A lot of flannel posted here. Firstly, if you walk into a half empty pub (on probably a week day evening as it is busy at weekends) you are going to get stared at. That applies to every pub from here to Dundee.

This is a Surrey Pub. No chavs around here and that statement actualyl conflicts with the builders statement.

Which is it then? Can't be both can it?

Like most pubs, it actually has several characters dependent on the time of day, the time of year and the day of the week..

Weekday lunchtime, its full of posties after they knock off. The PO delivery depot being a few hundred yards down the road. Early evening weekdays, workers, mostly builder types but people like me too (I'm an IT consultant) pop in for a pint or a two on the way home. Weekday evenings are dead unless there is an activity. Monday nothing. Tuesday darts. Wednesday nothing. Thursday Pool and Poker league. The friday early evening session gets longer because its, well poets day.

Saturdays and Sundays during the winter are driven by the sport. If there is somethign on, then its busy. If there is not, its not. During the summer, the garden is literally packed with families all enjoying the excellent garden facilities and barbecues. There's even a tuck shot in a shed in the garden.

I absolutely agree that on a hot weekend afternoon it is very difficult to get served. A sign of a successful pub, not a violent haven for chavs. In my 40 years (ie, 22 drinking in the local pubs) of living in and around the woking area, this pub has never had a reputation as a violent or rough pub. If you want a fight, all you have to do is walk the drag between the kebab house in woking and the Rat and Parrot and or visit any of them on a weekend evening. In the ten years or so (on and off) that I have drunk as a regular in the RH, I have never seen anythign that was not a minor handbags at dawn scuffle betweeen two people - quickly out in the carpark and over usually with one or both barred. The sort of thing that goes on in just about every single pub in the land.

This is one of those places which is a bit like a lot of people. Looks nice on the outside, but once you get in - oh dear, not good, not good at all. Not good in the kind of way that the handful of customers gawp round for a gander as you walk in – are you local? We only like locals here, this is a pub for locals not for you city folks with yer fancy ways and fancy women. We drank up and shot off quickish not to return unless they pay me to be nice. One ale on tap – Courage best which is always a bit of an ale cop out but better than fizzy chrome tapped ice splodge.
