Lunch dishes in Esher

“Have dined a number of times and never been disappointed. As it was bonfire night a friend and I decided to get a takeaway. The food was beautiful, hot, with all the right spices, making it the same as if dined in. What was exceptional was that 2/3 minutes after opening the takeaway bag I realised that one item was incorrect but as we liked this starter anyway we decided not to bother to do anything. However the phone went and panorama rang, full of apologies and sent a driver out with the item we had ordered. I said it didn’t matter but they insisted. I thought this was great customer service. Amazing food, never disappointed completed with great customer service by lovely people”

“It had been a very long time since I’d been here as my first visit hadn’t been inspiring. What a change! Fantastic staff welcoming and despite being rushed off their feet, attentive, professional and always smiling. Service was great and the food fresh and exciting and very tasty. Definitely worth a repeat visit!!”

“Yet another delicious meal at Cotes, Esher. Atmosphere is always welcoming, staff are extremely friendly and professional. The place is always clean, service excellent and good value for money.”

“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.”

“Had a bacon, avocado and cheese panini and I'm happy to say it's probably the best panini I've ever had. Good amount of all fillings, good quality bacon which was cook well. The panini was fresh and heated. Faultless. Service excellent and friendly.”

“Very good food - amazing place for breakfast and dinner”

“Went here for brunch and the food and drinks were delicious. I had the avocado on sourdough and bubbleology cocktail, which I really enjoyed. The theming of the cocktails was fun and I liked the variety of choices they had. The service was great and the staff were really lovely, would definitely recommend!”

“Stopped here for a quick bite of lunch whilst hiking in Surrey. The staff were friendly, the coffee was delicious as were our Tuna Melt Paninis and the cakes we enjoyed as a treat to keep us going on our 20 km winter walk. It is a lovely place to relax and enjoy coffee inside the cafe but we also noticed several people enjoying the winter sunshine and sitting outside.”

“By far the best vegan food I have eaten in the UK. So much flavour and incredible service Bring your pup's or your family and sit in this charming spot in Esher, where the coffee is as it should be and the food is out of this world This fussy eater is very happy to have found my new favourite spot”

“My husband and I had dinner here last night, and we were very pleasantly surprised. There was a menu stacked with options, and normally this is a cause for concern because you can't get that many things right. Except that they did. We tried two of their specials: the prawn croquetas and the goat's cheese filled courgette flowers, which were both brilliant and absolutely moreish. We also gad a delicious runny tortilla, pan con tomato, chipirones, lamb pinchos and berenjenas from the main menu. It felt like being in Spain. The recipies were authentic, and you can tell that the chef does not skimp on ingredients. The service was warm and friendly and quite professional. It did not feel like they had only been open for a few weeks. They had a reasonable wine menu which worked with the food. Definitely our new local date night spot!”

“Food was delicious staff attentive. Very busy unfortunately there was a very loud group of people. So many diners these days think we all want to hear their business. Loved the food and staff will visit again.”

“Yet again the food is amazing. Great staff as well. If you are in the area give it ago. You won't be disappointed.”

“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%”

“We visited today, we asked for a table out of the way as we’ve two large dogs who love to take up space. Anna was very accommodating and gave us a great table, she’s a very friendly host. Suki served us and was very friendly and helpful, all the staff were lovely. The pub is very dog friendly, the have beds, a water station and treats for them. The food was lovely. Will definitely come back again - thank you team!”
