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

Absolute gem, food was amazing, staff amazing. Quick service. Child friendly, can't wait to go back. All sushi was fresh and tasty, tempura moreish, don buri amazing our 6 year old ate it and she can be picky! Chicken teriyaki also great.

Our 1st visit to this establishment in Oxted on 29/12/2024 & what a delight it was. We were seated in upper seating area overlooking the restaurant & it soon filled up. We decided to choose from the Sunday menu on our 1st venture into Japanese cuisine. My wife started with KaisenTempura, mixed fish & vegetables, & I with Chicken Karaage, fried chicken, both with delicious chilli miso sauce. I then had Donburi Chasu Don, Pork Belly with steamed white rice, spring onions, white sesame seeds, pickled ginger & separate miso soup. My wife had Ramen Kubota Shoyu, grilled chicken thighs with seaweed, spring onions, soya based broth & fine noodles. Both our starter & main were lovely & full of flavour. Along with the Red Grenache my wife had & Kirin Beer added to an absolutely lovely meal. We will certainly be returning soon.

Elegant and stylish setting, we had a comfortable and well positioned table with plenty of space. Beautiful attention to detail and a very warm welcome from the team. Smiling and charming service. Food was absolutely delicious: soft shell crab, sushi, grilled meats all a highlight. I loved the wide choice of sake by the glass: get stuck in an experiment. I had 3 and they were all tasty and matched with the food perfectly. Good coffee and my husband loved his wee ice cream cone to finish. Excellent: I only wish this was in our neighbourhood. Lucky Oxted.

The best meal I’ve had ever. Me and my partner love sushi and Japanese food, and this place was the best place I’ve ever been. The place is beautiful and clean, the food was fresh and the cocktails were insane. The atmosphere was also amazing even at 6pm. Our waitress, shay, elevated our meal. She was amazing, warm and some of the best service I’ve ever had. Will be returning again and again. Highly recommend.

Very very good food indeed. Thoroughly enjoyed ourselves here. Fantastic pizza and pasta selection. Very friendly staff, especially towards children! Only reason for the lower points is that the baby changing is in the female toilets. 21st century!! This needs to change!! What if I was out alone with the children! Doesn’t take American Express, has high chairs. Delicious food.

Cucina in Oxted is fantastic! The food is absolutely 10/10—full of flavor and beautifully presented. The service is just as impressive, with friendly and attentive staff who make you feel right at home. A perfect spot for a memorable meal—highly recommend!

We went to Gucina on Saturday afternoon for a late lunch after swimming. Although we had no prior reservation the staff were lovely and polite and we were sat promptly. It was pretty busy so definitely recommend to book ahead of time. The menu is rich with starters, pasta, pizzas and more and they have a children’s menu, too. My partner ordered the vegan pasta, I had margarita pizza and our little one had tomato sauce spaghetti. It was all delicious and very authentic. There are a few vegan options, but it’d be great to see a few more plant based meals. We’ll definitely come back again.

Great food and generous portions. The restaurant was superbusy yet service was good and friendly. Very fair prices

Me and my partner were recommended Cattle & Cocktails by a family friend. I can honestly say I’ve never had such a pleasant experience when going out for a meal. It was line and my partners 7 year anniversary - and were welcomed with a glass of bubbly to celebrate the occasion. We were here on a Wednesday so we could take advantage of the £20pp deal they had on, adding a bottle of wine to the meal. The steak frittes were fantastic, and the steak was cooked to perfection. One of the better meals I’ve had in a long time, and I won’t hesitate to come back or recommend to other friends and family.

Had the most lovely, tasty dinner here last night. My fillet steak was cooked to perfection. Very attentive staff, calm and peaceful atmosphere (seated to the front) will definitely be returning

What a great place. The decor is really Good and well set out. The staff are really friendly and helpful. Great place for a drink with some amazing cocktails. And good wine selection. The food was really good. I had seafood risotto and my wife the mushroom truffle risotto. Next time, I have to try the steaks. My daughter had kids' pasta, which was really tasty. You could easily spend a whole evening in this amazing venue.

