Little place to stay. Good location to reach Box hill and Dorking. Friendly staff, locals are dining. Standard room (Epsom) has view to the roofs/inner yard/other houses, so I suggest to get better room for the view to the church. Default selection for Breakfasts.

Had a super lunch here after a lovely walk at Boxhill. Staff were really friendly and attentive and food was very tasty! Sat outside in the sunshine too which was a bonus. We had the fish sandwich, prawns on toast, and chicken club sandwich. Clear plates all round. We’ll be back!

We had a great meal and experience here. Very reasonably priced food, excellent portion size and wine selection. We caught the train from London and were in the countryside in 30min then had a 20min walk from Boxhill & Westhumble station to work up the appetite. All round great experience and lovely team who looked after us. Will be back!

We were a group of 10 having Sunday lunch after a morning walk. The pub was very accommodating to changes in our number beforehand, and offered a warm welcome when we arrived. Despite being busy, the service was efficient and friendly. We enjoyed our meals - noted in particular was the Roast Belly Pork and the Baked Hake; and for dessert - the Rhubarb & Almond Tart. We'll definitely return.

Kasia was amazing. I have a number of allergies and when we arrived she had prepared a menu specifically for me. Food was great and absolutely a pub that went above and beyond - will certainly go again Lovely atmosphere on a busy Friday evening too
