The New Caterham Arms in Tandridge - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Was here today to celebrate a christening! We had a BBQ that was organised by family instead of the buffet option. It was lovely. All your usual BBQ meats and a selection of salads. Food was lovely and the staff were very helpful and friendly. The bouncy castle for the kids in the garden is a great idea as the kids didn't get off of it. Outside seating area was lovely and clean and great having it covered as we did have a bit of rain.

We are from Germany, we were there for dinner 3 times, very friendly staff, the dinner was great. Atmosphere is warmhearted. Really good food, a super nice chef, nice staff, perfect for children

I work in a care home in caterham the people I look after have learning disabilities and some have dysphagia which means they have to have their food blended to a certain consistency It is very difficult to find anywhere that will accommodate this As soon as we arrived the chef came over and asked how we needed the food done he even knew what level it was I was so impressed also the presentation was amazing All the staff where very friendly and engaged with the two people I took there it was one of my people's birthday and they made his day I left feeling so happy I had found somewhere that was accepting of the people I look after I have been to several pubs in caterham and they have refused to make any food Overall an amazing experience

Spent a lovely afternoon here, bouncy castle for the kids. Great food and service. The staff are very polite and friendly. Will definitely come back and will also recommend to friends / family.

Very pleasant in the sunshine in the garden. Staff also served the drink to me there and gave me water for my dog.

We have just left the caterham arms having had the most amazing burger. The service from the staff was top class and the chef...what a diamond. Such good value for money and the atmosphere was just perfect for a sunny Saturday afternoon. We'll definitely be coming back. Highly recommend. Big thank you to the team x

This is the third time I’ve eaten here recently and each time the food has been outstanding. Loved the curry night with friends , Brought the kids a few weeks back and today with my husband. Chef is really amenable to helping or dietary requests as well. X

I was able to be given the restaurant for my baby shower and it did not disappoint! Gerry and his team were so attentive. They helped myself and my family set up, they got everything we requested, they were so friendly and kind to guests and also put the bouncy castle up for the children. The food and drinks were fantastic. Highly recommend having your events here in the future. I definitely will be 😀

This was a last minute decision as we were passing the pub at lunchtime and we were not disappointed. The food was very good and the steak melted in your mouth. It was also well presented and the staff were lovely.

1st time I tried this local pub for work lunch with three people today. It's far exceeded my expectations. Staff were friendly. Good Menu selection. Food was well presented & taste as good as it looks. Whole Cherry tomatoes on vine was used. The dessert is also homemade, & delicious! Welcome to the chef Its like being in a high standard West End restaurant . Try to load photos but its didn't work from my mobile. Will definitely be back.

Perfect food and great staff! We really enjoyed our time there! The garden was beautiful too!

Stopped in here for a late lunch. It was pretty empty, but the pub is really well laid out with a lovely garden and plenty of seating options. We ordered their cheeseburger meal. I can honestly say that the wait whilst the chef cooked everything from scratch, was well worth it. The burger was so so tasty and the chips nice and fresh, fluffy in inside and nice and crispy on outside...GREAT VALUE FOR MONEY TOO! As it that wasn't enough on it's own, we were served a complimentary Mango Smoothie with a BlackBerry and strawberry on the side. This Smoothie was so smooth, creamy and tasty......it was an excellent chance find and we will certainly be back. Thank you for an awesome meal chef!!

We chose The Caterham Arms for the wake after our mum's funeral this week and are extremely happy with our choice The food was quite simply incredible & very reasonably priced The staff could not have been more helpful & were genuinely interested in making sure the evening went well for us At the end of the night I could not thank them enough and I know many of us are hoping to go back there for dinner very soon I cannot recommend them highly enough And, to Brian, Paul & the others, if you see this, thanks very much again! 👍

Had an amazing experience here on sun. With a group of 7. The cost of this was great on my budget! Will definitely recommend and return. And to top puddings were to die for

My name is Steve Mountford and on Monday we held my wife's wake there the owners were fantastic guys the staff were fantastic to and chef Paul was amazing he covered 2 wakes at the same time given great food plus he covered people' with eating difficulties and even more than all that he covered small children's special foods as well I can not thank the Caterham Arms enough for what was a very difficult day for me and thanks to the owners staff and the chef Paul I just wish to say thank you and I will definitely be back soon god bless

Great roast! It is Deffently worth a visit. Bouncy castle in the garden. All staff and chefs very friendly.

