The best restaurants in Mole Valley South East

THE ABSOULTE GUVNOR! will always be the best grub in the UK for me. All around the world different level! Cheers phil and the team

I am a conneisseur of fish and chips as I was brought up in Yorkshire ( God's own country). The fish in particular is truly excellent every time .Generous portions of white chunky fish , cooked to perfection . I challenge you to find better anywhere outside Yorkshire. So come on you soft Southerners , give it a try !

While I do agree with all the wonderful comments regarding the food, service and general friendliness I would strongly advise anybody who is getting sick to death of cyclists taking over a place to steer well clear. Sadly the cafe has been ruined by hoards of them who are not just contents with taking over the inside by moving tables about and shouting at each (other thinking they still have helmets on) but now lean their bikes up against the new Flower boxes, windows and outside tables making it impossible to sit anywhere. I do understand the financial considerations of this particular type business but as other cafes have now discovered this could be at the detriment of regular customers who will of course spread the word to others. Really sad that we had to walk away yet again today as we simply could not get to a seat either inside or out because of them so will not be returning.

Discovering this place is a dream come true! As someone who is gluten-free, it is often very hard to find anywhere that has cake that I can eat. This place delivers in trumps! There are so many flavours to choose from, and every single one is delicious and moist. Would highly, highly recommend!

Superb burgers... so glad I swung by and gave it a go. Had so many bad van burgers in the past that I usually give vans a miss. Not this one, I'll be back soon!

Yesterday I had business in the Surrey Hills and I do declare I ate the best ham, egg and chips that any kitchen ever put on a plate anywhere in the world! The winning establishment is the Abinger Hammer tea rooms. Service by the sole proprietor, Anne! I also picked up a couple of surplus squashes from a neighbour’s wall left out for passers by. Kindness and good service may still be a force to be reckoned with!

Very sweet waiting staff and huge portions of food and great value. Lovely and clean establishment too. Very impressed.

What a busy oasis in the village. We were just ahead of the lunchtime rush and very soon all tables were full. We both chose salads, mine was the daily special, bacon and avo. Hearty and delicious. We were tempted with sharing a cake or cookie afterwards but the portions are so generous, we resisted!

Very pleasant in every aspect but an outstanding chicken and vegetable soup was worth commending as was the pleasant atmosphere and staff

We had my mums 65th Birthday Party at the Healthy Kitchen on Saturday Evening, Our Host Dawn was Brilliant from start to finish, From Our prior meetings to discuss arrangements etc to having breakfast with visiting family the next morning at the venue, It exceeded all of our expectations and our guests were so impressed with how amazing the venue was! So Much so they were all enquiring as to when We could have our next Family Party! Thankyou to Dawn and all the staff for making it a night to remember! We all had a fantastic evening!!!

Holmestores is one of my absolute favourite spots in the area for food. The menu changes with the seasons and is always incredible. I brought family visiting from overseas here a few times and they kept talking about wanting to go back. The service is always so lovely and friendly too.

Always made to feel very welcome. Great food, and often something new to try. We stop by more often.

Wonderful food stall selling locally sourced food. It operates on Fridays and Saturdays. Apart from the regular items of meat, veg and bread etc, there is always something new to be found, depending on the time of year. Star service is friendly and helpful. A great place.

Management staff were on the ball with emails to and from them re our booking. We asked for a dome for birthday lunch which was a great experience. Warm and comfortable, overlooking the lake. Food was delicious too. We will most certainly return.

This is run by the grange and encourages some disadvantage people to cook and mix the customers. Although the choice of food and drinks are limited there is enough to choose from . Jacket potatoes were nice. It is very good value and a worthwhile cause.to support, booking in advance is essential