Our first visit to the Cattle & Cocktail for a date night. We were met by the manager as we entered who showed us to our table. He was very welcoming and hospitable. Our waitress was over to us within a couple of minutes to take our drinks orders and we also ordered olives and halloumi bites with chili jam as an appertizer. When they were brought to us we ordered scallops and king prawns for starters and for the mains salmon and the large rib eye steak. The scallops and prawns were very tasty and well presented on the plates. The salmon was presented on a bed of mash potato served with fine green beans. The rib eye was a bit over done for me. I asked for medium rare and it came a touch over cooked. However the steak was well seasoned and a good size. The only other issue with the steak is that I had to order chips as a side to have with it. At £36 for a steak I would expect chips to come with it. I have had better steaks for less money when eating out. Looking at the red wine list, there are only certain wines that you can have a glass of. I wanted a glass of Argentinian Malbec but it was only served as a bottle. The total bill was just over £155 for 2 people with 3 cocktails and 2 Peronis so although this is a nice restaurant with lovely staff it is overpriced and expensive. Would I go back? I would for a special occassion but for a general eating out experience there are more reasonable priced restaurants around the area of Oxted.

I cannot recommend Pan & Vino enough. The food was speedily served with a smile and beautifully presented too. Everything we ate was full of flavour, absolutely delicious. My personal faves from the menu were the Argentinian steak, the prawns and the mushrooms. I must make a special mention about the deserts though cos I would wager that these are "the best" desserts served in Oxted at the moment. The decor is lovely in addition to the ambient chillout soundtrack playing in the background, it all made for a great impromptu meal out. The prices are fair for Oxted, the drinks looked lovely (I didn't partake, as I drove...but I will definitely be going back to try) You must try this place...I highly doubt you will be disappointed.

Stumbled upon what can only be described as a gem of a place. Friendly Spanish hosting from Sergio and his team. The food let's just say phenomenal and outstanding sum it up will be back for sure.

Great food, friendly service and nice ambience. Well recommended.

I’m so impressed! Had a lovely meal the Croquetas were to die for. Actually everything I ate was delicious baby quid, chicken in Spanish spices and the lightly fried aubergine and the fresh Tortilla. Georgie my server was so helpful suggesting wine and dishes. It’s a YES from me.

This place was a hit for our family. They had great service. Friendly server. Food took a few minutes longer than typical because they were surprised by a busier night than expected but the server told us and apologized before I noticed which is a big win in my book. They even tried to make me a martini I like from the States. The fish and chips were the best I’ve had. They fried it perfectly. Phenomenal. My daughter loved her pasta, the swingset, and the tractor. They even have a dog menu here! Great place to visit.

Had a great evening for my wife's birthday food was superb waitress was great, one of our guests was gluten free/vegetarian and they made a menu especially for her. (lovely touch) We will definitely be back.

We both find it's always a pleasure to go here & yesterday was no exception. The restaurant still had a lovely festive Christmassy atmosphere, excellent service, great menu choices & delicious food (the Chestnut Gnocchi, Fish & Venison were all fabulous). But, the icing on the cake was when my dessert arrived, decorated with a candle and the staff stood by our table & sang Happy Birthday to me!!

My 1st time going here and 5 stars isn’t enough. Khan really looked after my friend and myself. The food was so fresh and the quality was outstanding. The service was exception. We always had what we needed without being bombarded. The atmosphere is perfect with great music playing without it being too much! We will be back! Thanks so much!!

Really nice atmosphere, great service and excellent food. Caterham needed a grill place like this. It's also not too expensive, which makes it a winner. Great place to bring family and friends for a nice meal. Their orange juice was fresh as well. I really liked the decor and colour scheme.

Khan was a lovely server and even gave us a drink for our birthday. He was very lovely and welcoming as well as the other staff. The food was great, reasonable prices and well presented, I do highly recommend and will be back 🥰

I ordered Chicken Grill and garlic bread the food was freshly made and glorious . Manager Khan was amazing with customer service and took time to tour me around the restaurant and explained how their food is being made.

