The Angel in Elmbridge

This a small unpretentious old fashioned Pub on the outskirts of Thames Ditton. It has several different what we would have called small rooms where you can eat . We chose the area to the left of the bar for our lunch. You order and pay at the bar and then the meals are delivered to your table. There is quite a varied menu ranging for jacket potatoes, salads. a choice of burgers, smaller meals and the main menu. We chose the Angel Fish Fie and Chicken breast both of which were nicely presented, hot and very tasty. The staff were attentive and always available, without pushing or being in your face. It was midweek when we dined here and thankfully there were no young children , which we dislike when we are eating out, so the atmosphere was peaceful and quiet. reasonable choice of Cask ales and wines This to us was a hidden fund that we had not been to previously

We have been going to The Angel Inn for a midweek lunch four or five times a year since the end of the Pandemic. We last wrote a review of this establishment in early in 2022, so felt it was time to write another one. It is a small village pub with a nice character and some interstering exibits . It has a laid back atmosphere and no music blasting out. It tends to attract when we dine here, a more mature age group rather than families.We have constantly found the staff to be attentive and helpful. Mike and Molly have always been friendly especially when booking a table in advance. The food continues to be a high standard and reasonably priced. We sometimes choose dishes from the £8 smaller meals menu with the pie of the day usually being excellent. Also occasionally we splash out on a meal from the main menu, with the fish pie being one of our favourite dishes. We tend to park around Giggshill Green as we find the car park very awkward to manager when the pub has a number of customers. We will continue eating here

This is a quaint traditional pub perched on one corner of Giggshill.Green in Thames Ditton. We visited for a lighter lunch and went for the Smaller meal option at £8 each When the meals arrived it was more than an ample helping for us all. There is a limited choice for the Smaller meal but it included Scampi , Pie of the Day , Chicken Goujons and Omelettes all with chips and Ham Egg and chips. All were great and represented excellent value for money. There is also an extensive menu for anyone wanting bigger meals. The service was friendly and spot on it had a nice laid back atmosphere .There is some outside seating both at the front and back and also a rather cramped free car park. Definitely worth considering and recommended if visiting the area

First of two visits, with a couple of friends - for dinner, whilst, the International Football was televised, in the evening. Pie of the Day and Omelette, were both enjoyed, whilst I had two of the Small Dishes - Scampi and Chips, plus Fish Goujons and Chips, as they are both so well priced. Food was very tasty. Second evening - drinks only. Service and staff all very affable and fastidious.

This a true traditional small pub with no TV or loud music blasting out. A good choice on the menu. The meals themselves were hot and more that met our expectations. It had nice laid back atmosphere. The car park was little tight to manoeuvre in and out

Very nice double-visit, before and after, going for a Nepalese meal, just down the road. Pub was pleasantly busy with a good atmosphere - nice staff and service, with a decent selection of lagers and ales.

A great menu . The food was excellent and service was spot on. Fairly priced. A traditional old fashioned small pub overlooking the green. Reserve a window if possible

This is a lovely small traditional pub without any airs and graces. The service was very friendly and the meals were excellent and represented good value for money. The car par at the rear is very tight to manoeuvre. We will return in the future

First time back after a few years away, and this turned out to be a super spot for lunch. Good range of traditional pub fare, served by a friendly landlady. Definitely one we’ll be back to in future.

This is just an old fashioned pub with a lovely clientele and staff. Absolutely perfect place to go for a drink

We were invited to a birthday celebration here in the Function room. The food.and service were terrific. Mike the owner was on hand to supervise to make it a wonderful occasion thank.you

I held my 70th Birthday Party at The Angel Inn in May 2023. The buffet food was superb and the décor in their Function room was perfect. I cannot thank Mike and Molly enough for putting on such a wonderful spread, and for the very calm way that they, together with their staff, dealt with everything and everyone. All the guests said how much they enjoyed themselves. I was absolutely delighted.

