Reviews
Nice locals boozer. Went there as part of a 3-pub crawl around the town. Beer in good condition.
Doorway to other bar has 'mind your head' sign on one side, but not the other. Be warned! My mate completely forgot about it and banged his head returning!
Charming traditional pub with a real fire, friendly doggies and great food.
The people who run it seem lovely as well.
Off the beaten track but definitely worth seeking out.
Since the beginning of my long weekend (retirement) I've visited lots of pubs on a fairly random basis. I visited the Griffin for a couple of hours on Wednesday.
I can't remember the last time I've been in a pub with a saloon bar and a public bar. I was in the saloon bar, but would like to believe (though without confidence) that prices in the public bar were cheaper.
Went in as the lunchtime food was finishing and it quickly went from being packed to being empty, though the public bar remained lively.
Overall, service was good, beer was very good. First impression, a good pub.
Absolutely wonderful little pub set very much in suburbia. The outdoor seating in the front as we entered was being well used with TVs up for football etc. The barman was very friendly as were the locals inside. And when the sign above the door says 'Mind your head', mind your bloody head!! It hurts!! Anyway, the Guinness was superb as was the Surrey Hills brewery Ranmore.
It’s just a really solid classic English pub. Lots of screens playing the football, including outside. Good atmosphere, dog-friendly, interesting layout with the saloon bar. Dart board too.
Drinks are reasonable (4.90 for a pint of ale), at least compared to what you’d be paying down the road at The Foley or Hare and Hounds. Friendly vibe from bar tenders and customers alike.
Never eaten here so can’t comment on the food, wouldn’t expect its anything to write home about but prices look reasonable. Need more of these pubs.
