| Has improved a lot now. Four of the best bottled beers in the World and some good soft drinks too. Food looks like it would be ok. Worth visiting. aleman - 21 Jul 2008 15:11 |
| The Seahorse hasn't been a pubby pub since the 1970's - bring back Sid and Ursula and the darts board. However I think it is the best now that it has been for a long time. Have had numerous lunches and one evening meal there since it reopened and all have been excellent. The service is always friendly if a little slow and I don't think they quite grasp the concept of a lunch hour. Howver a Lithuanian chap did go and find out the footbsll score for us! The beer is just about OK, much better kept at the Jolly Farmer down the road at Bramley or the Grantley at Wonersh. But the area does need a decent pub to eat in and so far has been excellent quality and an interesting and changing menu. Worst thing - the nightmarish (excuse pun) huge pictures of horses heads. lizlibation - 2 Jul 2008 23:18 |
| "Aleman" not so much a strange name but certainly inappropriate for a half-pint drinker - wouldn't one agree old "chap". Read my review on the Parrot - if I worked there I wouldn't be critisising the prices. Mr Reasonable got something right for a change when he states I wasn't commenting on your review,although I feel very sad you couldn't find a nice vegetarian dish - not!

| We wandered in willy nilly only to stand transfixed like a deer in headlights before backing slowly out again. I wanted to go somewhere relaxing after a tough day and the lighting put me off immediately. Is it some kind of McDs "Keep the lights bright so they'll eat faster and we can put new bums on seats" design? I couldn't see anywhere that you wouldn't have a spotlight shining right at you. We try again on a day when I've got my sunnies with me. perhaps. jackie_sunshine - 29 Jun 2008 12:56 |
| I agree with those saying that the re-furbisment has been a disaster for the pub. Been drinking and eating at the SeaHorse occasionally for many years but don't think that I'll be going back till new management take over again. They have destroyed to old pub atmosphere - the lights over the tables look like they have come out of a factory - huge things about 2ft diameter or else multiple swivelling car headlamp units. Very out of place for a pub that is hundreds of years old. I agree with the "designed by a footballer's wife" comment made earlier. Meals start at £10.50 and don't come with vegetables - only found this out when our meal arrived as was not clear on menu nor mentioned by the waitress that you had to order veg separately. Been told the permanent looking printed menu is identical to that at the Inn on the Lake, Godlaming ~ so now part of a pub chain maybe, I don't know. Also rather over crowded in the bar area with smallish round copper tables all with two chairs and one stool type affair. Range of beers reasonably priced from £2.85/pint. Was very busy on a Friday so some people like it - just not my cup of tea as they say and miss the lost atmosphere of what had been one of the best very old traditional Surrey pubs. andy8 - 23 Jun 2008 07:39 |