Went here for lunch a couple of months ago & had a good meal. Returned for Sunday lunch … disappointing. We had 2 roast chickens & a nut roast. Small portions & gravy poured on which made the Yorkshire pudding soggy. Desserts were very processed & served with artificial cream. The worst part… we were accused of not paying our bill?? Think the manager should have checked with the staff instead of confronting us in the restaurant. Will not be returning.

Excellent British traditional food. Well cooked reasonably priced. Friendly service. Best to book in advance . Small car park at the rear no television or loud music, so you can hold a conversation

Very pleasant late afternoon/early evening drinks and dinner at this venue. Pleasantly busy with a nice atmosphere, as per usual. Service was very good and food was highly enjoyable.

An excellent lunchtime visit - especially for Sunday Lunch. Food, Staff and atmosphere are top dollar and even more important, they welcome dogs with open arms

They were brilliant in accomodating us at the last minute as we had been let down elsewhere. The sunday roast was fantastic. And very reasonably priced. The staff were lovely and friendly. The desserts were also amazing. They accomodate for all food tolerances. Vegan, gluten free etc

This is a proper traditional pub. we went here for lunch and hey had a super seven menu which is basically a choice of about 7 meals for £7. The portions were adequate for a smaller lunch. The food was hot and delicious and well presented. The staff were helpful and friendly.We will revisit when in the area again

Probably about 14 months since I last visited here, but venue as relaxed, pleasant and traditional, as it always has been. Drinks, for a couple of hours, with two mates from Hinchley Wood. Pleasant atmosphere and service inside.

Went here recently and enjoyed a beer out the front which was very pleasant by the lovely green in Thames Dits.I saw there was a nice big beer garden out the back too, so would be great for a pint out there. There was cricket on the green, so I opted to be out the front and tried to use binocular eyes to see it.Good pub for a pint, although didn’t try the food. Seemed to be quite a few draught beers out of stock so bumping down a point as had to settle for an inferior pint to what I wanted. Hopefully will be better once the supplies are more plentiful.

We visited the Angel Inn as a family of four. Two adults and two 2 kids aged 11 and 5. Fantastic welcome from all the staff, with outstanding food. Options to eat inside or outside with a great menu to choose from. The staff were amazing and so friendly, the could not do enough for us. Highly recommend the Angell Inn.

After a ‘riveting’ morning in London, followed by a relaxing walk around West End Esher and parts of the Common, I recalled the words of a fellow Hinchley Wood resident who had regaled me with how he’d been here twice - during the 50 percent off initiative for August. Thus, I decided to stop of here myself, for an early dinner.The prices - even before the 50 percent off - are remarkably good anyway, with a wide, diverse, varied menu which caters for all.The food is always decent here - unpretentious and hearty, and this remains a true pub.Scampi and chips - with a salad were totally fine.

Had hot food and drink served to us by staff whose faces were completely uncovered. Quite reckless behaviour and I cannot go back until this changes.

Just spent a very pleasant hour in the Angel. Despite Covid-19 restrictions they were accommodating and friendly. Efficient service always with a smile. First visit to a pub in months, well worth it.

Hadn’t really anticipated being back inside a pub, but ended up here around 7.30 pm, on Sunday with a Hinchley Wood village friend of about 6 years.Sensibly spaced inside. Lovely service from Mike, the landlord, and the older lady working there.Nice conversation with my friend about his life in Castèlnau-Montratièr and his former job as being advisor to the Chancellor of the Exchequer. Drinks are well priced. Really, relaxing pleasant ambience.

The Angel had always provided good pub food and during lockdown they do a takeaway service of the full menu. It is wonderful! We used to drink there before March, now we just ell marks to them for keeping going and providing a wonderful service to the local community

This is the second time we have had home delivery and it wont be the last. The food arrives at the appointed time, piping hot and delicious. What a lovely change from cooking every night. It is every bit as good as eating in the restaurant. Only thing lacking is a pint of beer or a glass of wine to go with it!!!!

