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

Cafe with quite a large garden area (partially covered - they have a heated yurt!) which is well done up and nice to sit in. Good selection of cakes and drinks with table service. A bit pricey though!

Lovely dog friendly cafe in a beautiful village with lots of outdoor seating. The staff were all very friendly and accommodating. They have a good selection of lunch options. The only critique we would make is that the coffee and walnut cake had little to no coffee in it. But lunch was delicious.

Had a lovely breakfast at the dabbling duck. The staff were all very friendly and service and food could not be faulted. There was only one fly in the ointment. We sat inside the cafe as did a lot of dog owners. My friend has allergies and is a bit wary of dogs so it was a bit off putting to her. They were also all a bit over excited and ‘talking’ to each other which made it hard for us to converse. I’ve no objection to well behaved dogs but not everyone feels the same for various reasons and they are not necessarily just being intolerant. The Dabbling Duck has a large heated marquee outside as well as covered heated outdoor seating. Would it not be a good compromise to welcome dogs only to these areas and keep the small inside seating area pet free. Other than that small niggle it was a lovely brunch before a bracing walk in beautiful countryside surrounding Shere.

First time came and amazing village… we had latte and duck (which is full)breakfast which was very delicious. What amazed me was the breakfast was hot till half way through as I ate slowly… lol. Anyw, that was super tasty for me. The whole experience was lovely and we planned to come back again some time in the near future.

Me and my wife were in the surroundings looking for a good place to have lunch and we found this perfect place! We had eggs royal and eggs Benedict with two fruit & veg smoothies, everything was delicious! Staff is super friendly and the space looks very well decorated which makes you feel at home! 100% recommended even if your not in the area!

In Horsell for a wedding but needed a good breakfast to set us up for the day. Well, the Horsell Kitchen did not disappoint! The black pudding Benedict was absolutely delicious and the decaf coffee was perfect. Highly recommend this place.

Amazing brunch - great food and the service was so pleasant and polite. I really enjoyed the loaded hash browns! Definitely recommend The Horsell Kitchen.

Wow! What a charming place to eat. Beautiful decor , Attentive staff, a mouthwatering menu, food cooked and served with love and care . Special thanks to the chef , the food was excellent, very tasty, great quality ingredients and piping hot. Coffee was wonderful too. I wish I lived in the area as I’d become a regular here . I had the full english ( 2 sausages , 2 bacon, fried egg,, black pudding, 3 hash browns , baked beans grilled tomato plus toast ) but was greedy and had a sausage ( 3 sausages) brioche bap afterwards , I recommend both, my wife had the smaller breakfast which was equally as nice . Great value for money !!!

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.

We came here for lunch after a walk around Horsell common. My parents have been here multiple times, but this was my first visit and I will definitely be returning. I have coeliac disease, but they advised that the allergens could be found online and that they had gluten free bread and buns to substitute. They also confirmed the chips are fried separate so are safe to eat. Food was delicious and reasonably priced, plenty of choice. They also have a dog menu, which is a nice touch.

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.

Great coffee shop hidden in one of the tranquil narrow path ways of Guildford high Street. Great food served in a very tiny setting which gave us a little bit of a squashed feeling. But in general it was a fantastic experience, gorgeous coffee and a lovely Mother's day treat.

- Variety of coffee options, including café Americano, milkway latte, and Irish frappe mocha. - Hazelnut truffle latte was too sweet for my taste. - Menu offers classic English breakfast, waffles, and avocado toast. - Gluten-free options available. - Lovely and cosy decoration. - Sad that Pets not allowed inside the coffee shop 😔

Amazing customer service, very nice basque cheese cake

We had a lovely Welsh Rarebit for lunch and I requested a slice of cheese and onion quiche to take away. Both were wonderful and it was nice they provided a salad and coleslaw with the takeaway quiche. Friendly staff too.

Foods and drinks are good and served in big portion. I was enjoyed with those tasty dishes with smiling staff.

Absolutely first class scones and cakes - best scones I have ever bought! In the wonderful weather it was a pleasure eating out. Shame about the take-away staff stopping service as they were falling behind with service indoors and treating customers as a nuisance…telling them it was going to take ages and not to ask for progress after waiting patiently for 10 minutes….twice!

