The Bear in Surrey Heath

Visited here two evenings when we staying at the Premier Inn nearby. Staff were friendly l, service was good and food and beer were great. Relaxed atmosphere inside with modern decor.

The man with dark hair behind the bar was extremely rude and belittling. My group of friends (we are all aged 19-21) came for one drink before our dinner on Saturday 9th of March. We are well mannered and a relatively quiet group. He was very sarcastic, making us feel stupid for being here, making the environment uncomfortable. I don’t appreciate the bad attitude when I paid £15 for two cocktails and was very polite.

Lunch and a pint with my brother for his birthday. We had burgers which took an age to arrive, and they weren't worth the wait. Both the food and the beers were miles over priced - more like London West End prices, without the experience of the West End. Most restaurants (and this is really just a pub that does food) are cheaper than this place. Would not recommend this place to anyone!

Came here for a quick drink before staff party, the gentleman at the bar, Conner super professional, friendly and so knowledgeable. As a veteran within the hospitality industry I know good service when I see it, this man is amazing and a credit to Camberleys best local pub. I have eaten here in the past and the food is super fresh and tasty. The Guinness is the best in the area aswell. You can definitely tell they keep the lines clean on a regular basis. If you are looking for a place to chill, this is the place. Thank you Conner for your kind heart and amazing personality.

Had Sunday lunch in The Bear, absolutely love the service and the staff are excellent. Food is tasty and we had very quick service, highly recommend

We were staying at Frimley Hall and popped in to The Bear on a recommendation. A very warm welcome and lovely ale and Prosecco. Great menu and wine list and went for the chicken burger and pulled pork sandwich with chips and both were lovely. If in the area well worth a visit.

Been here a few times. Weekends, during the week, daytime, afternoon mainly. Really nice ambience. Excellent menu. Food is super. They do a fantastic BBQ aswell. Lovely to sit outside and just people watch. Good service too. Well recommend.

Super staff, comfy modern pub, the Bear became my go to spot in Camberley. Great food (excellent Chicken Parmigiana and Ribs!), great beer - including a couple of pulled casked ales, and accomodating staff make the Bear a delight. Whether dining indoor or outdoor on the pedestrian mall, this dog-friendly pub is a perfect place to unwind and dine.

I urge you to have your coffee at The Bear when out and about in Camberley. I've just sat outside nice and peacefully, drinking my mug of proper cappuccino, at a price which easily beats the usual coffee shops!

Anthony made me welcome and loved bless you and I’ll be back as the manners and guiness is spot on x

We ordered a BLT sandwich with salad and a side of Nacho's along with a couple of beers, after 40 minutes my wife went to the bar and asked if there was a delay on food and he said he would ask and then came over to say it will be 5 minutes, 15 minutes later it arrived and the bacon was almost 50% fat and the salad was 2 cherry tomatoes cut in half / 4 slices of cucumber and half a plate of lettuce. Whilst edible after removing all the fat from the bacon to wait an hour mid afternoon for a sandwich which was in fact a roll & not a sandwich and Nacho's I wouldn't recommend for the £38.22 Bill

Utter dump full of Camberley "locals". Avoid this place at all costs. Drink and food prices are vastly inflated. No atmosphere and very poor service.

Enjoyed a lovely meal today with my children and grandchild,food was amazing and the staff member was very friendly and helpful,a great visit as always :) highly recommend the bear for a family meal!

Always enjoyed great Sunday lunch here up until yesterday. Food and service was not up to usual standard at all. Seemed overpriced for very average quality. Won’t be returning ☹️

Great food at a reasonable price, plus good selection of drinks, just a shame it was so quiet. They have great plans for outside seating for the summer, highly recommended.

Fantastic Sunday lunch at he Bear, best pub roast I’ve had for a long time. Staff were fantastic couldn’t do enough for you. I’ll definitely come back.

What a lovely pub. I was staying in a hotel near by and wanted somehwere I could relax and be anonymous. They have some good beers and the food was really well cooked. I had a lovley time and didn't feel like Billy no mates! Listened to some good tunes had a couple pints ate some good food. Nice bloke behind the pass. Come you won't be disappointed.

