The Victoria Pub in Runnymede

Very good gastropub; can be difficult to hold a dinner conversation when busy inside. Lovely outside seating and ease of parking.

Had a meal at The Victoria with a colleague I was NOT IMPRESSED. Looking at the One and Two star reviews I fully understand what the customers are commenting on. The Obvious lack of interest by the management in NOT answering the complaints speaks volumes . It's a PUB that thinks it's a Top Restaurant with it's crazy prices . It's just Basic Foods dressed up to be something that it is NOT. Now even offering 30% OFF on certain days it would not make me want to enter the premises again. Let's face it A Pub Burger in a roll is a Pub Burger in a roll you shouldn't have to re mortgage your house or have a bank loan to have one. Just another overpriced slap dash eatery and there are many in the area. I AWAIT A RESPONSE FROM THE MANAGEMENT IF THEY DEEM TO REPLY. A YEAR LATER and STILL WAITING

Very good place, different environments, different eating options. I would love if they added more variety in terms of drinks because I found few types of beer. Good staff, good atmosphere.

Fantastic food great service we went for my dad's 90th birthday and we all enjoyed it

Very happy with our local pub. Always a friendly service, quick and professional, very tasty food, quite surprising for the pub, I brought here many of my friends and family. Keep it up guys!! We do our best to support this local business.

Really enjoyed our Sunday roast here a couple of weeks ago. Service was good from our waiter Tom and the food was delicious! Soft and tender roast beef, tasty starters and a wonderful apple and blackberry crumble with custard which was exceptional. There’s loads of parking and a great specials board (not available on Sundays) that we’d love to come back and try next time. It’s not the cheapest Sunday roast you’ll find, but it’s great quality so we were happy with the overall price. Would recommend and hope to visit again soon.

Nice food menu and a good beer selection, I'll be back for another steak baguette.

Had superb sea bass today and service is great and portions are very nice too. All in all : 5/5. Highly recommended

Overall a very good evening. Family of 10 and the food was good. Service also good. Good atmosphere and busy kinda buzz for a Thursday.

We had a very nice lunch which was well presented with efficient and friendly service. It was very busy on a Tuesday lunchtime so it was worth booking in advance.

Great pub . First visit with friends. Very busy for Sunday lunch, however this did not affect the great service and superb food. Will be back 🍻👍

Perfect meeting place. The truffle oil smelled amazing. Will be back to sample the menu

Great service. Food very good. Staff extremely helpful. Dog friendly as well. Recommended.

Nice pub with plenty of outside seating and space

Really nice pub, well catered and good selection of drinks on offer. It is massive and I think would be really buzzing when full. No fault of the pub but at 12 on a Sunday I think it was just gearing up! Roast was great!

Recently had the festive menu and the turkey choice was not great. Returned today and chose the Sea Bass… really lovely! Thank you

Since this pub was refurbished it has become a local gem! Christina is certainly a wonderful asset - always gives a friendly welcome, matched with a beaming smile and pleasant chat... Food, service and surroundings are all fantastic, plus the garden is great during the summer months - particularly as they're dog friendly! 🐶🐾 Well Done The Victoria, keep it up... 👌👏

Good food & helpful staff. Popular place for a Monday lunchtime.

Quick bite and drink before a meeting. Efficient service, buzzing atmosphere. Will come again!

New favourite. The mezze is as good as it gets 🤤

Had a burger and it was way below par and had a mezzanine to-share it was drab at best. The ladies who servers us very polite and friendly and prompt. Ordered a rhubarb crumble it ok could of done with more custard.

Excellent meal with attentive and charming staff.

Good pub... Will go back for some food next time

I have been to this pub numerous times prior and never had a problem, as a result I thought it would be a good idea to book a Sunday roast for my mum's birthday. What a mistake! The food was great, but the service was poor at best. Waited 1hr and half to recieve our mains, even after asking the staff for updates on the food. People were arriving after us and leaving before we had even been served. Gutted given this is within walking distance to us and was our "go to place". Will be taking our custom to other places in future.

Good service, good food, nice atmosphere

Really excellent fish and chips tonight

Lovely, well appointed pub with real ale and great menu.

Pleasant atmosphere, service good and food well presented.

Absolutely fabulous food and friendly service. Only spoilt by the loud hooray Henry at the next table but that's not the fault of the pub. Best chios I've eaten in ages!

저녁 늦게 오픈이 되어 있어요. 오다 가다 보았는데 분위기 좋아요

We had a fantastic, tasty, memorable Sunday lunch, and will recommend the service and food quality. Definitely now on our list of best.