I can’t recommend enough the atmosphere is always great so friendly and welcoming the food is unreal one of the best roast dinners in Surrey I have had many nights out in the angel inn and it never disappoints

I'm fairly new to the area but arranged to meet some mates at the Angel Inn before heading into Kingston for a mates birthday. We ended up staying far longer than intended as the atmosphere was brilliant and the drinks very reasonably priced. Mike the landlord was superb and even gave the birthday boy and free shot on the house. Will definitely be returning for the next night out.

We stopped for a drink and found the pub so pleasant we decided to have some lunch. Good to find a proper old traditional pub, with good prices for food and wine.

Last minute arrangement to eat here after my husband completed the Hampton Court half marathon. Good quality roast and a yummy pudding all for £12.95. Helpful staff, who fitted us in although they were nearly booked out, immaculate toilets.

Good food friendly staff, would benefit from a little TLC. Many thanks for your hospitality. We were well taken care of and the food was good, with large portions enjoyed by all at our business meeting.

Very nice clean pub with big beer garden great view of the river Thames etc and very friendly and clean place and staff was very polite and we sat and had coffee and felt very welcome,, well done staff you made us happy,, happy new year to all the staff,, keep up your excellent work in 2020,, i recommend this pub to everyone

Dropped in for a little bit of dinner. Luckily we found a spare table. There were 4 that had been reserved. Something to remember in the future. This was 630pm on a Thursday evening. By the time we had left the place was filling up. I had the Angel Fish Pie, which was cod in a creamy leek sauce. It was delicious. My guest had a burger and chips. She loved every bite. She said it was very tasty

Very well looked after excellent staff amazing food lovely atmosphere they dressed the room really nice . Thank you so much .

Eaten Sunday lunch here twice. Very good value and good traditional roast. Nice atmosphere and friendly customers and staff. Lovely location and convenient for parking etc.

Dinner on Friday evening for 3 of us. Glad we booked a table as popular.

We went for a few beers there one night and it was good then we decided to go back and try the Sunday roast ; WOW. Superb meal and good value for your money . We will be back again .

Very warm friendly place and very helpful advice with the choice of drink, love it. Would recommend & come again.

Traditional pub with a very pleasant atmosphere. Nice staff, good choice of beers at a good price. Nice location.

We have a group who merts there most months. Mike and Molly couldn't be more friendly and helpful, even with last minute changes and slight changes to the fixed menu I choose, to encompass fussy eaters!. The staff are young but willing and friendly. We are working our way through the menu, and so far the food has been very good, not fine dining, but nicely cooked and plentiful at a reasonable price, all freshly cooked. The pub is an old coaching inn, with parking at the side and back. It has great character, with a meeting room at the back, albeit with the kitchen entrance off it, and many "snugs" around the bar and building.

My previous visit to this pub was for a drink many years ago.

During our lunchtime visit today whilst commenting that the area was cold due to a through draught from front to back door-I was met with an indifferent shrug and the happy snappy comeback was "what do you want me to do about it" by Molly the landlady. After 35 years of visiting this pub for lunch/dinner I will never ever set foot in the place again. The atmosphere she created was as ice cold as the pub. There was also repeated petulant slamming of the back door which ushered us out quickly-strange way to run a business!

We are regular guest at The Angel Inn.

Hadn’t been here for several years. This remains one of the very few, ultra traditional pubs in the area. Exterior seating at both front and rear, with also good parking. Pleasant atmosphere, and an enjoyable soft drink prior to heading to South London later.

We hadn’t been o The Angel for a while so popped in for supper. Good atmosphere as busy, sunny Friday night. I had the fish pie and Jeremy had The Angel Burger. I was disappointed with my Fish Pie. It had too much potato, very little fish and hardly any sauce. It looked good with a serving of vegetables, but unless they change their recipe, I wouldn’t order it again. I should have stuck to The Angel Burger as Jeremy did, as this is always good. See my earlier review in 2015 when I compliment the Angel Burger and other menu options.

