We had a great evening at the Cricketers. There was a large group of us out to celebrate a birthday and leaving drinks. Karl and Millie behind the bar were brilliant, very attentive and quick service. Would recommend

We chose the Cricketers for a family celebratory meal as the snug seemed perfect for the occasion although we had not eaten here. We were not disappointed with the experience. Food was well prepared and fresh. Good variety although most of the guests chose Sunday roasts. Snug suited us perfectly as we had small children as well as 90+ so we were not disturbed by any other diners. Due to numbers we had to pre order and in deed had an extra on the day which was all catered for with ease. Would come back again in preference to our usual choice of local restaurant. Thank you very much to the Cricketers. Only slight issue was the AI bot on the phone system, as I wanted to discuss before booking I was unable to get through to a human so ended up driving to Cricketers.

Thought it looked like a place you can guarantee fresh food. Just had chicken goujons…was dry and basically frozen and chucked in a fryer. Thought I might have been offered money back but obviously not bothered about the customer. Nice place though, friendly staff. Won’t be rushing back even if it was a simple dish it should have been a lot fresher instead of dry and tasteless. Waste of £14

I should very much like to hear from the Management Team of this pub, regarding my comment....I popped in today for a lunch time meal & drinks to celebrate a friends birthday. Greeted by one lady serving drinks, on seeing the dinning room full, I asked how long wait for meals to be served. She said at least 40 minutes, I said OK how about bar snacks, said the same length of time! She then said only her & one Chef on duty. Every time I have visited this pub, always the same story regarding meals, never enough staff, so have to wait . Turning many disappointed customers like our group of six away. .I just cannot understand why after spending a lot of money refurbishing this pub & making it a lovely place to drink & dine in. They always seem to have staff issues? I have visited here a few times over the past years & always the same story. I have asked friends who live close by and they all agree, don't bother going there to eat! Yet the pub has signs everywhere, advertising what a wonderful dinning experience you will find here!! Sorry but we all beg to differ, you are lucky if you actually see any food!!

It's a pub, with pub food. Admittedly the food is nice, however a little on the high priced side for what it is. Great to pop into after a Sunday walk for a drink or two. However, if you are after good food, with a price that matches the quality, then I would suggest somewhere else.

Impromptu visit for lunch after visiting Brooklands Museum. Friendly greeting from Gemma on arrival, and an apology for keeping us waiting as it was a busy lunchtime in the restaurant. We weren't kept waiting long, but it was nice to have this acknowledged anyway. Lots of menu options to suit all tastes. Neck Oil on tap too! Service was quick and efficient. Food was tasty pub grub. Lovely surroundings, outside seating and a car park. Star of the show was Gemma, who despite being on her own in the bar and restaurant, seemed totally in control and was always smiling. Wish more establishments had staff like her. Thank you for a very pleasant lunch experience.

Booked a table for six for Mother’s Day and was incredibly disappointed with the service. One meal arrived 20 minutes before the others and was finished before the others even turned up. The food was very tasty when it arrived apart from the crumble which shared more of a resemblance to a bowl of porridge. The manager kept heading outside for a smoke and when she was attentive she couldn’t remember anything we’d ordered and had to keep coming back to ask. Disappointing experience overall.

We booked last minute for the cricketers for a table of 10. Martina got us a real lovely cosy table at the back, we started off with garlic bread with fresh mozzarella, some drinks and Merlot. We ordered the roast dinners, we had Turkey which was so succulent and lots of it and a smashing lamb shank and chicken goujons for the children. Followed by bottomless roast potatoes and yorkshires with piping hot lavishing gravy! The carrots were beautiful. I felt like standing up with my large plate of food and dancing whilst thinking wow, is my nan in the kitchen cooking away. The thought made my evening so pleasurable, Max is a credit to the industry. Cannot wait to tell my auntie from Australia who is coming down in 2 weeks time to indulge a lovely roast with us.

The staff were fantastic, the food was lovely and the atmosphere was brilliant. We asked to increase the numbers a couple of weeks before and they managed to move us into the snug area.

Poor, nothing more than average. Visited midweek, and impressed with both the reasonably priced set lunch menu and the accompanying service. Living locally, decided to visit on a Sunday, which was a complete contrast to our midweek experience. Portions was small, namely, the scallop starter and roast pork main. However, what was most disappointing is that both the pork and beef roast (albeit beef reasonably sized) was cold. Convinced the Yorkshire puddings are merely placed on plates by FoH staff without being reheated prior to being served. Appreciate commercial kitchens can be short of room at times, particularly on a Sunday- however, this is not an excuse for cold food, especially considering the presence of large Rational oven in the kitchen. Both bar staff were remarkably hospitable and leaps and bounds better than their esteemed colleagues in the kitchen.

Reading the reviews, this restaurant is really like no others I have been to. While the food is well presented, salivating to look at (state of art) it is cooked to perfection and delicious; the staff have professional approach and are polite, unfortunately, this is where it ends. We have been visiting this restaurant for few years now (it has become our tradition) to celebrate 3 birthdays in a group. This October was no exception. We had an amazing time until we had a dispute with the management. What we have experienced has completely spoiled our mood and if I am honest, left a bitter aftertaste. Regretfully, that was our last visit, as I have never seen in any other place I have been to (I am a foodie and I have travelled the world) the treatment we have received here. There is no appreciation for loyal customers, lack of understanding, no room for negotiation, lack of empathy and if you have a problem, tough, it is your problem as the management team is happy to take your money (without prior notice - we have been overcharged by £230) and hide behind their policy. Be warned, if you are a group of more than 6 people, they require 48 hours notice in case of cancellation, otherwise you are going to be fully changed for the meal nobody is there to eat! We have been honest and provided the reasons for lack of attendance of 4 people with 3 hour prior notice, however they do not find (deeply disappointing as none of there could have been predicted or anticipated ) death in the family, being in A&E and sickness a valid reason for not having a meal. A real shame😳
