The Red Barn in Tandridge

6 adults & 7 children dinner on a Sunday evening. The adults had roast we ordered a 4 person & a 2 person roast. There was plenty of everything to eat. Throughly enjoyed by all. The children had burger and fish all plates were cleared. The service was polite and efficient. Great evening.

All communications with staff setting up our family celebratory lunch party for 25 was first class. The staff were all courteous and efficient and nothing was too much trouble The food was enjoyed by all attendees and the team went out of their way to ensure we had a memorable time. The venue is excellent with options of seating and good car parking facilities An excellent choice .Thank you

Didn’t have the carrot rosti I ordered so I had the beef salad - way too much chilli sauce - was really unpleasant We love the red barn usually but the food was a disappointment

Have been to a few events here over the years and have had the same experience. Nice all round.

Meeting up with friends lovely building. All good except beer very expensive !! Beyond London prices.

Visited here for Mother’s Day, one of the best roast dinners I’ve had! Very tasty food full of flavour and very reasonably priced. Deserts were all lovely 10/10 from all 3 of us! Service was good and the atmosphere was lovely. Busy due to Mother’s Day but not at all over crowed. Thank you!

Very nice venue and atmosphere Disappointed with menu - 3 mains had run out at 7 o’clock on a Saturday Service was friendly

Had Sunday roast at the red barn it was lovely and well looked after by staff

We brought a group of friends from France for lunch and they all lives the whole experience. Food, especially the fish and chips, ambiance and service. Thank you to the whole team.

Outstanding service, can’t fault it! Delicious food with really generous portions. Beautiful setting loved the whole experience. Highly recommend.

Nice pub, great location, large car park, friendly staff, unfortunately the chicken was a bit overcooked.

Nice, spacious place, with lots of outdoors sitting for those nice spring Sundays when everyone wants to go out! Food is good.

Beautiful looking pub but I'd only return for drinks unless it was very quiet. Visited on a Sunday and it was busy with what seemed like not enough staff around. The £10 calamari starter was delicious but the serving was so small (3 tiny pieces). Goats cheese starter was good. Our mains took over an hour to arrive and we had to chase. The lamb shank was overcooked, dry and didn't fall off the bone. At £28 it should be cooked correctly. Think it may have been left beneath a heat lamp for too long. One of the cheeseburgers was incorrectly served and should have been kids but was adult sized (and they tried to charge for an adults burger when the bill came). It strangely arrived with just lettuce in it too so returned it for it to be returned with the other fillings but this time with the cheese missing so gave up after this and after waiting for over an hour, my child went without the cheese. Adult burger came with just chips and no side salad/coleslaw or anything extra which is fine if you're not paying premium prices but we were. No condiments offered. The food was served and they disappeared before we could request anything. Had to get up to find somebody. Bill came with no offer of any discount and the service charge was on it still. I explained the issues and a member of staff went away, removed the lamb and adjusted the bill to change from adult to child's burger but no real apology or explanation. The service charge was still on the bill too. All pretty disappointing.

Delicious roast lunch and very good service. The only negative was that we were sat in large armchairs, which seemed a little bizarre! We had to sit on a cushion towards the front of the seat in order to try and find a comfortable eating position. I think the armchairs would be more suitable for snacks at the fireside, but that’s just a minor quibble. We look forward to returning time and again.

Dish up starters then tell you they've run out of one. Offer an on the house starter, then 30 mins later tell you they've run out of that one FFS!!! 90 mins after entering the restaurant still waiting for main course. ABYSMAL doesn't come close!!!! Eventually the main courses arrived. 1hr 40min after arrival and the threat of us walking out. These were luke warm, and so overcooked it was an insult to dish them up. Not a pleasant experience. I would suggest people check out the last few trip advisor reviews. We should have and would have avoided spoiling a special birthday lunch.

Can’t comment on food and service as we never got any. 2 hours into our booking and main course is still not here. They keep running out starters.

Have loved going to the Red Barn for years. The food used to be amazing. The venue is lovely, however the food now is second rate. Limited menu, 50% not available! Did not enjoy the food, very basic, not tasty. No thought has gone into the menu or the quality of the food. Not booking to go again sadly :(

Decidedly average, the pub itself is lovely and in amazing surroundings. However everything else is poor. The menu was very limited from what I have found in other places, not helped by the fact that 2 out of the 6 starters were unavailable. When the food came it was very basic, so was left very disappointed.