We (a group of 15) booked out the back room for an end of season hockey lunch. I think between us we covered most of the food on the menu. Everyone’s food look (and was) tasty. Portions were generous and prices were reasonable.

As a regular to the Angel over the last 7 years I have NEVER had a bad meal, Mike & Molly and their team always make you feel welcome and the food is always home cooked and tasty, the roasts are really well priced, burgers are fantastic as is the Lasagne and they have a good choice of drinks.

The smell in the bar is like a nursing home. So off putting. Food is ok. Had baguettes which could have been cooked longer but otherwise fine. The smell of fat and oil and other nasty cooking smells especially in the car park is nauseating. The bar was busy so clearly popular locally but the smell for me was terrible. I had a meeting with a colleague locally so chose this for location. But it was not good. Staff were very nice though.

Like so many, after running a local half marathon I went to the Angel Inn for a well deserved Sunday roast with family. Our first visit to this pub and definately one to return to. The staff were rushed off their feet with the numbers, but coped really well. The roast lamb was excellent,..good portions, well priced and served on nice hot plates,..(.something sadly lacking in most establishments ). Friendly helpful staff and a pleasant atmosphere made for a great couple of hours relaxation,...along with a few nice beers !

Mike and the team served up Sunday lunch to 20 family visitors ready for some hearty food post party! Great selection and good service, the puds were huge! Big thanks one and all for rounding off a great weekend celebrating my daughters engagement. The clan went home to the four corners of this fine land fuelled for the journey.

I celebrated my birthday party at this venue yesterday. The function room was beautifully laid out and the party guests were able to spread into the lovely white fenced garden area at the back of the pub where there were plenty of tables and parasols to provide shade.

Called in unexpectantly looking for something to eat. Nice pub with friendly locals. Staff behind bar could be a bit friendlier and offer a smile maybe? Food was standard pub food, nothing special but ok for the price.

This is a gem of a pub .... classic old-style opposite a pretty green, no need for loud intrusive music and so there is none (what a bonus!), a perfect local whether it be for relaxing drink, meal or anything else! I organised a family gathering here and Molly And Mike were so helpful and a accommodating, the food and service were great, as was everything else. Highly recommended.

Ok pub, friendly staff, nice outside areas, inside is a little tired looking. The big disappointment was to be charged £6 for a bowl of pasta with no sauce and a bit of cheese on top for a kids meal.

All ways go here for a drink or a meal very good lunchtime and evening can look across the green from the pub and very pleasent on a summers evening. They do regular events as well. Worth a visit you won't be disappointed.

What a great place to eat, it's cosy with a real open fire, wonderful " pub grub" extremely reasonable prices, nothing is too much trouble they are very accommodating to dietary needs, children are welcome and best of all so are your dogs, they also have a back room which is perfect for parties, as well as the occasional events night, just a genuine old fashioned local

Had a small party in the function room with a hot buffet. Food and drink were excellent and staff were most attentive. The atmosphere in the bar was great as well. I used to work locally and always enjoyed eating or drinking here. It is just as good as it ever was!

This has to be by far the best pub in Thames Ditton and we have a few! The food and service just excellent. Charming smiley young staff make the experience here really great - The steak and kidney pie is the best i have ever tasted - reallly hard to choose anything else once you have eaten this . Freshly cooked veg with each main course and plenty of everything . My family love to come here for Sunday lunch too . Thank you to everyone concerned - It's a joy to come !

