The best restaurants serving Default food in Waverley South East

This is a review for the Afternoon Tea. It was excellent and extremely good value. The portions are generous and good quality and the lady serving us was very friendly.

Met up with a couple of friends for a girlie lunch . We were shown to a great table not rushed at all . Had a great choice of wine and drinks for us and we choose lots of things to share as we gossiped . It was clean and tidy and all staff we encountered were friendly especially Penni the manager . Such a shame it’s closing we will have to find a new place to lunch . Thank you

In the late 1990s The Swan was the best pub restaurant for miles around. The food was excellent as was the service and the couple who ran it were very hands on. Sadly they sold and The Swan was bought by a brewery chain and moved from great to not so great to actually terrible. It was a real shame. We went once just before Christmas and there was one other couple dining. This in a pub that used to be packed. To add insult to what is a lovely old building in a beautiful village, the pub was badly redone inside and painted outside a sort of sludge green. Now thankfully The Swan has been sold again and bought by a young couple with good experience. Of course you can’t change everything overnight but the food on the Sunday we went was superb and the service getting back to where it should be. Long may it continue to improve.

Called up the restaurant using the number provided on here but was told the restaurant is now called Lucky Star - that should have been my red flag. Anyway, placed my order and went to pick it up and what do you know? The chicken was rancid. I did not want to believe it, why would a restaurant with so many great reviews give me rancid salt and pepper chicken? But alas, I could not deceive myself even if I tried - I had been given chicken that had gone OFF cleverly coated in spring onions and chillies. Why for all that is good would you guys do something so obviously bad? Have you no conscience? Are you dead inside? Is money all that matters to you? Do you wish me dead? Is everything else rancid as well or is it just the chicken? ANSWER ME!!!

Have been going to the fleece for years and it has always been alright, the pub side of the restaurant is great but the food is letting it down. The prices have gone up and the portions have gotten very small, not to mention it all tasted the same. The starters used to be my favourite part of the meal, but felt like I was eating an overpriced takeaway, beige and bland. Overall a very expensive and disappointing dinner.

TAKEAWAY Hard, dry onion bhaji. Poppadoms tasted as if they were cooked in old oil. Overly sweet massala. Dhal overcooked. Bombay potatoes bland. Chicken cooked well tho’!

What should have been a pleasant coffee interlude, in a busy day, was marred by what I regarded as a lecture I received about what type of coffee I had ordered. I requested an Americano with cold milk and was bluntly told by the barista that they were called Espresso's "here". He repeated this. Since I have a foreign accent, I'm not quite sure what "here" he meant. I felt he was rude.

I don’t say this lightly, probably the best chippy I have ever had.

Decided to go out for breakfast with wife and daughter now she's off for Christmas from work Very small cafe with limited space to eat and chat if I'm honest. We waiting by the door and was escorted to a nice clean fresh table with fresh clear cutlery, no music playing which was a real treat given the time of the year. Wife and my daughter ordered sausage sandwich and I had the breakfast with my tomato swapped out for mushrooms Food came out fast with clean well set out plates but it was tasteless if I'm honest Beans were in a very small pot, toast was tiny slices but with butter so can't really moan at that as most places forget the butter Sausages for all of us were the real issue, felt like they were microwaved when you eat them and not seen any real heat as they were the same colour as the white walls 🙄 Daughters iced coffee was so full of ice that had not real liquid in it unfortunately as the girth of the glass was so thin I paid and probably will not be back as food undercooked at best but amount was good. But the way it was worded on the menu gave the impression it's a "BIG" breakfast... Definitely not that!

First visit here for lunch whilst en route to Winkworth Arboretum. Left with very mixed feelings. It's in a nice location with attractive interior decor but... Completely agree with other reviews regarding staff. The girl on the till came to take our order about 3 seconds after we'd sat down; she didn't seem to have a clue how to use the tablet for orders and spent most of her time standing around doing nothing whilst the guy in the kitchen did all the work. As a result we ended up having to wait ages for our food. We ordered quiche + 2 salads and sausage roll + 2 salads. The food was ok but charging £12 for that is outrageous! And to make matters worse, they allow dogs inside and my lunch was ruined by 3 tiny, stinky dogs arriving at the table behind me. In my view, dogs should not be allowed inside where people are eating - it is so unhygienic. Leave them outside! There are better, cheaper cafes around so I suggest you seek them out.

at first seemed good, food seat and menu, dogs allowed, went to order and it appeared I had picked up an old menu so was quizzed quiet rudely by an older woman as to where I had got that from, I pointed to the table where all the menu's were. Finally ordered and paid and then food arrived, baguettes were actually very nice and an attempt at presentation with a few crisps, lettuce leaves (some brown) and tomato, the cheesy chips looked and according to my son tasted good my daughters wrap was disappointing and a little stale around the edges. The Mochas were not stirred so all the chocolate was at the bottom of the cup, not the best lunch and won't be rushing back!

I booked and paid for my Grandsons’s and family to go skating on the 23rd to be told on the 24th they would be closing so therefore no skating on the 27th. Two very disappointed Grandchildren . Interesting in only a few hours after taking my money they cancel via a email .I look forward to getting my money back and sadly will probably never think about going to future events. Not very professional they have not even replied to my email.

I was served by a lovely gentleman called Jeet who was very friendly, patient, polite and helpful! I thoroughly enjoyed the interaction and the pizzas I order were perfect! Great service, would recommend to a friend and I will be going back there soon!

My family have had many excellent meals at this pub over the years. Last Friday we visited with two friends. My partially sighted friend ordered Moroccan lamb which did not say on the menu that it contained chillies. Had we had known that my friend would not have chosen it as she has a delicate stomach. Her husband had to remove them from her food. I had ham egg and chips. The eggs were so under done that they were inedible. The two men had calves liver with mashed potatoes which was were just warm. We mentioned it to the waitress who said “oh dear” and offered me one free latte. Very poor.

I have been staying with them for a long time and every time I stay they make me feel really welcome and comfortable. Worth staying and the food in restaurant is amazing as well.
