The Best Cafes in Blackbrook, Surrey, United Kingdom (2025)

I am totally in love with this place. We were there for breakfast around 9 AM in the morning and we were their first customer ☺️. Such warm staff, they served us really well. They come and ask you if everything is ok, if you like your food or not, If you want anything specific with your food. They have preserved their place really well and written everything about the story of how this place has started.

Not being from the area, I asked a local where is best to go as I had a few hours to kill. They pointed me in the direction of Mullins. I was greeting by great customer service and even better food, iced coffee which was perfect and you can tell they do put a lot of care into their food and their relationships with customers. Whilst sitting here there were people coming in just to say hi to the staff! Great atmosphere and if you are travelling through Dorking, it’s definitely worth to stop.

Love how much history is packed into this little coffee shop. The staff was so friendly and happy to have so many people in their cafe. Quick service and the food was delicious. Many veggie and vegan options for food. Indoor and some outdoor seating. They give you a delicious piece of ginger cake with your hot drink it was very tasty.

The most beautiful coffee shop, in an idyllic setting. The food is diverse and caters for everyone. The staff are super helpful and it is dog friendly. They also have two beautiful donkeys in the paddocks. You can also buy local produce and homemade items. Why go to Costa when you can go somewhere like here.

I have driven past this place many times and had always promised myself one of their full English breakfasts. It was around 930am on a Wednesday morning on a glorious sunny day when I went past the entrance and decided that today was the day I'd fulfil my self promise. Drove up the drive and turned into a reasonably sized grass covered car park. Parked up and made my way into the Farm shop and ordered a full English and a cuppa. Came to £10.90. Went outside as it was such a nice day and found an empty wooden table with bench seats available, sat down and enjoyed the sunshine and watched children playing on the fort and rocking platform whilst waiting for my breakfast. It wasn't long in coming. A nice full English two eggs, two rashes of bacon, a couple of hash browns, a couple of sausage patties, half a tomato, mushrooms and a couple of slices of toast and butter plus a cup of breakfast tea - should have taken a photo of it but was more focused on eating. Everything was cooked perfectly and tasted great. As I ate a succession of cars appeared and the car park and tables filled with families, Many with young children. Seems I had timed my visit to perfection. I shall certainly be returning.

Hidden in Great Bookham is a charming, warm and quality focused Tea/ Coffee / brunch / lunch / cake … place, that has got the balance perfect. Service, quality , Ambiance and price meet in, what I can only call: perfection. We had brunch, lunch and afternoon tea here and have never been disappointed. The little garden behind the building is a tiny oasis if you want to sit outside.

A beautiful little cafe, serving great food. I had the cajun chicken club sandwich, which was amazing.

Great cafe in the village, have been in several times for warming coffees / hot chocolates in the winter and iced coffees in the summer (and always enjoy their fab cakes!)

This place is an absolute gem, freshly prepared delicious food every time I have visited. You have to try the bailey's cake, it's one of the best cakes I've ever had. When the weather is nice you can sit in the garden area behind the cafe which is lovely.

Absolutely fantastic place for food and drinks. Service staff were incredibly kind and were navigating the tricky terrain with ease. My only critique was that the poppadoms were a little stale but the flavours of the chutneys and the poppadoms itself made this detail pretty negligible and I reckon this was highly likely a one off with the sheer quality of the food produced. With a table of 12 people, everything was handled perfectly (which I know is very difficult to do with large groups coming from a service background myself!) Jo and Ruby have great staff, great food and a gorgeous atmosphere. We brought our own blankets but we were very pleased to find some provided for us after an early autumn chill has come upon us in the last week! Definitely get yourself down to this spot. Good job team 🫶🏻

A 10/10 here! Everything was perfect, the food was divine, the best pilau and paratha I've had in my life, the curry was divine, the setting was out of this world, twinkling lights among meadows and trees, so tranquil. Had the Ruby blush cocktail, which was epic! Everything was wonderful, attention to detail was second to none. This isn't just dinner, it's an experience and one that us utterly flawless. Thank you Jo for a beautiful evening.

On Saturday evening, we visited the Ruby Supper Club for the first time, and it turned out to be one of the best experiences we've had in a long while. The setting was perfect—nestled in a charming little corner adorned with fairy lights. The food was exceptional; compliments to the chef for every course. The staff were incredibly friendly and cheerful, always eager to assist whenever needed. We will definitely be hurrying back at the first opportunity!

One of the best establishments that I’ve been to, it’s unlike any other place that I’ve been to before. It was a Truly magical evening. The ambiance is superb, I highly recommend this restaurant, the food was extraordinary, truly Devine, I can’t quite decide which dish was my favourite as everything that we tried was delicious. The cocktails are amazing!! , The service was fantastic and the staff are very attentive. Our evening was everything that we hoped it would be, had a fantastic night, I Would definitely come back again and I highly recommend to everyone and anyone

First time to this cafè as I was in there area. Very nice cafè with good social distance measures in place. I ordered ham, egg & chips and was nicely surprised to see I got proper ham (thick ham) not the thin ham from the packs. Prices are fair and food is a good standard. Staff are friendly. If your in the area you should pop in.

Really nice breakfast, accommodated 15 of us with ease, had no issue adding another breakfast, or swapping items, all came out within minutes. Just over a tenner each with coffees.