In the area for a few days visiting a friend who lives in Thames Ditton I was offered a late birthday meal out as a treat. Not knowing the area I was offered a meal in several very swanky looking restaurants which all sounded very nice but were not really what I was looking for on this particular Saturday evening. Something more relaxed and friendly would be nice I suggested. Having driven passed The Angel and thinking it looked a likely candidate I suggested it to my friend assuming that as it was within walking distance of her home she and her husband would be quite familiar with it. Unfortunately not, only ever having popped in for a quick one on the return from a walk with the dogs. Undaunted we called and booked a table in case they were very busy it being a Saturday. Very quickly answered the phone answered a couple of questions in a very friendly manner which is a nice change from some. Although they were quite busy when we got there the barmaid acknowledged us immediately and assured us she would be with us as soon as possible which again is always good. Had a drink at the bar and nice conversation with locals and staff before taking our table. The menu was absolutely spot on with a good choice of starters, mains and desserts. So far so good. We ordered a platter for two and both chose the home made steak and kidney pie. Well as they say "Just liked my mother used to make" Only better! We had planned on having a dessert but the starter and main were so generous we really had no room left. A shame as they looked delicious on other peoples tables. The price including drinks was really good value for money (even though I was not paying). I will certainly be making a few more visits here next time I am in the area. Brilliant. Well done to the Landlord/Landlady and the barmaid. We both enjoyed our visit tremendously.

Cuatro de nosotros visitamos para el almuerzo en una tranquila almuerzo semana. Tiene un menú de clásicos de pub que elegimos salchichas y puré de patatas, hamburguesas, pastel, pescado y patatas fritas, todo recién hecho, buenas porciones, y a un precio atractivo. Lavada con una pinta de orgullo Londres, una sidra symonds y refrescos para los conductores. Aunque la decoración parece un poco cansado y tiene un techo bajo, que de hecho se suma a la sensación de un tradicional pub "locales": estaría encantado de tenerlo como el mío. Hay un pequeño aparcamiento en la parte trasera.

Came to this pub for a meal after visiting the flower show at Hampton Court. Food and atmosphere was lovely and ended up staying longer than expected. Would definitely recommend

Having stopped for a drink with my partner who asked for a Bacardi and coke the bar tender put ice in the drink we said no ice she took all the ice out of the glass with a spoon and most of the Bacardi we asked for another one in place and she refused not s place for a welcome. Keep away.

Vamos al Angel para un par de años, pero en los últimos años hemos ido sobre una base regular para bebidas o comida/cena. Tengo que decir que me encanta, bien como algunos dicen que no es gastro, pero si eso es lo que quieres ir...

Es un pub que tiene comida. Bueno como siempre que sus expectativas no son muy altas. Sólo ir y relajarse y disfrutar. El personal es muy amable y es informal y sencillo. La comida está bien, pero la regla. Domingo almuerzo popular, pero la carne...

Visitamos el ángel en un jueves por la noche, donde tanto el bar y el restaurante estaban ocupados. El pub está en verde en la carretera Giggs entre Esher y Kingston a una milla de la islas Scilly. Excelente selección de cervezas con jóvenes y...

Pasó por el ángel para un rápido almuerzo en un pub. El bar principal es un asunto bajo techo con una chimenea en esta época del año. Pidiendo comida y bebida era muy fácil. Nos las arreglamos para conseguir una mesa cerca de la chimenea. Noté que era un perro - lugar amable.

Duck your head on the way in, the older parts of this property have low ceilings! Great traditional pub, Draft beers and great portioned grub, served with a smile. Doggie friendly local that gets busy on the weekend so book to get a table!

I visited as part of a group of about 15 persons, on Sun 17.04.16. Both the main course and dessert were very good - good quality food and reasonably priced. Parking is a bit of an issue, as the pub is on a road with double yellow lines, all the nearby roads have similar parking restrictions as well. There is a small car park at the rear. If the pub car park is full, I suggest that you park in the public library car park in Mercer Close, Thames Ditton, Surrey, KT7 0BS. It is a very pleasant 5 minute walk, from the library alongside the village green to the pub.At peak times, for a group of people, you need to book a table well in advance.

