The Windmill in Surrey Heath

I don’t normally make reviews like this in fact i didn’t initially want to however i feel like i must be honest and sincere My mate and i came to this pub last night on the 15th of April 2025 initially to watch the champions league football match we ordered pints and watched the game when suddenly from behind one of staff members who was holding at least 4 beers on a tray dropped it right on me and my mate making the glass explode all other the floor and me and my mate soaked i understand that these frustrating incidents happen but what shocked me and my friend the most was that the lady did not even apologise to us instead it had to be another member of staff who was a witness apologised on behalf of the other girl this was not it as later that night a very small bottle that i had purchased in a corner shop earlier that night that i did not consume at the pub because i am aware it is disrespectful and not permitted so we had consumed a quarter of it beforehand and outside the pub i did not have a bag to put it in so instead i left it on the floor below the table bare in mind that i had not consumed alcohol at the pub which did not come from the pub as i went to the toilet they took it away from me they refused to give it back to me and they proceeded to put it in the bin in front of me i know i should not have resisted even though i tried to stay calm and composed the staff rudely kicked me out and the lady even got 2 male staff members to chase me out all i wanted was my bottle back i had spent 18.99 at the shop for it i was not going to put it in the bin so i took the risk i understand it’s youre policy but the staff didn’t have to react in that manner i wouldn’t say that i would not recommend this place because the location is nice and so is the decoration. Additionally it has got good football tv quality but it’s a shame that the staff were acting so rudely in fact i’m pretty sure that because me and my mate are young 18 year olds the staff treated us with less respect as they would normally do to other customers and made us feel less welcome in some way i talked about it with my mate and he agreed about the feeling of discrimination as they were giving a “ go home little boys " type of vibe in conclusion not satisfied at all 70 pounds worth of clothes ruined for both me and my friend not an apology a 20 quid bottle gone and being chased out in a aggressive way after we bought 2 pints each from the pub not good enough we tried to remain tranquil and polite all night

A lovely meal. Squid was excellent. Great service from Kelly. So polite, helpful and patient! We took ages to choose what we wanted to eat as busy chatting. But nothing was too much bother.

This was our second visit, the last being just before Xmas. We had the roast and to say the portions were generous is an understatement. The service was quick and attentive, even though they were very busy. An excellent varied menu. We were served on our this visit by Rhys, the new manager, who was very friendly and answered our questions quickly and knowledgeably. Would certainly recommend a visit

We discovered this lovely pub/restaurant about a year ago , and since then have had many repeated visits. The menu is varied and full of nice twists on old favourites. They have a specials menu too , which is always worth ordering from. The roasts are a really good size , ( my dinner companions often have to finish mine! ) Prices are good ( for the area ) One of the absolute best things about the place is the staff - they are incredible , but so welcoming and efficient , it is great to see.From the first time ate there Alex - ( ashamed to say her name might be Alice - our party argued about her name all the, way home ) Has been a star, nothing is too much trouble .Unusually the above comment goes for everyone we have come across at this pub.( If they are running low on anything specific they call you - amazing !

What a wonderful dinner we had at the Windmill! Artisan bread with a pesto sauce that really needs to become a main dish over pasta, halloumi fries with a sweet chili sauce that was dish-licking good were our starters. My companion had the hake as his main course, while I chose the beef and malbec pie. Both were delicious, as were the sides - green beans, mashed potatoes and gravy for me, a corn medley for my friend. We washed it all down with a buttery smooth Chilean Shiraz. Service was also excellent: Daisy W., Courtney and Helena were warm, welcoming and attentive without being intrusive. I would highly recommend this restaurant, and I look forward to eating there on a future trip to the UK!

Great selection of food and drinks. The place is so cosy and really makes you feel at home. The manager and staff were really friendly.

After excellent visits over several years with family members and guests it came to a halt this month. A lunchtime visit with waiting a very long time for food - and sarcastic comments when they received a complaint, ended our patronage. There are so many restaurants in the area - you can pick and choose!

Food excellent, staff excellent. First time we have visited here and won’t be the last. Friend had a great birthday. Great wine list too.

