. The food is excellent and reasonably priced . We will definitely be going back. The best pub food I have eaten in years. Thank you for a great lunch.

Been about three times to rhis pub now. Each time the food has been outstanding and delicious. Today I had smoked cheddar sandwiches on granary. A very tasty side salad accompanied. Never had such delicious sandwiches

Great location and nice to visit a real pub as opposed to a gastro pub. Food was good although the barman who we think was the governor, was rather moody and not at all welcoming. Seemed ok with the locals but seemed to be preoccupied with us. There was a very friendly younger female who cleared our table at one point and had a much better attitude. Never got her name but she had quite long hair tied in a ponytail. Anyway, yes we would recommend the pub, food was good and location but due to the miserable attitude of the barman we will give it a miss.

Tucked away on a quiet road, this is the kind of pub you want to find but which usually evades discovery. A pretty setting with outside tables set well apart, a friendly welcome and a menu which some might find limited, but which caters for all tastes. No pretensions, excellent food served promptly and with a smile, and good value for money, even with the 10% service charge added. In summary, a place to revisit and discover that it's just as good as the last time we came.

Popped in for a lovely dinner with my partner and son really friendly and helpful staff and the food was amazing really enjoyed it.

Fantastic Sunday lunch out at The Scarlett today staff were so accommodating, food portions really generous and everything was cooked to perfection. Extra gravy automatically bought out with our roasts really can’t fault it at all.

Well this is a wonderful little gem of a pub, nestled in Surrey countryside, with a lovely garden, but a group of friends and I visited on 30th November and we decided to eat inside. The fire was crackling in the grate and the Christmas decoration were just being put up! Danny the Landlord is a very good host. The food offered on the menu was varied, and our group of 13 ordered a host of different lunches and not one of us was disatissfied with our choice of grub! The meals were all served spontaneously despite their varitation from sandwiches to curries! The ambience was very jolly and the fire crackled away beside us, making a jolly early festive feel to the whole lunch. When the meals arrived, (and it was pretty quick, considerering the diversity of choices), the food was simply delicious and I must say abundant - I couldn't finish mine and had to take the rest of it home in a conveniently supplied box. I would thoroughly recommend this fabulous little pub and have visited quite a few times and it never fails to disappoint.

We found this place after a friend recommended it,the weather was very kind to us and we were able to eat outside,great menu and staff very friendly.nice atmosphere.

Beautiful location, lovely menu. We both had the burgers which were delicious. Very good wine list. The perfect way to spend a summers evening in a Surrey village.

Went down one Saturday evening with a friend. I ordered the Vegan burger, he had the home-made pie and we both had a pint. Service was really good, food fantastic and the beer was very nice as well. So good in fact that I took my daughter down a few days later. I had a warm salad, she had the vegan burger and the staff kindly made us some Pimms, which was excellent as it was a warm summers evening and we were sitting outside. Again, service was really good, food fantastic and the drinks excellent. Happily I am a local, hadn't been down for years but now its going to be a regular occurrence as cannot fault the food, service or drinks. Well done to the Scarlett Arms team!

Outstanding food, great service, food beautifully presented and absolutely delicious. Exceeded expectations, well done Team Scarlett.

A nice old traditional pub used by locals. I am not local but was treated very well. Food was way better than most pub food, the chef has really thought about making it taste nice., Attractively served and fresh, I had pie which was home...

The food was exceptional, chef did an excellent job. The service was fantastic. Thank you for warm welcome. Cannot recommend highly enough.

What a little gem!!! This pub is situated in a quiet village in Surrey, close to West Sussex and boasts an amazing garden and beautiful open fires inside. My husband and I visited here on one of their special offer evenings 'fish night', which was...

We visited the Scarlett Arms while staying in the local area and we're so glad that we did. It's lovely pub with a great atmosphere, well kept real ales and amazing food. The staff were wonderful, with a big shout out to the manager who...

3 of us went walking in the area and parked in the public carpark directly opposite the pub. Went in for lunch and it was superb. The menu refers to "The Scarlett Arms (Notorious) Homemade Pie of The Day" and that phrase doesn't do it...

So pleased we chose the Scarlett Arms for a birthday celebration lunch with our daughter. Sat outside in the peaceful garden for a drink and then went inside the cosy dining area for our lunch. The roast beef that two of us had was perfectly...

Very quaint county pub in a lovely location. Great food, decent ale(Badger) and very friendly staff. Highly recommend visiting here.

