Very slow food. Took 30mins to get a bacon roll and egg&salmon roll. At £18 for two rolls and one hot drink, with that wait time, it’s just not worth it.

Most beautiful place great for a good long walk takes about one hour 45 mins to walk around the lake. Peaceful and very well but totally natural, there are swans and Deers.

Nothing like £9.00 quid parking to keep the hoi pollois out! And if that fails getting skinned alive for a coffee and cake! Well, I suppose it goes on the upkeep of the place. The gardens are great in the summer though the lycra-clad Chelsea joggers dragging their pooches around are a bit of a distraction. For some reason there are no waste-bins anywhere. There is also a dearth of park benches... Why? The online map is a study in obfuscation. I mean how many tourists from abroad know what/where an oblisk is? So expect to go round and round in circles... All the trees don't help much either. Last summer I nearly died from heat exhaustion. You'd think that they would put water pipes around the park at least! It felt silly almost dying in a public park. Anyway, nice park lousy map. Lots of well-heeled walkers enjoying a spot of sun.

Looks lovely but no descriptions or allergy info on any of the sweets and cakes. We unfortunately couldn’t ask staff as we gave up waiting to be served after 25mins in a queue with around 10people in front of us, which barely moved. Very disappointed and hungry. The take away cafe/kiosk had an even longer queue. Staff looked barely awake!

Virginia Water Lake is an absolute gem in the heart of Surrey, offering a breathtaking escape into nature. From the moment you arrive, you’re greeted by stunning scenery, with the shimmering lake stretching out before you, surrounded by lush woodlands and beautifully maintained pathways. Whether you’re looking for a peaceful stroll, a scenic run, or a family day out, this place has it all! The circular walk around the lake is simply enchanting—every turn reveals something new, from cascading waterfalls and ancient ruins to vibrant wildlife and picturesque picnic spots. The towering trees create a magical atmosphere, especially in autumn when the leaves explode into shades of gold and red. The fresh air and serene ambiance make it impossible not to feel completely relaxed. One of the highlights is the stunning cascade waterfall, which adds to the tranquil yet invigorating experience. The totem pole, a striking historical landmark, is another unique feature that makes Virginia Water so special. There’s also a fantastic café nearby, perfect for grabbing a coffee and soaking in the views. The real showstopper, though, was the sunset. As the day came to a close, we were treated to the most breathtaking display of pink and red hues reflecting off the water, creating a truly magical and unforgettable scene. It was the perfect ending to an already wonderful visit. Whether you’re a nature lover, a photographer, or just someone looking for a break from the hustle and bustle, Virginia Water Lake is an absolute must-visit. It’s a place where beauty and tranquility meet, leaving you refreshed and inspired every time. Highly recommended!

Very nice place on paper but actually terrible service. Kitchen was supposed to be open until 3.30pm (kitchen for sausage rolls and similar, not real meals…) however when tried to order at 3:20pm I was told by a very rude waitress that they would only do toasties of ready-made stuff, with no explanation whatsoever. Also these toasties are really not worth the money (over £8 for a small ciabatta sandwich with mozzarella). Disappointing despite the very nice location.

wow it was bad, in fact how to ruin a nice walk, family of 5 and i thought we would get lunch after walking around the lake. ordered our food and waited 20mins, ok it was busy but they only delivered two meals. and one of them was wrong. when we asked where the other meals were they realised they had sent someone elses order to our table. so after sorting that out we got another two meals to our table. this was now 45mins from ordring and we are still waiting over the hour and the last meal didnt turn up, we ended up getting a refund for the missing food. and to top it off the carpark was £12.40 long story short it cost me best part of £100 to walk around the lake. our garlic bread got delivered to the table next to us and we had to sit and watch them eat it dribbling. its a good walk but ill never use that cafe again

Pretty good food here, maybe a little pricey, though, but that's the "location premium" I guess. The bacon sandwiches at £4.50 each are little steep, but at least they taste good and don't skimp on the quality of the bun, either - which is often forgotten but it (also) is a vital bacon butty ingredient!

The cafe here is not at all dog friendly despite the huge number of people who must come to the park with dogs. Although there are no signs on the doors we were told dogs were not allowed inside. It was a bitterly cold day but they don't provide blankets for the outside seating unlike many other cafes. Apparently this is all due to 'Crown Estate' rules. Service was also amazingly slow. Add the very expensive parking charge and you get a visit WE won't be repeating.

By far the worst service I've experienced in my lifetime. 6 staff members, 1 of which operating the till (struggled to understand simple orders),1 making drinks and the other 4 standing around. Took 15 minutes to get to the front of the queue (3 people in front of me), the poor lady in front of me had been waiting 20 minutes for a coffee and cake and was forgotten. One of the waitresses was asked about allergy information and said: 'I don't know anything about allergies'. Absolutely appalling and potentially life-threatening for some. I won't even mention the prices...

This review is for the Virginia Water Pavilion aka cafe. The atmosphere and scenery is great, especially given the price of menu items. Unfortunately the service and quality is the opposite. Many people in our group of 6 were not satisfied with their orders. In general, given the price, the quality of food & drink was poor, as was the service. Drinks were way too sweet, and the chicken pesto mozzarella sandwich was too salty (says me, who normally takes more salt than others). The serving staff are especially clueless about service, again, given the prices they're charging. One server simple came and put our plates down without asking who each item was for. Another lady came to serve us our drinks, and when we asked which was which, she basically said "No English. Italiano". Finally, I was mischarged on my order unnecessarily. The extra amount was 30p but it's still overcharging, negligence at best. I ordered a Chicken Toastie with coleslaw which should be £9.50 total but for some reason I was charged £9.80 per order. I did not order any extra salad. To top it off, the menu listing states that this item comes with Kettle crisps, but we were given tortillas with absolutely no explanation. Pictures of menu, receipt, and order are with this review. Incidentally the receipt says "Cash" but I paid by card, so I have no idea what they're doing. Overall a negative experience and one I would not recommend. Hopefully this was because of issues with staff because other ratings are high.

Lovely park, pity about the poor service in cafe. Ordered food, it wasn't very busy, waited for 20 minutes then food came with no drinks, waitress said drinks were.coming, another 10 minutes went by before I had to ask for someone to bring. Maybe most Staff are ok here, but our waitress was not interested in doing too much that day as I saw another person same thing happened. I wouldn't go to cafe again but would prefer Saville Garden cafe anyway and park is really beautiful.