The service was good but the food was disappointing. The menu is quite limited and even that wasn't all available. What is available isn't great quality.

It wasn't good. The venue itself is lovely. I thought the menu was very limited. We were greeted at the table to be told what was not available. That was okay we could pick around that but there wasn't much to choose from. The 'while you wait' nibbles are good and I should have picked those for my main meal. They didn't even have mayo to go with burger and fries. What pub doesn't have a jar of Mayo. Over priced and disappointing.

We were very excited to attend this restaurant; however, our food wasn’t up to standards. For the high price, we only got one slice of meat each, 1 sometimes 2 potatoes (there were 9 of us and only 2 of us got parsnips), it wasn’t a filling meal for a roast. We also wasn’t informed there wasn’t horseradish until we got our (Beef) roast meal. We had ordered the cauliflower cheese side which was served as a whole cauliflower which was impossible to serve. The meal was look warm and we didn’t receive the extra gravy requested. We got charged for 2 more beers that we didn’t receive. Overall, an unfortunate experience for such a highly rated restaurant.

I took my wife to The Red Barn for an impromptu date night and I won't be going again. The service was slow as it took an age for drinks to be brought over and ice was included in the soft drinks when I politely asked prior for no ice (I asked twice). My wife's starter came out a good ten minutes before mine...why? The calamari was very rubbery and I did not enjoy it at all. The lamb shank was adequate at best and certainly not what I would expect for £28.50! The pub itself is lovely and that's why I chose to go there. I went there earlier the same day for lunch with a friend and the service was even slower. I thought I'd give it the benefit of the doubt and arrange for dinner later that evening with my wife...I really wish I hadn't. We will not be coming back. I am glad that the discretionary service charge wasn't added to the bill or I would've asked for it to be removed! Something I have never done before.

Dear Filip, Very disappointed that I must leave another review as my emails go unanswered. You have my contact details and I would appreciate a response. Best regards.

Just a. Really nice restaurant, good food, lively atmosphere and amazingly friendly and helpful staff.

Although we booked we were given a table in a very cold, draft area of the building. By the time we sat to order the mushrooms parfait has finished as well as the lamb. There was no one choice of green vegetables in the side orders, the gravy was watery. We’ve been visiting the Red Barn for 15 years. It’s getting worse every time.

Really great atmosphere, good food, staff and service. Large carpark.

Disappointing Decline in Standards I recently visited The Red Barn in Lingfield with friends to celebrate my birthday, and unfortunately, it was a thoroughly disappointing experience from start to finish. Atmosphere and Service: When we arrived, the restaurant was less than half full, yet several tables hadn’t been cleared. This immediately set a poor tone. Our waitress greeted us by announcing that multiple dishes were unavailable, and there were no specials on offer—surprising for a Saturday evening. Service throughout the evening was slow and disorganised. We waited a long time to order both drinks and food. Plates from our starters weren’t cleared before the mains arrived, and when we requested clean cutlery, a rather unfriendly waitress dumped a handful onto the table without any effort to set it properly. Drinks had to be requested multiple times, and in the end, I gave up waiting for water and fetched it myself from the bar. Food Quality: The food was underwhelming and not reflective of the restaurant’s usual standards. The starters were tiny portions, and the mains, while tasting acceptable, were unappealing in presentation. I ordered a venison burger, which was very dry and came with overcooked potato wedges. For the price, the dish looked pitiful, and the absence of any chicken dishes on the menu seemed odd. Overall Experience: After finishing our mains, plates were left uncleared for over 40 minutes, prompting us to pile them onto an adjacent table ourselves. To add to the disappointment, they had run out of milk, so tea and coffee weren’t even an option. Although we raised our concerns about the poor service and food quality, and the bill was adjusted, it was disheartening to see a place that used to be a firm favourite fall so far in standards. Conclusion: What should have been a celebratory evening turned into a frustrating experience. The combination of slow service, unprofessional staff, and subpar food has left me questioning whether I’ll return. I hope they take these issues seriously and work to bring The Red Barn back to its former glory.