We went for Sunday lunch for the first time since the Bear's reopening today. The roast dinner was just as good as ever, but we were disappointed by the lack of choice of beer and wine, and red wine by the glass was very expensive. Still the best place locally for Sunday lunch, though, and hopefully the range of drinks will increase once they've got going again.

WOW! What a find for a 10 out of 10 roast beef Sunday lunch. Amazing value for money. Just told the manager change nothing as simply the very best roast beef lunch out I've eaten. Well done we will be back. Change nothing!!

Very attentive staff and lovely food, chicken burger with skinny fries, lovely side of coleslaw. Yummy brownie and generous serving of custard. A quiet evening but a lovely atmosphere and as a solo dinner I was made very comfortable and looked after. Thank you for...

Completely surprised about how good The Bear is. On previous visits to Camberley, I've seen their streetside signs offering a 'Man Crêche' for busy shoppers and assumed the worst. Inside it's attractively arranged and outside has spread out over the pavement yet is well covered...

My family and I (including dogs) love to visit the bear. Food is always delicious, menu is not too overwhelming and I love the vegetarian tapas. The live music evenings are good and the staff are very accommodating. Dede was particularly attentive, friendly and welcoming...

Service was really good. Impressed they only serve at tables and no bar standing queues! I had the cajun chicken burger which was excellent and my wife had the chicken parmigiano which was massive but she still almost finished it all. We had a bottle...

Find this little beaut on a random little shopping trip into camberley Didn’t look all that but staff, cocktails, beer and food were fantastic! Highly recommend the salt beef sarni! Fab value for money and really lovely staff

I am visiting from Devon and I absolutely love it here Dee Dee is amazing and ever so friendly , went above and beyond thank you ❤️ you made me feel so welcome

This pub is amazing. We went in today for a quick bite to eat and a beer. My husband had the salt beef open sandwich and a portion of terrific big fries. I opted for the jacket with grated cheese and a salad on the...

I have just had the best roast dinner I have ever had away from home. Perfect roasties and yorkies; beautifully tender lamb; deliciously caramelised parsnip; amazing pickled red cabbage; great veg and tasty gravy. I added cauliflower cheese and did not regret it - great...

I’d like to praise the staff working 02/04/2022. The rapid, friendly and attentive service reminded me of some the restaurants visited when on holiday to USA. Just for service alone I would have come back, fortunately the food was excellent too! We had the pigs...

The most juicy burger I've ever had. The service is very good and very quick. I would recommend going in the evening, because the atmosphere is very chilled.

Fast and friendly service. Andrew was a legend, just really good vibes from him really. Will come back again! Outdoor space is nice but a bit cold, but after a glass of wine you wont notice.

My favourite pub in Camberley. Great drinks selection including my favourite Cider - Aspalls. Table service great. Always made to feel welcome by Sully, Jaz and the team. Always have a great meal here.

Friendly welcome and warm clean and comfortable pub. Great food well worth a stop off when shopping in Camberley. I had the roast lamb with roast potatoes and parsnips. Quick friendly efficient service.

Excellent pub grub, ‘real’ espresso martinis & friendly service! Must admit we were super surprised how good this place was as several years ago it was like visiting a library! Food - homemade! No frozen microwave grub here! We had homemade steak and ale pie...

Great location, staff great, nice to see that table service is still around, it just makes you feel a bit special! Asked for a good Indian close by and was recommended one which we were able to get a table and theyre suggestion was spot...

Can i just give a little recognition for the amazing Sully and his wonderful team. Always looked after and acknowledged from the team. Terry is a standout host. Always smiling and always willing to go that extra mile. If i had my own restaurant he...

So happy the Bear is back again. Fantastic pub with a great range of beers, some really interesting options from small breweries. Their cocktails are next level too. Food and service were brilliant as usual. So lucky to have this place as our local.

We visited last night as we’ve been before, last time was lovely but last night the staff was so unprofessional, they were on their phones behind the bar, one of them was leaning against the wall to speak to her friends. They weren’t the most...

We were looked after by Sam this afternoon, apparently he started yesterday but honestly, his service was impeccable and we couldn’t fault it in the slightest. He was so genuinely lovely, friendly and made genuine conversation with us. Absolute asset to your team, will be...

