Excellent quick service. The food was delicious and the staff were really friendly especially Calun. They were also very engaging with recommendations of drinks to try. The pub had a lovely welcoming atmosphere this is the reason it is now my regular.

No manager and no draft bitter! They only do 1 bitter now and they can’t even make that work….. Constantly running out of wine… painful

We were welcomed on entry and served quickly. The food menu is good value food when it arrived was well presented. The premises is very clean tidy and a pleasant place to spend a few hours. Would be rude not to thank Callum and Rlliot for their excellent service. Highly recommend this pub situated in a prominent position in the high street.

I’ve been a frequent visitor to The William Garland in Caterham, and whilst not all my experiences have been pleasant in recent times due to a previous member of staff. I want to highlight the exceptional service provided by Shona. Her professionalism, dedication and respect shown towards customers is highly commendable and enhances the overall experience at the pub. I’ve heard her Sunday Roast is also very good and well worth the trip down.

Just had lunch with my sister - we chose (lunch and drinks menu) available Monday to Friday 12-3pm. Chicken BLT and Halloumi and Chili Jam flatbread wrap comes with a soft drink for just £8 or add £2 for alcoholic drink. Service was very good as was the food. Not too noisy so managed to chat, lovely view of the garden. Definitely popping back for lunch again. Thank you Lindsay for all your help with our order.

Up until about a year or so ago we used to enjoy the food here, however, we visited today & unfortunately had the our second terrible meal there. The last one we thought was a one off as 3 out of 4 meals came out stone cold & half of it missing. Today’s meals were no better. The chicken BLT sandwich came out with no bacon or tomato & only small chicken pieces on one half of the sandwich. The 2 cod goujon sandwiches were even worse, with only 2 tiny fish goujon’s (way smaller than a normal fish finger) that barely filled one half of the sandwich? They were basically 80% bread & 20% filling. The kids tomatoe pasta was just a bowl of plain cooked pasta with a spoonful of passata sauce dolloped on top! I know people are making cut backs etc but that doesn’t mean we should cut back on quality. It looked like it had been made by a 10 year old? Thank goodness for the friendly barman who was actually very helpful.

After arriving was confronted and accused of stealing by but a regular, who then repeatedly threatened me, when I haven't been to the pub for almost six months, was then threatened again, after watching CCTV they said it wasn't me but told me if it was I need to watch out. Then they started to accuse my friend saying it as him. I'm 20 stone my friend is half my size so how you would ever confuse us, is beyond belief. Then the staff came out and told us we were thieves and we stole and it was us on CCTV, when we asked to see the video we were told we weren't allowed. The staff were rude and constantly told accused us. I've never stolen anything and was treated like a criminal and have never had such a disgraceful experience.

Very poor. Served a pint of beer that had been sitting for a while behind the bar due to a previous incorrect order. I questioned this and was told I could bring it back if no good. If was flat! My husband had a freshly poured pint of the same beer which was nice and lively. I went back to the bar after one sip and was told it was due to an old style glass! My husband’s fizzy beer was in the same style glass. Anyway, after lots of tooing and froing I was finally allowed a fresh pint! Everyone at the bar was telling the manager to “sort it out” 😊 The barman came privately to our table to apologise for the managers “very poor judgement” Our family came to join us and I suggested we go elsewhere as the service was so poor. We did. We won’t be back!

Shocking food !!! Ordered the pie with mash and peas, pastry tasted like it had been left over from the day before and reheated in the oven again. The contents was all dried out and neared a hammer to get into the thing. My son ordered the fish and chips and his fish looked like it had been out of water and sunbathing for a month !!! It was so dry the fish had coiled into the shape of a large onion ring. The pub is cozy and plenty of room to watch the football and drinks are fine, just really disappointed with the food I would have been embarrassed if I had of served that up at home.

Totally peed off, the nights are drawing in trying to read my newspaper, the lights were turned down at around 6pm on asking for them to be turned up. No GK policy, asking - why the reply being the same. I've had words with the area manager before and was told this should happen at 7.00pm; as a pensioner who spends good money in this establishment for 6 days per week is a sad enditement of GK policies!!!