We have been to the Caterham Arms twice in the last month. The chef is great! Super attentive, produces great tasting food, lovely little touches in terms of presentation. Very impressed

What a Pub and amazing Chef. It's been a while since I thoroughly enjoyed a pub meal. Being a veggie choices can be slim however this is my second time here and I've had 2 outstanding meals. The chef Paul is on another level of service. He literally comes and speaks to me to inquire about my tastes and knocks up an amazing meal. The carvery on a Sunday is great on its own however Paul knocked up an extra special dish. Today I had a falafel burger with feta cheese and chips. My wife had fish and chips which she enjoyed. Paul is an asset to this pub and I highly recommend this place. All staff are attentive and the pub itself is big with plenty of outside space. Can't fault it.

Large party of 22 - mixture of adults and children. Food was amazing, children portions were massive and brilliant value. Burger was best burger I’ve tasted locally and beautiful. Server was very friendly and very attentive. Brilliant place for families with a bouncy castle in the garden. Will definitely be our new place to go for food and celebrations. Thank you!

Absolutely beautiful food. Only went in for a drink but we saw the food and had to try, and oh my it was wonderful! Highly recommend!

Visited on Tuesday. Spoke to chef the day before to confirm they did curry. Very good curry followed by excellent lemon posset. Very friendly staff and chef went out of his way to keep us happy. Menu looks good. Will definitely visit again.

Another great meal at the Caterham Arms.....excellent food and good value. The new chef continues to impress.

I don't usually write reviews, but our visit to The Caterham Arms a month ago or so ago was great. A group of five of us dined here midweek and we were all really impressed with the food. The menu is fantastic, offering a wide range of options beyond the usual pub fare. As someone with coeliac disease, finding good gluten-free options can be challenging, but this place had plenty to choose from. The chef even came out to speak with me personally, which was incredibly reassuring. He even suggested additional dishes he could adapt to make them gluten-free dishes. The food itself was outstanding—beautifully prepared and absolutely delicious. I have nothing but praise. We'll definitely be returning soon. Even just for the lemon posset! It was a bit dead when we went in there (midweek lunchtime), so not much atmosphere. That can be changed once people know how good the food is ;) Thanks

I brought my son and his friend for a lunch, the staff made the children feel special and the kids menu was delicious: ) I am vegan and the chef went out of his way to made me the most amazing vegan salad and pudding. Highly recommended!

Had an 85th party. Approx 80 guests. The staff could not do enough for us, so polite and helpful. We had a buffet which was amazing and plenty. My guests all commented on how nice it all tasted. The service was fantastic. Would highly recommend for all your party celebrations, big or small.

Brilliant! On arrival clean and beautiful pub and lush garden , staff Shannon and co had loads of lunch options enjoyed a chicken and chips such a wonderful crew chef paul introduced us to the prawn cocktail and this was so plump and fresh had me wanting to lick the glass! To finish we had lemon possset with cherry compote I am sold on this place and I'll be telling everyone to make a effort to stop by and enjoy it as much as I did. well done caterham arms 😁🥳💕

Absolutely love this place a real traditional English pub That provide outstanding food , including the best roast dinner on Sundays just like you mum would make . Wonderfully friendly and helpful staff that are always happy to help. Family friendly ❤️

Travelled up from Somerset to see some family and popped in for some lunch. We ordered a carvery and some burgers. We were told at the time of placing the orders that the burgers would take a little longer. Admittedly, it was a while, but you cannot fault the food we were served and the way the situation was handled. Fantastic! The carvery was really delicious, and the burgers were fantastic also. Credit to them. So please, if you're in the area, seriously think about going here. You won't be disappointed. ☺️☺️☺️

The cottage pie croquettes were absolutely amazing, and I was pleasantly surprised to discover such delicious sauce in a Surrey pub.

One of the best dining experiences I’ve had in a while. The chef was absolutely brilliant. Made sure we had everything we needed. Food was delicious. The chef went out of his way and even had desert on the house. Will definitely be one of my favourite places.

Had a Sunday lunch here today. The carvery was well cooked with a good variety and the vegetable paella was absolutely delicious. The Service was helpful and friendly and it was reasonably priced. Would recommend.

The beef oh my days and the sticky toffee pudding no words😋😋😋😋😋😋😋💯

Attended a family 90th birthday celebration at the restaurant at the Caterham Arms on Easter Monday. There was a large party of attendees and the food was delicious. The chef was wonderful in putting a menu together for the guests to chose from in advance and the quality of the food was very good. I look forward to going back to sample the new menu.

Had a family get together. Must say staff were very attentive and welcoming. Food was excellent despite it being a very large group. Chef and his team were flexible and spot on with everything.

We had been let down by original booking ( kitchen closed due to staff shortages) so trying to find a suitable place to eat bang in the middle of Sunday lunchtime was going to be tricky, to the rescue The Caterham Arms , was meet by a member of staff on the decking area and was told they could fit us in ,if we didn't mind waiting at the bar whilst they cleaned a table, time we walked through to the bar was lead straight to our table where we were greeted by our server , who took our drinks order and pointed the way to the food Can't fault a thing , chef was happy and gave good servings,the different servers, polite ,who checked everything was ok, clean tables and reasonably priced too for what we had , happy to visit again

We enjoyed a lovely meal. Food and service were perfect. Highly recommend and lovely to have this so local. A very welcoming pub and restaurant.

