I stopped here for a romantic meal with my partner. The atmosphere was fantastic - Traditional pub meets unpretentious luxury. The location was stunning, we ate on the bank of the river with the gentle sound of flowing water in the background. The service was prompt, friendly and competent. BUT THE FOOD!.. was truly excellent! We shared the 22oz steak and I can honestly say it was one of the best steaks either of us had ever had. This is a wonderful place to enjoy a special night out or just a relaxing Saturday afternoon with friends. Maximum stars from me 🌟

Me and my partner went for winter wonderland dinner last night to celebrate my birthday and we had a great time. The food was scrumptious and the staff were super friendly and attentive. We loved the restaurant, warm evening with roaring fire on.

Wonderful Sunday lunch with friends. Roasts were delicious and service was top notch. Especially loved the crumble. would have liked a bit more custard however, I asked for more and it wasn't a problem, the very friendly manager brought some over, We will definitely be returning.

Little scenic spots on the riverside over this old mill. Warm hut with cover seating available, with complimentary blankets and above heaters for chilly nights, small bar inside with all the favourite and popular spirits and some exclusive brands unseen anywhere else. The stag, always features a top notch menu , when passing through the south east we always pop by as we love and enjoy everything the stag offer and the staff are always so kind and welcoming. They also have limited luxury rooms however we have never stayed.

I was part of a group of 19 that dinned here the evening before my sisters wedding. The staff were lovely and professional. The service was good and the food arrived quickly, despite the amount of people. Everyone enjoyed their food! Great vegetarian and vegan options.

The food is incredible and can’t escape noticing this entire restaurant is literally gleaming. To an OCD standard pretty much absolutely incredible atmosphere and charm and quaintness. Very busy and it’s only mid week. So well kept a lot of charm perfect sort of location to propose even the passion for the job and food is evident and I’m working in hospitality myself it would be a dream to end up working here one day tucked down a more residential street you get the privacy vibes before you even step in the door.

Building is lovely and felt warm, inviting. The service was a bit on the slow side but they were pleasant enough. The food was nice but I wouldn't say it's particularly special. If you are looking for a lunch time treat then go for it.

Stopped en route to London for a quick meal and had the most fantastic experience at this pub. We were greeted by Dave who couldn't have done more to make our two children feel more welcome. The children's menu was the best they have ever seen, and high praise from our youngest who said it was the best beef burger she has ever had. As well as the usual kids meals they offer much more variety like ribs or steak, all for £10 inc dessert. Outside is a huge play park. Location is perfect if your passing, less than a minute detour from the A3. Highly recommend this pub, and I would suggest to the management that Dave should have a pay rise!

My family attended a table for the Boxing day festive menu at Heaven's kitchen. We were all very impressed with the level of customer service. Our waiter was attentive, efficient and also had a great humor and made us laugh. The food was delicious!! Fabulous dishes and the price was extremely reasonable. It was most of our first time visiting here and we will definitely be back.

Coffee #1 is a great place to get coffees, sandwiches and cakes. It has plenty of table space, welcomes dogs and has a good atmosphere. Service can be a little slow but it's worth the wait. Staff are friendly and it always feels like a treat to go in and have a treat. There is a good selection of sandwiches and cakes, all good quality and tasty. One of the best cafes in Godalming.

I love the coffee and hot drinks here but have not been impressed with the cakes. They have either been left out too long or not stored correctly as they have been stale on more than two occasions. I won't bother again.

Food and atmosphere all ok, as you would expect from a up market chain of restaurants. The staff can make or break a premises and the tall barman, I think his name was Tom certainly helps make the Seahorse a place to return to, professional, attentive and very likeable. On a separate note my wife and daughter were more taken with how good looking he was. Many thanks to all for a very pleasant and enjoyable experience.

A tasteful older building with pleasant decor and lighting, and a garden, just outside Guildford on the main road through Shalford. Friendly and helpful staff, though our table was behind a wall, and e found it hard to get their attention at first! Lovely pizza, and a pleasant healthy panzanella salad, though the salad could have been better presented maybe. The main thing I liked was the sense of humour of the staff. And the music was set just right, and not too obtrusive. I visit every few years. Maybe a little bit of decoration necessary to bring the place up to scratch. But generally nice and relaxed, and fairly stylish.

Absolute lovely dining experience. We were served by a young chap with curly hair called Lewis who was very attentive and made sure we were always catered for👍. All the food was delicious so really do try as much as you can. Everytime I think “heavens above” as us old folk like to say, when in fact it's right in front of me on that plate.

We had lunch as a large extended family group. The service was excellent and could not have been better. All of the food was delicious and well presented, apart from one main dish that was not great. However, when we informed the staff member who served us, they immediately offered to replace it or give us a free dessert, in the end the cost of the meal was removed from our bill. Overall the dining experience was wonderful, the food was tasty and well presented and the staff were great. We will definitely return and I would definitely recommend The Seahorse.

Lovely pub-restaurant for meeting up with friends and family. Appealing menu. Great atmosphere and although the place was completely full with big parties, food and drinks were served promptly. We had an issue with one of the dishes which was resolved well. Cosy in winter and outside space for summer days. Some areas could do with a lick of paint (doors to loos)

Driven past loads of times but never been in before. Pleasantly surprised. It is deceiving big inside with a separate restaurant and bar area. A beautiful garden with pod like structures which must be lovely to use in the summer. It a cold February day so we cozy up in the bar area. Lots of little areas with comfy chairs for just drinks or tables and chairs carefully placed in windows and not too close to other tables. We chose to eat in the bar, the only downside was you had to order yourself at the bar. The bar area was lovely and quiet with a fire roaring in the hearth. A lovely bubbly older lady saw to us and settled us at a window table. She really did add to the ambiance of the place. The service, price and food was really good. We opted for the two course lunch menu and it was really tasty, hot and well presented. In hindsight we chose the bar area to dine and we were pleased with our choice. When we left the restaurant was incredibly busy and the noise levels were certainly higher than the tranquility of our table in the bar. Would we come again? Most definitely.

A nice little garden at the back, perfect over the hot weekend - it wasn’t very busy. Coffee and the smoothie arrived quite quickly, food took ages. Avo on toast was delicious, can’t say the same about the taco salad.

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!

Couldn't fault this venue for quality, service or atmosphere. An absolutely fantastic meal, with high quality friendly service. Dog friendly too. The landlord was warm friendly and welcoming. The food was excellent, and reasonably priced too. What a shame we are only in the area for a few hours or we would certainly return. Thank you.

Staff at the café today, in Godalming Caffè Nero (4th December, 4pm) were extremely friendly and accommodating. Could not praise them more for their great efforts; I was struggling with my newborn, trying to feed, etc, and they were so helpful trying to sort me out too! Noemi is great as always but in particular Dom who despite serving other customers, would check up on us in between serving to ensure we were ok. Thank you guys!

Sam is fantastic!! He is friendly and professional, and makes every visit memorable! He recommended the Brazil single origin, which I love, as well as the winter blend earlier this year, both delicious coffees!

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.
