The Best Restaurants in Mickleham, Surrey, United Kingdom (2025)

Absolutely fantastic food, if not the best pub food I’ve ever had! Such beautiful views and lovely staff, will definitely come back!!! Wonderful banoffee pie too

This is my sister and I second visit as we couldn't resist making another visit. A real, old, traditional feel to the pub, it is an absolute delight. We have only sampled the calamari (delicious), each time with a side order of chips, but both were very good, and reckon the chips are some of the best we have ever had. Cat's cooking and presentation is superb, and Harvey a charming and solicitous waiter. We can't wait to return.

I couldn’t praise this place enough! The views are stunning, the atmosphere delightful. The food absolutely scrumpy delicious - quite a few vegan options which I appreciated very much! The staff is kind, friendly and helpful. I would have liked to leave a handsome tip, but I didn’t have any sterling pounder only euros (and they only accept tips in cash.) I highly recommend it!

Fantastic views from the lovely terraced beer garden. Friendly, attentive staff. Great beer and food. Well worth a visit.

I had cycled past this pub many times and the setting and look of the place made me want to book a table for food. We were not disappointed. The staff serving us were friendly, efficient and attentive. I had a great pint of Shere drop to start, the meal was delicious and the house red was excellent. If you are looking for a great Surrey pub with a traditional feel this is just right. It has a roaring open fire as you walk in and sells some local Surrey beers. Great value, great food and will definitely be heading back.

Very enjoyable Sunday roast at The Running Horses as a very large group (22!). Beautiful setting, inside and out, and the pub was buzzing when we arrived - very popular venue! The team were very helpful in the run up to our visit and very attentive on the day.

Had a very nice lunch today. We had a bowl of olives to start which were very tasty and the braised venison was delicious. Apple and blackberry crumble with custard was very good although a little too sweet for my taste. Overall a very good meal with excellent service.

I am so glad that my brother in law introduced the Running Horses pub to me and my husband on our visit to Dorking. The food is delicious and the space is beautifully decorated in a vintage British countryside style. The service is lovely and quick. The staff is super friendly and helpful, especially Mo was smiley, chatty and very attentive to details. We had a great lunch and experience at the pub and will definitely be back. Thank you!