We only used the cafe and toilets as we were walking on Saturday. It was busy so had to be outside in the rare sunshine we all had a sandwich and coffee. On of the group said her hummus and veg sandwich on granary, “was the best sandwich out ever “ !! My sandwich and coffee was delicious too! The service for takeaway was fast. Thank you

It has to be one of my favourite places to go for a lovely morning breakfast. The food is amazing 🤩 and the coffee is always hot. Today, I’ve tried the smoked salmon with scrambled eggs on a sourdough bread. Delicious !!! 😋😋 I had a lovely coffee and an orange juice, the perfect combination for a busy day. 💪💪💪💪The menu is full of delicious dishes. You can also have coffee, tea, hot chocolate, juices, and milkshakes. The place is warm and welcoming. It’s a dog friendly restaurant with lots of space inside and outside. There is a pet shop just around the corner in case you need a treat for your little pet. Plenty of parking 🤭 … a real bonus. Will be back soon 😅.

Wonderful village restaurant. Highly recommend the breakfast. Great choice and good prices. Very friendly staff

What a fab find. Randomly came across this when looking for breakfast. Did not expect such a quaint cafe in such beautiful surroundings. The cafe has a lot of options, comfort breakfast to healthy breakfasts. We sat outside, overlooking an old golf course which now has free roaming sheep! The cafe is dog friendly too and I think makes a great visit for all ages. Very impressed with this place. Look forward to going back

A table was booked at Rokers cafe for 12.30 on a Friday. Quite a busy time. We arrived ahead of schedule and were greeted warmly by all the staff. There were already several tables well into their meals, and we were shown to ours by smiling and professional wait staff. The orders were taken promptly and efficiently. We were not hassled, but the staff were available to get the attention for extra drinks or desert menus. It was quite noisy with general customer conversations going on, but that is to be expected when busy. The plates were pretty, stylish, and of good quality and size, and we were very impressed with the quality of the food when it arrived. The pork belly was very well cooked. The all-day breakfast was massive, and the chicken burger was one of the best ever. Juicy fillet, well seasoned, and even the side salad was crisp with interesting leaves. Although it took a little longer to get desert, we were informed that it would before ordering. (It didn't matter) the ice creams were good portion sizes and the Eaton mess was great to finish off. All told a very high level of quality product and service, over and above what one would expect. Would happily go again and would also recommend to others.

It's a long time since I was driving west on the A31 on a weekday so very pleased to call in for brunch. Ordered egg, chips and beans. Good size portion, well cooked, great chips, all very good. Washed it down with a Cappacino which was maybe a tad more bitter than one might usually expect - but it actually complemented the food just nicely. Friendly service and it's a nice place to sit. Sadly I only have one more A31 trip in the foreseeable future but will make a point of visiting again.

Just as your leaving Guildford on to the gigs back dual carriageway, there’s a left hand lay-by for parking & the cafe building hidden down the slope. I only noticed it from a home made “cafe” sign that caught my eye. Feels like an independent family run cafe friendly staff and a good grub stop. Breakfasts are decent and the tea and coffee mugs welcoming. Yes I’d drop by here again. Good place if you need a bit of a rest break from driving.

Honestly, the best breakfast we have had in a long time. Hot tasty and such good value. Friendly staff next time we come back home to the Uk we will be there. Oh and all set in such a beautiful garden. Thanks. 2nd review 2 years on. Had an amazing breakfast this morning as good as ever, friendly staff and great value. I had a small breakfast this time but you would never have thought it was small. Delicious and great choice. See you next time 😊

Food was great, staff was friendly, prices were reasonable. toilets could have been cleaner but only one person appeared to be working. A nice place off the hogs back to stop for lunch.

We stopped at this spot after a long flight and it was just what we needed. It should be on Diners Drive-Ins and Dives - not a fancy place, but good food, good service for a good price. So if this is what you are looking for (see photo below) this is the place.

I ordered on Deliveroo from here as we don’t have a kitchen due to renovations. The food was packaged very very well and it was still piping hot on arrival. Delicious.

Best fry-up I've had for ages - decent ingredients perfectly cooked, with friendly service. And the majestic sauté potatoes should be mandatory on a fry-up... A far superior potato product to the tasteless, cardboard triangles of misery that have become the norm. Top marks.

Had a great fry up here on a Saturday morning. Sadly it was so good I didn’t get a picture in time. Great value, cooked fresh to order. Definitely will come back.

First time we had a fantastic brunch today. Fresh and delicious. The staff is very friendly . It way to early to try the Hungarian goulash but definetely come back shortly . Thank you so much 🙏🇭🇺

A popular cafe which offers takeaway and eat in. We had sandwiches and tea. The sandwiches were made to order, with plenty of filling 😋. My husband used the facilities, he said was clean, but downstairs. I'm not sure if there's a disabled toilet that is on the same level as the cafe. Staff were polite, and we didn't have to wait long to be served. We called in at lunchtime.

Lovely little spot in the sunshine (when it's out!).... Always a great breakfast to be had there!
