The Seahorse in Guildford

Food and service were excellent

Cold cold cold. Such a pity. This could be a great foodie pub but it's cold and uninviting. Will not be back

A fabulous birthday lunch. Everyone’s dish was really tasty. Wonderful service from Kevin. Highly recommend a trip.

The Seahorse in Shalford is usually a reliable place for quick business lunch. The fish and chips last Wednesday was way off the usual standard - overcooked fish and soggy inedible batter. Nice serving staff and ambiance though, and it is usually better than this so I'll try again.

David the General Manager made us feel very welcome. Great live music. Great pub

Our bartender who I believe was called David was such a gent and delivered great service the whole night!!!! Lovely food and drink

All five stars, Josh was amazing host for us. Food unbelievable. Trio of deserts and seabass amazing We’ll be back

We had a lovely time at the seahorse! Super friendly staff and delicious meal. Callum was extra helpful and attentive for everything we needed. Overall great evening

Very welcoming, and good service.

Served a burger that I wouldn’t feed to my dog. If you can’t do that right I won’t be trying anything else on the menu. Overpriced and just another chain masquerading as a “gastro pub” I was refunded and the staff were nice enough. Don’t waste your money on their food

Great atmosphere, great food and great people there especially Callum who served us. Would 10/10 recommend.

Shame you have put the prices up so much, but the atmosphere and staff are great.

World class food by chef Christian who cooks the best steaks in Guildford.

We had lunch as a large extended family group. The service was excellent and could not have been better. All of the food was delicious and well presented, apart from one main dish that was not great. However, when we informed the staff member who served us, they immediately offered to replace it or give us a free dessert, in the end the cost of the meal was removed from our bill. Overall the dining experience was wonderful, the food was tasty and well presented and the staff were great. We will definitely return and I would definitely recommend The Seahorse.

Garden abit run down but lovely staff

Been going here for over 15 years and have previously given 5 stars. However, today was a poor experience. 5pm on a Saturday, there are only about 7 tables, however, a number of tables not cleared or cleaned. Took 30mins from ordering to getting food. Had to chase the children's food. When the food arrived, no cutlery so had to go back and ask for that. No salt and pepper or offer of mayo etc. Children's sausage was burnt, mushroom risotto had peas in it which wasn't advertised. Unfortunately it just felt like no one really cared. Even when mentioning to someone we hadnt got any cutlery, the response was 'someone else is getting that'

We used to come here a lot with our kids and always found the food great and the staff friendly but the last few times we have been disappointed - our kids were given one small sausage for the kids meals and when we questioned this being a bit unfair the waitress said she would find out if this was standard and then never came back -

Best food and best service in Guildford! Loved the atmosphere! The waitress Leti was very helpful and sweet. We will come back!

We had Sunday lunch roast and it was delicious. The waitress Leti was great and took good care of us. We reccommend!

Food was great, atmosphere was very enjoyable and the staff were all very helpful and welcoming. We were being looked after by Leti who was lovely. I recommend trying out their new menu!

We came last Saturday and had an amazing time. The service was very good, our waitress Leti took very good care of us, and we really enjoyed the food. Definitely recommend:)

I had a great evening at the seahorse, the waitress Leti was lovely and very helpful. I really recommend. Will be coming back again!

Lovely pub, nice roast dinner and decent size car park!

Our last two visits have been big disappointments. Both times we have waited over an hour for our main courses - and most recently that was crazy. We arrived at about 5pm, ,there were only two tables occupied including our own. A table of 4, and our table of 5. But it was 6:45pm before our mains arrived. The food is great - but that kind of service is simply unacceptable. And we weren't offered _any_ discount this time - so I guess we won't go back. A shame really - because it was previously a favorite of ours.

Caroline was excellent - very friendly and knowledgeable. Food was exactly as expected for this area and price but when we said we had a theatre booked they pulled it out quickly. Will be back for a drink, we are sure!

Love the Seahorse, great food and kid friendly.

Absolutely amazing place to visit, friendly and inviting well managed pub, with great food - outstanding 5 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

A regular for us and always exceptional. Food is delicious, service fantastic. A great cosy pub! Dog friendly ☺️

Wow, what an awesome pub! Delicious food and really friendly staff. I would recommend the steak! We’ll definitely be back!

My husband and I had a wonderful meal here, great service and a lovely afternoon.

Love this place- they have the best staff and food is always fab!

