The best restaurants in Cobham and Downside Elmbridge South East

This is a small and friendly cafe in a side street away from the main through road. A nice cup of coffee together with a little overpriced bagel each. Some limited outside seating available

The best roast dinner and lovely warm atmosphere to enjoy the meal,

My first time visiting here for an extended family lunch. Sadly my overall review is not great in terms of service and being overcharged but most of the meals were really good! Sadly our waitress didn't really know anything about the food on offer when asked about the size of the prawn dishes and what was in the sauces for the steaks. Thankfully when most of the starters were brought to us, the delivery was good except that one of our party's starter was delayed. 15 mins later, still no starter and the rest of us had almost finished so we cancelled it. When the mains arrived, all looked great but sadly the steaks which were only offered either either rare or well done, was delivered more medium than rare which was sent back. Most of the meals were pretty good, tasty and a good portion size. We were surprised that whilst a child's menu was available, no child's dessert menu was, so we were charged £6.75 for one scoop of ice cream for the 3 year old (standard portion 3 scoops). Coupled with the menu offering two courses for a price, this was not reflected on the bill so therefore overcharged. Suffice to say, when queried this was adjusted and the cost for the ice cream refunded, however, we didn't like having to make these queries and felt quite uncomfortable doing so. We were also only willing to pay half of the automatically added 12.5% service charge due to the poor service received. A point to be mentioned too are the toilets which are so low, they seem more appropriate for young children and by the looks of things, it was a shock to previous guests as the toilet was very loose on the wall. Such a shame, as we were looking forward to trying somewhere different in Cobham. When restaurants charge premium prices, one would expect more knowledgeable waiting staff and a more efficient service. Thank goodness most of the meals tasted pretty good.

Myself and my mum ordered two hot chocolate’s with marshmallows and whipped cream and they were lovely. We also both had mozzarella and pesto hot paninis and were very hot and cooked to perfection. The young lady who took our order was very welcoming with a lovely smile and a good work attitude. After we had used there toilet facilities I spoke to the Polish woman and thank her for our lovely lunch. She was very happy, professional and polite. Thank you to the staff including the person behind in the kitchen who works very hard. If your in Cobham I would recommend this cafe for a bite to eat. Thank you all yours Lord Butleigh Of Somerset.

I often go here to get my lunch whilst at work. I have had most things from the menu and they are all so delicious and authentic-tasting. The ingredients are also good quality and it’s great value for money.

Great coffee, best I have had in England since visiting from Australia. Lovely lemon and blueberry cake. Good service.

Booked for Boxing Day lunch with my children and grandchildren. Lots of food was unavailable on the menu due to being busy on Christmas Day which is understandable. The sausage and mash arrived the gravy was like coloured water so sent back to the kitchen. The sirloin steak arrived it was cremated but asked for medium and came with 7 chips, the peppercorn sauce was cream in colour and again runny like water. Sent it back to the kitchen it came back the steak was blacker in colour, more chips added and no change to the peppercorn sauce. I could not eat it. Yes this was removed from my bill however I had nothing to eat with my family. What a huge disappointment- will not be returning to this establishment

Terrible crap, not fresh roll, coffee... It's hard to call it coffee. I don't recommend it.

Tasty food & great portions. I found the menu limited in terms of choice but my meal I did have was enjoyable. Great service and lovely friendly staff and atmosphere. I felt very comfortable eating alone.

What once was a go-to family favourite has recently become a bit of a let down. The portions seem to be getting smaller, which for the price is a bit ridiculous. But the most disappointing part has been the service lately. It has been so slow, even if you have made a reservation. It takes so long for even just a glass of water to come out on the tables. The food was okay, I had the tiger prawns and it was a little disappointing, very very small. I also had a burger, which was fine but not anything wow-factor. The drink I had (Blackberry Fizz) was also not good, and made me feel unwell. It tasted very watered down & felt like a sad mocktail.

Fantastic experience thanks to Jack. Excellent customer service would highly recommend

Always a great atmosphere here every time we come. The food and service is excellent and yesterday was no exception. Despite the restaurant being very busy Kayla was so attentive and professional. She's a real credit to the restaurant.

As a South African I really wanted to enjoy Frego since it has SA options on the menu. Sadly the Frego smash burger is the worst burger I’ve ever eaten. The meat was either off or strange mix of meat since it tasted gamey/tangy! I took one bite and couldn’t eat any more. My wife also took a bite and agreed something wrong with the meat. The bun was chewy as if it was stale and had water splashed on it and microwaved. It’s two meat patties, red onion and a sauce, so predominantly just meat, which was awful. My son’s chicken wrap was good and wife’s salmon Poke bowl was ok. We had different staff for order, deliver and then payment. They efficiently cleared my burger, which clearly was 80% not eaten. Expected the staff to ask if there was an issue, but no comment and focussed on efficiently clearing plates. Complained at payment and the server just thanked us for the feedback. Staff are either poorly trained or don’t care!

Great Costa located in Cobham High Street, all that you would expect from a Costa, great coffee, good choice of sandwiches and cakes, plenty of seating with outside seating at the back.