Really lovely restaurant. Went for buffet but you also have option to order separately from larger menu if you dont want to go for buffet option. The staff were excellent very nice and attentive and the food was delicious and very good value for money. They also give the most amazing prawn crackers as soon as you sit down. Restaurant also very clean. Highly recommend this place and would come back.

We had a fantastic experience at Gurkha Kitchen! We reserved a private dining area for our Christmas party with around 30 colleagues , and it was absolutely perfect. The space provided us with privacy, and we loved being able to play our own music. The atmosphere was delightful. The food was delicious, and the portion sizes were generous. Overall, it was a wonderful experience!

Really tasty food and helpful waiters that helped us choose as we had not eaten Nepalese food before. The Lamb dish was so tender the meat fell apart, and prawn dish was also so tasty.

Came here after a long hike and was pleasantly surprised that there was a Sunday buffet available. We had the lamb momo as a starter and then tried all the dishes from the buffet. All were really tasty although for personal taste I would have liked them to be a bit spicier. The service was professional and polite. Highly recommend it if you are in the area.

Wonderful pub in Oxted. Smiley staff, beautiful location and child friendly. I had fish and chips and it was such a delicious batter. I took a picture after I started as it looked mouth watering.

Lovely food (my 10yr old son started eating the "delicious" ice cream stuffed pancake before I could take the pic 😆), excellent portion of Sunday roast with good selection of well cooked veg. Nice sized kids portion, he still had room for garlic bread and an adult sized pud!! 13yr old enjoyed cooking his own steak to his liking (meal adjusted for his dairy allergy no problem) and he loved the dairy free chocolate cake dessert, good sized portion too. My creme brulée was also excellent. Good value, good service, good atmosphere. Will happily return, thank you!!

Our 4th midweek winter lunch in 3 years. Hopefully there will be many more. We drive 30 miles to make the visit and it is definitely worth the hour travel time (one way). An early lunch slot avoids a well occupied car park. Same manager since our first lunch. Confident, well mannered and attentive. Booking a table in advance is worthwhile.

We had an absolutely wonderful experience from start to finish. My family and I celebrated Christmas lunch here, and everything exceeded our expectations. The staff were incredibly accommodating, the food was exceptional, and the portion sizes were generous. The atmosphere was warm and inviting, making it a perfect setting for our gathering. With a party of 18, we were all thoroughly impressed by the outstanding service. A big thank you to the entire team for working so hard on Christmas Day. We will definitely be back!

Absolutely amazing food. I have been so many times over the last couple years and I have had no issues. The staff are so friendly and helpful when you ask them about the menu. 100% recommend. I will be celebrating my birthday there for sure!

went once for a work christmas party and then went back for my dads birthday. slayed so hard both times. food is amazing but also reasonably priced and staff are fantastic.

Lovely birthday dinner at Casa Lola tonight, always great Tapas. Started with the bread and cold meats followed by lots of dishes, finished off with some desert. The tapas selection has something for everyone, if you order 6-7 dishes that will be good for 3-4 people. Recommend…. The meatballs, potato bravas and the chocolate cake which was a warm cake with a melted chocolate inside.

What a beautiful setting for a drink/meal. It was lovely weather mind & the sunset was spectacular! We went for a drink which turned into a meal but was close to Closing the kitchen. The friendly staff accommodated us & we sat outside & had a beautifully cooked steak whilst taking in the lowering sun. It’s easy access for wheelchairs, large car park & there’s a very good sized garden for children to play in. They also allow dogs on leads. Would highly recommend this pub.

We’ve been to this pub a few times. Standout is the service and the location, and just the beautiful building. The food is also really good. The ONLY thing I don’t like is the selection of beers/ciders on tap, they only serve the products of a local brewery. We always enjoy going and the kids love the garden. We will keep coming back.

We had a wonderful Sunday roast while sitting outside, enjoying the beautiful views of the fields. The food was not only delicious but also complemented by the friendly and attentive service. The menu offers a great variety of options, catering to all tastes, which makes it even more appealing. This place is quickly becoming one of our favorite spots

I ate here before it closed down but it wasn't great. Tomato soup was too sweet and the bread was hard. So I can't speak for the change. But the staff are brilliant.