I’ll start by saying that the staff are all lovely and friendly. The manager, in particular, is always very smiley and welcoming. The food is ok at best but the service is usually pretty fast. I’d recommend booking at weekends as it’s often busy inside and out if the weather is good. The atmosphere is what let’s this place down. It feels a little dead inside and is often filled with entitled, obnoxious people. I know they can’t do much about the type of people that visit but it is a shame.

Had a Sunday roast dinner on the 23rd July 2023 the amount of vegetables I got was dreadful 1 carrot a few strands of cabbage 1 parsnip not even been roasted and 3 very small roasted potatoes which weren’t even roasted I would not recommend eating there

What a waste of money! Food below average, personnel with an attitude and lack of professionalism. Do yourself a favour and avoid this place.

Lovely garden with plenty of tables and space. Friendly staff and good food.

Great food, nice beer and good service

Food was only average at best for the price and the service whilst friendly was lacking in knowledge and professionalism. Some of the staff were smoking and joking about in full view of the customers dinning in the garden, not very encouraging.

Great atmosphere and even better food, highly recommend

Over all a good pub restaurant. Service was very good.

Excellent outside space . Service friendly . Pretty stop after a walk along the canal

Good food, service was excellent.

Had very tasty burgers in the garden. Very relaxing in the shade of their big umbrellas.

The service was very friendly but totally inept. Missed all our order and delivered in wrong order. Forgot the olives. Wrong order for my wife’s 2 starters . After reminder about the wine gotvwrong wine and wrong amount. When wanted a top up of wine nobody around to take order. Found the two waitresses chatting by the bar and not walking around to check on customers. Lovely setting but missing the essentials. Keith S

lovely revamped pub. good chips and gravy

Great first impression. Unfortunately technical problems, meal wasn't possible. Will be back because they deserve second chance.

First time been since no people good food and service 👍

Went for a Sunday roast.... There were plenty of tables, but we were put on a table for four when there were two of us. We asked to move to a small table for two, which seemed to cause them problems?! The beef was nice, but the Yorkshire was dry and crispy, vegetables were limited - there was a small amount of Savoy cabbage, one half of one thin carrot and one half of a small parsnip and three roast potatoes. We asked for more veg and it was given to us, but it was a real disappointment to have to ask. We were told that they had been busy and they were trying to make the food "stretch". We had booked. I was still hungry so Isuccumbed to the sticky toffee pudding which was good - the small scoop of ice cream could have been more generous though. We won't be returning which is a shame as it is walking distance from where we live.

Local agradável, uma área externa espaçosa para curtir um lindo dia de sol bebendo e comendo.

Excellent service food great. Going again Sunday

Great food but it was a little busy

I feel we do not visit this pub enough. The food is great, dont go if your not hungry, the portion size is large. We enjoy every time we visit

Lovely clean pub, nice seating areas. Food was lovely I had a vegetarian dish other had things like fish, steak so on was all very nice

The first time I have been here. Service at the Bar and elsewhere was good, and it was packed. Good to see!

Good food, good vibes service was excellent

The Victoria is friendly and welcoming with attentive staff and excellent food. Most pubs in this and surrounding areas require a booking for Sundays otherwise there's a long wait. We arrived without a reservation, late afternoon on a very busy Sunday after being turned away by 3 other less busy pubs nearby. The Victoria was happy to make a plan to accommodate us and, despite being full, with a continual stream of people coming in, provided attentive service without a long waiting time before our meals arrived. The roasts and burgers we ordered were excellent.

Excellent food and service by courteous staff.

Decent food and ambience delivered reliably.

Turned up on speck at lunchtime, and friendly staff showed us to our table. Ordered drinks and food which unfortunately though very good, took ages to arrive. Would recommend if you are not in a rush.

Friendly staff good food. Hake was delicious

Lovely staff, lovely weather, lovely 🍺🍺🍺🍺

Lovely food. Friendly atmosphere. Helpful staff

Friendly staff. Very good food and tasty drinks..

The Victoria has a very pleasant atmosphere, good parking and the staff were very nice. We were a party of 16 and they were very friendly. We had ordered in advance and it did still take quite a while for food to come - presumably so we could all order drinks - but I was quite hungry by the time we got food. Mine wasn't piping hot (especially the chips) and it took them a long time to sort out sauces, but they did a good job with food allergies / intolerances which is really important! It's a gastropub, so if you're looking for regular pub food you'll struggle here; it's fish and chips or a burger, or something more fancy. Likewise with the puddings, I felt everything had been made unnecessarily fussy. I thought the puddings were a bit overpriced too (over £7 each). I imagine for a smaller group things would have been much quicker so perhaps the niggles I experienced wouldn't have been a bother, and as the staff were so nice if you like the look of the menu then go for it. If you're not into gastropub, fancy food then seek an alternative because you will struggle to find traditional pub grub here (in fact, it's becoming increasingly difficult in this part of the world!).