Beautiful barn with with lots space. Great drinks menu. Service however was very slow today. 35 minutes to receive starters made up of bread soup and scotch eggs which were black in parts with eggs hard boiled so overcooked. The roast beef was good. Venison burger overcooked and came with large wedges but no salad or coleslaw? For £19 that's pretty outrageous. Overall it's as expensive as Botley Hilly and The Haycutter but no where near as good food wise. Shame as it's a beautiful venue

I ordered the fried fish and chips. The batter was well overcooked with black bits falling on our plates. I think the oil wasn't clean. The steaks we had were ok

Great place for a Sunday Lunch. Booked a table online, we arrived and service from start to finish was great! Food was very good too and well priced. Will go back!

Was okay. Highlight was seeing one of th waiting staff drop a of pot of horseradish all over one lady sat at a table. Was all over her face n down the front of her dress. Very funny. Otherwise largely forgettable, except perhaps as most underwhelming roast have ever paid money for.

Really lovely food! Great roast dinner :) thank you.

Service was ok. Not given all menu options, had to ask. Some main courses unavailable. Fish and chips was over cooked (almost burnt ). Had to wait 45 minutes for 3 of the desserts. Only about 20 people in restaurant.

Good food, although possibly a bit lacking in options.

Such a great hideaway in the countryside. Well worth a visit👌

We have our annual post Xmas celebration here every year with family who aren’t local to us and this is our midway meeting point . I have to say this year the welcome and service was better than ever . Because there were a lot of us they put us in the private dining area and were attentive throughout. Food was delicious and enjoyed by everyone The menu offers traditional pub grub like burgers and fish and Chips but also offers other tasty options like my cod loin on a spicy layer of beans. Can highly recommend the sticky toffee pudding and brownies too. Log fires warm and welcoming too..

What’s happened to the food? We love (d) the Red Barn, you can’t beat the setting but Saturday was a low. Average service, very slow to get the food and when it arrived 4 of the 5 meals were not good and 1 we just sent back. Too many issues to note from slimy mash that tasted like processed porridge to overcooked fish, but the price point V the really poor quality food don’t match. Having previously even held a party here for over 100 people I am not sure I could eat here again it was that bad.

A wide range of food choices, good quality, good prices.

Very nice venue and meal, excellent service.

Wonderful waitress called Emma who was so attentive and kind

***UPDATED REVIEW*** The last few times we have eaten here, the food has been really disappointing. It saddens me to write this because this was my favourite country pub and recommended to family and friends who went off the back of my recommendation and said the food was terrible. Service really slips when they have events on. Bar staff don’t seem as friendly. :( —————————— The Red Barn is our favourite country pub! Often go for drinks by the open fireplace or slouch on the comfortable sofas. Most pubs these days aren’t cosy and filled with just restaurant seating. The Red Barn has space for everything; Restaurant, bar, cosy seating indoors, undercover outdoor area with heaters, big un-covered grass area with burger van - it’s quite impressive! The staff have always been very friendly and polite. I tried food for the first time, it was so flavoursome and good quality, however, the menu didn’t show any gluten free options so the waitress bought over a big folder for us to work out ourselves - found it quite strange as vegan/vegetarian options were labelled. Other than that, can’t fault it. Looking forward to visiting during the summer months out in the garden!

A delicious New Year’s Eve lunch with great service and a lovely atmosphere. All the waiting staff were great and very efficient - a special mention for Jake for being so friendly and polite.

Very small portions eg burger plus 4 large chips Hake portion tiny bite sized Kids burger cremated Not enough staff for busy lunchtime long wait for food customers complaining

We had a family reunion lunch at this pub on Monday 30th. The food was expensive and mediocre. The staff were trying their best but not enough of them and it was too hot to be comfortable. A real pity as it's a beautiful pub.

Thank you Michaela, lovely customer service, great pub!

Great atmosphere , had a very cosy seat by the fire place. We all went for the roast. However a lot of the beef served was not fit for consumption. Very tough and not able to cut let alone chew. No one around to ask to swap and no one checked on us to see if the food was okay. Manager removed it from the bill when we did get to let the staff know however dinner was finished at this point. They might have been unlucky with the cut of beef, but someone could have checked in after serving or at least have someone around, this let down the otherwise really good service throughout. Finally the food was good but not amazing, and overpriced with all things considered. I wouldn’t come here for a roast again, much better out there, but great place for a drink. I would come back to try a different menu to give it another chance and hopefully have a better experience.

