The refurb looks nice, but honestly, I&#39;m just here for the food. The grilled octopus starter was the standout. Perfectly charred, tender inside, with a smoky, lemony flavour that was spot on. Could have done with a touch more seasoning, but the texture was just right.

Came for a birthday dinner. Victor and Valya looked after us well, very friendly. Food was tasty, no complaints there. It was a nice, relaxed evening.

Great spot on Western Road, easy to get to. The new kitchen is a real win. Had the Durban curry with roti, really hit the spot. Their house lager was a surprisingly good match with the spice, cut right through it. Pints are always fresh here.

Loved the courtyard. The fountain&#39;s gentle sound was so calming, made the fish and chips taste even better. The batter was perfectly light and crisp. A lovely spot for a quiet evening.

Stopped in for lunch while traveling. The meal was nicely prepared and good value. A friendly, well-run pub with a good selection of ales and spirits.

My usual spot for Chinese. The staff always remember my face, which is a nice touch. Food&#39;s consistently good, no surprises there. Just a solid, reliable place.

The chicken tikka biryani here is a real find. The rice had all those lovely spices, and the chicken was so tender. I&rsquo;ll be thinking about that dish for a while!

Great pub quiz on Mondays. The team runs it really well, and Gary and Laura were especially friendly.

The staff are lovely, and they&#39;ve got a nice little wine list that pairs well with the relaxed vibe. A very pleasant spot.

The wine list is small, but I liked that. It felt thoughtful, not overwhelming. Picked a glass that went perfectly with my pasta without needing a sommelier. Just a nice, uncomplicated choice.

Crispy shredded beef was spot on, nice texture and flavour. Chicken wings had a good kick too, but came out a bit later than the beef. Solid choices.

The Sunday roast was really fresh, with lovely seasonal veg. The quality of the ingredients was spot on.

Booked the function room for a work event. The staff were incredibly helpful and made the whole process so easy. Everything ran smoothly, which was a relief. The food for the group was good, no issues there. A very stress-free experience.

The view of the cathedral from our table was lovely. It was a nice, quiet spot for a long catch-up with friends, even though it&#39;s right by the road.

Cosy spot with lovely Christmas decorations. The atmosphere is just right for a relaxed evening out.

We always stop by when we&#39;re in the area. The staff are so friendly and the real ale is spot on. It&#39;s a proper, cosy British pub. The booths are comfy, which makes it easy to relax for a good while.

Been coming here for years, and the Amarone is still a proper deal. Always order a bottle when we&#39;re downstairs for something low-key. Just hits the spot every time.

The steak and kidney pudding was a lovely, hearty choice. Portions are generous, which I appreciate. The booths are quite roomy and comfortable, made it easy to relax. Service was friendly and efficient.

Service was prompt and helpful. They handled my gluten-free request without any fuss, and even boxed up the leftovers.

Lovely pub garden for the warmer months. The atmosphere is always nice and relaxed, which is what I look for. Found a quiet corner table and it was just a very comfortable spot to unwind with a drink. The upstairs pool table is a nice touch too.

The back garden is a real find. They&#39;ve done a lovely job with the cover, lights and heaters. A proper little hideaway in Reigate. Perfect for a chilled evening with mates.
