The King's Arms in Mole Valley

Love this quaint and welcoming historic pub. Beautiful food and reasonably priced. Thoroughly recommend the jerk chicken, and the spiced cherry crush cocktail.

Went for the quiz night had some nachos and beer, good evening with great service. The menu has changed and now no plant based burger or hot dogs, or nachos. Really disappointed 😞

A fantastic pub and hotel. Staff are lovely, drinks very nice, the room was stunning and loved the decor. Breakfast was also extremely tasty. Would definitely visit again.

The topped chips were amazing!!! the atmosphere was great and staff lovely, time waited for food was really slow but. ... worth the wait.

Great pub, friendly atmosphere, staff lovely, had a roast dinner, which was delicious, generous meat portions with great veg accompaniments.

Lovely pub. Gotta say, I eat a lot of burgers and the butchers burger is one of the best, if not the best I've ever had.

Visited here a few times, the Steak, although a little pricy at £30, was amazing. Burgers are great, Staff are lovely, and what a beautiful place to eat. One small letdown, the baked alaska, a generic straight from the freezer, will eat here again and again, will just avoid that pud.

Best wings I’ve ever had. great atmosphere, great indoor and outdoor area. Would 100% recommend!

Nice pub to visit nice food friendly staff.

Came here for a drink with someone, glad to see a gluten free beer (bottled) available - nice pub!

So bad services and very disappointing hygiene standards . The toilets were not clean for ages. The table is disgusting with food remains on it.

Nice old pub with some modern touches.

Wow! Great old pub, what a gem, great food lovely people, will be back soon.

Great little pub. Staying in Dorking for work, searched up online best places/pubs for food and The Kings Arms popped up at the top. Rang up about 12:30 and booked a table for 7pm and asked to be near a tv for the euros football. Ordered food & that came out within 10-15 minutes, was very tasty and filling and also a great price. Would highly recommend people to visit this pub.

Good beer and cheerful service although sometimes understaffed at busy times

Food was mediocre, nothing special. Service was nearly non existent. Toilets filthy with poo wee and bogies up the wall. Only good thing was the background music.

Good place for drinking and the staff is very nice ☺️ We got several drinks 😁 I will be back again to that lovely place!Well done 👍

Steak pie was great! Crispy on the outside and full of flavor inside. The haddock and chips was also excellent! Great introduction to English pub food to we first-time visitors.

Heya. This is my first time at this pub in Dorking. We were here for a lovely early dinner. I do love it. The food is good and so were the drinks too. I will return soon. Five out of five stars. Recommended if you are in the area. Thank you so much. The level of service is not bad either.

The food was amazing. Lovely little bar and seating area

Great pub, with good drinks and friendly staff. Really like the atmosphere in here and the live music is fantastic. Will return.

My partner and I visited with our puppy today for lunch. The food and drinks were delicious and we were made to feel very welcome by the staff and the locals. A great pub with a brilliant atmosphere that is definitely worth a visit. We can’t wait to go back.

Fabulous new menu!! So many great veggie options too - really really enjoyed this meal. Will definitely be back to try more new menu items.

Had Sunday lunch, I had traditional Roast Pork with the usual accompaniments. Partner and daughter had Katsu and Nut Roast respectively. Everyone thought food was great in terms of taste and quantity, atmosphere good so no negatives. One tiny point, although we had booked a table and the table was available, it wasn't made clear that you ordered at the bar and the impression I got when we came in was that it was table service so we waited for 15 minutes before finding out. To end on a plus the price at around £17 each I thought very reasonable for Surrey (we were guests in the county).

Good pub food and service, lovely historic building with good atmosphere and felt safe to visit, would go again

We did not eat here this time but great atmosphere

Great pub on the high street to pop into after work

Pub managed to fit us in despite no booking on a football match day. Cosy decorated interior and amazing burgers! Highly recommend. I didn’t see any gluten free options on the menu

Really good pub excellent food and service!

Food was tasty and warm, lots to pick from, all 6 lunches perfectly cooked

Great pub to go to for drinks and food, country pub with great staff which are always happy to help. Food is amazing and reasonably priced! You get a lot for what you are paying

Lovely friendly staff. Always a great atmosphere when I visit. Will definitely have to try the food on my next visit

Excellent pub - good entertainment on the Saturday night we visited

Brilliant evening in great company 😀

Lovely friendly staff. Great beer, amazing food. Family friendly atmosphere. You cant go wrong here.

Traditional old fashioned pub, divided into several rooms. Comfortable, good beer, Shepherd and Names.

Really nice pub, you will like this place. You might want to wait and have a wee at home though a the toilets are skanky.

Visited here with friends in a large group and we were all made very welcome. Polite and friendly staff. Loved this place

Whether calm or full of life, we always enjoy our time spent here. Relaxed environment, food's lush and staff are always polite and friendly. Live music nights are the best in my opinion 😝

Perfectly cooked fish and chips and pizza in a friendly historic setting. Good staff and great beer. Just does the basics so well. What a great pub should be

Came for 1 pint, stayed for 6 🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺

Good Christmas lunch there. Rated the service down a bit as we struggled to find a staff member to take our money ! Good selection of beer and others enjoyed the house wine.