A real nice place to go. The atmosphere is perfect for the pub, the staf are very professsional and welcoming and the food is delicious. Would recommend.

We wanted to meet friends in Camberley as it was equi-distant for us both. The Bear looked good because of the menu. From the outside, it's not the charming country pub that you perhaps thought....it's in the middle of a shopping centre and didn't necessarily...

My girlfriend and I eat out a lot and love nothing more than a decent meal in friendly environment with good atmosphere, few weeks ago on a Sunday and randomly we walked into the this place and order two lamb roast dinners and let me tell you it was really really good unexpectedly we got roasted lamb shanks in our plates not just some sort of shredded cheap lamb slices you get in most places, lots of beautifully cooked variety of veg and the that big kick ass Yorkshire pudding is just a naughty treat on the plate, great places to be with great food

Considering the cost and the other reviews on here we were very disappointed in the meal we had here. There is no dedicated food seating and on a busy Saturday this means the bar is very busy with a lot of people milling around, uncollected...

We both had a beef roast, cooked to perfection could not fault it.....even the gravy was amazing. Friendly staff and a lovely atmosphere.......decor very nice......will eat here again.

Excellent service and food. Surely the best Sunday roast in Camberley. Quite a good choice of starters, mains and puds. Nice cosy pub in the centre of town. It was our first visit, it wont be our last.

Having lived in Camberley for a long time but never having been here we decided to give it a go for lunch one day. A really nice, spacious, family and dog friendly pub, the service was good and the food was excellent, I would definitely...

We booked at the Bear for a family birth day lunch for eight. We explained two family members had Demenia, with one a Wheelchair user as well, so a quiet spot would be appreciated. At the time of booking, upon arrival, and throughout our meal...

First time here a great welcoming by the landlord. Very nice decor. A nice choice of food and vegetarian options. The food came in a timely manor and lovely and hot. My wife had the salad with chicken and was very tasty. I had the...

Went to The Bear for a friend's birthday lunch. Really nice pub inside and the outside space also lovely. Clean, designed well, comfortable. Very pleased to see a variety of vegan options on the menu, the vegan chilli was absolutely delicious. Enjoyed the espresso martinis...

We were really delighted by an impromptu visit to The Bear. Really broad, tasty and not overpriced menu. Much better than all the ‘chain’ restaurants Will definitely go here again.

Nice pub with good and tastefull meals. The prices are cheap. Very pleasant environment in the centre of the city. The service is what you expect in a pub. I will come back.

After so many visits to chain restaurants in Camberley, we had lunch in this interesting & welcoming pub. Lovely beer and nice food. We both had great value wraps for £5.95. They both came with a nicely dressed salad garnish. My wife said that the salmon, avocado & horseradish one was the nicest wrap she had ever tasted.

At the bear for our yearly visit after a festival. As usual great friendly atmosphere. The chicken parmagiana is to die for. Keep it up guys x

Excellent burger home made from steak and plentiful nothing bad to say here very polite lady serving and friendly atmosphere

The bear was recommended to us by my father in law, 6 of us went in for a beer, we are 40 plus and know how to behave and hadn’t been drinking before hand.

Wonderful pub in Camberley, actually the best! Food is always amazing, they have some hidden secrets of cooking lamb...you can be sure that never can cook same at home, proper place to go for any sort of meal or drink! Lovely atmosphere and personal. Dog friendly.

Just had meal tonight! Was excellent! Good service and was impressed with food ! Recommend it! Dogs welcome too !

Excellent Sunday roast with all the trimmings and for great value at only £10.25 too!! Great atmosphere and friendly staff too. Will definitely be going again.

Food - amazing Drinks - huge selection Staff - Friendly, welcoming and up for a laugh Live Music Thursdays - incredible All in all... why go anywhere else?

We parked in the Atrium centre in Camberley, which is a multi-storey car park.

When I asked for a cheese toastie, the barman delivered himself as a legendary status by delivering it despite it not being on the menu. Top, top, top location

Looking for a great place to hang with your mates? Think “The Bear”. Want a relaxed location to people watch with a pint? Think “The Bear”. Looking for hands down the best food in Camberley? Think “The Bear”.

