Comfort food restaurants in Esher

“Lovely food as always. Great new lunch time menu that is a bargain. Worth a visit if in the area, the staff are lovely. Their Wheeping tiger is amazing in the evening menu if you like spicy beef.”

“Date night with my husband and was very surprised. Never had a cinema experience like it. Had drinks before we went in and ordered food. Staff delivered it to my lovely sofa. Loved the burger. Meat was obviously high quality. Also loved sharing the cookies with some ice cream....a must. Staff all cared that you enjoyed your experience and sets them above the completion on front. Many thanks Esher”

“Just popped in for a quick pint. I really liked the decor and ambiance in this pub. Will definitely visit again if I'm in the area.”

“We came here for dinner for the first time and was not disappointed. The service is excellent and the food is made very authentically! Being Indian myself I can say it's almost as good as my mums home made cooking. If you fancy indian please try this restaurant... you will be glad you did. 10/10”

“Great sushi counter inside Waitrose. Very fresh and tasty”

“The restaurant is amazing. The food is specific & finger-licking good. The staff is extremely well prepared and friendly- ready to answer any question or offer amazing recommendations. The beautifully balanced music acompanies the superbly designed place, creating an ambience you don't want to leave - especially after such satisfying meals.”

“From the first moment you step in this place the personel give you an enjoyable feeling. Very hospitable stuff, it is a friendly restaurant to enjoy with buddies or with your date. Excellent food, creative chef de cuisine, modest cost and excellent service. Highly recommended.”

“Went in the morning to miss some of the lunchtime rush. A very nice and quaint pub, a lovely spot to enjoy a coffee and read a book. The staff were very nice and the outside area is well maintained. Would be a good spot for sunnier days too”

“We had a really lovely experience here after some very hit and misses (more commonly misses) in the surrounding area while staying here for a week. The lady that served us was French and brought with her that air of hospitality as a career rather than a job that continental Europeans have that makes for really nice service. Efficient, polite and warm but unobtrusive. We hadn’t booked but were seated easily although it was a fairly busy Thursday night. Lots of outdoor and indoor seating available and a kids play park. I was so so happy to see the menu. A few carefully curated items rather than a huge menu (which I always avoid where possible as you just know it’s either done badly or isn’t fresh). I was surprised to notice that despite the appealing choices on the menu, literally everyone around us seemed to be eating burgers or fish and chips! Each to their own I suppose but I had the confit duck, my husband the lamb cutlets and his father the mussels. We all thought our food was incredibly tasty and were so happy we went on and had puddings which were also yummy. We would definitely be regulars if we lived in the area highly recommend!”

“The food was incredible! Waiter was friendly and helpful. Would recommend”

“Packed, toasted sandwiches No nonsense!! Recommended”

“Amazing Indian food tonight after meeting the brilliant Bitzu (who works there) outside. He invited me in and had an amazing meal at the bar. The barman Tuzo supplied the drinks, great barman, much in his element. A sphere full place to eat out. Much recommended.”

“Huge fan Spanish food so thought I would give this place a try for lunch on a Saturday. Really pleased I did. Loved the modern take on traditional Spanish Tapas. Ordered 6 items from the Tapas menu between two adults and each one was fantastic. Had kids with us too and they all cleared their plates although these were more traditional Brit offerings of burgers and sausage. One of the kids has a soya allergy and the waitress provided an allergens chart which was very helpful. Will return and highly recommend!”

“Had a great night with the family for my daughter’s birthday. Great quality asian fusion food, very fresh tasting curries and good cocktails! It was also to party and dance there after your meal with the resident DJ. Thanks to all the team at Pounding Heart for looking after us.”

“Such a helpful friendly waitress who really helped put the kids at ease, table of 8 so plenty of demands met with a smile and prompt service. Food was delicious. My Pollo Ad Astra pizza was perfect tasty and just enough spice. American Hot is a firm favourite too. My son loved his Dynamite Dough Balls. My calamari was perfectly done too. Sticky toffee cake was generous and cheesecake was absolutely delicious. What's not to like! Especially as my dear brother picked up the bill :-)”

“Went there the other night for some drinks and ended up having fish & chips a few hours later and my partner had a mixed grill. Fish was cooked to perfection and chips were top notch. Great portion size too. All the meat on the mixed grill was spot on. Both really happy and exceeded expectations. Asked for the chefs name and it was Henry I believe. Well done to him and the rest of the team. Will come again 100%”

“What a wee gem. Food was delicious. perfect poached eggs! staff were super friendly and helpful. Setting is gorgeous and right beside Esher woods so ideal for walk and brunch or lunch. deffo recommend”

“Ordered from Spielburger a few times via deliveroo and can guarantee EPIC food. We've mostly ordered the meal deal of beef burgers with fries and milkshakes - all taste delicious. Recently tried the philly cheesesteak and it was amazing. Thanks Spielburger! We can't wait to visit you when the cinemas open again soon :-)”