Great location, we’ve been many times and it’s never disappointed before. We didn’t get to be seated in the barn which was a shame, and the area we had was a bit lifeless. All 3 of us had the beef roast plus some extra cauliflower cheese - the Yorkshires were overdone, the potatoes a bit anaemic, and there was only minimal veg on the plate. The beef was inedible, really poor quality. The dessert (apple crumble) was excellent. Overall, a disappointing meal, though we will no doubt try again, probably a busy day and bad timing.

This is my favourite pub, we live in Caterham and travel there for dinner at least twice a month. Food is great (although my haddock was over cooked on the last visit), the staff are friendly and place is very clean. Love this pub!

Christmas Day ruined. From the moment we walked in the door today I knew we had made the wrong decision. The table was booked for 3:30 pm, from the moment we turned up staff seem flustered and no one had time to talk to us. 30 minute wait to be seated. The table wasn’t set, no wine glasses. We ordered 3 bottles of wine (one of which was corked) we were given the glasses and no one offered to help pass them out or even pour any of the drinks. The canopies came out, which were stale and hard. Onto the starters, The scallops were in edible and tasteless, and still raw in the centre. I brought up with a manager that they seemed microwaved which he did deny, but the starters had to be sent back. The sorbet turned up late, so to say they were a “Pallet cleanser” 45 minutes after the inedible starter was laughable. By this point, we had still seen no staff other than the flustered, upset looking members putting dishes in front of us. No more drinks orders were taken. It was when the mains came out that the meal became an utter joke. The table behind us clapped when their meals eventually arrived, which was received by a huge impatient laugh by the entire room. The mains are utterly and inedible, there was a mixture of old cold food, some plates were missing elements. There was no pigs in blankets as described on the menu and the roast potatoes were overcooked rocked. The Yorkshire puds were flat, which was the least of our concerns. The entire day was an absolute shambles and utterly disappointing. We all paid over £120 EACH for this, mind you we wait all year for Christmas and trust that the restaurant you have chosen provides a lovely day, this was an utter joke.

First time had Christmas Lunch at a restaurant and was very happy with everything. The staff were very busy but always available and certainly attentive. The Red Barn is an attractive venue with its log fire in the centre of the main barn area but in spite of the number of people there, the noise levels were more than acceptable to us all. Unlikely to be the last time that we enjoy Christmas day with you!

My second visit to the Red Barn in December including Boxing Day, the service and atmosphere lovely but the food rather disappointing. In particular little choice for a vegetarian who does not like plant based food. My fault should have studied the menu in more detail!

I've eaten many good meals at the Red Barn. This was not one of them. In fact it was one of the worst meals I have eaten anywhere! 2 half chickens were ordered and arrived undercooked, the flesh pink and barely warm (certainly not 72°) and were sent back. A portion of mac'n cheese arrived cold and was returned, ditto a side of greens. No catering establishment gets it right all the time, but undercooked chicken is a salmonella hazard and suggests a lack of care and supervision in the kitchen. The bill arrived still showing one half chicken and at my insistence this was removed together with the discretionary service charge. I should add that 2 of the party are professional chefs and at least one other table expressed dissatisfaction to their 'server'. To make matters worse, it was my 80th birthday celebration. Kevin Delaney

We were a party of 17 and had pre ordered. Whilst the food was good the service was very slow which was disappointing

Greeting was poor, you could tell no one wanted to be there as it was Boxing Day. Menu was limited was told there was no pie as we were about to order. The half chickens were raw and not hot, was told they were cooked fresh but you could tell they were re-heated. Mac and cheese was cold too. Really spoiled the meal, have been many times and always been good but unfortunately won’t be returning anymore.

Disaster of a Christmas meal, every dish awful and took over 3 hours and didn’t even get the last 2 courses. Was a huge queue of people lining up to complain. Disgraceful Xmas showing

Had our Christmas Dinner here - loved the food and atmosphere. Thank you for a lovely day!

It saddens me to say that what used to be my favourite restaurant has really gone downhill and I doubt I will be going there again.

