Pub atmosphere in Esher

“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.”

“Cute pub, with a nice ambiance. We went for lunch but it looks like the kind of place I’d like to go for dinner or Sunday roast, fire pits and a mix of informal and formal seating. Friendly staff as well. Youngs pub, so consistent. I’d recommend.”

“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.”

“Great atmosphere, lovely staff - especially Peter behind the bar he was great”

“Absolutely amazing. Makes living in the area that much better!”

“The new setup is brilliant, a hidden gem in an industrial estate. Well done and thank you. Great beers and treats for the dog. Become a great stop for dog walkers, cyclists and so much more. Music, quiz nights and food now too.”

“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”

“Truely local pub, wholesome food, dog friendly 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!”

“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!”

“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!”
