I recently visited The Bear bar and Barbers and it was an absolute gem! From the moment I walked in, the cozy atmosphere and friendly staff made me feel right at home. The selection of drinks was fantastic, and the food was even better—everything from the hearty pub grub to the perfectly seasoned fries was delicious. I also loved the quirky decor, and so rare to find a boozer with a barbers inside it which gave the place a unique charm. Whether you're there for a casual drink, a meal, or just to unwind, this pub has it all. Highly recommend! I'll definitely be back. I happened to be there on a karaoke night and it was fantastic Warren the dj created a fab vibe and it became a party that I won’t forget. I highly recommend this gem!

I have been going to the Bear for years and I can only compare it to a glass of fine wine..( its got even better over the years) . Their Sunday Roast is the best in the area for price and taste , alongside the free Sunday pool table ...its a family win .That being said , the main thing that draws me to the Bear ( apart from the staff) is the fact its one of the only pubs that plays live music locally , is not a franchise or fancy wine bar.. just a good old fashioned pub .So if you want tasty food served somewhere family friendly or a night of live music ,Karaoke or pool ,the Bear & Barbers is a win for all.

Visited the bear many many times over the years. The food is always spot on at a very reasonable price 👌 the live music is always decent and the garden is nice to chill in when summer arrives 😀 The staff are always friendly and if your over due a trim they've got you covered 😉 being kid and dog friendly is a big bonus to ! Will be visiting again soon for the grizzly bear breakfast 😋

Wonderful pub with amazing food and genuinely friendly staff. They have a great atmosphere and always have something on. Their outdoor bbqs are THE BEST in the summer months and a place for the kids to play. It’s amazing they have a barber inside so you can enjoy a pint and have a haircut. BEST PUB IN TOWN ☺️

I’ve been frequenting this bar for a good few years now, the atmosphere alone is reason for a return - we have ended up striking a friendship with the owner and family. If you have good intentions, all are welcome here, do not listen to negative reviews, these are just low IQ individuals who cannot handle their tipple and also cannot handle being told ‘no’ Keep up the good work!

The landlord and whole team are a credit to the service industry. The food is reasonably priced and a cut above normal pub grub. They arrange regular entertainment so you have the character of a good old fashioned pub with modern food and a great selection of beer/lager and spirits. It is definitely one of the best pubs in the area.

Came here after a lot of recommendations for Sunday lunch. Reserved a table for 1pm as there were no earlier slots available and now I know why! Half roast chicken was huge and succulent. Fresh vegetables and "proper" roast potatoes. Lovely thick red wine based gravy and a giant yorkie to top it off. My partner had the lamb shank that literally fell off the bone it was so tender. At £15 for a roast it's fantastic value for what you get compared to what I have had in the local area. Cannot recommend this place enough.

Vince is a lifesaver! I got my hair completely ruined by a barber shop up the street and Vince squeezed me in between appointments on an emergency right before a wedding. Also just a lovely and personable guy who will chat with you about anything and was incredibly welcoming to a tourist not from Europe at all. Thanks Vince, I’ll definitely be back next time I’m here! Cheers from California!

What an excellent pub. A warm welcome from the staff, excellent well cooked breakfast including fried bread. The rest of the menu looked good too. Pleasant out door area. I am not even going to drop a point for the uninspiring ale range. When I first saw the in house barbers it was a little surreal, but the whole atmosphere is excellent and if the haircuts are as good as everything else it's a cut above other pubs ..

For a small pub, it was very clean and the toilets were spotless. The food we had was incredible 😋. Highly recommend the baked potato with ham and chicken. The cod and chips were cooked very well with no greasy after taste, and the chips were perfect. 10/10 will let you know about Sunday roast later. The Sunday roast was just WOW. Chicken roast and mixed meat road. Absolutely perfect. 💯. Next the breakfast, will fill in later. Thanks.

I went in to see Vince today for a women’s hair cut. As someone who’s always gone to salons I wanted to try a blunt cut for my hair to make it feel thicker. Vince knew exactly what I wanted and gave me the best hair cut I’ve ever had and for the best price. He’s a lovely gentleman and very welcoming. I’ll be recommending him to everyone as he’s a truly lovely person and brilliant at what he does. See you soon vince for my next trim! Thank you again :)

Will never come back when thr guy known as snowy is working. He is rude ans blunt. He also charged my card £135 instead of £35 and when I confronted him at the bar he wasn't even sorry, he simply refunded my money and told me to go away, I also had to wait 7 days for my refund. This man should not be behind the bar, not only can he not see but he is the most rudest person I've ever met!!

I had a bit late breakfast I don't mind to pay £10-15 but the eggs was under cooked.. maybe they was in rush, but customers pay for , toast still soft no crispy at all, so I don't recommend this for breakfast just for coffees.

It was my folks who suggested coming here, as I had my little dog with me. I grew up in Surbiton and recently moved back, although never been to the City Arms before and I am glad I did!, intimate, friendly, perfect cosy Sunday venue, with amazing food and very reasonable on price. The staff were super friendly and (really important) embraced me having my dog with me and having other dogs inside. I will 100% come back again! and its always a pleasure to find a local gem for the first time.

Wonderful experience, and food was amazing. From the minute we walked in, we were welcomed by a lovely member of staff Alyssia, who also served us, drinks and food. We choose steak and chips for our late lunch, and it was cooked perfectly, and the quality for the money was perfect. Compliments went to the chef also. We then relaxed in the bar area, which was very warming, and was then again looked after by the same member of staff. She really is a credit to the pub, and I wish her all the success she deserves. All staff were polite and friendly, and if I'm ever in the area again we will definitely be eating here.
