Wooden Bridge in Guildford

We Come here whenever me and my partner visit his mum in Guildford. Got served nearly all our drinks by Tia and Ollie and as a worker in a pub aswell I know how stressful a busy Friday night can be but these two were such wonderful workers. We were out for our anniversary and they honestly have been the ABSOLUTE BEST serves I’ve ever met. Thank you guys for your service tonight ! Definitely will come back if these two are working !

Service and food great but the place really could do with some repairs and redecoration. Toilets were awful.

Clare was very friendly and food by chris was lovely x

Compliments on the wings to chef Matt honestly top tier

Had a great time and the food was delicious! a big thank you to the chef Matt and Clare for the service.

I've been going here for a few years and this needs to happen for this place to really excel, because it can, has lots of potential but is lacking in certain areas: - When there's football/Rugby on, OMG please add extra staff - Food wise I dunno really, very hit and miss - Men's toilets to the right of the main bar, THE MOLD HAS MOLD, sort it out, rip it out, I don't care. But that stuff isn't healthy regardless of how long you are staying in there for!!!! - Water and mold damage to the walls and ceilings needs sorting out, no excuse. - Also goes for some of the furnishings, the backs of the main seating areas are practically ripped/cut and its not pleasant to feel bare sponge while enjoying a beer. - I'd love top see some NFL/Super bowl here as well

Had a lovely lunch, delightful staff Claire and Matt were so friendly and helpful. Food was very nice and excellent prices. We will be going back very soon.

We had a sunday dinner it was very good the service was excellent thank you Billy

A great place to enjoy the sport and theatmosphere the staff are friendly and welcoming

I ordered 2 portions of chips and chicken goujons for my child and 17 year old, I was told they would both have to be adult sizes I was charged €42 for both, extremely over priced for the size of the portions

Food is what you pay for, pub grub. Nice to see it busy with a lovely mix of people. Woodenvridge us on its way back

Fair price. Fantastic atmosphere, you can fine all sports. Wednesday hamburger day!! Just didnt like the coctails.

Would just like to say thank you to Billy the chef at he wooden bridge and all the staff especially Claire for the best roast dinner ever for Mother’s Day thank you all

Best pub in Guildford. Go here every Friday possible a Thursday as well. Never disappoints good pints, decent food and the bar staff know my order what more can you want? Honestly the best pub in Guildford. If your not coming down your honestly missing out. Kebab next door decent as well.

Great pub, cheap food and drinks, they do student discount too

Great staff, great atmosphere and great prices

Two main meals brilliant value for money, quick service, staff were lovely. Will be back

Staff are very welcoming and friendly :) I always have a great experience every time I visit! Would highly recommend for anyone that fancies a drink :) chef Lisa also cooks up a good meal without fail!

On the Friday 23rd Feb, night I went, it seemed very short on staff and waited 45 minutes for the food to arrive!!

Hit and miss with the portion sizes. Staff are all very friendly but service is rather slow. But not enough to put you off going there just need to be patient

Really awful management tonight. I witnessed and heard racial abuse towards a young female. The manageress who was not working but was drinking with the culprit seemed to take the side of the offender. Even once I told them what I had heard, the offender was not asked to leave, but continued about his evening. What makes it even worse, is the victim was a member of staff and her manager appeared to do very little to take her side or support her.

Another excellent Sunday roast beef lunch here today. I love this place; it's dog, family and wheelchair friendly. Good food and a wide selection of drinks. The staff here are wonderful. It also has a beer garden, parking and WiFi.

Lovely hearty Sunday roast, brilliant service/ lovely staff. Will be back next week!

Lisa has been great! Highly recommended

The server was so rude, I have never experienced service like this before, in fact I have never felt compelled to make a bad review in my life but it was so bad I felt like I just had to comment, just stay away from here if you want to have a nice relaxing evening after work unless you want to be treated like you are still dealing with the stress at work

Waited 20 minutes for service and when mentioning that I have waited a long time and people before me have been served they just said well I don't know the order! when knowing full well I have been waiting a long time and saying it I'm such a manner that makes you feel like a 3rd rate citizen. And the blonde waitress who refused to tell me her name knowing full well I was going to leave a bad review after my experience was so rude and so uncompassionate that I thoroughly believe I have never had such bad customer service in my life, but there was a lovely member of staff she half redeemed this cesspit. The last owners were so much more attentive and much more customer care orientated. However the food was adequate and the atmosphere was good but service leaves a lot to be desired.

