Could not be bothered to cook and thought we would try here for a change. Wish we had gone to the chip shop and eaten whilst standing in the freezing cold! Staff so busy amusing each other they had no time for the customers and our meals were awful (after wating for 45 minutes). Garlic bread was nice 'tho. Should have had chocolate pudding I 'spose, but could not wait to leave. Use of anglo saxon terms in reference to ladies parts was word of the day!

me and my hubby went for a meal a few nights ago. the food and service was lovely. the chocolate pudding thing for two was absolutely gorgeous and a must try. the atmosphere was good too and the staff were friendly. worth a visit

Oldpeculier Rolling Stones is another.

The heritage of this pub is excellent having hosted numerous groups in the past, I believe including the Jam, and others not coming to mind at the moment (many posters will be able to fill this blank in). Reminds me a lot of the Claremont in Byfleet and is run in the same surly manner. A hotbed of violence and petty crime for years avoid at all costs.

Not alot of comments on this pub and calling in (dont) you can see why its an awful place.Not been good for years. 1/10

This is going to be an example of a pub who in the New Year will be complaining that business has been hit by the smoking ban – what a load of rubbish!! – this pub can easily cope with the bad weather, the smoking ban but what it does need is a big overhaul of retail standards as they are terrible, I'm not sure whats going on with the manager but surely he shouldn't be stood behind the bar, drinking, wearing an unironed t-shirt with his breakfast down the front!!, it needs someone to replace lightbulbs, clean tables and a friendly welcome, unless you've been local you are made to feel decisdely uncomfortable - this is my local I've tried it twice now but I won't be back again, I'll be one of the many that walk the 20 minutes into town instead!!

Used to be my local. Very glad I moved house. Can be "lively" at closing time. Food is good value, but low quality. A good footie pub.

The Wooden Bridge. OK. Well, the backbone of the townie Guildford community (yes, I am talking Bellfields and Stoughton!), this pub has reinvented itself more times than Madonna. You go there more because it's close, you know it and because it just seems to be the easiest place to meet up before going on somewhere else (you never actually do though)than for the beer or the atmosphere. I am (sadly) no longer living in the vicinity , but I hear that these days it has been revamped. Yeah, yeah, it will still always just be the Bridge.
It gets a seven as for sheer staying power and the bizarre ability it has to draw you in and keep you going there for decades.

Beer and food variable. When my food order came out wrong, it looked like they just took it away, chucked some spices on and reheated it!

was better before they 'chef & brewered' it as it had at least 10 pool tables....though was a bit rough.....now it's just full of Guildford townies...

Claim to fame: the Rolling Stones played here in the sixties.
