The Norbiton and Dragon, Norbiton

Won't find this one by accident but would recommend you make a bit of effort to get there. We were looking for any old pub near the Kingsmeadow Stadium and just picked this off the web. Wasn't expecting too much from some comments but really liked it. Excellent choice of food at lunchtime - English and Thai - reasonable prices - open fire - comfortable sofas - welcoming staff - London Pride Almost didn't bother going to the game. All in all a very pleasant lunchtime

The Plough and Harrow, Litlington

Perfect conditions to impress new customers - late summer lunchtime and very busy - but, oh dear, the Plough and Harrow contrived to cock things up pretty badly. The aforementioned, over fussy, menu was well and truly found wanting and parts of it, well and truly, overpriced. When I got my meal I thought they had made a mistake and given me a child's portion but no! Lamb undercooked, fish undercooked and what was that melon granita thing? Customers moaning left, right and centre. Shame really. It's a nice looking pub, the staff work hard, beer is fine. They probably survive off walkers who don't come back.
I might go back, as it's on my regular route now, but only for a drink and crisps!!