Yuk. Tough locals pub. Worth avoiding.

This a very nice place. Relaxed and quiet atmosphere even with numerous tvs and pool tables around. Good service from staff. Polite & attentive also quick to clean tables of glasses. 2for1 offers on a few beers and cocktails,which my wife said were good & quite strong.lol. The price if the food is outstandingly cheap so we expected a kind of so so meal. Not at all the quality and quantity is fantastic possibly the only rime I have not 'moaned' about some aspect of the meal. We will definitely be going back, valentines day actually as I'm a cheapskate,lol. 3drinks 2 meals and change from £25. Seriously people this place is worth checking out. Wayne and Kim. Have since returned and built my own burger, big piece of chicken chips onion rings and 3 sides, smoked bacon hash brown and an egg on a Wednesday its for £5. McDonald's bah!!!. I couldn't make this myself at that price. Wife and daughter did the same. 3 very good meals £15.

Just the food took long to be served

Great for the football, good choice of beers but the food is really poor. This is what i would call a football pub so if that's what you are looking for, great but the food whilst cheap is awful.

Lisa the chef was amazing and very helpful.

Lisa the chef was so welcoming and friendly definitely be back again. Food is amazing too

The food was amazing and only £88 for 8 adults & 3 kids main meals. The double burger is huge, so maybe don't double up unless you are well hungry 😋 Lol. Happy eating 😋 ☺️ 🤗

Lost phone down side legends helped us get it out

Great pub, very large but was plenty of cozy corners. Large tvs to watch the football so a big bonus. Staff were very kind and polite.

Great food and service just a shame quite a few things off the menu wasn't available

Great pub, large inside but still managed to find a cozy corner

Had the best time at the Bridge, Charlotte behind the bar was an absolute gem. Will definitely be back soon

Went here with my girlfriend expecting a nice relaxed date last night. However food took 45 minutes to arrive. When it did arrive it was cold. If that wasn’t bad enough the food has also caused me and my girlfriend’s stomachs to be in tremendous pain the day after and caused us both to be violently ill!! About everything that could possibly go wrong with the food did go wrong. Absolutely shambolic!!

This pub is an excellent spot to unwind with friends, enjoying a game of pool and darts while sipping on drinks. The pool is conveniently priced at £1 per game, with the ease of contactless payment; however, coin payment options were not visible. The bar staff remained friendly and delightful, even during peak hours. To add to the appeal, there's a happy hour offering on selected beers and cocktails, enhancing the overall experience. Whether you're a pool enthusiast or simply seeking a vibrant atmosphere, this pub provides an enjoyable setting for socialising and leisure.

Have been here many times,we go back because it's cheap,family and dog friendly.just after Christmas there was no toilet roll in the ladies just packs of napkins???why didn't someone walk to coop over the road??I've read rumours that it's to close and is just about ticking over u til greenkingdecide what to do with it. It's always busy. The decor/maintenance is awful with water stained walls,peeling wallpaper and appears to be crumbling.food is hit and miss during last summer we used to take bets on what food we ordered would be in stock because 80-90%of the menu was unavailable.there seem to be new managers every couple of months. What could be a really lovely pub is totally unloved. greenking menu is affordable and the pub is the better of two within walking distance of home with our small children . We have had to send back meals that shouldn't have been served to a dog,let alone a human but we've also had some really good pub meals.agyer we tried to order cocktails off the menu in the last couple of weeks and they didn't have the drinks to make those cocktails

Shame to see how downhill it's gone, used to love this place.

Great pub and good food. Sam will go above and beyond for you.

Went to the Wooden bridge for the senior lunch time menu with Mum and Dad , prices very very reasonable and good choices .. but in ordering found only my third choice available.. but staff member came and chatted and apologised for lack of choices and gave reasons hopefully will improve as time goes on , a nice touch and good customer service .. the chicken Diane I had was very tasty , chips were perfectly cooked and pudding included apple crumble and custard tasty .. all for the price if £5.49 .. the staff were very friendly and professional , the tables and facilities were clean .. the building itself a little dated could do with some TLC , reminds you of a working man’s club but for a casual lunch definitely would. Recommend.. my Mum and Dad go there regularly, oh another nice touch give your car reg to bar staff and parking free ..