After not visiting The Windmill for several years, we decided to return for Sunday lunch and were pleased to see a good menu with lots of choice. The setting was lovely, with a cozy fire adding to the atmosphere. The staff were welcoming and friendly, and since we brought our dog, we sat in the bar area, which meant ordering at the bar. This wasn’t an issue for us. For food, we ordered the beef roast, the mixed roast, and a side of cauliflower cheese. The flavors were nice, and the portion sizes were generous. However, the main downside was that the food was lukewarm at best—other than the cauliflower cheese, which we had to ask to be reheated. While I didn’t want to make a fuss and ask for the main dishes to be heated as well, I regretted not mentioning it since it affected the overall enjoyment of the meal. In summary, the food was tasty, the atmosphere was inviting, and the staff were kind, but the temperature of the dishes let the experience down. Hopefully, this is something they can address, as the potential is definitely there for a wonderful Sunday lunch.

We'd booked for a Sunday lunchtime in the bar. On arrival, we stood for a good 5 mins with no assistance, welcome or acknowledgement, despite the fact there were two waitresses less than two metres from us, talking to each other and the man behind the bar appeared to notice our predicament, but did nothing to help. This we could have let go, if the food and service had been up to scratch. Sadly neither were. We were given a menu and told to order at the bar, when the table next to us had their order taken at the table. The food arrived promptly, but unfortunately the soup was barely warm enough, bordering on tepid, the ciabatta was half the normal width and cold, with no butter. We had 6 halloumi fries and a chipped dipping bowl. The only redeeming feature was a roaring log fire. Really disappointing, poor service, poor food and poor value for money. Will not be going again

Excellent selection on the all day menu, there was also a festive menu to choose from. All the food we had was well prepared & presented. The service was also excellent.

We like to go to different places for lunch/dinner as we enjoy our food. We've passed this place for years but for some reason never been in. Well that changed today. We had the sea bass and the beef blade followed by the chocolate bomb. The staff were happy to swap the potatoes for haloumi fries, a dietary requirement. Have to say the food was amazing, worthy of Michelin star status, very tasty and decent portions. The chocolate bomb is beyond amazing you have to try it. Overall a delightful experience. The staff are accommodating, the fire is homely and the food is outstanding.

Six ladies gathering for an early Christmas get together! What a lovely lunch! We all choose various options from the Sunday roast menu, and all were delicious. Most of us also found room to squeeze in a mini dessert/coffee combo - delicious brownies! Great service from lovely May. Thank you

Great experience with my friends! Ordered the steak and malbec pie and it was absolutely delicious. Our waiter (Woody I believe) was so friendly and attentive all night. Overall great experience, can’t wait to come back!

We had a great lunch here, and the service was excellent. Two of us had the fish and chips which looked amazing, and I went for the chicken burger which was delicious. If we had more time we would have gone for the set menu, the dessert options looked great. We were served by Woody and he ensured that we had a great time, thank you very much for your help and service.

A lovely evening spent with my friends. Food & service was first class. Thank you to Holly for looking after us so well. The chef was amazing and very welcoming

If you want a lovely place to eat. The windmill has Fantastic food well done to the chef and Holly our waitress. Will definitely be back.

Fantastic Seabass wonderful atmosphere and Holly provided amazing service Chef was most welcoming and wonderful food

Brilliant service from our waiter Max. Very knowledgeable and helpful. Would recommend the Irish Coffee as the best I’ve ever had!

Lovely meal out, food is good every time. Staff were also very polite and accommodating. I would definitely recommend the Windmill for any occasion. 🥰

The windmill is lovely for a casual meal during the day. Their set lunch menu is brilliant value for money and has amazing choices my favourite being the steak sandwich

I came here for a quick lunch and the food and service was amazing. I had the fish and chips which was fresh and cooked to perfection. I definitely recommend to others to try out this pub and will be coming back here in the future!

very good quality food with attentive service. Good range of items on the menu and they are happy to adapt wherever possible to your preference #Pleasant surrounding, not too packed in together and offers a leisurely meal experience

Delicious Sunday lunch, lovely roast beef, very tender. Good atmosphere and excellent customer service.

We have been here twice recently and we will be definately be going again its warm friendly atmosphere feels relaxing the staff are polite and hard working and the food is amazing.

Staff, all very friendly and helpful went with a friend who had some walking disabilities and staff catered with her brilliantly. Very relaxed atmosphere and very clean.Food was delicious with a brand-new menu to look over.