SUNDAY LUNCH at 4 o'clock, well we should have booked sooner! But worth the wait.

Very warm welcome by front of house and seated swiftly. Drinks soon followed and then our lunch. Very polite and friendly staff, amazing food and great beer selection. I had the pan fried sea bass and my lady had the pork tomahawk, both cooked to perfection. They also cater for vegans as well as allergic patrons.

Great place, great food and very kids friendly as well.

Excellent service, gluten free option available which is great 👍

the pub has had an major update, lovely place to pick a meal.

Very friendly place with a great pint of Guinness and a well cooked menu. This continues to be a fab place and they really do well in hiring awesome staff. The hake I had today was perfect. They seem to have a genuine care about doing a great job for their customers.

Excellent family meal on Sunday, friendly happy staff, food very good, service a little slow but considering there were 12 of us and the place was packed every table occupied not too much of an issue. Only other issue could do with a little more heating. Highly recommend.

Very good food, nice and friendly atmosphere . Please, it's very clean and well decorated.

I had a meal with 6 friends today. I found the service extremely slow (over an hour to get our food) and we ordered creme brulee _ this took forever to come _ we joked that it was being made. well it came completely runny and not once did anyone ask if all was OK. I will not be rushing to recommend you.

Lovely long Sunday lunch, can take the dogs in too which is a real plus! Friendly staff, yummy beige food...yup, will go again!

Great pub offering really good food and decent selection (although a bit repetitive) of beers. Manages to be a nice neighbourhood place for an impromptu pint in the garden or inside by the fire, and at the same time is a destination gastro pub for people coming from further afield. Plenty of good, friendly staff too, making a nice change from the norm nowadays!

The pub has been refurbished recently and it has been upgraded beautifully. Good food and great service.

Good service and good quality food. Excellent.

Very pleasantly surprised. Good beer, lovely staff, tasty food and dog friendly. Will return.

Probably the best pub in the neighbourhood, nice vibe and friendly staff.

For a while they had amazing vegan options like vish n chips. But the best items have gone and we're left with boring ones like chick pea curry. And the menu is confusing e.g. vegan nut roast served with duck fat roast potatoes (obviously not vegan).

Had a great birthday celebration tonight. The food was good but the service was excellent. Our waitress was so accomplished, helpful and efficient. Nothing was too much trouble. Will definitely be going back! Sorry for the lack of photos but it is my birthday so photos are only of my family so nothing really of the restaurant!

really nice local pub with good food and friendly staff. It has a big garden with plenty of parking. They do hire for private events but get your bookings in early to save disappointment.

Good pub decent food reasonably priced would recommend.

Absolutely excellent service, ambience and lovely surroundings. Menu so much to choose from really delicious. Had a lovely evening. Highly recommended.

Really nice place. Food was enjoyable.

Great, attentive service from a friendly team. Clean throughout the pub and the beer is good too. The food is well done although perhaps a little pricey? I had the cheese platter as a desert- £10 for two pieces of cheese, a few crackers and relish? All in all though a good, well run local pub.

I loved this pub , really cool atmosphere and an excellent garden

Incredible portions, beautiful food, welcoming environment and very helpful and attentive staff. This is the best Gastro pub in Surrey by miles. Great price point, play area for the kids and an adequate sized car park. It’s got mood lighting in the pub and more light in the restaurant, a great ambience for a long lazy lunch or a quick bite. We will definitely go back.

Very nice... hope it stays so. Good luck.

Great pub with good food and great people, I left my phone there and it was handed in..most places that would be long gone and thx to the good person who did it..Nice staff too xxx

Friendly welcome good menu and great food at reasonable prices. Also has a dog friendly area!!

Had beer and a meal. Quick service considering they were busy. Nice selection of beer and food. Plenty of outside space in the beer garden.

This place is a real gem! I have popped in for a drink after work, and have been for meals with work colleagues and family members. Everything is excellent - the interior decor, the garden, the food, the service with a smile too.

What a difference the new owners and manager have made, totally transformed this pub probably one of the best pubs in Surrey now.

First time that we have been to The Victoria. Went at lunchtime and had a lovely meal. Staff very friendly

Food was good as was the selection of food and drink. Service was excellent. Reasonable prices

My first visit I was impressed food was very good , my granddaughter loved your fish and chips .

Food excellent but the price of two cokes £6.60 discusting,as much as a pint of beer ,

Good food, good atmosphere. Little slow between order and delivery, On the whole, very good,

Amazing pub with great service and very good food! Must visit it.
