The Prince of Wales, Esher

The place has now been completely refurbished and looks very welcoming inside, as well as much bigger!! Still a great wine selection. Food is pricey but very good quality. Brilliant place to go in the summer, and very friendly staff! The assistant manager is a particularly welcoming guy!

I went here a few weeks ago and ordered a gruyere and ham panini, which was of the poorest standard I have ever seen! The bread was soggy and soft (instead of nicely baked like a panini should be!) The gruyere tasted more like cheddar, and was not melted properly, so had gone a bit 'sweaty'. The ham just looked like the wafer thin slices you can get from your local supermarket. The chips were ok, but had been ruined by a great lump of ketchup that had been put on the plate (I do not eat ketchup). When I told them this, they took it away, only to wipe it off in the kitchen so I couldn't eat 1/4 of the panini and most of the chips! Never eating there again!!!

This place is terrible. Thankfully the awful managers they had there previously have been kicked out, but its not much better now. staff look miserable, food is served cold and quite often takes up to an hour to arrive.

this place could be so much better...needs new, enthusiastic staff and a set of friendly managers.

even the locals dont go there anymore.