Great bacon sausage and egg baguette and latte coffee. Very welcoming staff and inside space. Missed our bus so a lucky find for mid day stack. Does Burgers and jacket spuds all at reasonable price.

I’ve been a couple of times to this cafe and it’s my absolute favourite!!! The food is bloody lovely and the service is also great! Well worth the money! Highly recommend. Won’t go anywhere else for a breakfast when I want a cooked breakfast! Top notch!

Great little cafe on the town centre. Not a huge menu, but everything is perfect! Lovely attentive and friendly staff! Will be coming back!

Lovely small cafe, quite busy often find there's not enough seating to the amount of customers. However the food standards are brilliant 👏 the staff are welcoming and friendly. Recommended for a nice cuppa and breakfast if you get a chance.

A specialty cafe with a healthy menu, calming décor, wood tables, local merchandise, smiles of the servers. My sausage sarnie came with red onions in it of which its sweetness went well with the pork, the sourdough freshly moist, the meat freshly juicy. My wife's avocado on toast was wholesome but the avocado was cut in halves though garnished with red pepper. I would prefer it being smashed and seasoned.

Excellent place for breakfast, decent portions with quality ingredients for a good price and friendly staff. Even better without the yappy dogs that came in, but don't let that get in the way, this is a great café.

Really good service. The food was great and really reasonably priced.. I'd recommend.

What a lovely cafe and enough choices on the menu, we had 2 large veggie breakfasts and one large English breakfast, service was quick and food delicious 😋 and for dog owners there is a menu for dogs 😁

Great place to go for breakfast, then followed by a nice walk along the amazing wetlands! Parking is great and free. There is loads of room outside including awesome outdoor pods which we used last time. The food is really nice and priced fairly. My personal tip is to arrive just after it opens, or around 9:30 - it’s not very busy then, and has a brilliant atmosphere. The staff are extremely friendly too.

Very good cafe, food is well cooked and presented. We had egg benedict and a full English breakfast. Service is friendly and fast. It does get very busy at peak times.

Brilliant place. Well set out. Very dog friendly. Great staff, great food. It has everything you need even a dog washing station and ice-cream. My dog had a venison chew supplied by them. Ate it so fast only managed to get her picking her lips at the end.

Great atmosphere and food. Good portions and reasonable price. However waitering service could be improved. Used cutlery and plates from previous customers were not cleared before we sat down in the cabin. We had to ask for someone to clear it when we were served our food despite waiters being available to clear it. Cutlery was not provided with the food, so I had to get it myself. The station nearest to us was not kept full, I had to ask for the manager for cutlery and to top it up. Tip for improvement: Waiters to clear tables more efficiently by prioritising tables people are sat at before clearing empty tables.

Fantastic place for cyclists to stop for a cup of coffee and a snack, or a full on brunch. Plenty of seats outside and 2 floors inside. There is a place to park bikes outside, too! Plenty of room all in all and no need to book in advance. Wide selection of cakes, pastries, scones and sandwiches, salads, what have you. Absolutely everything was delicious, and I loved your porridge. Thanks a lot, will definitely be back!

In my opinion one of the most underrated places to get a coffee in Surrey. The head barista really knows his coffee and they have a great selection of cakes. I asked for an espresso but was told it would be more like an aeropress/drip style. I was happy with that as I have one at home. I was recommended strength 6 and have to say it was very tasty. For cake, I had the white chocolate, pistachio loaf which again, was very nice. Service was friendly, fast and informative. Can’t ask for much more. Highly recommend.

Lovely food and coffee in a beautiful old building. Upstairs there are sofas. Be aware that the staircase is a bit steep and there are low beams. We have been here a few times and I would recommend their pancakes. The atmosphere is great however if you go in the winter, make sure you wrap up warm as it is a very old building and the heating isn’t great. In the summer, they do also have a bit of outdoor space. I would definitely recommend.

What an incredible, yet somewhat accidental find! Pinnocks is the most wonderful little cafe in the heart of Ripley. I wanted only to find a quick cup of coffee but what I found was an exquisite beamed ceiling and slate tiled floor, lovely farmhouse tables, a warm and welcoming atmosphere. Beautiful foods, perfect for a light lunch. There’s the gentle hum of conversation, a fresh produce delivery brought through… and what I was offered was not just a cup of coffee…At risk of sounding like a line from Rowan Atkinson in Love Actually…. This is SO much more than a cup of coffee! There are 7 different beans to choose from depending on your ‘roast’ preference. I chose Ethiopian and received a mug… Normally I prefer a cup, (because I’m a fan of delicate drinking!) but this wasn’t a chunky hunk of china. It was plastic and yet it didn’t detract from the coffee taste at all. Absolutely delicious! I cannot think of a better place to escape from the rain and enjoy an hour or so…I might be coming back for tea…

Fantastic place to get food, excellent service, good location, lady serving (Becky) was very friendly and cheerful, excellent hot chocolate with marshmallows and whipped cream.

Fabulous place to go for a snack and a drink. The service is excellent, the staff are so welcoming and kind.

Lunch and afternoon tea both excellent. Fresh food lovely cakes. Friendly and pleasant staff.

Lovely polite staff, and know how to serve .
