Quick glance: + fantastic French and English food…read more+ generous portion + happy and helpful staff - reservations recommended Full review: Three of us came here for a late pub lunch on a rainy, lazy Saturday. There is a small car park for a dozen or so cars, and luckily for us we arrived to filll up the one, remaining free spot and dodged the rain to quickly get into the pub. Once inside, we were warmly greeted and shown a table in the main restaurant. The choices on the carte du jour is sumptuously enticing, offering dishes split between traditional English pub grub like fish and chips and French edibles like escargot. The incongruity was at first puzzling; how good would French dishes be in a pub? And how good would pub grub taste in a French setting? Is it French or English?? We had the escargot to share, and the garlicky dish was satisfying and necessitating more bread to soak up the buttery goodness. My (petite) friend opted for the cod and chips, which was enormous but so tasty that, to my amazement, she polished off every last piece of the fish. I was deciding between two dishes and ultimately went on the waiter's recommendation for their seafood stew, apparently new on the menu and well received by other patrons. I wasn't disappointed when the dish arrived on a wooden platter. The visual and smell made my mouth water, and I couldn't wait to tuck into my meal. The fishes came in chunks to allow me to taste the freshness and sweetness of each piece of seafood on offer, and enormous flavours bursted with every mouthful. If only I had room for dessert. Next time! And I'll make sure to book ahead of time too!

A lovely Sunday (the sunniest of the year so far) led us out to Esher for a family (in-law) lunch!…read more I'd heard from friends that the Wheatsheaf is an excellent eatery so i was very excited to try it. The menu, in my opinion, is just the right size and on a Sunday, offers 2 courses for £18.50. I chose the cod, smoked salmon, spring onion and lemon fishcake for starter. Which was served with buttered leaks and a creamy parsley sauce. It was a great way to start the lunch! For my main course i opted for the grilled fillet of sea bream which came with crushed potatoes, samphire, vegetables and a lemon, caper, tomato & parsley butter. It was cooked perfectly and i thouroughly enjoyed it from start to finish. Topping it off with a HUGE slice of sticky toffee pudding for dessert, i can say this is a great place to dine. The service was exceptional and we were very well looked after!

Quick glance: + modern pub grub in traditional pub setting…read more+ welcomes dogs + friendly staff + some local ale on draught available - erring on the pricey side Full review: I came here for lunch on Saturday after strolling thought the Esher Landscape Garden nearby. The pub is charming, with nooks and crannies where you can tuck yourself into so you don't feel like you are sharing your conversations with the whole world. The menu offers familiar pub meals like chicken pie and pork belly, but the dishes are set in a modern way. The chef maintained substance above style, so you get a hearty, filling plate of food (ie. big portion) that looks appetising and enticing. The only slight downside is some of the prices erring on the high side. For example, the special dish of the day of steak tallies at £18. While I have no doubt it would be cooked to the customer's utmost satisfaction, I would rather avoid such high price tag at a pub even if I'm in the middle of Surrey.

If you are a resident and have never been, shame on you! If you haven't been and are an out of towner then I won't tell you off, but please let me explain why it is worth a visit. - Its idyllic setting. Esher is a built up town, but this nestles proudly in a little corner of a large common, overlooking a pond and a church, so it retains a village feel. - The interior. In cold dark months, of which we have many, this is the cosiest, most inviting place you could imagine. Dark floorboards creak underneath you as you head to the bar. The place is alive with the hum and chatter of locals, and there is no jukebox or music playing - you will be required to make the conversation yourself. For a relatively small place, this has plenty of little nooks that you can sink into with a pint or a glass of wine. - The exterior. There is also a large well kept pub garden with plenty of large tables to sit groups of people in warmer weather. Come summer this place is packed out. - The food. Freshly prepared I would like to add. The dishes are more sophisticated than usual pub fare, so no burger and chips. But you can look forward to dishes like meatballs, chicken pie, croque monsieur, cheese and meat boards and Sunday Roasts. Plenty of puddings too. At the moment it is just lunch which is being served, but chefs are working on a possible dinner service. I highly advise a visit to this place. Trust me, you will love it.

I dropped a pin on the map and it landed on that area. The person we rented the Air BB from mentioned that The Victoria was a great pub to stop in to and great for a meal. We walked over from where we were staying in Oxshott and I must say it was the most amazing meal from the entire trip we had in the UK. We started with the SNAILS, which were made with really nice seasoning of what I believe was parsley, olive oil, and garlic.. I think. For main dishes we had the HAKE, RABBIT SPECIAL, and the BOAR. Each dish was made to perfection, and paired perfectly with the wine we ordered. We really couldn't do dessert, but once we heard that it was PISTACHIO SOUFFLE w/ Chocolate ice cream, we couldn't resist!!