We went for a spontaneous Christmas lunch with work colleagues-we rang ahead to book the table and to ask if we needed to pre-order food (as we knew it would be busy!) When we arrived, the server had no idea of the booking. We were showed to our table after some confusion and were told it would be an hours wait for food. It was busy, however not to the point where food should take an hour. We told them if it would be longer than this, we would need the food to takeaway. An hour goes by and no food. We asked how much longer it would be and were told another 20 minutes. Bearing in mind this was for sandwiches and chips-not main meals. We had to request to get the food to takeaway. Not once during all of this was there an apology. They were clearly understaffed, which is not fair on the servers. However, an update/apology about the wait would've been appreciated. It's a shame as the pub is lovely-traditional and cosy. The food itself was also very nice, however cold by the time we got back to the office to eat it!!

Visited for the first time yesterday and really enjoyed it, staff were friendly & welcoming so we’re the locals & the food was amazing, will definitely be returning in the future.

Lovely friendly pub,was in Dorking for football, was busy ,but bar staff very polite and helpful,lovely pub with so much character

Must visit, is like travelling back in time, Wonderful

Where is the King's Arms? Always on Queen's laps!!! Always good in The Kings Arms!!!

Good food. My pint was excellent due to the cask being left correctly after it being racked and left to settle. Also the pint was crystal clear due to the lines being cleaned correctly

Didn't eat here but atmosphere was fun. Live music was good on a Saturday night!

Great service, food and nice atmosphere. Staff were very understanding of my allergies and food was very tasty and well presented. Would come again. Thanks, everyone.

3rd and final stop of our mini Dorking pub crawl. Another excellent pub and well worth a visit. This one even had a dog 😁

Went for food on Saturday night. Was busy but not rammed, staff where nice and cheerful. I thought the food was a little pricey but the quality made up for this.

Great tradional pub in Guildford

A great local pub. Friendly staff, a good selection of drinks and tasty food. Very dog friendly.

Great British Pub. Excellent atmosphere, friendly environment and great local live bands. Highly recommended!

Great food and service. Massive food portions

Friendly staff, really nice atmosphere. Everyone had a really good time. Nice building, well kept.

Favourite place for a Sunday roast. The absolute best!

The King's Arms is an ancient pub, timber framed, added on to over the centuries and generally interesting. It has a sort of island bar, with seating split between multiple sections. There is also a courtyard and a backyard seating area. The inside has seen a good deal of maintenance and decoration in recent history and the yard has had a lot of effort invested in the last year, now being open at the rear, with some characterful new seating and a much brighter feel. I think this was only my third visit in the last year. Despite being in Dorking frequently, the only reason I don't regularly use this pub is that I personally find Shepherd Neame beers very uninteresting. SN seem to have a policy of not having guest beers; an offering from a local brewery or an interesting regional beer from further afield, would make the King's a much more attractive prospect! Add to that that my pint of Whitstable Bay on my last visit was in very poor condition, I'm not in a rush to return. If a company with a passion for good beer ever took over this pub, it could be an absolute gem! Happy drinking!

Lovely staff , services was fast , Food was absolutely amazing & portion sizes are great 😋 Myself , partner and kids loved it !! Thank you to all the workers for making our night amazing 🤩

Lovely pub full of character bar staff friendly & provide excellent customer service

Impromptu vist to catch up with friends, stayed for food and the place was busy and great atmosphere 👌

I absolutely adore the Kings Arms, it is the best pub / restaurant in dorking- The staff here are very welcoming and friendly, especially when you get to know them they will remember your usual but always ask incase you want something different. The food is fantastic i recommended the hot wings which come in different serving sizes. It’s also the oldest pub in dorking and the old wooden beams make for great old timey atmosphere. Great pub.

A very disappointing family meal out overall. The food was ok, general pub food. But no roast on a Sunday, just standard gastro menu of burgers and fish & chips. But my word, the service. Utterly shocking, rude, non-existent. We had a booking for a group of 13, booked in advance, but there was clearly a lack of staffing to handle us and a few other tables. We had NO table service, had to get our own menus off other tables & ask for additional cutlery. We asked about roasts and the South African waiter/bar man/ I don’t even know was so rude in his response of ‘its summer, no roasts in the summer’ - who knew!? This was shouted at us as he walked off… For such a large group booking and a large bill to help pay their wages for the day, the service completely ruined the experience. It is a luxury these days to eat out, there’s a cost of living crisis, I suggest the staff, namely the guy, need to improve on their customer service skills to ensure they have a job & keep the hospitality industry afloat… we will not be returning.

Great food, served by fabulous staff. The sharing wings are fantastic. If it’s good enough for Cameron Diaz, it’s good enough for me!

