Visited with sister and it was lovely to walk around. Really like the garden layouts, educational building and the tropical greenhouse. Could easily spend the majority of day here.

We went for the Christmas lights Glow event this evening and it was fantastic! So peaceful, fun and beautiful, and very a relaxed feel. Great for just adults or the whole family. Lots of tasty snacks and drinks throughout the one hour walk too. We had hot chocolate, mulled wine and mince pies. Oh and make sure you see the fountain and fire show!

We attended the RHS widely glow walk and it was fabulous. Staff are welcoming and friendly. We ate at the terrace restaurant and service here was friendly and quick. The custard tart dessert and the plum crumble was just delicious! The glow walk was set up nicely and it’s a one way system so easy to follow. No where near as busy as Kew garden and I actually prefer RHS as they had the Christmas tree display with Christmas music. The gift shop is big and lovely to spend time browsing about. Would definitely visit again for the glow or for the garden in the summer.

Recently, we visited this wonderful RHS Garden at Wisley. It is a great place for a day tour with friends and family. We went there by car without any problem and parking is free for visitors. At the very right of the Plant Centre, you will find Garden Centre and at the left you will find a Cafe and shop. The Garden Entrance is between the Toilets and Cafe (very left of the Plant Centre). As we reached there a little bit late 12.30 pm, we could not cover all the areas, so we decided to come again. I would recommend everyone to come early with picnic (because food and drink are very expensive) to cover all the gardens. You will also need a willingness to walk for miles. There are lots of restrooms and cafes, so you can have plenty of opportunities to refresh yourself. After visiting the glasshouse (greenhouse), we visited the playground near the glasshouse and the rock garden. We also liked the Viewing Mount and the surroundings from the top of the mount. I found the water Lily in the pond, which is very exciting and beautiful. We then moved to the Clear Lake through the exotic garden, cottage garden, and horse statue. We really enjoyed the day out and recommended everyone to visit it.

Lots of lights at this annual glow. A few set installation pieces, but mainly coloured lights highlighting all the many trees in the garden and greenhouse. A short fountain and light display at the end. About an hour to walk around. Plenty of opportunities around the path for refreshments.

Friendly, polite and attentive staff. We came here on Sunday and had Sunday roast of lamb leg and beef brump. Taste was amazing.really enjoyed and will recommend this place . Pecan’s tart smells a bit eggy for me but passion fruit cheese cake was tasty.
Rating: 5 / 5
Our first visit since they reopened and we were impressed. A smart modern interior decor, a well tended beer garden, and a new patio area. We had a burger and a sandwich for lunch, which were both very good quality. The only disappointment was that the Shere Drop was off, so we had to opt for Hogs Back Tea, but that was just bad timing. Note the car park is a little small and visibility coming out isn't the best. Recommended.

From the renovation, to the service, to the delicious food- as a local, I feel VERY lucky to have such a fantastic pub on my doorstep. As somebody with a gluten intolerance, I am always skeptical when attending pubs of whether they will be able to cater to my needs. When I first attended for food, I was blown away by what could be adapted to be gluten free and how helpful the staff were with this. I ended up getting the Billy Burger with the blue sauce in the most INCREDIBLE gluten free bun! GF bread can be so hit or miss but they smashed it with this. Last night, when attending the football match (I recommend you go to the Billy to watch, it was fab!!), I ordered the Caesar and it genuinely was the best Caesar salad (gone gluten free) that I have ever eaten. I would definitely recommend this special !! Not only is the food, the building and pub garden fabulous, but the staff are just as amazing. There is nothing too much for them and they always have a smile on their faces. Thank you to everyone at the King William for bringing such a wonderful pub to our village!

We arrived as the light was fading so couldn’t appreciate the outside areas but once through the front door the pub was a typical country pub, log fire blazing and lots of lovely touches. We’d booked to eat but had arrived early. This wasn’t a problem for the staff, we were taken through to the restaurant which was quieter but lacked the charm of the pub. Quite plain really with nothing to catch your eye and make it charming like the pub itself. The service was polite and the food was lovely. I had the burger which was cooked just the way I like it with all the trimmings. By the time we left the building was full, well worth a visit but maybe book ahead.
Rating: 5 / 5
The atmosphere of the pub is very cozy and friendly, true English tradition reigns here. The interior is decorated in a classic style, which gives the place a special charm. When it comes to food and drinks, they are top notch here. The menu offers a wide variety of traditional dishes and everything I tried was delicious and of good quality. The beer is always fresh and there is a large selection of varieties, both local and imported. The pub staff are polite and always ready to help with your choice. Overall, King William IV is a great place. I recommend it to everyone who appreciates good food, excellent beer and a pleasant atmosphere. 😉😋

Rating: 4.6 (2598) Price Level:
I visited this pub/restaurant for a solo business meal. The staff were some of the friendliest, most welcoming restaurant staff I have ever encountered. The lady who I assumed was the manager treated me like a member of her family and could not do enough for me! Grace, who was waiting on my table was very attentive and friendly. The food was amazing. They said I would be back and they were right - I’ll definitely be going back here. The atmosphere was so cosy and welcoming!