Superb lunch at The Windmill today. Reception was lovely and we were given a quiet table with offer to turn down the music as friend struggles with noise. The food was superb. Mushroom starter followed by Crunch bowl with feta and Crispy Duck Salad. The service was quick and friendly and very relaxing ambience . A relaxed lunch with time to chat. Loved the fact there was so much information about the meals including calories . Very reasonably priced for the quality . A thoroughly enjoyable experience and highly recommend . Brilliant !

Took my mum to the Windmill for Mother’s Day. The staff were brilliant and in particular the general manager Daniella who was very hospitable and gave us a table in the bar to allow us to bring our puppy. Food was excellent and I highly recommend the Ribeye steak! I will definitely be going back for another meal soon, and highly recommend you try the Windmill.

we was at the windmill on mother's day sunday and everyone was so attentive and welcoming the food was excellent we will definitely go back

On a Valentine's day mystery tour, we found The Windmill and because my wife is besotted with windmills we called in. We were made welcome and enjoyed our meals - especially my wife's Vegan one, The waitress (name not noted but the one with the dodgy knees !!) looked after us well and whilst not cheap (what is nowadays?) it was a good experience. Thank you.

Great service and good food for reasonable prices what we come to expect from the dining experience at this chain of pubs

Food is good pub fare but what made it for us was the quality of the service. Jacob was friendly, jolly, welcoming and efficient - and he solved the custard/ice crem dilemma with gereta skill, thereby making it a very good night out . Thanks Jacob!

Food was delicious. Staff were very friendly and professional. We had an amazing evening very relaxed great atmosphere.

What a friendly pub! Great atmosphere - small and personal. Came in for a few drinks and was given cheese too! Staff are very attentive and chatty. Thank you for a lovely evening!

Alex is a great waitress I promise I'm not being forced to write this by her, you can trust me on that one. But yeah really lovely stuff

I visited here for dinner with my girlfriend last night and we had an amazing meal. Both the staff and atmosphere were very friendly and inviting. Then when the food came out we were both blown away by the quality. Can't wait to return

We had Sunday lunch and the food was excellent but the stand out was the young waiter who served us, he was excellent, really friendly with a huge smile. A real asset to the business, well done.

The pub itself is welcoming and a lively fire greeted us but what a let down the staff are. Uninterested, rarely a smile, slow and clearly not trained or monitored in terms of their customer service. Food was average but I would never return as service was so poor.

Was here with my partner for my birthday meal 12/12. Staff very helpful young lad he served us had been there 4 years was very helpful . The meal although nice we had calf’s liver and lamb was not value for money , positions very small and extras veg etc very expensive. We had desert chocolate bomb which was delicious the cheeseboard was adequate though the grapes were well passed their best and personally think butter should be served with this course though I didn’t ask for some. decor sad and there looked like unhoovered mess on the floor. Little things but they add up. However service excellent time of service excellent food good but not brilliant and poor value for money in struggling times.

Excellent meal at The Windmill, Windlesham with family. Food presentation and quality top class, staff were all very friendly, helpful and courteous. We all thoroughly enjoyed our lunches.

This pub is a hidden gem! From the moment I stepped inside, I was greeted with a cozy and inviting atmosphere. The staff was friendly and attentive, making me feel right at home. The selection of drinks was impressive, with a wide variety of beers,...

Arrived for the festive menu, for which we had specifically booked, to be told that sorry, festive menu not available. Chose gammon from main menu - not available. Extremely slow service, plates cold, salad was meagre and without some of the listed items and they...

Had a lovely Sunday lunch, food was fab and service was great. Highly recommend the chocolate bomb dessert absolutely divine

We cane hear for a Sunday lunch with friends. The service was good and efficient but sadly the food was really poor. 3 of our party had the trio roast and one the duo beef roast. The beef was ok on both options but the...

Had a meal with the family. Staff and food absolutely top notch. Great atmosphere Will be back soon 😁

Came here for dinner with my girlfriend. Had an amazing meal, fillet steak was one of the best I’ve ever had- cooked to perfection! Can’t wait to return!

Pleasant surroundings and attentive staff. Good food and quick service. Would visit again. Large car park and small outside area to sit in

Second visit to the Windmill. Only popped in for a drink but ended up having some snacks which were delicious. The staff were very welcoming. Lovely location, the sun was out (well a bit) what more could you want! Back again soon!