Love this pub has a real family friendly vibe when we went during the day. Food was lovely too and lots of choice.

Great food with excellent delivery.

My parents and I went there early Sunday evening and had the worst meal and service. The young barman showed us to a table in the side room as we had a dog. From the start he was abrupt in his manner. There was nothing left on the menu so very little to choose from. The starters were ok and the wine was good. The mains were awful. The chips and the burger were completely cold. We waited but no one came so I went up to the bar and they sent out more which were only warm. I’ve had better burgers from a burger van/ and they weren’t £16 !! The bill came and they were mildly apologetic. They had taken the chips off the bill . It was an incredibly disappointing evening

such a lovely pub, the cocktails were great and had such a wonderful lunch! service was so good, this will be my new local!!

Thank you Leti for looking after us tonight! Will be back!

Although a lovely spacious restaurant, we ordered lunch and it was not well cooked (meat), the salad very mushy and a very strange taste to the fish. Also hairs in the meal! For the price we paid and no discount for the bad meal we certainly won't be eating here again!

The service on a Saturday night was great, very friendly staff and the food was amazing. We had the chicken and scallops to start with a steak for our main. Will be back!

The Mac and cheese tasted better out of a can at home.

Staff are friendly, lovely decor and food was great , fantastic outdoor area

I came to the Seahorse with my family on our trip to Guildford. The food was astounding as well as the service. My steak dinner paired with Archie's service made my night. 10/10 definitely will be recommending to my friends.

Fantastic pub, lovely atmosphere. Delicious food. Our waiter Archie gave us amazing food recommendations and the cauliflower cheese was sooo good. The cocktails were amazing! Highoy recommend!

Friendly staff and reasonable service. But very put off by strong, overwhelming and continuous smell of cheap air freshener throughout the whole place. And I’d be cautious if you think you are going to a gourmet pub!

Fantastic Sunday roast. Lovely meat and trimmings. The restaurant has a good ambience, friendly staff, lovely food and nice wine! We were greeted immediately and taken to our table, served by a very attentive waiter, Archie, who provided service with a smile and some great menu recommendations. Highly recommend the sticky toffee pudding for desert! We are very excited to return soon!

Lovely pub, friendly atmosphere and great service from our host, Archie. Food was excellent - especially crispy duck noodle salad :)

Fantastic restaurant and fantastic staff Archie was sooo attentive and so welcoming! He made sure all the food was correctly catered for my milk and egg allergy! Delicious roast pork!

Good and varied menu, our waiter Archie was very attentive

10/10 food, atmosphere and service. Lovely little spot, had a great anniversary dinner with excellent above and beyond service from our waiter Archie, really made the occasion special.

Very nice pub but make sure you are coming here to eat since they seem to lack table space inside. If you are drinking and not eating you have to sit outside or in the bar area even if there is no one to be seen in the pub. Other than that the outside space was nice and had a nice atmosphere.

Had a lovely evening meal.Will certainly go again.

The staff ensure you have a quality and fitting experience whether as a family or a couple. Excellent service and food

We came for a meal here and Leti.who served us,was so helpful and efficient. Thankyou Leti we’ll be back 😊

Great food and great atmosphere. Josh took care of myself and my partner and his service really topped off the evening

My son booked a table on The Sunday evening on August Bank holiday. Most of the menu was unavailable so there was very limited choice with only chicken available (without the stuffing) for the Sunday roasts. Apart from fish & chips there were no fish dishes available. The actual service was good but the food was just OK. The one thing that the restaurant needs to address is the state of the paintwork, particularly on the entrance doors, doors to toilets etc.

Lovely meal for the first time here. Service was excellent, our server was very attentive and friendly. I don’t have a name but I know she is blonde and a Scorpio lol 😂 Food was great, the squid was beautifully cooked and the gochujang sauce that accompanied it was delicious. My main of lamb rump was cooked to my request, mash was yummy but I wasn’t expecting the grilled veg to be Mediterranean. Menu says grilled veg so I was expecting vegetables that paired with the lamb and red wine sauce more than Mediterranean veges, however they were still tasty and I ate it all! My friend’s pie was great but needs a gravy. Quite dry in our opinion but tasteful nonetheless. Crème brûlée was out of this world. Creamy… slight notes of white chocolate which wasn’t overpowering and the raspberry really balanced out the dish. The brûlée was perfect - just enough for a good crack but not too much that it over sweetens the dessert. One criticism though would be that we were left disappointed at the “rustic bread” to begin our meal with. We expected rustic bread… but was served 4 slices of toast. I imagine rustic bread to be a selection of bread with a nice rustic crust and fluffy dough on the inside that we could break and dip into the dips. Thin dry toast is what was served and it was a disappointment. Something I’d have for breakfast. Hopefully this feedback can inspire some real rustic bread to be brought to the table instead! All in all, we had a lovely meal so thank you!

