The Coach House - Tandridge

First impressions from the outside are really off putting. The front carpark is partially blocked by an old estate car and the back carpark almost full of scrap delapidated vehicles of all types. There are fridge and washing machine and kegs scattered about the grounds as well. This may have something to do with storm damage that’s mentioned but it should be cleared away completely not left to walk past on way to restaurant. Why the owners would want this as a reflection of their business beggars belief. Inside it’s supposed to be in the process of renovation but from the front entrance onwards the decor is very tatty and once again sets a poor impresssion. The food is ok but as someone else has mentioned the green veg is a mishmash of sorts and left a pool of water at bottom of plate. It’s needs bringing up to date fast and the carpark cleared to become a venue that you would like to return to.

This is not a pub for a celebration meal. Mothers Day family lunch celebration was ruined in so many ways, it wd take me too long to give all the details. Whilst the staff were welcoming trying very hard, it was just terrible in so many ways. Even though we were asked to pre order all of our food, thr first course took over 40 mins to arrive. There was 35mins between 1st 2 course. The whole meal took 2hrs 45 mins we are not slow eaters. There was a hair in my mushroom olive pate. We ordered 2 GF meals for people with coeliac they kept forgetting bringing non GF bread Yorkshire pudding. The sirloin steak was tough, the chips frozen tasteless. Apple crumble was obviously out of a tin as the fruit was so sweet. Though the custard crumble was nice. The veg with the roast was all over cooked, soggy roast potatoes, dried up carrots a weird green mess of veg which included cabbage, beans,Brussels sprouts asparagus all watery mixed together. This place is very unloved it shows. My advice -stay away.. and if the owners are ruse about our review, it is because they have no idea about how poor their service is. They looked really shocked when we told them on the day. But they did give us 10% off our bill, but that did not make up for a spiked day

The owners were very pleasant and even taxied us around a bit. The food is very good. Plenty of it and so much choice. We stayed 2 nights in Room 12. I must admit the surroundings around the rooms need to be tidied up. Old cars and lorries do not make for a nice view. The room was very clean though, which after all is the most important. We could not fault the staff and food.

Arrived for 1 night on a Monday restaurant and bar closed) was shown to my room no 14 was totally gobsmacked . It was filthy from bedroom to shower.filthy curtain,telly now working etc.i would have walked out then if I could have got a room elsewhere Needs total revamp.How can they actually charge people to stay here .?

The Open Mike evening was an incredible informal evening of talented musicians and quality restaurant menu. It was fun all the way! Thank you. Also, we shared a wonderful 80th birthday celebration where we had a complete section to ourselves. The caring attention, quality food, great service, excellent value enabled us to enjoy our own music and sharing of memories…even the family pet was allowed to stay! Highly recommend. Barbara Clark