Excellent lunch. Table outside on sunny day. We both had the burger of the day which was excellent. Not cheap but very good. Drinks were good and service was good humoured. All in all very good.

Excellent. A real country pub. I visited last Friday and had a magnificent Bacon sandwich. Ideal after a bike ride. Probably the best bacon sandwich ( very substantial with lettuce and tomato). Very pleasant service and served in a Covid secure manner. The establishment in...

Gorgeous pub, we are regulars. Particularly impressed this weekend by the pie of the day, which was chicken and mushroom. Delicious proper pie! Undoubtedly the best we have ever had. This pub is a firm favourite for us. Thank you!

We had a lovely Sunday lunch at the Scarlett arms, delicious food and a great service, nothing was too much trouble. We will be back again soon! Thank you

Four of us went to the SA today, and had the most amazing Sunday lunch. Food was incredible, huge and delicious portions, a proper Sunday roast! Staff were very friendly and welcoming, we had the choice to eat inside or outside (in the lovely garden,...

Glass of wine at £6.85 is too much, food adequate but most concern tables too close and staff not wearing masks or visors, beware

A nice walk in the woods followed by a good lunch at the Scarlett Arms. The Stilton burger was the best I’d had in a long time. Pint of ale in great condition especially considering it was the first pour of the day. Go hungry,...

A truly charming pub. Lots of atmosphere and character, and obviously well loved by locals. The food was top notch, and my boyfriend is a burger snob, he was very impressed. My sea bass was delicious. The staff were very friendly and attentive. Will definitely be back when we are in the area. What good British pubs are all about.

Great atmosphere, lovely food, perfect country pub in a lovely area within the Surrey Hills. Very well kept with extensive gardens.

The staff are excellent, very friendly an welcoming in this beautiful country pub. The food is great quality local produce with some interesting choices on the menu. The pub has a lovely atmosphere it has open fires in the winter giving a cosy feel it also has a very nice garden in a beautiful country setting highly recommend

Nice atmosphere and good food in this typical pub in the middle of a lovely countryside Wine quite decent and good service

Fabulous Sunday roast in a beautiful pub garden - what more could you want. Roast lamb and roast chicken were both cooked perfectly. Great selection of veggies and a nice gravy. All reasonably priced and friendly service too. High chair for the baby too and nice comfy garden furniture. Thanks, we will be back.

We used to go here quite a bit a few years ago when it was under a previous landlady and the food was always very good and I had reviewed it and posted my photos of my meal with the review It has changed hands a couple of times since then and although the new owners are friendly and the food we had was okay, I felt the portions were small and overpriced. I wouldn't rush back.

Went on a Tuesday evening, there were with plenty of diners. Good menu choice. A lovely country pub that allows dogs in. Warm and friendly staff. The food was scrumptious.Danny has decorated and put an additional bar in since taking over as well as an additional seating area in the garden. The pub is also child friendly with a bouncy castle.

After spending some time at Dorking in Surrey,we decided to revisit one of our favourite places which is in Walliswood.This pub is just off of the A29 before Ockley is a wonderful quaint place in a quiet village.Even though as we discovered it is now under new management we were warmly welcomed, the food was excellent and the surroundings were just as good.If you are in the area,its well worth a visit. Many thanks to the staff there for a superb lunchFrom Ray, Rosemary, and our dog Susie.

A family favourite, loved the fish and chips . Visited with our family who live nearby. Good beer well kept, lovely old pub. New menu bit limited think it needs a few for offers especially a chicken dish that is not a burger. Other than that it’s a lovely pub .

This pub is one of the best I've ever been to. It is so pretty with a great atmosphere. The staff are Fab and very friendly, the food is really good and very reasonably priced. A great place to visit, just go there you will NOT be disappointed.

The food was exceptional and priced very reasonably. The atmosphere in the pub was welcoming with both fires lit.

fantastic little pub beautiful inside with lovely large open fires Danny is an exceptional host food is fabulous v well priced we went for mothers day and they did mothers day goodie bags for the mums what a nice touch ! highly recommend

We had a great Saturday out with friends eating at this pub. Danny and his team were all responsive to our needs. (For example, we wanted to share a Baked Camembert but one of us was gluten-free. Happily they supplied gluten-free bread to go with the normal fare.) Very friendly atmosphere and they welcome dogs. Will be back again soon!

Staff were wonderful and friendly plus really lovely food! Can’t recommend highly enough, we will definitely be back!’