Sadly our second visit was disappointing. The food was not as good as the first time. My husbands steak was not medium rare as requested the meat dripped with blood, the chips were not crispy and many gray bits. My chicken pie was overcooked and somehow burnt inside the crust!. The last visit the food was exquisite 👌. We even sent our compliments to the chef. Sadly this time the standard was not as good. As for the atmosphere , we were there on a Saturday and a large family with very unruly children and adults made our experience stressful. The foul language was managed very well by the staff who were lovely. We could not fault them at all. If we go again we will not go of a weekend. We cut our evening short. The staff did offer compensation for the food but we declined and left early.

Food good, service good , be careful with Wine menu. We were charged £75 for a bottle of wine that retails at £16 !!! Not on their main wine list but the reserve and this was not pointed out. Manager unhelpful !

The barn restaurant looked so beautiful, decorated for Xmas with a lovely fire going too. Sadly the food was not up to the same standard. One of us ordered steak which was served up lukewarm on a cold plate and the chosen sauce had obviously been refrigerated so did not melt onto the steak thus making it even colder. The food presentation as poor, no garnish and all very plain. The service was friendly enough but lacking in training, ie no napkins offered & we had to ask for condiments & steak knife. No ice in drinks. Desert was awful, apple crumble all watery and not hot, ice cream on top which didn’t melt as it wasn’t warm enough. Tasteless. We asked for custard and were told everyone asks for it but they don’t have it. If everyone asks for it surely you should get some in to be able to offer what customers want?? Shame as the place looked so lovely but we won’t be returning.

Lovely Sunday lunch, ordered the pork belly.Very tasty . Prompt, friendly service. Great atmosphere. Will definitely return.

Unfortunately the food was average. One dish came out with half the ingredients missing. One dish the lettuce was limp and not crispy which it should be in a Caesar salad. They had run out of garlic butter at this was at a lunchtime sitting so clearly hadn’t prepped enough. Good took a long time to come out of the kitchen too. They only cleared half our plates from the table and then got distracted. We got fed up looking at our plates so we moved them to a spare table. We asked for the dessert menu twice it still did not come. So we asked for the bill. This came but then they did not come back to let us pay so I had to go up to the bar to pay. When you are spending between £200-£300 on a meal for a family you do not expect the above. Extremely disappointed. They definitely need to up their game in the kitchen and at front of house. Such a shame as has huge potential. Unfortunately it’s a very large venue and they can’t keep up.

Had my son's 18th birthday meal with friends in the Barn. Fantastic night, I can't believe we haven't been here before. Very tasty food and tastefully decorated for Christmas. Would highly recommend the Red Barn to everyone. The staff were lovely too.

We had our engagement party there and it was amazing, the location is fantastic, that food was great and the staff awesome and really helped make the evening, I would 100% recommend it to everyone.

Disorganised, poor quality food and service is average. First and last time here.

It was a busy evening with a Christmas faire in the grounds. The restaurant was busy but there is space both between the tables and at the tables. Food was excellent.

Prices are a bit spenny but love the food (especially fish and chips so good), espresso martini is my go to and staff are lovely! Love the bingo on the first wednesday of each month! UPDATE- came back recently and the sizes have been shrunk massively, what once was a big bit of fish is now half the size, the children’s portions are TINY, one sausage with the sausage meal and the burger is like a appetiser, wouldn’t even fill up a child. Not sure what’s happened but bit disappointed.

Such a great venue with a varied choice of areas to sit. It’s more a gastro Pub. Good food and well presented and the staff are super friendly. This Christmas they have pushed the boat out with decorations and lights. Well done team!

Friendly Staff .. gorgeous setting, lovely food though a bit short on vegetarian options

Really nice pub with good food. The service is friendly and the vibe inside is really nice with other pub goers seeming super friendly and chill. Lots of seating and tables. The food was good. Baked Camembert starter was delicious. The fish I had was really nice too with good flavours however it was just slightly overcooked for me (it wasn’t super overcooked or anything but it has been cooked a tiny bit longer than that just cooked point).the sauce the fish was in was also a little bit too salty for me. The pie and mash was really nice too.