Great hospitality and involved service.Generous parking.Chef,a Cork man,knows his stuff.

The new menu is great, the food was amazing and full of flavour. Service and staff were very friendly

Loved this place so relaxing and the food was absolutely delicious. I had a sunday roast (chicken) would definitely go back.

excellent Sunday roast ‘ food and service 5*

We came in over the weekend with the children and I must say the service was absolutely incredible. We ordered meals for the children and the chef was very accommodating to our needs. Us adults aswell as the children ate all of our food and once finishing the chef came out personally to ask if the children would like a dessert of their choice. Both men behind the bar were absolutely amazing with the service. Would definitely recommend and we will be eating here a lot more from now on ☺️

food was delicious. the fish was cooked perfectly and seasoned well. the service and staff were great and the food came quickly. looking forward to going back to try other food on the menu

Absolutely beautifully cooked meats and Veg,very attentive staff,kitchen staff and Chef,I would recommend the Carvery, help yourself to your vegetables, great atmosphere all over ,definitely go again ,throughly enjoyed thank god

Not a great place. Lack of friendly feeling and gents toilets area dump. Expensive drink and won't be going back in a hurry.

Went for a family Sunday lunch. The food and service was great. Extra stars for the chef for making sure food allergies are well catered for.

Went for a girls dinner tonight! The food was really good! The new chef Paul was lovely and very accommodation for our vegetarian friend! Would recommend

Friendly local, serving great food. Food is not served all day though, so please check first.

The pub was virtually empty but the Doom bar was in good condition and the lady running the bar very welcoming. Lots of screens and clearly a popular pub in normal hours.

Great atmosphere. Tvs on, with half the guests watching Crystal Palace and the others watching England rugby

Fajne przytulne miejsce na obiad z rodziną polecam

Great pub to watch sports. Food portions were quite small and expensive for what you got, selection was limited. Nice selection of beers and free wifi.

This was a big family celebration that had been booked for months. WHAT A SHAMBLES! No menus no cutlery and even worse no food! We ordered on the app to be told it wasn’t working and had to re order. That meant paying twice. Literally more then half the menu was unavailable. They knew we were coming yet they weren’t prepared. Beware. It sounds lovely.. bouncy castle, sports tv etc it was sheer chaos.

A lovely carvery at a reasonable rate. Cold beer , effective quick table cleaning, the sport on TV visible everywhere. Lamb, pork, chicken, beef all included and well prepared along with the vegetables. Nice dessert to boot. Who can fault this. It was my first visit but definitely not my last. Looking forward to the summer braais.

We had family get together on saturday The staff were excellent Service was amazing great food was lovely Great venue

Great out door area for private party, good food and great selection of beers and cider

Attended a 40th Birthday Party..... brilliant venue. Food was excellent. Staff were very friendly and very efficient. Great outdoor space too. Totally recommend.

We had the Sunday roast carvery and it was very good and excellent value. Staff are very friendly and welcoming.

Great atmosphere, friendly staff.

Lovely carvery very friendly and attentive staff reasonably priced highly recommended 👌

Really nice day. Staff is really friendly and helpful. My daughter had her baby shower here. Great time had by all.

This pub is the best pub in the whole of Tandridge. Friendly efficient and comfortable.

I had steak and kidney pudding and it was full of gristle, they tried to charge us for drinks we didn't have

I came here with my family on Christmas day and was greeted immediately and was seated down at a table. I was asked for drinks and was given them swiftly. The starter was exemplary, i had the duck which was very nice which was brought in perfect time. the waiter constantly checked on me and my table which was perfect. The waiter was polite and managed the restaurant very well; removing used plates etc. The main was a carvery for Christmas dinner. the potatoes were lovely, crisp, flavourful and the meat was delicious and moist. Vegetables were perfect and the whole meal was perfect. For dessert i had the floating island which was new to me and was nice again. The meal and service was top notch and the young lad waitering was very polite and welcoming from the start, also the bar lady was polite and helpful. i will be returning with my family and thoroughly enjoyed the meal especially on christmas. thankyou for a brilliant meal

Fantastic customer service, we arranged to meet at The Caterham Arms for our Christmas football celebrations. On arrival we was given the private dinning area which was perfect. All staff very friendly. Definitely recommend.

