The best restaurants in Godalming Central and Ockford Waverley South East

Horrendous attitude from the staff. Managed to get my food order wrong then argued with me about it. Food cold.

Unfortunately, my recent visit to Costa today was disappointing, only one person was serving, he seemed overwhelmed and I felt so sorry for him.

This fish & chip takeway has gone now, having been superceded by "Oh My Cod" restaurant and takeway. Deep Blue was comparitively expensive for mediocre fish & chips that always had an odd, cloying smell, either from old, or maybe burnt, oil. Not sure which, but it was unpleasant. Also, they stopped selling pea fritters some time ago, which were a fovourite with the locals. If you don't listen to your customers, they vote with their feet. All in all, not surprising Deep Blue failed in Godalming.

Sometimes noisy/busy but the staff are always great and the food consistently delicious

We came to the Inn on the lake for a Wake. We had a lovely experience even for a very sad occasion. Right from the first phone call, we received such compassionate service. We couldn't fault anything, the welcome we all received, the food, the actual venue. They met all our needs, and we were so grateful. A very big thank you has to go to Nicky for all of her help and kind words.

A rude member of staff had a go at my friend who was paying with cash. The server got annoyed at her for not directly placing cash into his hand because she placed it onto the desk. He proceeded to tell her that is made him feel like a “peasant”. He then proceeded to come over to our table where we were sat and tell us that the cafe was “a business, not a hangout spot” In general not a nice experience due to the rudeness of this member of staff. There are plenty of nicer places to go in godalming than here.

We’ve had brunch here on a number of occasions and find that the service / standard of food you get really does swing between very good and quite poor, depending on just who is staffing the venue that day. Our most recent visit was further proof of this when we arrived through the car park entrance at the back for our pre-booked table. A friend tried to join us from the street entrance and found the front door locked, despite it being 10.30 in the morning. My wife’s ordered eggs florentine which was inedible. The spinach was so wet it turned the muffin into a sponge, leaving the plate waterlogged. Interesting to note that a lot of the prices seem to have recently increased too. A shame.

Came here for drinks and ordered "Potato chips, harissa dip" ahead of dinner. What arrived were salt and vinegar *crisps* with a little dipping bowl of harissa and sour cream. When I asked the staff about it they tried gaslight me into accepting crisps are chips. Not in the UK they aren't! Also why would you pair flavoured dip with strongly flavoured crisps?! The whole experience left us with a bad taste in our mouths, literally and figuratively. We went around the corner to another pub that did generous portions of the food described on their menu at reasonable prices. I cannot recommend the Fox & Finch for food, service, or value for money.

A very tasty vegetable lasagne. The prices are good.

Ordered over an hour and a half ago, hasn't turned up yet...

This coffee shop is the worst of all Gail’s I have been to. Firstly I have to say the staff are very friendly but unfortunately that’s the only positive thing I can say. This was not my first visit but it seems every experience has been the same. If you come at lunch time there is never enough available food and simply sold out before 11:30am, the counter empty with limited options. Smoked salmon bagel, chicken burger, quiches and the list goes on…! On the last visit staff advised that certain foods are being made at certain times, so I did follow their advice and arrived next day just to be told that food I wanted has already sold out again and I should call ahead first! Seriously what kind of coffee shop is this! For the time being I would advised to stay away and don’t waste your time to avoid disappointment. There is so many other places in Godalming who care for ther customers and I’ll be going to these from now on.

Terrible pizza. Skimped on meatballs, skimped on bbq sauce. Terrible cutting, see photos. Slow down and take your time. It's Hindhead from now on, this place has so gone downhill.