Do not book your Christmas dinner here! We made this mistake last year and it was AWFUL! We had to try and find humour in the situation so our entire Christmas Day wasn’t ruined but it was truly terrible. The bar was a mess and...

Very disappointing visit, after ordering two bottles of wine, neither of which were available, I gave up and stayed with the water, my husband had a pint and this took 30 minutes to arrive. This could be because they were busy, but they weren’t, it’s...

We were looking forward to our Sunday roast at the Windmill. I hadn’t visited there for 40 years as I’d moved out of the area. Today was a special treat with my dear old Mum and the on line menu looked very tempting. Duos and...

Popped in to The Windmill as we were in the area, not been in here before…. Nice pub, helpful and friendly staff. The beer is good, for lunch, we ordered two chicken burgers at £17.50 each, our meals were definitely not worth £17.50, the burgers...

Team was really friendly and the food was great, would go again! The team was really friendly and attentive!

The Windmill is a lovely restaurant for any type of setting (casual or formal). Great service and a lovely wide range menu!!! I highly recommend the chicken burger and chocolate bomb for dessert, it was delicious!!!!

Took my friend out for her birthday dinner as I really enjoyed this restaurant before. Once again I wasn’t disappointed!!! Food is absolutely amazing, served quickly and with a smile on the face!!! Place is really cozy. Highly recommend!!!!

Amazing time out with my partner! Loved the food & the service was beyond a doubt one of the best I’ve had in a while. The chocolate bomb was… well… the bomb.

Never really had a bad meal here. The food was good we didn’t have to wait long. Our server ‘Lewis’ was lovely really friendly and nothing too much trouble.

Wasn’t impressed with this place at all. Staff weren’t on the ball at all. Left for ages waiting for mains. Dessert took 45 minutes to arrive. Spoons arrived after 20 minutes, dessert followed 25 minutes later. £22.85 service charged on bill. Won’t be going back....

From the outset you could tell it was understaffed. Starters and drinks took an hour to arrive and when they did were very underwhelming with no garnish or love. We ordered 3 dirty burgers as we’ve eaten these before and we’re very good. Unfortunately they...

We always love going to the windmill but don’t get to go there as often as we would like these days. The windmill never seems to disappoint us Thanks once again for looking after my family and I

We’ve been to the Windmill many times, and loved it. We will not be going again. It was a Saturday evening and I can count on one hand how many people were there. We had the squid as the starter, just one to share, along...

Had a lovely meal out with the family celebrating a birthday. Will definitely be back. The food was well made and tasty. The cocktails were great too!

Hmmm. Service took forever and they tried to charge for a drink which hadn't actually been delivered. Various menu items not available either. Sadly it doesn't really feel like this is worth a visit given they don't seem to care that much about what they're...

Went here for my friends birthday. I ordered the fish and chips and it has got to be the best I have ever had! The staff were lovely and very attentive so will definitely be coming back here. Plus… very good value for how good...

Disappointing lunch all round and for the price, really not worth it. Firstly, a prawn starter was ordered by one of the party. A few minutes later we were told it wasn't available. So a prawn tempura sandwich was ordered. A few minutes later an...

Came here for Mother's day dinner having had some enjoyable visits here in the past. Straight away the pub seemed very busy and the staff seemed stressed. Once seated we were informed that a couple of main meals were unavailable, including the beef roast which...

We are here in Mothers Day and had a pretty rubbish meal. The food took a long time to come and my daughter and I had a roast beef dinner where the beef was inedible. The staff seemed massively under pressure that day and took...

First impressions, this is a pub where you need to book for lunch to avoid disappointment. By 1pm, the restaurant area was full. Extensive menu, including pub classics, burgers, pies and a wide selection of sea food. Also an intriguing pork sharing platter. Good wine...

Very popular pub, good atmosphere and friendly staff. We enjoyed the roast dinner which was very nice and plentiful.

Really enjoyed my visit , friendly staff and nice food ! I would recommend anyone passing by to stop and try out the windmill.

Me and my friend really enjoyed amazing food, nice atmosphere and very friendly staff. Highly recommend this place.

My friend and I visited for the first time. Food was amazing. It was more of a restaurant quality rather than a pub. Staff was very friendly. The whole atmosphere was so cozy we ended up having a three course meal and couple bottles of...

