The lamb was cooked just right, and that fruity dessert was a dream. Staff were so lovely, they even did a little something extra for our anniversary. Really made us feel special.

Loved the little garden out back. It&rsquo;s a proper little sun trap, just right for a pint when it&rsquo;s not raining. Felt like a nice escape from the street for a bit.

Came here with friends on a packed Saturday night. The chicken and chorizo dish was so good for this time of year. Staff were really on it despite the crowd, which made it easy for us to just relax and chat.

Popped in for a quick pint. Bella the pub dog is the star here, really friendly. Gave my own spaniel a sniff and a wag. Nice to see a place that&rsquo;s genuinely welcoming to dogs. 🐕

Popped in for a quick lunch. The pizza was spot on - fresh out of the oven, nice and crispy. Justyna was lovely, service was quick but not pushy. Decent spot for a bite.

Been coming here for years. It&#39;s proper home-cooked pub food, nothing fancy. The portions are always big, and honestly, their chips are the best around here. Can&#39;t go wrong for a simple, filling meal.

The view was stunning, really made the meal. Food was tasty, we finished everything. A solid spot.

Stopped by for a quick business lunch. The chicken curry was solid, flavourful without being too heavy. Service was prompt and efficient, which is exactly what I needed. Good option for a reliable meal in the area.

The Peshwari Chicken was a standout. Savoury, not sweet like the naan. Portion was generous for the price, which is rare these days. Left feeling very satisfied.

First time in Dorking and really liked this pub. The garden is so spacious and the private cubicles are a lovely feature. Had a nice lunch and a good pint. Staff were friendly, and it&#39;s dog-friendly too. A very comfortable spot.

Been coming here for years. The food is always piping hot and full of flavour, just like the first time.

Service was so quick, even on a packed Friday night. Food came out piping hot which was perfect for our group - no one had to wait while their dish got cold!

Been coming here for ages, always good. The Sunday all-you-can-eat is a proper deal. Everything tastes fresh, which is nice.

Lovely outdoor space, really spacious. Perfect for a relaxed drink after a walk. The sun was out, so we grabbed a table outside. Just what we needed.

The fillet steak in peppercorn sauce was delicious, and the service was impeccable. I highly recommend this restaurant for anyone looking for a great meal.

Been coming here for 20+ years. It&#39;s family-run, and the food is just as good as it always was. The staff are friendly and actually remember you. A proper local spot.

Love this little spot for catching up with friends. The manager is super friendly, always remembers our orders and has a quick chat. Makes it feel like a proper local hangout. Food&#39;s good and not too pricey, which is perfect for a casual meet-up.

Cosy spot, and the little gift shop next door is a nice touch. Picked up some lovely handmade soaps. The wine list was decent, had a nice Pinot Noir that went well with the evening. A bit pricey for the pour, but it was a pleasant find.

The atmosphere at Tikka Nation is welcoming, and the decor has a casual cafe style. The food is full of flavor, and they even cater to dietary requirements with ease.

Loved the garden seating! The vegetarian platter was really good, and the homemade falafels were a hit. Perfect spot for a long catch-up with friends. The tea in those cute little pots was a nice touch. Service was lovely and friendly.
