The Queen Victoria, Shalford

This place has retained the traditional village pub atmosphere but has all the qualities looked for by today's customers. Their food is exceptionally good - and good value - the beers are well kept and don't hang around long enough to go 'tired'. The boss, Neil, knows his job. He is friendly with everyone and is prepared to work hard.Suited and booted, or straight off the building site, customers all get the same welcome. One of the best pubs in the area for food, real ale and good service.

Pub, Chilworth

A full restaurant of happy diners is as good a recommendation as any pub could hope for - and it happens here! A full menu to suit every taste and every pocket; good service ( I had a cute blonde waitress - friendly and good at her job). Owner seems to realise that identifying customer needs is the only way to increase profits and he obviously knows his stuff. A couple of cute waiters who look as though they could star in porn movies, but that's a good distraction if you are not enjoying the company of your fellow diners!
Some of the messages posted must come from contributors who cannot recognise good food, have no idea about good service and would find McDonalds a pleasant eating experience. That's fine - but they should go back to McDonalds. This place suits a more discerning customer and there are plenty of us around.
Top marks to you all - and I am a hell of a fussy customer - long may you continue to thrive. You may not like it, but, I will be back!