Always enjoy coming here for a pint and good food! Met some friends here and everyone enjoyed themselves. Food was fabulous and fresh! The menu changes seasonally but never disappoints. Love having a local pub with fresh food(not a microwaved pre-cooked meal)!

Popped into the bear for a roast whilst Christmas shopping. The food was amazing and service from Emily great and she went above and beyond to make us feel welcome. Definitely recommend and will definitely be returning soon!

Just moved to Camberley so decided to try for Sunday lunch. We all had roast beef which was cooked to perfection and all veg great with really crispy roast potatoes and yummy gravy. Highly recommend

Called in with the wife and son for a light bite, was made very welcome by Jasmine. Having looked at the bar menu the deep filled rolls caught our eye. Ordered coronation chicken for the wife and my son and I had the sausage rolls. Pleasant surroundings definitely going to return.

Called in to this pub hoping for a nice light lunch, was not disappointed in the whole experience. A gem of a pub, great food, lovely ambience and friendly bar staff in the shape of Jasmine. Will definitely be returning for another pint and deep filled roll!

Go in here after work sometimes and love it. A lovely pint of stowford press,and can sit outside with the heaters on and stay warm. Polite staff and always looks clean and inviting.

Just had lunch a the bearin cambaley from the out side it looks old and rustic with a twist but when in side what a surprise nice and modern. The staff friendly the food very good,the place very clean well worth a visit

Been using this pub for a few months now when staying over on business... young blonde girl behind the bar is always spot on and polite. Opted to eat here tonight and it was a decent burger and chips, no frills and filled the hole !!! Birra Morreti ain’t a bad drop here either

We went in for a quick light lunch, the food was lovely and served very quickly, ideal if you are still shopping.

After attending Ascot races we stayed in Camberley for one night.

This is a great pub. Great atmosphere and the staff were great especially the lovely blonde haired girl who served us so well. Highly recommend this place to anyone.

Quite enjoyed the steak and Guinness. One of the best I had. Beer on draft was good. Quaint pub.....

Went to this beautifull little pub for reunion with friends, got there ok went in and recieved a very warm welcome from barman , a very good range of wines, spirits and beer , we ordered food and it soon came wow wow, it was just perfect highly recommend to eat here, spent a long time here and there was no rush to get us out, very impressed

Quiet pub with amazing selection of beers, and the food is equally as good. Given what a disaster Camberley usually is a find.

We popped into here as we all fancied pub grub.

My friend and I went to The Bear on Monday evening for a drink after work and we ended up staying for the pub quiz. The atmosphere in there was great and lively and the bar staff were attentive and friendly. It was full of locals which is always daunting and my friend and I are from The North....however this didn’t mean we were any less welcomed and we had such an great night there. It was a shame we were only in Camberley for one night otherwise we would have gone back. Thanks for having us!!!

Was shopping in town with my wife and granddaughter and we were all hungry so poped into the bear had roasts dinners and also a corn beef hash and was well impressed with the service and the food ,A nice range of beers also on tap,a great little pub and well worth a visit

While looking for somewhere to eat during a working trip I came across the Bear which is in the pedestrian area of the town and close to car parks.

This is a pretty small pub, but has been done up nicely and has a few tables outside which catch the sun in the afternoon - not bad for February! Popped in for a quick lunch and pint - decent ciders on draught (Stowford Press and Strongbow Cloudy Apple I think). Lunch was delicious, and very filling - I had jacket potato with cheese (lots of it and not melted ) and home made coleslaw, plus a dressed side salad. My sister in law had nachos with sour cream, salsa, guacamole and chilli cheese, which were tasty, and my brother had a fried chicken burger which came with chunky chips. There was a good selection of dishes on the menu and it was all reasonably priced - just what you want from a pub. Friendly service at the bar too.

Each time I visit England I need my fix of fish&chips; as where I live they are a bit hard to come by.

The first time we had been in this place for lunch. The boards outside tell us that the food is locally produced and that the meals on the menu are home made cooking. Well we didn't expect the amazing food that we were served. The meals we chose were the steak and ale pie and the chicken with tomato and pepper sauce. Both were very good. The service was friendly and efficient. Although we chose beer and soft drink we noticed that the wine list was full. The toilets were clean although not a lot of room in each cubicle - the pub was originally the Ancient Foresters and these (I remember) are the old cubicles but revamped. Although the pub is on level ground with no steps I would say the toilets could be an issue for wheel chairs - I would suggest a phone call first - I didnt see a disabled facility but that doesnt mean there isnt one. We would definitely recommend this place. We will definitely go back to eat and probably take our dog next time - as thankfully she is allowed inside !! We have been here for evening drinks before (when John at Rock Box left) and we think that for just drinks this would be a nice place for a group meet up too.

