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

Very friendly atmosphere, lovely outside area. Great food, nice wine, Perfect place to meet with family and friends.

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 am not exaggerating when I say this is my favourite place to eat. I come here often for food as it is so good. The chana chole and paneer makhani are delicious and the meal box is great value. I don’t understand why the McDonald’s in this services is usually extremely busy when there is such good curry right there! Since my first visit I haven’t been able to stop coming back. I recommend for anyone who likes authentic and tasty well spiced food.

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

Came for dinner with my friend and her mum. Not from the area so was having a look around. Everyone was really friendly when we came in. Our server Ellie was fantastic, we didn’t manage to grab the name of the other female server in shift tonight but she was also very friendly and lovely to talk to. Food was great and the pub is beautiful.

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

We were made very welcome as a group of 7 adults, 2 children and 2 dogs. Food and service was excellent. Such a lovely find. Thank you.

We chose this pub because they have great vegan options. Also they have good cocktails and an extensive wine and beer list if you have a designated driver. Vegans and non vegans all enjoy the food here and clean plates all round. Booking is highly recommended. Plenty of parking as well.

Always the best takeaway in Cobham. Bothie provides best service.

Went with my girlfriends for a lovely catch-up brunch on Sunday afternoon. Amazing cocktails range and nibbles. We had the arancinni and zucchini to start with, followed by delicious sheperds pie for main. My dessert wast fabulous also, the lavander cake. Highly recommend the Cobham brunch. Service was lovely also, our waitress Ellie was very friendly and helpful.

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!

Above and beyond service and spotlessly clean