The friendly bar man served me Avery nice pint while giving us a description of the meal on the menu we went for the beef pie mash and a rater lovely veg I find it difficult to tell you how good it all was neadless to say an afternoon nap ensued

This is a typical old English country pub - not so many left these days. I love everything about it. Low ceilings, big warm fire, locals propping up the bar on a Sunday afternoon, free (and generous) off-cuts on the counter if you have missed the Sunday roast, grea beer and general bonhomie - all of this goes to make for the perfect English pub experience. The only thing missing is the sound of a ball against the bat...but then it is winter! They even have conker competitions. Brilliant.

Lovely bar staff - great food and beautifully presented - log fires low beams - great country pub . Wish it was near enough to me to make it my local .

Under new management. Danny and his team are doing a great job at making this a welcoming traditional pub. Very impressed with menu selection and food presentation and taste.

We met up with some friends who own horses and the whole place was full of their riding mates.....a very community atmosphere and lots of laughter. The food was fantastic and very reasonable. We will go back!

Staying locally with family, we decided to have a date night at the Scarlett. The food and service were excellent - the steak in the pie just melted in the mouth and puddings were delish!! We would thoroughly recommend this place. Only one suggestion - to have a print off of the menu - I know a chalk board saves trees, but it would save having to do a little dance around people at the bar to see everything on offer

I booked based on the reviews on here. We visited on Saturday evening to catch up with friends. Lovely open fire, friendly staff and traditional pub grub at pub grub prices. Not an extensive menu but it is a small pub. Can't wait until next summer to try the outdoor seating area after a walk with the dog through the Surrey Hills.

We went here for the second time in 2 years and the management are SO nice and the food is great great pub food. It is a great pub proper pub in an amazing part of the country. Lots of great walks around here and well worth a walk to have lunch here at the end.

Pub recently changed management.

If you want to visit the quintessential English pub from bygone days then the Scarlett Arms is for you.

Cozy pub in the countryside. Great menu, good selection of beers and friendly staff. Nice seating area outside.

Oh dear!!! Went for lunch before meeting friends for a walk. Lovely pub in a beautiful village. Parking opposite. Free Wi-fi.

The Scarlett Arms is our local pub. The only one that we can walk to, and the only one for miles around that serves cooked to order, pub grub!

My husband and I visited today ordered sandwiches and beers but were not told on ordering that we would have to wait an hour. Great shame as the food was excellent but the service terrible. Will not be returning.

Having acid reflux I need very plain meals with no dressings or strong flavours - I had excellent seafood salad with gluten free bread - kitchen staff came to check my requirements - at the same time my friend was able to have all the trimmings - were other things on the menu I could have had with a bit of adaptation.

Lovely pub but food issues ruined visit

This was our local until we recently moved. We popped in there tonight’s & was pleasantly surprised to find a menu to suit all and at s great price. The staff were very attentive & effIcient. We had a starter followed by a tasty chicken & ham pie with mash & peas for my husband & I had delicious Morrocan chicken on a skewer with Greek salad, fries & pitta bread, so filling I couldn’t finish it all & hubby helped out by taking some chips. We will definitely go out of our way to go back there so I can’t understand an earlier criticism when it has for us been the best meal & service that we have had for a long time! Compliments to the chef & staff!

We found this place completely by chance, but we are so glad we did. A lovely place for lunch on a hot summers day. The staff were helpful and friendly, and they had a high chair for our toddler. Food was delicious, I had the chicken burger, and my husband had some chicken skewers with Greek salad. All lovely, and very reasonably priced. Will be back for sure!

Stopped here whilst out cycling on really hot day in the Surrey Hills. Superb service from the landlady, Gill - sorted us out with cold drinks, coffee and cake, before filling my water bottles with iced water. A real gem of a pub!

Went for lunch on an absolutely packed Mother's Day. Every table booked out. Fast friendly service and the food was cooked to perfection. High quality for the price. All mothers got a pot plant as a gift to take home too. Very pretty location and building.

Absolutely lovely pub: location, grounds, family friendly ( Bouncy castle ) dog friendly, lovely staff.

Lovely day, had the roast beef very fatty. But will try again, all pubs deserve a second chance, but please check before food is sent out

Waited an hour for mediocre food, no apology ........just amateur really as there was hardly anyone there. Used to be a good pub and the setting is lovely - new owners appear clueless.

I ate here with friends on a Saturday evening and was very disappointed with the food. My "bubble & squeak" looked like a poor quality "ready meal" , I could find no cabbage in it and I'm doubtful that it was fried. It came with one egg and a small piece of bacon. Not cheap either. No complaints with the service.

