| This pub is sensitivately updated with a total loss of Miss Starrs history. It retains the parlour look to maintain the original nostalgic ambience. It is not trying to copy a Wetherspoons so it offers a touch of class. Cheap food with gluttons quantities is available in the Toby Carvery and is good food at good value but the beer is no match for Home Cottage Youngs. Alternatively of course there are the scruffy town centre pubs. papavar - 21 Jan 2012 13:15 |
| I visited yesterday for the first time since the place was done out and can't say that I was over impressed! Really not sure what The Home Cottage is trying to be - it isn't a resteraunt (despite the extension trying to look like one) and the "pub" part is so oddly decorated/furnished it looks more like Granny's front parlour than a pub! Only Youngs' Special and Wells Bombadier on offer with all the other pump clips turned around. Quality was fine and the "pints" topped up without comment. Food menu looked expensive to me and not especially exciting if the place is trying to be more up market. cheshirecat - 18 Nov 2011 09:09 |
| I used to go to the Home Cottage for a couple of pints on a regular basis and definitely miss what it once was - a simple boozer that served up a fairly decent pint. I went there last week for a family dinner and left somewhat disappointed. We had made a reservation via the pub's website but the waitress had no record of it. She walked off to the far end of the restaurant without telling us she was showing us to our table - very odd! The food was very average - but for the price it should have been good.How come Gordon Ramsay can offer up a brilliant two-course meal in Central London for under twenty quid yet a pub in Deadhill, Surrey, can't match it? Good points? Friendly waiting staff. Er....that's it. The worst thing about it? The shaven head barman who was in a foul mood for some reason and managed to serve me a pint of bitter, a half pint of diet coke and a bottle of wine WITHOUT SAYING A SINGLE WORD!!! Total tosser who doesn't deserve the job. stewmorr - 18 Nov 2011 00:40 |
| Unfortunately had a disappointing time at the Home Cottage. I would say I had a similar experience to the post from August 1st. For us, 3 out of 4 people were not happy. I would say the quality of the food was decent enough but the value for money simply isn't there. For example, the pie came with a handful of green beans. Why couldn't they just throw in some potatoes at least which are hardly expensive to boil up? Instead we had to ask for some bread to compensate (and we are not particularly big eaters by the way). Of the four dishes the best was the Seabass and the worst was the Vegetable Wellington. It's a shame because the staff were very helpful and I like the interior but it's definitely overpriced for what it is. surreyseagull - 18 Oct 2011 19:28 |
| What a pity. As a local resident and user of the old Home Cottage I was looking forward to the pub being smartened up a bit and made a bit more family friendly. What we have is something which is trying to be a pub and trying to be a restaurant and failing with both. The food is very expensive, all the extras are charged separately, and for goodness sake, if order roast pork on a Sunday I expect crackling, not soggy fat on top. Having said that the quality of the food is good and the beer, whilst again is over the top price wise, is served with a smile. Although I live a few hundred yards from the HC, I will walk further to find a "proper pub", of which there are plenty in Redhill if you look for them. Andiman - 12 Oct 2011 12:45 |
