By far the best pub in Bletchingley. Thank goodness for the new owners as under the last ones it had gone downhill rapidly. Great variety of beers on tap, a good wine list and a really friendly atmosphere. It's off the beaten track a bit - down Little Common Lane - but is certainly worth the diversion off the A25. I haven't tried the food yet but it looked good on the 'plates on the next table!

Whyte Harte Hotel, Bletchingley
The most expensive pub in Bletchingley and not the friendliest. Over 11 quid for two large whiskys!!! I would not recommend to anyone.

This has got to be one of the worst pubs in Surrey. I can only put it down to the fact that it has a large car park and is on the main A25 road that it attracts passing trade, especially at weekends. The food is appalling (they can even cock up things as simple as a cheese sandwich!!) and the atmosphere can be best described as ferry lounge "grandeur" meets DFS showroom. Put simple, the Plough (or Miller's Kitchen as it seems to be calling itself these days) is a disgrace. If you want a decent drink and a bite to eat, steer clear.

The Home Cottage, Redhill
I used to go to the Home Cottage for a couple of pints on a regular basis and definitely miss what it once was - a simple boozer that served up a fairly decent pint. I went there last week for a family dinner and left somewhat disappointed. We had made a reservation via the pub's website but the waitress had no record of it. She walked off to the far end of the restaurant without telling us she was showing us to our table - very odd!
The food was very average - but for the price it should have been good.How come Gordon Ramsay can offer up a brilliant two-course meal in Central London for under twenty quid yet a pub in Deadhill, Surrey, can't match it?
Good points? Friendly waiting staff. Er....that's it.
The worst thing about it? The shaven head barman who was in a foul mood for some reason and managed to serve me a pint of bitter, a half pint of diet coke and a bottle of wine WITHOUT SAYING A SINGLE WORD!!! Total tosser who doesn't deserve the job.