I have many fond memories of this pub, it was my first local when I moved to Guildford all the way from Australia 25 years ago while I was in my 20's. I worked at one of the companies in the business park across the road so there were many extended lunches spent here with work colleagues, usually with a sneaky pint or two! Last week I returned to Guildford for the first time in 20 years, so I dropped in for a quick beer and to reminisce about old times. It was just as I remembered it. Thanks for all the good memories, Bridge!

We are neighbors of the bar, we really enjoy going to play cards, have dinner with friends or just when you're tired in the evening after work. There are many food options, and some very good deals too. I recommend 💯.

Really good pub grub! And friendly staff! The chips came piping hot, definitely freshly made. Had a great time there!

Lively People and service element Foods

Lovely friendly pub for everyone

3 nice pool tables and very friendly staff

£5 burger Wednesday. I be back every week! Fresh hot and quick. Lisa was very attentive host. Highly recommended !! Will be telling friends and family for sure

3 dinners and 2 disappointing meals

brilliant food service from billy and lovely atmosphere will fast drink service from lisa.

Roast dinners were really good and great value for money.

Came in recently and the place was pretty quiet so we had no issue getting served promptly and the food was delicious. We were brought out the meals by the lad who cooked it which was a nice friendly touch. Just moved to the area so will be making it our new local.

Just left the place 10 minutes ago because of the lady behavior who's take our order at the bar. We never had such a terrible attitude when someone taking our order!

Toilets stink real bad could smell them from bar Food was standard salad was poor just iceberg and two slices of pepper

Came here for New Year’s Eve drinks was hoping to get food but not a problem since the kitchen was closed. However the bar staff who served me was extremely rude and unpleasant. I gathered her name was Clare, red hair and glasses. Waited for over 20 min for a drink and some crisps and when I went to investigate where my order had gone I was told rudely by her that she was very busy and diddnt have time to make the app orders. Being on her phone was obviously more important to her than customer service. It seemed to be a common issue as other customers i spoke to also commented on her attitude and poor service. I used to enjoy going to this establishment but unfortunately I won’t be returning as I have been well and truly put off by the experience.

Visited today for a late lunch. Awful service from bar staff. We weren’t served the drinks we ordered through the app. When I went to the bar to collect them instead, I was ignored by bar staff to begin with. When I was eventually served, I received possibly the worst service I’ve ever had. Complete rudeness by the woman behind the bar. No customer service, rude remarks, sarcastic tone and no manners. Horrible atmosphere in the pub. I wouldn’t bother going back.

Don’t know if the bar lady was having a bad day or not but there’s no need to speak to customers the way she did whatever excuse. Beyond rude. Middle aged woman, Red hair with glasses.

Went to visit this pub on Christmas Eve as it’s my local and have never been before. I was waiting at the bar for 5 minutes whilst staff members wondered around, didn’t acknowledge me and talked to their friends/ groups of lads and so I decided to leave and head into town. Literally the worst pub atmosphere I’ve ever experienced, awful place 😑

Sorry to say this but the experience was very very unpleasant over 3 hours to get all courses and to add insult to injury the toilets were out of order male and female and no loo paper and the mens toilets stank so I had to use the disabled toilet so well done wooden bridge!!! 😡😨

Lisa is amazing! Thank you. Would recommend 👌

Again another good green king pub,was a bit tricky to find but food order was spot on and quick,good selection of beers 🍻

Nothing great. If you do not expect too much then you will not be disappointed. Very slow service at the bar.

Good service but the food took almost two hours to arrive, waited for a long time and the staff weren’t very helpful about it.

Kitchen closed so no food waited 6 minutes for barstaff to actually come out from the back to serve me and the pub was empty

Tried to give this pub a second chance but what a disaster! No 'all day' roasts left at 2pm, signs on bar saying they were short of certain foods (again!!), not many eating in pub but we waited over one hour for 2 meals, we asked for refund and went to Greggs. Such a shame few years back it was a good pub but it has gone right down hill.

What an absolute shambles of a pub… kitchen not open again?! I’m yet to go on an evening when the kitchen is open or you have a fully stocked menu! Terrible terrible service… the barman was extremely rude, shouting at me and my friends swearing at his staff why anyone would want to work there is beyond me, I definitely won’t ever be back

AWFUL service, worse I’ve ever had. Bartender was incredibly rude, was swearing and didn’t want to be there. Acted like I’m drugs.

Popped in last week,lovely food. Service , great atmosphere, will be going back for sure 😎

dartboard and light completely broken looking a bit tired

Amazing place full of character.

