What a wonderful find this lovely little cafe is! Visited today with friends and we’re so pleased we did. The food is excellent but the prices are extremely competitive... £4.95 for my jacket potato with cheese, beans and crispy bacon - also comes with a side salad which I thought was very good value indeed. Service was super quick, all of the staff were lovely, welcoming and friendly and the cafe is spotlessly clean inside. If the weather is on your side and you want to dine outside, there’s also a beautiful lawned area with lots of tables and chairs so we will definitely be coming back again. Would highly recommend if you’re in the area!

We stopped off here on our way to the Top Gear airstrip / racetrack and, after my partner's initial misgivings as we drove on to the business park, we were very pleasantly surprised. It's clearly popular, both with people who work in the various offices close by and people who live I the surrounding area, and it's easy to see why. The layout is reminiscent of some English railway station cafés, with a functional counter at one end, next to a fridge with soft drinks, confectionery and food, but that's where the similarity ends because the staff are all very friendly and the food is lovely 😀 We had a falafel and houmous wrap, a cajun chicken salad, and a bag of ham and mustard crisps that had quite an impressive kick in places! We went on our way very glad we'd stopped off, and would definitely call in again.

Such a wonderful cafe to visit. Amazing value for money and you're welcomed by very friendly staff. The food is great! Amazing quality sausages and bacon. The place was so clean. There's also loads of space around tables for buggies and wheelchairs. I shall be returning frequently!

Love it here. A group of 25 of us booked an area for morning coffee. They made sure we all had whatever drinks and cake we wanted. We all had a ticket we could add to and paid when we left. Well done, Pavilion staff - we'll be back.

Pinnock's

Pinnocks, High St, Ripley, Woking GU23 6AF, UK | Coffee Shop

Rating: 4.7 (778) Price Level:

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.

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!

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…

Amazing place , amazing staff and I love coming here. Have been there before as well. This time reached after 3 pm so food options were limited . So we tried hot chocolate and scones and loved both. Fruit Scone was really really nice. Next time I will try the cheese scone :)

Stopped here on a charity cycle ride from London to Poole. What an amazing pitstop for 15 minutes. Internally, the cafe is incredibly cosy, with a quintessential English feel to it, in a quiet, bucolic setting. When it comes to cakes, they offer all the classics, and by the taste of the granola bar I ordered, I reckon they have the recipes bang on. I also noticed a wide selection of teas, which I will have to try next time. Definitely worth stopping by if you are in the area and “gasping for that cuppa!”

Such a great coffee shop. My husband is a coffee snob and highly recommends the authentic and variety of coffee here. The people were very friendly as well. Only lost a star because there really isn't any seating (I understand it is limited to their space) but great idea to have two ordering stations to keep the shop from overcrowding. Wish there was one closer to us!

Amazing little hole in the wall. Tasty coffee but it’s their incredible toasted sandwiches that stole the show. I would go as far as to say… best toastie I’ve ever had! (P.S. my pic does it zero justice.)

There’s a charming café in my area that I’ve been visiting for several years now, and every time I go, it brings me so much joy. It’s not just a place to enjoy a good cup of coffee; it’s a space where friendships are made and cherished moments with loved ones take shape. They offer a small selection of delicious snacks—simple yet incredibly tasty. As for the coffee, I always like mine prepared a little differently than most, and they never fail to deliver an amazing taste every time. What truly makes this café special is the friendly and welcoming team. Today, in particular, I was impressed by Bogdan, a kind Ukrainian barista who has been working here for a while. His warm service and attention to detail finally inspired me to leave a well-deserved positive review and write a few kind words about this wonderful place. You guys are doing an outstanding job, and I wholeheartedly recommend this café to anyone looking for a cozy spot with great service. Wishing you all continued success—keep up the fantastic work!

We had a great experience here for breakfast. The BBQ beans and avocado on toasts options were tasty and filling, the coffee was flavourful, and the staff were friendly and accommodating. We had a 9 month old with us and they helped by serving us at the table and interacting with our baby. The pantry items to buy might be a bit on the pricey side, but they look to not include and preservatives or E numbers. Overall we would come here again!

Perran rates pastries: Roost Godalming Coffee: 4/5 - Great foam and great tasting coffee. Nothing special but would definitely go back again to try more! Pastry: 5/5 - There were some nerves about the carrot cake due to the price and hoping it would be good but it really did not disappoint. Best carrot cake I’ve had in a very long time. The new standard of carrot cake. It was moist, flavoursome and a great portion! Spennyness: 4/5 - £2.50 for an espresso which is good for British prices and £3.30 for a flat white which isn’t awful but the carrot cake was £4 and it was really good so you didn’t mind too much but it isn’t cheap! Overall I’d definitely go back. All the staff were happy, accommodating and friendly!

I'm not a regular here (or to any similar place) but they've not been phased by my gluten free requirements and treated me as though I matter. They serve an excellent bacon bap (or sandwich). Their coffee is excellent: there's nowhere to hide with a black Americano! I love the atmosphere here.

Great coffee spot to have in Godalming! I regularly come here to do some laptop admin and enjoy a lovely coffee that is always expertly made by the barista. It’s also a good place to come for brunch/lunch as the selection is large! I particularly like the variety of specials that change with the seasons and that it is a very dog friendly place! The staff are always super friendly, and for a chain, it’s lovely to have regular baristas that remembers you. My only ask would be that there was an option to add a tip via the card machine, currently only cash tips are accepted.

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.

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!

Good coffee and tea, lovely food especially the baked eggs and avocado on toast, nice cakes but not the best as some are a bit dry and if I'm honest tasteless but there are some that are absolutely delicious. It's a good cafe, probably the best in the high street the only problem is the prices, it's just not that good to command the prices they do and it stops it being an every morning stop. I will be stopping in here every now and again though.