Lovely food and friendly service. Thank you to our waitress Amelia for her recommendations! The Seabass and Chorizo dish I chose was delicious! I recommend trying the cocktails - 2 for 12 (Monday to Thursday) every week is great value for money.

Thank you Windmill- we came for an impromptu drink and ended up having a mid week meal! A really lovely informal atmosphere but with in an intimate feel. Your staff are quietly attentive which meant that our visit was really relaxing. We will come again!

I went to dinner with my boyfriend and we had the worst dining experience. Had a burger with fries, a cheap looking burger bun with a tiny piece of meat with some coleslaw, fries on the side 🤦‍♀️. I had linguini pasta with prawns, there...

We treated our neice and nephew to lunch, first time for us as this venue. Waiting staff polite, meal ordered, no starters so we had 'nibbles' because we thought we may have to wait sometime for our mains but we didn't. Waitress asked whether our...

Very much enjoyed my visit to this pub and look forward to returning again in the not too distant future!

first and last visit to this pub. Firstly we had to ask for someone to take our drink order as we had been sat for about 10mins with no service at all. we didn't have starters just bread and olives which was fine, waited for...

Terrible experience this time. Firstly, we deliberately booked a normal menu as we were not staying for News Years Eve, but the only option was an overpriced fixed £55 menu (which was not declared or even available when booked). Secondly, upon mentioning this the waitress...

Extremely disappointed for our Christmas Day lunch. We arrived 10 minutes before our actual booking we were given a glass of champagne while they got our table ready, 40 minutes later! we were taken to our table surrounded by uncleared tables. Our drinks order was...

We booked months before Christmas for nine of us for Christmas day lunch. We popped into the Windmill several times before and asked to be seated in a corner of the restaurant as my 87 mother's is in a wheelchair, not a problem was the...

I drive past the Windmill all the time and I finally decided to book to go in for dinner and am sure glad I did. It's a lovely pub, very cosy, we were greeted by a friendly member of the team and the service remained...

I had never been to the Windmill but now it’s my favourite pub! The service was incredible thank you so much!

Just visited here with friends restaurant was busy. Had to wait a while but that was fine our waitress looked really like she was having a hard day . We got our starters which was delicious after quite bit of a wait & than our...

as soon as I stepped into the windmill it was like returning home. The staff were so deeply welcoming and the food was exceptional. In particular one young man went above and beyond to make sure all our needs were met. Callum James Donaldson took...

Lovely welcome and nice service. My friends enjoyed their meals but I did not eat mine. I had the Beef Cheek and Double Gloucester Pie with beef dripping gravy. The gravy, beans and mash were good but the pie was not well filled, full of...

We arrived for our Sunday lunch it was very busy but we got a smiley greeting, and shown to our table right away. We ordered cocktails which were superb and we didn't have to wait too long for them. We both ordered the beef sirloin...

I came in a few nights ago. Barman I think called Michael knows his cocktails! Even better he’s a Hamilton fan and I forgot I was meant to be in a zoom business meeting because I got so carried away chatting about F1! Would highly...

Pleasant interior, waited too long to be shown to our table. Very slow service. Served by 3 different people so order was confused. Ordered 2 starters each - one to start, one for main. Both brought together. Sent one back. When it was served for...

Booking: Very easy, we used the on-line booking system. Ambience and Environment: Very nice, the table we were sat at was amply big enough and nicely laid, we were greeted by our friendly but not overbearing waiter and show straight to the table. We were...

Great selection on the menu, including vegan options. Lovely atmosphere and the food was delicious. Pav served us and was brilliant. We will definitely be back!

The Food was excellent and lots of choice on the menu. Sabi served us well. We hadn’t visited since before lockdown and we and our friends enjoyed the meal and service. However, the toilets are shocking. Gents - urinals out of service and broken toilet...

My partner and I fancied a roast and so decided to tried The Windmill as we have never been but always drive past. Service was excellent, we got seated straight away and our sever was fast to offer us drinks. The pub overall felt well...

I always drive past the windmill on a regular basis and have never visited the pub before. We decided to go for an impromptu Sunday roast. We were greeted by the front of house team and taken to our table quickly. The service was excellent!...

Came with some friends for food, which was lovely. Was served by a young waitress, Yasmin, who was lovely and gave us great service.