Three of us had a late lunch in the garden. Beautiful pub with an excellent outside seating area. Very busy, popular place. I had trout with mashed potatoes and onions. Delicious! Im a pescatarian who does not like fish to look like fish. So what i liked was that it was a trout fillet, with no heads or tails visible. Service was a little slow, however, they were very busy. I would certainly go there again.

Amazing Sunday roast. Roast pork, roast beef, and half a roast chicken all served on a platter with amazing yorkshire puddings. Fresh vegetables stuffing balls and gravy. What more would one want on a Sunday! Top notch food and service! Considering we did not have a booking and they were exceptionally busy, the amazing staff still managed to accommodate us. Thank you so much.

Came to support my family at the Alzheimer's Memory walk today, so we didn't get a chance to visit the whole park. But the areas I did see were lovely and tranquil. Popped in the cafe for a £3.50 latte and it was good, definitely worth the price. Greeted with a smile, by the friendly staff members on site I look forward to coming back, to visit the grotto. I've seen pictures and it looks beautiful.
Rating: 5 / 5
We spent a few wonderful hours exploring this breathtaking spot. The paths are incredibly accessible, making it easy for everyone to enjoy, and each marked viewpoint offers a unique and memorable perspective. The grotto, in particular, has a magical atmosphere that really stands out. Surprisingly, the food here was excellent much better than what you’d usually expect at popular tourist landmarks. Every staff member we encountered was polite and welcoming, with even the youngest team members working hard and adding to the pleasant experience, especially impressive given the busy half-term crowds. I definitely plan to return during the summer and will aim to arrive earlier to make the most of it. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a memorable day out. For those traveling from London, the Southern Line train will take you to Weybridge Station. From there, it’s just a quick walk to Stop D, where you can catch the C1 bus, which will drop you off near the entrance (mention your stop to the driver for added ease). Booking online can also save you a bit on admission.

Went to this place today, was suggested by an Instagram reel. Wow I'm so glad I went, fantastic day out, so clean and peaceful. Really nice and well kept grounds. Best park I have ever been to. The weather was fantastic which made it even better. A great way to escape the city life for a day. The entry fee was worth it in my opinion.
Rating: 5 / 5
Come with plenty of energy to walk, the place is beautiful, with picnic areas... I suggest you go prepared with snacks and water for the walk, smaller children in a stroller... There are some cafes spread along the route too... There are lots of benches and places along the route to sit and rest! We loved the time there!
Rating: 5 / 5
An absolutely gorgeous landscaped garden, well worth the entrance fee. My friend and I went on a gloomy day but it’s still gorgeous. Love that dogs are welcome! I also appreciate the informational placards beside the follies, explaining the history and landscape features. The grotto is particular gorgeous.

I love going here. Great environment and atmosphere but the food doesn’t match up to the price tags, neither do the drinks. No one seems to care as it’s always busy!

Great atmosphere, beautifully decorated. Service was amazing. Went there for my birthday and was offered a lovely desert with a candle. Food portions were good, in terms of taste it was alright. I had the lobster linguine which was ok.

I recently enjoyed a delightful breakfast at The Ivy Cobham Garden. The meal was excellent, and the green juice was particularly refreshing. The staff were attentive and friendly, ensuring a pleasant dining experience. While the restaurant offers private parking, the space is limited and fills up quickly. However, street parking is often available nearby, and there’s a public car park just a five-minute walk away.  The atmosphere is especially charming during the festive season, with a beautifully decorated Christmas tree adding to the cozy ambiance. In warmer weather, the garden seating provides a lovely outdoor dining option. Overall, The Ivy Cobham Garden offers a wonderful dining experience with great food, attentive service, and a pleasant atmosphere.

Although I m not really into English breakfast, the dishes that others from the group got were nice. I tried a nice caramel tart and a wake up juice. Pancakes and granola yoghurt also very good. Price above average, but it is cobham! Very nice and elegant atmosphere in a quiet Sunday morning.