Had a great Sunday roast, food was piping hot and arrived quickly. The staff were polite and they had both a front and rear garden. Good value

Eaten here a few times and the food has always been marvellous and great value for money. Staff were very friendly and were able to give accurate descriptions of dishes on the menu, which I have found is not always the case. Piping hot dishes, served quickly and excellent value for money. All the condiments and cutlery you may need are served in a box so no need to ask for anything. Attentive staff appeared when needed but not OTT like some restaurants. Nearly all dishes only £5-7 which is a bargain. Recommended to all.

One of my favourite pubs in the village. You'll always get a warm welcome from Mollie and Mike. The locals are friendly and so are their dogs. If you like good traditional pubs with great pub grub a roaring fire and plenty of banter this is the pub for you.

I was with a friend to revisit Hinchley Wood. Popped in here for a pub lunch before going around Hinchley Wood. The food and atmosphere was great. A true old English village pub.Having grown up in the area in the 80s I knew the pub with previous landlord. Plan to revisit in near future. A reminder of still what I call home.

Go here once a month on average for work lunch. The odd quizze or comedy night. It's a typical English pub with friendly staff. Simple traditional pub food but home cooked. Bear is expensive, but its London! Steak and Ale pie with chunky chips to die for. Not a "special meal place" but somewhere to go when you don't want to cook and know it's a good decent dinner. Recommended!

I arrived at 1245 after having phoned earlier that day (1000am) to make a reservation for myself, my wife, her parents and 3 children, i was told that 1300pm was fine for us. When i arrived i quickly informed the staff that we had booked for 1300pm. I was swiftly told that there was no room for us now until 1400pm, when i asked why no one had called us to let us know of the change the landlord who was at one end of the bar came steaming over and started telling us that they don't have to do anything and that if we didn't like the change we could "sling (y)our hook". Having a quick conversation with my wife we decided to be calm and stay as we had driven from London for this lunch. I then ordered drinks and the landlord (who seems to style himself on an 'eastend gangster' and applies cowboy rules as to how he sees fit), poured my drink last, a pint of ale and slammed it on the bar so hard there was only 2/3rds of a pint left, when i pointed this out he threatened me and when i refused to pay and said i was leaving the landlady threatened the police for not paying - despite me not receiving my beverage or any of the group having theirs (all were on the bar). There wasn't even a moment of courtesy, just simple aggression and scare tactics from the get go. It is extremely surprising to read the positive comments on here as it was a complete polar opposite for my experience. I will never ever visit the establishment again and i cannot strongly dis-courage others from it.

Quite possibly one of the worst establishments i've ever had the misfortune to enter.

Nice, friendly atmosphere. Excellent food. Nice outside garden. Was very pleased with service and food.

This is a real pub with all that you would expect including low beams, quirky rooms, outside area and private dining room by garden. The landlord Mike and his team here are efficient, knowledgeable, friendly and welcoming. Beers are super and food is fresh and yummy. The beef bourginon and fish pie we had were delicious. There is parking on site and loads more spaces on adjoining roads.

Food was rapidly served - battered mushrooms (starter) - great; Scampi and chips main equally enjoyable. Friend's fish and chips looked very good and was excellently priced. Bar lady very friendly, hard working and 'not very ugly' :)

Having previously visited this pub about a year ago, i was pleasently supprised on my visit yesterday. Firstly the bar staff were friendly and efficient on this visit whereas on my last visit the elderly couple working behind the bar were painfully slow and quit rude.The food is now of much better quality and although we had to wait for a while for it to arrive it was well worth the wait.The Angel offers a standard priced menu and a meal for a fiver option for the smaller appitites. I had the steak and kidney pie which was delicious, our group had several different meals all were good pub food.This pub offers good quality pub food.

we hadnt booked and it was packed but the charming staff went out of their way to try and seat us - We saw the size of the adult sunday roast dinner so we asked for childs portion - it was really large! Roast lamb and veg and loads of gravy all delicious. We shall return a lot - Staff rushed off their feet but constantly smiling and helpful- we loved it all!- Oh forgot to mention pudding ! Excellent and we are not easily pleased!