Really good experience. Came on a Wednesday lunchtime without booking. Food very reasonable. Still very good quality.

Used to love this place before the new management took over, no burgers, food took almost an hour, there were 2 pool cues, one was broken - bearing in mind there are 3 pool tables… so disappointing as it used to be such a good place to go! The staff just aimlessly walking around too… did a bunch of lads decide to buy a pub and wing it? 🤣

Still remains the best pub I've been too as an all rounder. Only thing that lacks is a picturesque beer garden but other than that it's perfect. Excellent for live sports. Well priced drinks. Cheap and delicious food. Pool tables and plenty of space inside. Many of my favourite nights watching the big games have been here.

bradley started aggressively cursing saying to leave even though it was 10:30. My friend cried afterwards due to his behaviour

Food was nice. Bar staff couldn't handle the amount of people in the pub

Did not have anything we wanted. No wings, no salad, no chicken options. We went on a Tuesday night at 6PM. There were no people there.

didn’t have half the menu. decided on flavoured chips as a snack but even they came out wrong?!

Had Sunday lunch here - was abit busy but the food came out in a good time and was very hot , girl behind bar seemed happy

Had Sunday Lunch which looked great but vegetables came from frozen and a bit rubbery. Fresh veg would have made it 5 star. Will go again.

Filthiest restaurant I have ever been in

We use a Green king pub every week and are very happy This pub needs a management inspection or shut it down it is a disgrace 🤬

Can you believe you have to pay for parking because of surveillance cameras surely it should be free.

The staff are lovely and the atmosphere was nice. Unfortunately, part of the ceiling had severe water damage and kind of looked like it could fall down at any moment, One set of ladies toilets was out of order by the seems of it and the food that I had (a chicken kebab) was very bland. It had 4 slices of breaded chicken and around 7 chips. The rest of the food was good, I just wouldn't order the kebab again. This is also very much a "sports pub" so if you're not into football on in the back round then this isn't going to be for you. Update: We tried the Wooden Bridge again as we were thinking about going there for our family Christmas Meal.. Once again, the bar staff were lovely and very accommodating. The food has somehow got worse. We had a burger (which was burnt and flavourless), cheesy chips (that had the smallest dusting of grated cheese with somehow less flavour) and garlic bread (which was so hard we were cracking it in half). Were not confrontational so we ate our food and left but I can honestly say we wouldn't eat here again. Both sets of toilets seemed to be working which is great except the water damage has become so severe in one toilet it looks like the walls are crumbling. Nothing has been done to fix the issues which is a real shame.

Arrived before 9 pm but was told no food available, card machine not working, and have to pay £2 cash for parking. Wont bother going again

Ordered starter and main. Starter came out after 20 minutes ok, main didn't arrive after 1 and half hours as the same as others being told they could have a refund. Took refund will not return.

No food on offer Friday lunchtime, so left and went down chippy.

Food is the highlight, fairly good drinks choice, pool tables are pretty good - lack of atmosphere unless you really like sports. service can be pretty slow.

Has nice paid parking. Haven’t been to the pub yet.

Service only got a 4 because there were short staffed, but amazing service and even with the 2 of them they smashed it.

Staff are brilliant, atmosphere is amazing very welcoming pub encourages dog friendly environment and good entertainment!

One of our favourite places to come! All members of staff are so friendly, great service and love the student discount!

Really nice pub, reasonably priced drinks and excellent service! I was served by a lovely girl called Tyler who despite it being busy always had a smile on her face, we were also served by James who was also really nice and made us feel welcome - would definitely come again when we are next in the area!

This is the second time I have gone in on a Sunday and there is a reduced menu. This place is going down hill what a joke. Won’t be going back for sure

Been a few times and every time had quite a lot of food out of stock

Fast service and polite staff however not sure why PHO was on menu as it was not good and the chicken was quite honestly as tough as old boots !!

Fabulous bacon butty and full breakfast . I didn't know that you had to pay for the car park, but the landlord was very welcoming and helpful x x

Wanted to visit this pub for years but never found the time.. went in yesterday for drinks and was refused entry by a long haired blonde guy.. he said his colleague told him to bar me and wouldn’t give me a reason.. despite me remaining friendly he told me to “F**k off, mate” Now, I haven’t been to this establishment since 2020 and that was for a small meal with my godchildren and their parents in the afternoon… food was good and staff were friendly so I’m failing to understand what I’ve done to get myself banned