Restaurant was packed on a cold January Friday lunchtime which tells you everything! Service was excellent, friendly and helpful. The food was fabulous, every course!! Have already booked to come back in a few weeks for a Sunday lunch. Highly recommend!
Rating: 4 / 5
Lovely pub with a nice atmosphere. I had a 3 course Sunday lunch. Roast beef was fantastic as was the chocolate brownie. However the prawn cocktail starter was very disappointing, not many prawns or sauce. Great service.
Rating: 5 / 5
Called in on off chance as local restaurant we had booked had let us down and was closed. The Staff at The Old Plough were SO accommodating. From the person at restaurant entrance/maitre 'd'..the chef regarding my friends Nitrate allergy and the waitress was a cheerful delight. Service and food superb 👌 Absolutley can recommend and will def return. I had the fish sharing plate as a main and my friends had the salmon.. The chef made her a garlic butter sauce as she couldent have the mayo that came with the dish... Could not fault anything about our lunch and the staff 😋

This place is fantastic, Very clean, easy parking, Clean Toilets, super friendly Staff and with “Good Food” as well. It was so good “we went twice”, so we could try what we didn’t have the night before. This place should have a “6 Star Rating” it’s that good.

Excellent on every level. Food was amazing, the service was fun but unobtrusive and the building is amazing and seems much older than 1890 when it was (apparently built). The Beef Wellington is amazing and my whole group all enjoyed their meals. The price is according to the quality.

First time visiting after wanting to for years! Really enjoyed our meal. Great, friendly service and food. Really liked the extensive menu and especially the dessert trolley! Looking forward to returning.
Rating: 5 / 5
My partner and I had such a wonderful experience. The food was incredible, extremely accommodating if you need to change something from your choice of food. Service was 10/10 and the waiters have a great sense of humour! Perfect, quaint little spot! We will be returning :)
Rating: 5 / 5
We went for dinner and were very impressed with the experience. The restaurant itself is somewhat dated, but that’s not a criticism, it’s like walking back in time and the level of service reflects that. The waiters and all staff we dealt with were very kind and entertaining. The food, well, the food was sublime! I would recommend to anyone and we will be returning in a few weeks to try some other items on the menu! Fresh bread and butter on arrival was a nice touch, especially because the bread rolls were shaped like tiny loafs which was a nice touch!
Rating: 5 / 5
We found this place thanks to Google map reviews so I am returning the favour by adding a review. As others have said, the decor is dated but the food is delicious and the service quality is top notch. I loved the dessert trolley. Our waiter Mark was excellent. I will definitely be returning and will bring friends and family.

We went for the first today 5 Jan 2025, recommend by a friend who lives in Ripley. She advised us to book and she was right! It’s a while since we’ve had a full-on Sunday lunch so it was a bit of a treat. One person had the roast beef, another the lamb, and I had salmon. All good with portions of Yorkshire pudding, roast potatoes, roast vegetables, brussel sprout mash, and sensational cauliflower cheese, plus gravy. A tasty zero beer called ‘Little Swine’ from Hogs Back Brewery which deserves wider distribution. Followed by bread and butter pudding and chocolate fondant both with ice cream. And coffees and tea. We added a generous tip for the attentive and friendly service. All up £50 a head which is good value. Didn’t have time to shop but a glance round says they’ve got delicious deli.

Went for breakfast for my husband’s birthday. Lovely place, friendly service and excellent food. We had a scrambled egg and bacon and a full English - both delicious and as good as we’ve had anywhere. All the ingredients were of the best quality and well cooked. Delicious coffee. The decor is tasteful and for a Tuesday morning it had a nice buzz about the place. We will be back!

First time at Ockham Bites and briefly the only person there, but very friendly staff, excellent sausage & bacon baguette and (despite the very close and huge roadworks) a very nice place to stop for a bite. Very dog friendly and looks to be lots of good walks for those taking their four legged friends. Will definitely be returning soon.

Came here for lunch with my Mrs and have to say it’s one of the best roast dinners around by far! Best I’ve had in a while. We were served by a lovely young man named Christian and the service was second to none too if the food alone wasn’t great enough. I would highly recommend the seven stars to anyone looking for a nice spot of lunch.

Delicious Sunday roast! You can have a full portion or a small plate - you can choose your roast or have a mixed roast. All the trimmings with lashings of gravy. Absolutely mouth watering good!!!! Staff incredible too

We have driven past The Seven Stars a few times on our way to Ripley and we finally headed over for a Friday night meal - and we loved it! Super warm and cosy atmosphere with a happy greeting as we entered. All the staff were really attentive and friendly, and the food was LUSH! Generous portions and cooked perfectly - we just need to eat less during the day to squeeze in a dessert next time as they sounded delicious - we have a new favourite local pub to visit and a menu that has so many options to keep us going back :) thanks for a lovely evening team Seven Stars !

We tried the seven stars for breakfast this morning and it’s the best one we have had out! Sausages and bacon were delicious - everything was and some of our friends had the Avocado and poached eggs on toast and said it was excellent. We usually come for Sunday lunch but LOVED our breakfast and will be returning! Thanks to the staff too - always so friendly!