Lovely pub, great service and the best Espresso Martini! Thanks guys

Super slow service, lovely environment, food ok. We got married here last year (it was amazing, highly recommend) and they offered us a complementary anniversary meal at the time. We were so looking forward to coming back, and was so lovely to be in the barn again, enjoying it decked out for Christmas. Starter was delicious but took 50 mins to come. Roasts should have been out soon after, had to wait another 30 mins. They were ok-let down by roast potatoes and lack of gravy. Then made the mistake of ordering an apple crumble which took another 20 mins, was both undercooked, cold and tasted burnt. Nearly 3 hours later for 2 of us, I couldn’t be bothered to argue about the bill - they took our drinks off and the (awful) pudding but refused to honour the complimentary meal, despite me putting on reservation notes. Would not have minded too much if it had been a better experience but might make a different anniversary tradition!

It was a lovely venue but the service was incredibly slow. Drinks took at least 20 minutes with chasing - table wasn’t cleared and no one came up and asked if we wanted anything else- coffee and teas took ages and asked for the bill, then had to go and find a waiter to make payment so not hugely impressed.

Such a shame, I’ve been coming here for years - didn’t get round to ordering because despite waiting the 4 staff members were just milling around and couldn’t get served so had to leave.

Poor quality food ,and to run out of items on the menu at 3 o'clock on a Sunday, and still have to pay a fixed service charge of 30 pounds will not be booking again

Excellent atmosphere, food and drinks. Highly recommended

I've never been to a more frustrating place. Frustrating because the pub has got so much potential, but in reality it's below average by quite some margin. The building, gardens, interior design and ambience are top notch – possibly the prettiest pub I've ever been to – so I was expecting good things from the food and service when I walked in. It's just a massive shame this turned out to not be the case. I asked for a Guinness, but they'd run out. I then tried to order mushrooms for a starter, but they'd run out. And I asked for the venison pie, but they'd run out. The starters and mains for the whole table were a let down – not poorly cooked, just bland with very little flavour. The staff were friendly, but service was slow, disorganised and patchy. I won't be going back to The Red Barn unfortunately, because of the food, which is a real shame as I wanted to fall in love with it.

Such a nice looking place, but unfortunately we had to leave after 1h of waiting for food. We also had to look for a waitress to order food. We watched everyone else around us being served. Very disappointed and hungry!

The service was terrible, they served us toast and butter instead of sour dough bread and garlic butter, they just served it up thinking we wouldn’t notice . The waitress took my wine glass away still with wine in it , she returned with it filled up , when I asked where the rest of my wine was she just didn’t understand what I was saying . The main course was over cooked . When we asked for floater coffees , they returned about 15 minutes later saying they couldn’t make them as they had no cream . The whole experience wasn’t good and the staff didn’t seem to care . It wasn’t as if they even busy as they weren’t . I would say to anyone steer clear of the red barn . To say I will not ever be returning again .

Roast beef when served beef cold and mash ,sweet potato cabbage ,carrot all cold asked for this to be changed which they did but vegetables still cold except roast potatoes ,very disappointed will not spend our money here again

I have been visiting The Red Barn for years and the building and outside space never fail to impress. Sadly, that's as good as it gets for me. Being a Coeliac (gluten free), my eating out is guided by what is available on the menu. Not having been since the end of December 2023, I was very disappointed to see fewer gluten free options available. Four of us had lunch. I had the gammon, egg and chips. The chunky chips were greasy, the gammon was dreadful. A large knobbly lump of pure fat with a slice of over salty gammon. Another of our party had haddock and chips. The haddock was over cooked with the batter a very dark brown, almost burnt, again greasy chips and the peas were not mushy, just very yellow. I complained about my gammon and was told I could have a free dessert. With the exeption of ice cream or cheese with a slice of gluten free bread, there were no gluten free options. I'm not sure if there is new management or it's been taken over, but the quality of food was very poor. Previously there have been a lot of choices for gluten free. They ran out of soda, lemonade and sugar. Some of the staff were great, the others miserable and barely polite. Prices have always been on the high side but if quality and service are good I can live with that. Unless some serious changes take place, I can't see a good reason to return. Very disappointed.

Restaurant Review: I had high hopes for this place, but unfortunately, our experience was disappointing. Despite having a reservation, we still waited about 30 minutes for a table. Once seated, service continued to be sluggish; it took a long time just to get our drinks, and we waited over an hour for our food. When it was finally time to order, we discovered they were out of half the menu items — something they didn’t mention until we were ready to order, which made things even more frustrating. When the food finally arrived, it was swimming in a thin, watery gravy. I’m a big fan of gravy, but not when it’s this diluted; it would have been much better served on the side. Overall, the experience left a lot to be desired. I wouldn’t rush back here, unfortunately.

at the top! very British setting and atmosphere!