We stopped here on a sunny afternoon, lovely garden with plenty of tables, we ordered food, which was ok. We agreed we would come back for a drink but not to eat.

Had a lovely roast dinner sitting in the garden this Sunday, watching some kids have fun on the play equipment and bouncy castle. Great food, especially the lovely chicken starter. My son loves the homemade burgers too! There are some nice dog walks close to this pub as well! I would recommend!

The online menu bore no resemblance to the one we were given. We choose burgers and added stilton to one and cheddar to the other. Brioche buns and fries . With a pint of and a half of diet coke the bill came to £29.00. Seemed a little steep but burgers were delicious.

Dinner was delicious with excellent service and a wonderful local pub atmosphere. We would highly recommend.

Visited here over the weekend with my family as we heard good things about the new head chef. Wow what can I say, we wasn’t disappointed the food was fantastic and all my family enjoyed themselves. The pub is lovely and all staff are very friendly, the children had great fun too as they had a bouncy castle up in their garden, this kept them amused for some time. We can’t wait to plan another lunch here, thankyou to all at The Scarlett Arms.

Visited this evening after reading about the new chef and seeing the photos of amazing food on the website. Click on the food & drink tab of their website and an array of appetising dishes appear, however NONE of them are on the menu. There...

Had a meal here with the family. Almost hits the spot but feel it needs a slight tweak to be spot on.

What an awesome country pub! Multiple real fires throughout this beautiful authentic pub, and lots of tables and chairs. The staff are friendly, welcoming, and eager to please - this made our family get-together perfect. We had lunch here for 15 people, and all the...

Went here with friends as we know the new chef has a reputation to serve amazing food - we’re not disappointed, it was delicious. Unfortunately the let down came from the new landlady who has no idea and seemed to be drunk, luckily for her...

We were greeted by very friendly staff at this beautiful little pub. There was a lovely fire burning, which was perfect for a cold day. The food was well presented and was delicious. I would definitely recommend it.

I have not been to this pub for many years so it was time for a revisit. A few smoking locals were sheltering in the doorway with glowing cigarettes as the rain came down but inside was warm with a large blazing coal fire in...

What can I say? I love this place. Gill and Ian are just lovely. And the food????? Wow. I only ate once or twice here before Gill and Ian came here. I was never impressed by the food, especially the Monday night specials. Was always...

We went in for Sunday lunch after a nice walk up Leith Hill. The pub is very welcoming with a fire or woodburner in each room. I would describe the food as a 'decent pub roast'. Tasty and not too expensive. Not necessarily anything fancy...

My daughter and I decided at the last minute to go out for Sunday lunch. This was the 3rd pub I rang which had a spare table. Hadn't been here for about 2 years. Had an excellent meal. Most of the starters are fish so...

The four of us had a great Saturday lunch by the fire. The service was attentive and with a smile. The food was substantial and flavoursome. Special mention must go to the venison stew. Great work, keep it up!

Popped in for a quick supper and did not disappoint. Good special menu. Yes the team is new but they are trying.

Come on Graham M from Storrington. The new regime have only been in The Scarlett for 5 mins. They deserve a week or two to settle in before people start leaving scathing reviews on TA. Also if you are so weedy that you couldn't face...

We stopped off here during a longish Bank Holiday weekend Sunday ramble through the Surrey countryside, and it was well worth it. The service and beer were very good, and our roasts, which arrived quickly, were well presented and very tasty. Overall good value for money.

Once a year we make a beeline for the Scarlett Arms so we can sit outside in the sunny yard, surrounded by trees, and eat an English ploughman's lunch. They are increasingly hard to find and past experiences have taught us this is the place to go. The choices are beef, ham, cheese and the servings are generous. On Sundays they don't do ploughmans but offer a good selection of meals. This is a real English pub in a green and pretty spot. Children's playground on site kept our 10yr old busy the whole time. Free parking across the road.

Food was nice but rather strange, asked for vegetables rather than salad with a meal and was told we do not have vegetables, which is fine. Main course of rump steak which was pleasant but over priced and served with chips and side salad, bit bland. Ordered dessert of Scarlett Mess asked if this was with strawberries or raspberries and was told 'strawberries' it was chocolate ice cream, chocolate sauce, bit of whipped cream on the top with one cherry. Not a strawberry in sight? A beautiful pub but a bit disappointed.

