The food and service is as great as ever, menu still seems to have all the old favourites and to top it all the jew outside space is amazing! So well done, big canopy with floor standing heaters and twinkling fairy lights, plus some booths with wall mounted heaters. I turned up with a massive coat & blanket as I really fed the cold and didn’t need my coat at all. It felt like being on holiday with all the lights in the dark. Breathtaking. So good I’m going back tonight.

I love the grumpy mole, I've visited the epsom branch multiple times however after my experience I will NEVER visit the Cheam branch again.The service was extremely slow despite only having four outdoor tables seated and being two waitress outside!! It took the waitress 10 minutes to give us cutlery after our food was on the table we didn't even bother to ask about salt and pepper.The starter of potato skins was nice despite waiting 10 minutes to eat but my main of seabass was tasteless even after adding salt and pepper and I personally could not eat it also due to the mushed texture.The dessert was amazing however as it always is. We had the clotted cream cheesecake and brownie and I would definitely recommend both. Even leaving took another 15 to get the bill and another 15 for them to come over. I noticed the seabass still on the bill (nearly £18) but didn't want to wait anymore time.I am never coming back here

Absolutely unbelievable. Zero at fault! We went for a Sunday afternoon lunch. The service was amazing. So attentive and so helpful. The outdoor seating area was so beautiful and made in such a great quality area and fab heaters. The food was PERFECT! So tasty and great portion size. I was not hungry but not to full that hurts!

This was our first visit and a shame just as lockdown begins for the 2nd time. The restaurant is lovely and welcoming in its decor and how it is set out even in these times. Tables were secluded so no issues with being too near the next table. Felt very safe. The staff were very friendly and helpful though bearing in mind all the social distancing etc. Hand sanitiser available for all to use. The meal was a delight and the rib eye steak was cooked to perfection! Each dish was enjoyed without fault from the starters to the desserts. Home made chicken parfait, meringues and the date and ginger sticky pudding all a delight. Very enjoyable and will definitely be back after lockdown!

The service was fast and friendly, the COVID precautions were very good. But as expected the star was the food wow wow wow so good. The calamari was amazing easily the best we’ve ever had and the lamb rump was so tender and was full of flavour. My husband loved his catch of the day fish and chips the fish was nice and flakey in a beautiful light batter. We couldn’t fault a thing and can’t wait to go back.

It's lovely just to be out again!There's a few necassary concessions due to covid that under normal circumstances would seem odd, but these aren't normal circumstances. The food is fabulous and the service is pretty faultless. I can heartily recommend the sticky date and toffee pudding. I love the atmosphere of the place, whilst most people dress up fairly smart they don't give a monkeys if you don't. All are welcome, just behave yourself. Can't wait to go back

Went on Monday 10th for lunch with my girls. We only ate from the snack menu which had a great selection of sandwiches and hot and cold paninis but there was a full lunch service menu. The staff were very attentive and keeping to regulations etc...and we were given a great service even though we just had snacks. We were inside as there we no shaded outside tables. We had the beef and horseradish sandwich, prawn mayo sandwich and a tomato, mozzarella and pesto panini and they were all served with side salad and crisps...all tasted excellent. I would definitely recommend this restaurant and will be going there for dinner soon!

Food and menu uninspired and uninspiring. Nothing tasted like it was freshly made in house; tasted like commercial items assembled in kitchen. Service okay; the staff knew to make an effort and did so, but with little flare. The table tops were sticky, and the place didn’t feel clean. All things considered, the food seemed a overpriced.

First outing since lockdown. Booked for a Sunday Lunch for 3. Impressive food. My daughter and I had the trio of meats, my wife had Beef. Good portions for the money and nicely presented. Deserts were Stem ginger & Date pudding, Bread & Butter pudding & Vanilla Cheesecake. All very nice. Including a bottle of Malbec £108. Lumpy you may think but very worthwhile. Great job by the serving staff under the Cov19 conditions. We left very happy thanks. If you go, don’t forget to leave a tip, they work hard for it. Enjoy

I booked a table for 2 for 7 pm and on arrival shown to a table that must be the in the worst location in this establishment. It adjoined the main walkway we felt the floor was moving due to the constant traffic . BEWARE DO NOT BOOK THIS TABLE NUMBER 32.We requested if possible to move as there were only 4 other customers seated, but were informed all were booked although an adjoining table could become available due to a no show. The waiter appeared attentive and we ordered our meal, starters arrived within 5mins and as soon as we finished the main course arrived. all within 20minutes, no breathing space between courses and the "vacant no show table was still vacant in fact it stayed vacant till we left. This whole rushed experience took just under 60 mins. The waiter made no effort to relocate. Overall the food was good but expensive when you take into account the poor seating and very rushed service. Try the Grumpy Mole in Epsom which is far better .

We had the triple roast (chicken, beef and lamb) followed by bread and butter pudding with custard. It was cooked to perfection and is the best Sunday roast I’ve had in restaurant, possibly the best ever.

Can you give a “6”..!!On our latest visit to the UK we thought we’d treat ourselves to some “British food”We chose the GRUMPY MOLE Cheam for our treat. I rang and booked a table ( good idea to book at this Pub) The table was set in a corner by the heater..nice.We ordered the pie with seasonal vegetables along with a entree.The food came out fairly quickly given the restaurant was booked out.All the food presented was very good but what really stole the day was that I had eaten my veg first and the waiter seeing this promptly offed at no cost a second plate of hot veg. What out standing service..I travel from Australia and would recommend anyone to visit this restaurant.Oh, if you go, please say hi to the Greek waiter from the Aussies, he was amazing Would I eat there again?