Great pub food and service was excellent.

Food was great, service fantastic special mention to Leila. Would recommend the tuna and the club sandwich.

Great service from Leila and delicious food. We had a lovely lunch and will be back!

burger was like brick. Thought it might knock down the 15th century wall .. didn't try it but maybe worth a shot if you visit. Overall staff friendly and chips were crunchy. hope you don't break a tooth.

Pretty good if you fancy just a drink but the food was disappointing. The beef burger was awful, if you get it then ask without the pickle inside. It ruins the taste of the burger extremely potent vinegar flavour and mutes the taste of everything. Burger was over cooked and dry which was a shame as it was thick. The chicken burger was soggy and overcooked. Chewy and plain. The kids sausage and mash was probably the best, peas where undercooked and mash tasted like smash but lumpy. Didn’t have either the tuna or sticky toffee in which was the only thing that was wanted by myself. Ended up with the waffle for pudding, the waffle was ever so slightly warm, very stale and had a sourness to it. Got given vanilla ice cream instead of honeycomb, only reason I ordered it was for that. Was suppose to have a caramelised banana to which was just a fresh sliced banana. Unfortunately I never got told when ordering about buying the kids main and dessert that it was £9 instead ordering separately I was charged more & never got given a receipt first time around. Overall a pretty terrible place to eat. I’d recommend going elsewhere, only good thing is the beer on tap. Would recommend for a drink but that’s about it.

Spot on good food, setting is spot on.

Bar person was totally professional, despite his young years. The food, I had fish and chips, possibly the best I've ever tasted. Only downside the beer was £5.90 for a pride, I'm used to £4.30.

Pub quiz tables need to be reserved on a Monday night. We requested answer sheets despite being able to hear quiz master clearly from the courtyard outside but our request was denied.

Whenever I come to brentford I always stop at the Kings Arms for a sneaky drink or two before seeing my mate in Ealing

Gpod place fpr a bite and a beer...

Had a lovely time here, the wings are fantastic, amazing atmosphere and brilliant staff and service.

Slightly tricky to score this one because after a fair few visits, generally I rate it quite highly. Good draught selection, friendly staff and atmosphere, dog friendly. Most of the food has been very nice however I’ve also had a couple of below par meals too. For example the beef roast recently, large portion however was just a bit below average quality wise, especially the meat which was overcooked and bland. Perhaps a bad joint but at £19 I would expect quality over quantity really. Personally I would go elsewhere for a roast but for the main menu, I would generally recommend. Overall a nice pub though.

Great staff, good range of lagers plus draft bitter. Wings were moist and well cooked, so reason not to expect rest of dishes to be well cooked.

Fantastic traditional pub serving great British classics set right in the centre of Dorking. We sat outside as they had their pub quiz going on that evening but it was still really comfortable and they have heaters dotted around. Service was quick, staff were all lovely and welcoming. Food was fantastic, portion sizes were brilliant and great value for money. Would definitely recommend if visiting Dorking.

What you see, is what you get. No airs and graces. Genuine pleasantries from staff and Messy Cow is delish! To the point - very satisfied. Thank you.

Food was very good quality, price was about right for the area. Nice atmosphere

Very accommodating in providing me with a vegan lunch which was not on the menu. Excellent service!

Nice local, good array of beers, good banter with the staff and a great range of pub food (burgers, chips etc) The Chilli chips are a meal in themselves

Good pub, excellent music venue

Another Fantasic Dorking pub, very old place with a long history. Great live band playing Madness, The Specials, The Who and many more. Fabulous atmosphere.

Great service despite being busy. Great atmosphere with friendly customers.

It may seem really small and cozy when you first go in but there are a few nooks and outdoor areas to find a place to sit! They quite often have some live music playing and the wings are amazing (best I’ve had in a long while)

Our favorite pub in Dirking, very nice!

People great, staff wholesome and genuine, music a vibe, drinks affordable, food tasty and cheaper than a gastropub, and above all some low-key lit karaoke night 🔥

Good lively pub not best or cheapest beer in Dorking but have band nights and Popular

Lovely Easter Sunday lunch lovely friendly staff a slight mix up but on the whole very good .Yes well worth a visit ,there were 19 of us so well done to the Chef and waitresses we musnt forget bar staff

Absolutely recommend this pub, loaded fried and burgers were amazing!

Good atmosphere and the food was good, chicken wings reccomended

Lovely pub, just gorgeous! Old style, small but very busy, good selection on the menu! Pies were amazing! Lovely deserts for kids only for £1!!!! No parking as it right in the middle of one way system in the centre of town, but parked near Lidl and the walk took us about 5 min.

Good pub with good selection of beers in an atmospheric building.

Classic old English pub. Staff are really lovely and with a warm welcoming atmosphere.

Very good atmosphere and food :)

Great place friendly staff nice atmosphere.

Good wine, pleasant atmosphere and good service in a beautiful very old pub