We had amazing service from a lovely young lady called Orchid. Orchid could not have done any more for us if she tried - she really made our night. She was courteous, attentive, friendly and the service she provided was perfect. The food was also really nice and it came out promptly. The decor is really impressive, we had fresh flowers behind us and a lovely oil burner on the table. The menu had a wide variety of choice and the wine list was also very good. We will definitely be back. It was nice to have such a great experience.

Lovely and plentiful food, great service from Archie 🔥 🔥 💯 , nice outdoor seating and ambience.

Great service from our waiter Archie. Amazing food, friendly service and a great beer garden.

Great new menu with good choice of food. Excellent service from Archie.

Wonderful food , setting and location. We had a young chap Archie who looked after us. Archie was exceptional and when above and beyond for us.Great place first class staff.

Archie was attentive and friendly and we had a lovely evening meal on a Friday night. The food was fab and would come back again! Thanks Archie!

Great food and fantastic service! Thanks Becky!

Wonderful food and outstanding hospitality! Spent a lovely summers evening here. Would give more than 5* if we could. Becky and Phil are a credit to the team.

Fantastic Peroni, especially with a small top. Phil and Becky’s service was top notch

Whoops, my original review was a pocket review. Actually experience was very good... Sorry.for the initial confusion

I’ve been here a few times with my partner and loved it! The most recent time, I had to experience it as a gluten free person as I have learnt I am intolerant and while I didn’t have many options, The staff were more than happy to accommodate and I still loved the food I did have! I recommend the sides for starters as there aren’t many/any gf starters. Truffle chips and duck salad were great!

Great meal, Becky was fab! Will return 🙌

Lovely garden, good food. Vegan burger came with salad- no chips??? Why not both? Lovely staff who came to rescue after burger skewer accidental stab!!!

Great food Friendly host and waitress and very quick and efficient. Well worth the visit

Carl was a great waiter, really friendly & approachable, dealing with 3 immature mature ladies. Roast was lovely & will be back

We visited this pub for Sunday lunch as a party of four, and we couldn't have been more pleased with our experience. The service was excellent—friendly, attentive, and made us feel very welcome. Two of us enjoyed the roast beef, which was not only flavorful but also served in generous portions. Another had the vegetarian option, which was equally well-received. As for me, I started with the White Crab on sourdough, and it was simply delightful. My main course of King Prawns, Crab & Chorizo was absolutely delicious—bursting with flavor and a perfect touch of spiciness. I enjoyed it so much that I wiped the plate clean! Overall, it was a fantastic meal in a lovely setting, and we will definitely be returning.

Really enjoyable meal at the Seahorse. Service was good and we didn’t feel rushed. Josh looked after us for the evening and checked back on us regularly. Chicken and cheese pie was great and the fillet steak was tender and cooked perfectly and the peppercorns sauce was fab. Definitely be visiting again soon.

Visited for dinner and had very good food, very friendly service from Josh, a nice atmosphere and would very much would recommend.

Lovely service and great food! Very warm and homely feel. Radek & Megan was very welcoming and helpful! Service was quick, priced well

Lovely experience here. Josh helped a lot and was very accommodating. Much recommended.

We came here a few weeks ago and were very impressed by both the service of Josh and the rest of the staff, along with the food, which was fantastic. Will definitely be returning!

I had a splendid dinner this evening at the seahorse. I must say, the delicacies served were second to none, with consistent ambiance and gravitas when it came to the complex makeup of flavours. I devoured my meal in mere seconds. The service from Josh was exquisite, never leaving us lost or waiting once. I highly recommend. The barman also had a great name, haha. Will be returning soon.

Not a bad place to enjoy the nice weather.

Becky the best bar tender. Guinness poured to perfection and the best personality. Caroline is happy to deliver all the foods and keep us entertained. If you like food, liquor and fun. You’ll like it here

My favoured pub and also favourite waitress Becky ❤️🥰