Most recently was yesterday (2nd January) when it was just four of us including my aunt. We had a great meals. My son had the vegetarian wellington which was very nice, I had the chicken burger and my wife had the lamb which she said was perfectly cooked. The portion sizes were large.

I decided to go veggy today, so had the mushroom Wellington, also delicious; the pastry on both dishes was perfect.

My partner had the prawn cocktail starter, which was large and not a throwback to the 70s. I had the prawns and scallops Wellington, which was exquisite. For the mains, my partner had steak and kidney pie, which looked and smelled fantastic (with creamy mash and mixed veg). I had the fish pie, which was piping hot and simply delicious (with mixed veg). We were so full, we couldn't manage a dessert, which is a pity as they looked great. Our bill came to £77 including drinks, coffees and tip. Our friends' meals were as good, clean plates all round!

We pass this restaurant every time we visit our son in Cheam. This time we decided to eat there on a Sunday evening. The decor in the restaurant was quite tasteful and we were shown to a round table near the kitchen. This was not a problem and with the window open quite an airy spot on a warm evening. The staff were very attentive and the waiter we had explained the menu carefully. We were glad that we hadn’t chosen a starter as the mains were substantial, My husband enjoyed the steak and kidney pudding and my son and I both had the Sunday roast. The vegetables were served in separate dishes. All was well cooked and tasty. We also enjoyed a bottle of Grumpy mole merlot which went down very well! Having looked at the dessert menu we couldn’t resist. The brownie and ice cream can be recommended. We will certainly be returning to this restaurant and cannot believe that it has taken us so long to try it out.

I went with my girlfriend to the Grumpy Mole in Sutton (Cheam) for the first time last night and I honestly can't wait to go back. As soon as we walked through the door, we were made to feel extremely welcome. The restaurant is beautifully decorated, with a warm, relaxed and very friendly atmosphere. We were very lucky, as the person who looked after us for the evening (Dimos) was superb. Charming, attentive (not overly so), extremely polite and professional at all times, he put us at ease immediately and made us feel very welcome. He was also very knowledgeable about the entire menu (every question we asked about the food/personal recommendations, he answered fully without hesitation). The food came very promptly and was delicious. I'm a (very) fussy eater, but everything on my plate was cooked perfectly. This is without doubt one of the best places I've been to in a long time. I really can't fault it. The woman (unfortunately I didn't get her name) who also was working was absolutely lovely. She was very friendly, polite, easy to talk to and, like Dimos, made us feel very welcome. Thank you Dimos for looking after us so well last night. We're very grateful. We really can't wait to go back!

We ordered goats cheese and spinach tart and calamari for starters; fish and chips, vegetarian Wellington, steak with peppercorn sauce and teriyaki salmon with stir fry vegetables for mains for four persons. The food was exemplary and one of the best pub/restaurant we’ve eaten at. Portion size was perfect. Dogs are allowed on the clean, spacious terrace. There were even a number of dog water bowls placed neatly on the terrace, which was a very nice touch. The staff were very attentive and friendly. We will definitely return for another dinner.

Four of us popped in for lunch last Saturday and were very pleased that we did. We were made to feel very welcome by the staff and the pleasant atmosphere. The menu was very large and we had a non-dairy person with us that was very well catered for. Mains were very good as were the deserts. The only downside, although it would not stop us going again, was that we thought it a bit overpriced. But all in all a very pleasant lunch.

Lovely restaurant, friendly staff, good food. The car park is small and you can struggle to park there.

This is our third visit to this Grumpy Mole. Have to say, the service is outstanding from the off! There were no parking spaces when we arrived so the chefs opened the gate for their private parking & allowed us to park in there. The bar staff were amazing, so attentive & great chat. Again, the waitress was lovely although the food runner was a bit loud but smiley none the less. We all had different starters, our friend went for the calamari rings. Wow! I have never seen calamari rings so huge in my life! I went for a more traditional prawn cocktail which was lovely & came with 2 king prawns but I didnt eat those. Dont mind food with its head on still but they looked like they hadn't been washed properly, a bit yellow & the little eggs all on the underside still. Being Easter we all had the lamb for our mains. Half of mine was almost pure fat but the others looked great & aside from that, tasted good. Desserts were lush & with three mint chocolates served alongside our lattes we were fully stuffed by the time we left. Great value for the overall quality of food, service & atmosphere. Highly recommend & will come back again.

The food for afternoon tea for four people was not enough for the price being charged.

We were made to feel very welcome by our waitress Emily. She was very attentive and knowledgeable about the menu , and even adapted things to our tastes, and gave a nice touch to the pudding by adding a candle and having happy birthday sung at the table, would highly recommend this restaurant to anyone.

We had a first class meal here, coupled with a great, friendly service. A cottage style restaurant the Grump Mole had with a varied menu to accommodate a variety of tastes, and it was just such a pleasant experience to eat good food, and enjoy it in relaxed and unhurried way. Superb steak pie - best I have tasted in longgggg while!