The Scarlett Arms is a beautifully authentic pub in Walliswood . The beer selection was good : we were especially pleased with the inclusion of "Ghost Ship". The good quality Sauvignon was served at an appropriately chilled temperature . The garden - well kempt and comfortable. The food was of good quality ( we had roasts ). However the table waiting system seemed disorganised and unable to serve us all together. This may have been the fault of the kitchen's organisation . Another faux pas was to bring out hot food to clients and then fail to provide cutlery. I had to chase in for it myself . When one eats outside keeping food warm is surely of importance. So, a suggestion: get the kitchen organisation sorted and get the waiting staff trained up a tad more and it'll be a brilliant place for a beer or a luncheon with drinks !

Great food - generous portions. recommed their burgers and Cajun chicken nice and spicy. Actual bar quite small but Service very friendly

I have visited this pub regularly and took my family along to the family fun day - the only extra I was aware of was the bouncy castle in the garden. Some of the group were eating off the starter menu and some decided to order cheesy chips - we were charged nearly £12 for 3 portions and each portion consisted of about 6 chips - outrageous. I wish I had said something at the time but the family didn't want to make a fuss - the pub was exceptionally quiet with no atmosphere - not sure what's going on there as this has always been a busy lively place to go!

We found this place after a friend recommended it,the weather was very kind to us and we were able to eat outside,great menu and staff very friendly.nice atmosphere.

Happened upon the Scarlett Arms totally by accident when out having taken a wrong turning. Pulled into the ample car park opposite and crossed over the road. You enter a lovely garden surrounded by magnificent mature trees and beautiful flowering shrubs. The building has considerable age and character. The garden wraps around the pub and to the rear there is a very good children's play area. Whilst we were there, there was a varied mix of families, children, mature citizens such as ourselves and a number of customers dogs ( all very well behaved, but still on the lookout for scraps). We ordered a burger and the sharing meat platter. The food was delicious and I have to say the meat platter was quite excellent. The cured meats were absolutely delicious. The service was excellent and the staff super friendly. We have since returned recently but during a week day and our experience was as our first, through less people as our first visit was on a weekend. This really is a great pub in a beautiful location.

We lunch with our friends who live in Chichester once or twice a year. As we live near Dartford we have chosen the Dorking area as being about half way.For two of three years we have suffered at The Parrot which is in nearby Forest Green and are very pleased to have made the change. The Scarlett Arms is beautifully situated ( think The Darling Buds of May and you'll get the idea) and completely charming. I had bubble and squeak , egg and smoked salmon as a starter and then scotch egg and chutney. All home made and extremely tasty .Each of us chose different dishes and each of us were happy with our selection. Make sure you go there if you are in the area . You won't regret it!

We ate here on Sunday lunchtime before a visit to the nearby Hannah Peschar Sculpture Garden. Surprisingly for the time and day there were very few other people eating. I ordered roast beef which I was told would be rare but was at the very least medium. Service was on the slow side, especially considering that there were not many diners. Also I thought it was on the expensive side. Altogether rather disappointing, especially in light of the many positive reviews.

For many years we had been fans of the Parrott, a pub nearby but change of owner has caused a drastic drop in standards.Despite getting lost on the way, we are delighted to have found the Scarlett Arms run by Tracy and her staff. They are warm and friendly as is the log fire that is at the heart of the bar/dining area. We were there for lunch (beware they close at 3pm) and my husband had the small serving of bubble and squeak, fried egg and bacon - it was a generous serving and bubbling freshly cooked. I had chicken, bacon and avocado salad beautifully served in large white china dish. I couldn't eat it all but really enjoyed the chargrilled chicken and bacon, Various local and special beers on tap and the wine I had was very pleasant, Substantial lunch for 2 for less than £30 was excellent value. We will be back with the grandchildren etc to enjoy the lovely garden - too cold today! Thanks girls, it was a lovely visit

Went to Scarlett Arms for dinner and drink. The staff were very friendly and bubbly. Great sense of humour. Great dish and pudding. Love a pub that serves up a nice cold glass of Peroni! Just what I needed after a long day at the office. Food was excellent! Had my favourite confit duck and gave my compliments to the lady chef. Definitely recommend if your passing by in a quiet location and plenty of parking. Large garden to the frontage catching the evening sun. Five stars and thanks to Molly for looking after me today. Very professional and superb service.

Visited today for lunch. Friendly, helpful staff who made you feel really welcome, so nice. I opted for the rare roast beef and horseradish ciabatta served with a side salad and crisps and my friend had the bubble and squeak topped with fried egg and smoked salmon and salad and of course a side of chips. Despite the fact that the pub was busy it arrived within about 10 minutes, beautifully presented and served with a smile. One of the nicest pub lunches we've had for a while.
