The Parrot Inn, Shalford

We ended up here after being turned off by the Seahorse's rude and pretentious demeanour. And we were very glad we did. The Shere Drop and Doom Bar were lovely as was the steak and kidney pudding. The staff were friendly and helpful which makes a pleasant change to many of the pubs around Guildford (The Ship - I'm looking at you in particular).

A really nice place to stop for a drink and some pub grub.

The Seahorse, Shalford

We dropped in for a meal the other night. Rude inattentive staff and a totally uninspiring and pretentious menu (I mean "frites" and "jenga fries" really?) meant we didn't even stay long enough to find out what the food was like.

This place is basically an Italian restaurant masquerading as a pub, and from what I saw I wouldn't be confident that it is a particularly good restaurant.

Like Castiche, we went on to the Parrot and were very glad we did!
