All Bar One, Guildford

I don't think I've ever had such appalling service anywhere else in my life - and consistantly.
Went in after work one weekday with friends, only three tables of people in and 4 bar staff, ordered drinks and a coffee.
20 minutes later coffee still hasn't arrived. Went to bar to enquire about coffee to be told that it was being made. How stupid do they think their punters are, we had a clear view of the coffee machine and there was no one within 2 metres of it!
Unfortunately this level of "service" is a fairly regular occurance, and on a weekend you'll easily wait 20 minutes to get served.
This place is so bad that if anyone suggests going there I suggest that I would rather stay home and poke sharp objects in my eye.

The Jolly Farmer, Worplesdon

This is my all time favourite pub, the setting is fabulous in summer (garden) and winter (open fire), and the food has never disappointed (except when they took the belly pork off the menu).
Meal prices are higher than your average pub but then you're not paying for your average pub's food.
Visit TJF at least twice a month and this is one spot I always take friends/family when they visit the UK.
Also a great location if you enjoy a walk in the country to work up your appetite before lunch/dinner.

The Drummond, Guildford

This pub was refurbed in 2007 and changed dramatically.
Pool table and darts board have gone.
The food is very good and it has a great selection of beers, ciders and wine.
The garden has been made over too and now has a covered area and heating.
All in all a very nice pub for dinner and/or drinks.