Ate with family, very good food, well priced, friendly staff, all in all a great experience. Throughly recommended if you are eating in Camberley.

Haven't been to the bear in a long time and was pleasantly surprised it has had a major refurb and looks great. The food was of a very high standard we both had the burgers and they were great.The menu has a good selection of various dishes for different tastes all reasonably priced.The landlord was very attentive it's a definite return thank you.

I was recommended The Bear for the food and it certainly didn't disappoint! The atmosphere inside is so warm and homely, the staff were very friendly and I had the BEST fish & chips ever! Such fantastic food, can't wait to go back.

Eaten a lot of pub steak pies around the country and this is the best. Nice place with good service.

Just popped in here after a shopping spree in Camberley, greeted by very friendly staff and the food and beer delightful. Would definitely return and recommend

I’m ashamed to say after all my trips to the UK I’d never had a proper pie in a pub!

Working and staying in the area. To be honest just wanted a good pub grub meal.

Called in here today whilst out shopping - food was excellent; fish n chips, chicken burger with sweet potato fries and a jacket potato with cheese and beans - could not fault the place very warm and comforting with great service. Will defo call in again.

Visited with my mum as we needed something within walking distance and I'd heard this place was nice. It is! It's lovely looking inside and feels very cosy. I really enjoyed my meal, duck with celeriac puree - my mum had a few grumbles about her pork belly and had to ask for the promised seasonal veg, BUT afterwards she was asked for her honest feedback and they seemed happy to get it, complaints and all, which is great to see. We arrived at 6 and it was fairly quiet, got busier by 8 but there was still seating available. Decently priced wine and some very nice lager, Kozel. Could have stayed for hours. Monday night is the pub quiz which we didn't have time to join, but I want to go back for it! Definitely the nicest pub in Camberley.

Been here a couple of times now, after working in the area. Nice place to chill, friendly staff, very approachable and helpful. Had a nice ham, egg n chips, washed down with a couple of beers. Deffo be back.

Great place for a beer and bite after work - have eaten here a couple of times (both alone and with colleagues).

Afternoon drink stop in the cold winters walk around town. I have to say a friendly pub and an inviting warm fire to warm up the cockles. Certainly worth a stop while out shopping!

In town for work and had a mid week dinner and beers with work mates at the Bear, nice selection of Boutique and local beers staff very friendly and helpful. The food was fantastic and good value for money too. No issue recommending this place to anyone.

The Bear is a great inner city pub. First visit was a Sunday night it was very quiet. However during the week on other visits during the day it was buzzing with atmosphere, drinkers , dinners. Interesting interior plenty of board games to play and books to read. The food was very good typical of a pub menu but it was all very nice I had the burger was very happy with our food and our visit to the Bear.

Seems to be overall a nice town centre pub. Better than Carpenters Arms or Surrey Arms, with a really nice vibe and pleasant environment . BUT the Management clearly has preferences over certain regulars (not always a bad thing to have loyalty for your regulars btw) however they appear to let personal relationships get in the way of running an even more successful business,. A good business Manager should have a more balanced view and not judge people they don't know. There are a lot of successful career people in Camberley who spend money in this pub on a regular basis. Don't let personal views affect your business , reputation can make or break a business...

The food at the Bear is always of a high standard and all locally sourced. Mainly Gastro style food but good to perfection. Go and try it

Great food friendly welcoming pub nice decor very pleasant service Just popped in for a bite of lunch on my own whilst shopping.

The food here is amazing we had the cambembert cheese starter with jacket potato with chipolata chilli and again with cray fish and prawns. If you like home cooked food (not prepacked microwaved rubbish) you won't be disappointed here. Beer is also fantastic, Kozel Czech beer which is 4% and full of flavour. Definitely worth a visit, I know I will be returning.
