Traditional 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”

“Very nice service and delicious food”

“The service here was excellent, and the lunch meal had the perfect variety. The massaman beef had just the right flavour, not too rich, not over the top with peanuts, and left us wanting more. The vegetable spring rolls were also a1 - crispy!”

“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.”

“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”

“Haines Watts have managed our accounts since 2016 and are excellent, we are so happy that we moved to them. They are a new breed of accountant, proactive, intelligent, helpful, friendly & approachable. We highly recommend them.”

“The barbers at Club 8 never disappoint. Friendly and highly skilled, they always keep me looking fresh. Strongly recommend! You can't go wrong with any of the barbers at Club 8!”

“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.”

“Love this place. Great atmosphere, lovely people and fabulous beer..... very worth a visit !!”

“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.”

“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!”

“Simply the best Indian food in this area of Surrey - and we've tried most of them I think. Now we just stick with Rasoy, visiting probably once per week for two years now. We've taken friends and family, and never once been let down. Freshly made, delicious food, always spot on, always looked after.”

“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.”

“Great, beautiful school with nice and caring teachers and staff. Lovely environment to have the kids growing.”

“As a Chinese who grown up in China and have been living in the UK for many years, I wouldn’t say this place has very authentic Chinese food, but it doesn’t stop it being an excellent restaurant. The food was really nice and the staffs are very friendly. They have reinvented the Chinese dishes to fit the British taste, but it’s still nice and kept the inspiration of Chinese food.”

“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”

“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.”

“Had a problem with a Honda lawnmower which I'd bought a few months earlier (surging when warm). Initially was told may or may not be warranty, but I sent an email explaining the issue and had a call back within 30 mins from Paul. Dropped the mower off on a Tuesday - was told by another member of staff it "may be a few weeks", but received a call the next day from Paul to say all was fixed and mower was ready to pick up (it was a faulty gasket fitted by the factory). Shame about poor Honda quality control, but thumbs up to Ernest Doe for solving the problem quickly.”

“Great atmosphere with helpful, charismatic staff! Was the perfect place for a Saturday evening out. Would highly recommend and will definitely be coming back as soon as possible.”

“Very happy with out kitchen - ours was installed a couple of years ago and quality and service have been great from planning to installation and fixing minor things afterwards”

“A magnificent apartment block in Esher High Street with very high specification.”

“Absolutely brilliant school with very professional caring teachers that care a great deal about each individual child”

“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!”

“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”
