Super delicious and just the right portion. Pair it with a pot of black tea on a cold day. It’s the perfect ending. The vegetarian food is super delicious. Highly recommended.

Wonderful meal at grumpy mole last night, everything cooked to perfection and attentive staff There was only one thing that spoiled it it was extremely noisy. Loads of young children running around and children shouting, parents were not telling them to be quiet. Also a couple of shrieking woman. This was an evening meal, why not take children there lunchtime they were prob tired. This was not the grumpy mole fault at all, but our dinner was spoilt by excessive noise. We were in the conservatory which is normally ok, I do like children and yes I have had two children myself, but I would never let them run around and make a lot of noise, I know it's difficult but it's called consideration. We were trying to have a birthday meal. Next time I shall take ear defenders. The adults were very noisy too it did spoil our meal, we are not crotchety oldies we like Coldplay and the like .Other than that wonderful meal.

Went for the first time 16/10/2024 as menu looked promising. Received a warm welcome however food was bland as lacked flavour and seasoning and portion size and presentation was poor. Fillet steak was one of the smallest I’ve seen and not worth £34. Interesting no weight for the steaks is stated on the menu which is unusual in my experience. Will not be returning as our party all agreed poor value for the money. £195 without service for 4 adults and 2 children for just main courses and garlic bread starters. Drinks 2 small glasses of wine, 2 lagers and an orange juice. Please don’t trust their photographs as you will be very disappointed.

Food and ambience a treat. Slightly confused by the fact that Grumpy Mole comes up when you ring or try to connect with Inn on the green until you realise that that GM runs this Inn and 4 others in the area. That aside, it was worth the need to persevere to get a booking.

Had the most splendid afternoon tea. I opted for just scones with jam and cream. They were big and I was full after eating both. Other members of my group had the full cream tea, which all agreed was delicious. The gluten free tea was a little disappointing. Cake looked like a wedding cake and feedback on the sandwiches were that they were a bit dry. 7/8 customers singing praise though.

I've driven past the pubs on this road since I was a baby, I'd never stopped to try one. Decided on the grumpy mole simply because of its position away from the road on a small village green. I did no research, I had no expectations. I was met with warm and professional hospitality, a table found quickly for us 2 guys, us not really meeting the dress code. No problem it seems. Nice. The menu was correctly sized. It represents England perfectly. Fresh fish, meat, pies, offal. As a rule when I'm somewhere that looks and behaves like it knows what it's doing, I'll order the offal dishes. That's the test. Between the two of us, we had two starters, three mains, and two desserts. Pâté and a scallop bake for starters. The pâté was home made, rich and silky, very luxurious. The scallop bake however was the star. Every part of it was perfectly cooked, and it tasted great. I was very surprised how they managed to not overcook them, but ensure the puff pastry was perfect. For mains, sea bass, steak and kidney pudding, and calves liver and bacon. The sea bass was competently prepared, and tasted good. I disagreed with my partner in that I thought it didn't taste fresh. But, I live in fish country so maybe I'm just used to it being pulled out of the sea only hours before eating. It was good. That much is for sure. The steak and kidney pudding was delicious, perfect suet, perfect cook on the meats. The winner however was the liver and bacon. To cook liver that well, keeping the moisture in, elevating it's natural flavour - it's not easy to find. It was, to me, a clear sign that this place isn't messing around. The ginger pudding and custard, a favourite of mine since childhood, was as sticky and sumptuous as I had wished it would be. My friend was extremely satisfied with the chocolate brownie. The staff were at all times demonstrating class and etiquette, while being friendly and welcoming. This is a must visit, especially if you are foreign, in the area and want to taste proper English food instead of the frozen convenience food many pubs put out. It's the food we ate around the family table growing up, but elevated far beyond. Thank you to the staff for a fantastic experience, and somewhere to recommend that I know won't let me down.

Visited this restaurant yesterday, 15/10/23. Right from the start the front of house was very welcoming and friendly. The waiting staff were also just as welcoming and friendly. The choice of food and quality is outstanding. I chose the Sri Lankan Chicken Curry it was absolutely beautiful. My husband went for the three meat roast dinner meal it looked divine and i was told the meat was beautiful. I hasten to add he didn't leave anything!! The kitchen chef and crew are to be praised. All the staff are a credit to their Manager and i would definitely go back. Well done everyone and thank you for an enjoyable experience.

Visited with my husband and daughter for lunch earlier in the week. We hadn't been here for quite a few years but thought we would try it again. We are very glad that we did, as we found our dishes of curry, fish and chips and steak very good indeed but what made the lunch even more enjoyable was the excellent service we received from our waitress, Abby. She was cheerful and welcoming whilst being very attentive and professional. Despite her young years, she has obviously learned very quickly how to look after her customers, anticipating our need for more drinks, for example, before we had to ask and rushing to pick up cutlery that my daughter had dropped on the floor and quickly replacing it. She is an asset to the Grumpy Mole and deserves 5 stars! We will certainly return.

We had a family meal your establishment for my wife's 80th birthday, yesterday, at 13.30 pm. My only criticism about service was the long gaps between servings. Considering you were serving afternoon teas whilst we were finishing our main course or certainly our desserts. Apart from that, my wife thoroughly enjoyed herself, thanks mainly to the family of course. We will be back, making that iconic quote!

Service very slow, avocado missing from her prawn cocktail, I had to leave my starter to find someone. Fish pie was so dry inedible, they did change it for a chicken pie but it meant my daughter eating after we had finished, plus the peas where like bullets been so overcooked. Was told the chef only just returned but feel at these prices not an excuse. ,

Sitting in the restaurant the staff are really kice however when we booked to get a table over the phone they lied and said they could organise food for the birthday girl that is gluten and dairy free as she is allergic. When we got to the restaurant the waitress we had, whom was a little rude if I'm being honest, said the birthday girl could only eat certain foods without sauces other food she couldn't. It felt like we were lied to a deceived just to come to the restaurant for a disappointing birthday. I will never recommend especially since it is just over priced pub grub

Having had a delicious afternoon tea in Cheam to celebrate my birthday, I decided to treat my husband to the same in Tadworth. Unfortunately, our experience was not as enjoyable. As at Cheam, I had a gluten free option, but, unfortunately, I was rather disappointed with my tea. The sandwiches were very tasty but my scones we're rock hard and I couldn't eat them. Also, the selection of cakes was fewer than my husband's 'normal' tea and not very imaginative. It was all very disappointing. I shall go to Cheam again next time.

Local chippy to my Grandma. When I come over from Thailand for a visit I insist on fish and chips from this fantastic restaurant. I've eaten in once which was great. Usually get a takeaway though. Portion sizes are extremely generous. Bear this in mind when ordering for a few people.