Not being a regular of The Angel and just having returned from a stint abroad, I dropped in for a beer. As being short of cash and as a number of other people arrived (as there is now no banks in Thames Ditton), I paid for the round of drinks by Debit card. As I didn’t put my glasses on, I simply typed in my PIN number to the hand held cash machine given to me by the bar staff member, without being able to properly read what the barmaid had entered. So my own stupid fault. Whereas, because of the chance of fraudulent use, we’re all reminded to regularly check our Credit Cards, but as I regard a Debit card payment, (almost), as cash, I didn’t think anything else of the payment for a while. Because of other priorities, I didn’t check my bank statement for a few months, only to find that I had been overcharged, by a substantial amount, for the round of drinks at the Angel. On recognising that I had been charged over £100 for a round of drinks, which, for 4 or 5 people, should have been between £15-£20, I phoned the Angel. On speaking to the assistant manager, he informed me that there had been another occurrence similar to this, but that I would have to speak, directly, to, Mike, the publican(who wasn’t around at that time). Being again back from abroad and local, I said that I would drop by with the receipt, to show the date and the amount.On dropping in to the pub and meeting with the publican, Mike, I got less than a nil response. In fact he doubted what I was saying and said that a round of drinks of over £100 was not unusual in his pub. At around £4 a pint, I would have to have been buying drinks for over 25 people, this I doubt and I certainly wasn’t buying a round of drinks for everyone in the bar at that time, which was probably about 15 people. He informed me that as I hadn’t noticed it immediately and as I had entered my PIN number that at this late juncture, there was no way he could check back. I am sure that the Angel is the same as about every pub, nowadays, and they will reconcile their takings on a daily basis. So if indeed there was not a surplus of let’s say £90, on the date of my purchase, then something else had been happening with the bar staff that the publican is not aware of!So, my advice is, pay cash at this pubMoTD

As I didn’t put my glasses on, I simply typed in my PIN number to the hand held cash machine given to me by the bar staff member, without being able to properly read what the barmaid had entered. So my own stupid fault. Whereas, because of the chance of fraudulent use, we’re all reminded to regularly check our Credit Cards, but as I regard a Debit card payment, (almost), as cash, I didn’t think anything else of the payment for a while. Because of other priorities, I didn’t check my bank statement for a few months, only to find that I had been overcharged, by a substantial amount, for the round of drinks at the Angel. On recognising that I had been charged over £100 for a round of drinks, which, for 4 or 5 people, should have been between £15-£20, I phoned the Angel. On speaking to the assistant manager, he informed me that there had been another occurrence similar to this, but that I would have to speak, directly, to, Mike, the publican(who wasn’t around at that time). Being again back from abroad and local, I said that I would drop by with the receipt, to show the date and the amount.On dropping in to the pub and meeting with the publican, Mike, I got less than a nil response. In fact he doubted what I was saying and said that a round of drinks of over £100 was not unusual in his pub. At around £4 a pint, I would have to have been buying drinks for over 100 people, which I don’t believe that the bar can hold. So this I doubt and I certainly wasn’t buying a round of drinks for everyone in the bar at that time, which was probably about 15 people. He informed me that as I hadn’t noticed it immediately and as I had entered my PIN number that at this late juncture, there was no way he could check back. I am sure that the Angel is the same as about every pub, nowadays, and they will reconcile their takings on a daily basis. So if indeed there was not a surplus of let’s say £90, on the date of my purchase, then something else had been happening with the bar staff that the publican is not aware of!So, my advice is, pay cash at this pubMoTD

This is a traditional pub, which is unpretentious, and a rarity in the area. The food is good, unpretentious - the portions are excellent, and the value very good indeed.Staff are very pleasant, and the food - scampi, breaded mushrooms and beef burger with fried egg, bacon and blue cheese were great.