This is a very mixed review. The location and setting are absolutely beautiful and I would love to come back and use the outdoor area. On this occassion however we were a little disappointed. We had pre-booked but the main dining room was full when we arrived so we were taken to sit in the Orangery which was nice but didn't have the same atmosphere and felt a bit tucked away which ended up being a real disadvantage. We knew what we wanted so ordered out meal at the same time as our drinks. 35 minutes later we still didn't have our drinks and had to chase them. After 45 minutes we received our meals and the food was absolutely wonderful, no complaints about that other than how long we had waited. Unfortunately we then had to go and find staff to ask for our plates to be removed and get the desert menu after another long wait. We decided just to get the bill and leave at that point. Looking around, I'd say either they had taken more bookings than they could manage or had left themselves short staffed.

We visited for a Sunday roast. We had booked but turned up two hours early and the staff very kindly accommodated us. We both had the trio roast and the food was all beautiful, all three of the meats were cooked to perfection and very tasty. We also had the mushroom brioche for a starter and the chocolate brownie and sticky toffee pudding for dessert. All very tasty although it would be nice if it was a genuine sticky toffee pudding, this was more of a toffee cake with butterscotch sauce. The service did let the experience down slightly. Staff were slow to take our orders, offer us dessert menus, check if we needed more drinks etc. Though, once we did order the food came quickly. The whole experience took 3hrs. Despite the speed, the staff were very friendly and the atmosphere was overall good. Luckily we weren’t in a mega rush.

Atmosphere is good here with still enough space and boltholes to have privacy. Open fires, parking, outdoor spaces and an annual Fireworks night tick all the boxes.

The most expensive glass of wine I've ever bought! Lovely surroundings thou.

I recommend a visit!! a very welcoming place!! the Sunday Roast is very good!!

Sunday lunch. Potatoes were cold but overall a lovely setting and attentive staff. Well worth a visit.

A beautiful spot for a drink or a catch up or a meal to impress would recommend

Been coming here for 20 years.......yesterday was a low point for my Mum's birthday. 7 of us, 6 had roasts that had clearly been reheated. Hard potatoes, tough meat, they'd run out of sauces, very reactive service. Maybe new management or staff issues? We'll find somewhere else.

The atmosphere and environment was stunning, warm and welcoming. The staff were friendly and helpful. However the food was just ok! disappointed giving the amazing environment.

Always have a great meal here, and attentive service

Went here for the first time on a lovely sunny day with my brother and sat outside. Absolutely beautiful venue with gorgeous surrounding countryside in Surrey. The service was good and the menu was quite extensive. I chose the roast which turned out to be disappointing…it looked amazing with a giant Yorkshire pudding but I got three ultra thin slithers of each type of meat (all of which was actually quite tasteless) served with literally a spoonful of gravy so essentially a dry roast. My brother enjoyed his choice so next time I won’t be choosing the roast.

Food is great, better than your average pub next level. Great staff. Fantastic location.

Four of us there for a special occasion, spectacular main room, fire lit, wonderful atmosphere, excellent food, excellent service.

Lovely setting. We sat outside, excellent location. Vegan food options are limited, but we chose the houmous sharing platter, which was extremely tasty.

Roasr beef lunch. The plate was cold and so was the meat, and the vegetables. Only the roast potatoes were warm/hot. Dry yorkshire pudding. They promised crispy roast potatoes on the menu. They weren't. Staff did not ask us how the meal was. Overpromised and underdelivered. Very disappointing.

Somewhere I’d wanted to visit for a while and sadly, it was a bit disappointing. Despite booking well in advance, there wasn’t a table for us when we arrived, which was a sign of the service to come. The food overall was good, however the service was atrocious. We were left without service for most of our visit, leaving us to have to chase staff so that we could order drinks etc. Worse though, was the inability to clear the table, when deserts arrived, our main plates etc still hadn’t been cleared. We then received a bill that included a £30 service charge…when we requested this was removed, we were met with a huff and a 10 minute delay for a replacement bill.

Absolutely love it here! Quiet in the day, so it’s great for getting work done or reading. Very cosy and warm atmosphere too
