Gutzeit(good time) says the Angel is closed; this is odd, as I was at my mate's wedding there last week. Service and food - were great. Mostly people from Canons, up the road; this is our local; it will never close - bearing in mind the recent £1m refurb.

The Angel quiz night is great . Last week, a Canon's bloke was asked 'what's a valley between two mountains ?'. He didn't know and said 'pass'. 'Correct!' said the quizmaster and the bloke won a Trident missile. Surrey's smartest venue - although the caviar can taste a bit fishy.

Interesting, it appears the celebrities have moved south east down the A25 - Albury, Gomshall, Dorking....leftfield, you're possibly having a bad lager day ! No rating left, last there about 15 years ago for a birthday party and I don't remember it as that good on the buffet side of things. However, things have probably changed for the better when I read that someone is holding a wedding reception there in July.

This is where the Guinness is creamy, the G & T's are crisp and the Buck's Fizz chilled - with the coversation bordering on the intellectual. Perhaps, Surrey's finest ? Chopin was wafting through the atmosphere on my last visit and the girls from Canons were fragrant. A very historic venue, the Angel has become the Gatwick area social nucleus with frequent flying visits by film celebrities such as Lassie and The Mummy. In the fine beer garden, I recently spied a (very famous) orangoutang - TOPLESS !

The Angel is one of the oldest and finest pubs in Surrey. I work in the Accounts Dept. at Canons and we all visit this fine,clean and well run establishment regularly - for lunch and after work. Decor and service are great and the customers varied,friendly and well mannered. We had our best Christmas party ever there in December - and I am holding my wedding reception at The Angel in July. Are the other posters in the real world ?

It's criminal, this is one of the most historic pubs in Reigate and it has been allowed to be run down and cater for the rougher elements for a number of years. I went in once and was relieved to get out alive.

i work at canon uk and i assure you this pub does not recieve business from here!! or at least no-one i know.
this pub is awful, i visited once and was gone within 10 seconds.
the bar lady's face is an insult to any person and upon entering with two coloured friends there was a dead silence suggesting an air of racism.
DO NOT GO HERE! the sooner it goes out of business the better...

My mate Marting got barred out of here for dancing about naked while very very very drunk. So you know what to do. Monsy flicked 10p in the urinals with all the other pennies and when he went back for his next visit it had gone!

Possibly the worst pub I have been in. 5pm and those in the pub are totally incoherent or gaga.

Twice before I've written about this dump and each time my comments have been removed by someone after a week. Believe me, it's not a nice pub.

apparently the only pub in the locality which is not in the pub watch scheme. Consequently it attracts all the scrotes that have been banned from every other pub. need I say more

Ironic name unless it refers to the Angel of Death. Lock up your first born sons!

Seriously though its not as scary as people would have you believe. Rumours that taxi's refuse to go here are wide of the mark and they have a thriving trade at lunchtimes from nearby Canon UK.

Papping one's pants is not just reserved for the lower classes, you know, as it is a function of inebriation as opposed to breeding. It's just one of those things that sometimes happens.

I quite like this pub - no-one could accuse it of being boring.

some kiddie got his nose broken with a bottle last week by one of the good conversationalists, not inside the pub though
anonymous - 25 Mar 2005 13:37
By drinkers does he mean down and outs? conversation, does he mean expletives? rough does he mean khazi? ask for the bar food advertised on the sign up on the wall, gets em every time. Loads of "drinkers" pubs in the area don't waste your time in this one. One of the clientelle actually messed himself while I was in here, choice

ONE OF THE LAST SURVIVING "DRINKERS" PUBS IN THE BOROUGH. A BIT ROUGH, BUT ALWAYS GUARANTEED A GOOD PINT AND GOOD CONVERSATION