Great food, lovely friendly service, will definitely be back

WMelt in the mouth beef, delicious Vegetables, the cauliflower cheese is the best I had for a long time. Couldn't fault it. The chef brought Gluten free gravy when we asked for it. SERVICE IS TOP CLASS. WE EAT HERE ALMOST EVERY WEEK. Lovely pub.

Called in for Sunday carvery. Food mediocre, only two choices of meat as lamb finished, poor selection of vegetables, carrots (overcooked), peas and cabbage. Expensive too for what was on offer.

Nowhere to sit inside and one half shut

We ate at this carvery yesterday 16th October 2022 and had booked in advance asking for gluten free meals. The man who served us had no real idea of what was gluten free and eventually said that the Yorkshire pudding and the macaroni cheese would not be. There was no lamb left so we had beef, but the joint was tough as it was only cooked on the outside but raw in the middle. There were no potatoes left but he insisted on serving us the small remains of them still in the dish with a promise to bring more to our table later. We then asked for gluten free gravy, and he stated that it was in the jug. However, that proved not to be true. By the end of the meal, we both began to feel strange, and got home as soon as possible. Once there, we were very ill, shaky, and just collapsed into bed. For people like us whose lives depend upon eating food that is safe to us, the attitude in this carvery is very poor, so we warn you about eating there!

Welcoming staff, good food and drink.

Great pub, friendly staff, and great outdoor seating facility. Parking right in front. Great!

Friendly atmosphere , nice surroundings, great pub

Such a friendly pub. Garden, BBQ, Live Sports fab food and drinks including cocktails 🍹 & wide selection of soft drinks. Great for all the family.

A beautiful pub serving delicious food! I went with the family for a BBQ and the food was amazing. The staff were very friendly and welcoming, nothing seemed too much for them. The pub has a reasonably sized car park and the property is tastefully decorated and is well maintained.

Family Pub of mixed ages, good food, good beer and an excellent bunch of customers. Join the Club🥰🥰

We had my Step mum's retirement party here! Great pub, nice staff, tasty food. I love the outside part too

Food piping hot and delicious, service very accurate, will be back. The setting is lovely, very friendly and inviting.

Great local pub with a very warm and welcoming atmosphere. Lovely outdoor seating areas.

Went for the carvery on a Sunday. Was horrible. None of us liked the food. Pudding was yuck. Did complain but made no difference. Not cheap in there either. Sorry, won't be going back.

After being let down short notice by another venue we held our sons first birthday party here. We hired the covered decking area and it was absolutely perfect. Gerry and the team let us decorate and move tables around as we pleased. We pre ordered pizzas and added a few more on last minute - they were so good and went down very well with our adults and children guests. We would definitely recommend The Caterham Arms for a party venue. The only (very small) negative comment we could make is that the garden at the rear was a little messy, being a bank holiday Monday we assumed a busy Sunday evening had been had! This didn’t take away from the brilliant time we had!

Absolutely perfectly cooked food, was delicious, and the staff and service was second to none. Will be back soon based on my first experience here. Very happy customers

Great pub usually was there yesterday and had a chicken burger with chips. Today I have food poisoning. Most likely a one off as have eaten in there before l.

Great service, excellent beer I have to say, and the food looks interesting but I haven't tried it yet. Enormous garden and covered seating. Only disappointment was that the pool tables and dartboard have gone.. says on their site traditional pub games so a bit bemused by that.. .. however, the beer and service more than make up for it (almost)😉 Will try and smuggle a dartboard in there on my next visit lol

We had an amazing time, we have only just got home and we have already discussed returning! The staff were so friendly, kind and went above and beyond for me and my family. We had a lovely time and made some very special memories too and the food was delicious, thank you so much.

Amazing pub looked after us all night definitely returning soon. The staff was amazing food was lovely. 5* pub

Went for a Sunday carvery with my mum and it surpassed expectations! The food was amazing, the carvery was very good and they had a dessert trolly! The staff were all so lovely and helpful. I couldn’t recommend more.

What a lovely place lovely staff too well recommend

Celebrated my daughter's baby shower last weekend. It was good event as the food (Chef Anotonio) was excellent and the young lady (sorry dont know her name) who served us was very professional, helpfull and polte. This is my second event taking place in Caterham Arms. The only criticism is the pub owner needs to be more efficient as I had to chase to get everything put in place for the day.

Recently renovated and they sell Brixton beer by the pint

The history i have with the "arms" is unsurpassed, from the mid seventies when my mother was in there to my very heady days of the nineties it has been a great pub. As with most pubs it's become a licensed restaurant. Gerry & his awesome team have made it a pleasure to go for a beer after work as i do, Antonio has made the food a personal 5 star mission. I'm taking the family for a roast on Sunday & looking forward to it. Great environment. Well done guy's 👌

What a lovely pub to visit. The hosts were so welcoming and the food is great. Will definitely go there next weekend.
