The 30 Best Restaurants in Guildford

“Beautiful and well kept restaurant with lovely, helpful staff. Food was great, the quality you expect from a chain but executed really well. A very nice visit.”

“Ordered last night for delivery through Deliveroo, delivery was fast and no problems. Delivery guy was nice and told me they had upgraded both my pizza from 12” to 15”! Amazing service and quality of food, highly recommend! Sorry I didn’t have any cash to tip yourselves, I’ll definitely make sure I do for next time!”

“I stayed last night for a business trip. Considering this was one of the more affordable hotels, I was impressed by The Mandolay. Great rooms. Attentive staff and great bar / dining area. Only small critique was the showers aren't the largest, but no issues whilst I was there.”

“There's no other place in Guildford where you can taste a truly fine Argentinian steak, a delicately-crafted beef empanada and a glass of malbec whilst enjoying Latin music and the sparkling smile from the head waitress, all at the same time. Thanks to the grillmaster, Carmona is a great place for beef connoisseurs outside London!”

“We had a wonderful 70th birthday celebration at the HarBar. Thank you to all the staff who were friendly and efficient & the food was brilliant. The day was made perfect by being sunny and out on the lovely terrace. We look forward to returning.”

“Only discovered ITSU recently. Finally, fast food that's also healthy as well as competitively priced. So far the Vitality bowl is my favourite.”

“Lovely place to grab a tasty bite. Great variety, the food is flavoursome and fresh testing. Love the high protein meals, great when you're training and you're trying to increase your protein. This is my go to place when I'm in the area, staff are wonderfully friendly and attentive. I highly recommend this restaurant..”

“ordered a kung po chicken , egg fried rice and salt and chilli pepper chicken. i believe it took less than 15 minutes for the whole order to be prepared. food tasted really good and quite worth for its price (20£) as I’ve got half left over and im quite a big eater. The kung po chicken doesn't really taste like the authentic ones I’ve had and leans towards the sweet and sour side but it still tastes good nonetheless. Will definitely be back (a bag of prawn crackers was also given)”

“A lovely place with a warm welcome. Some truly historic rooms in a very historic building. Buffet breakfast offered. Lots of interesting and quirky places to sit. Lovely garden. On a busy road. Ten pounds to park but plenty of free places nearby.”

“I had a lovely meal with my 2 sisters, for our annual Christmas meet. The food was delicious and beautifully presented. Kate who served us was helpful, efficient, friendly and made the whole experience top class. Thank you so much!”

“Favourite Chinese I’ve ever had, so much flavour! Also, I called to place an order and the lady on the phone was very helpful and the delivery guy was super friendly too. Would recommend! Thanks a lot guys :)”

“Hadn't been in Next since it was in the White Lion Walk and was very happy leaving! I found a shirt on sale, and Susie was lovely during payment and had a conversation and a laugh. I came back later that day to exchange the shirt for a smaller size and Susie was totally understanding and was very helpful! Will definitely come back for any future clothing!”

“I often get the Gluten free fish and chips and sausage in batter are lovely. Light crispy batter and cooked perfectly. Staff are always friendly, although you have to wait a while for your food when they are busy, it is totally worth the wait. Keep up the good work.”

“food is good, music is great and staff are friendly :)”

“Chennai Dosa is one of the best place place if you like South Indian food. Food is very authentic and staff is very polite and respectful. If you are planing to go there ghee roast is on of their best Dosa. Very recommend.”

“By far, the best chinese within 10 miles, i've tried most Chinese takeaway / restaurant from New Haw, Byfleet, Woking, Horsell, St Johns and this is by far the best you can get for your money. Good tasty food, pleasant staff. I have been buying from them for the last 20 years! since they were in Woking, i've moved address several times since and so have they but well worth travelling the extra mile!”

“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I had to stop and take a picture of the pizza—it looked that good! Honestly, it’s probably one of the best pizzas I’ve ever had. The taste and quality were spot on, and I really hope they can keep it up because I’ll definitely be a loyal customer for a long time. Highly recommend!”

“Dhaval bhai was giving best service. Store was looking so clean and fresh. Will definitely be returning soon.”

“Myself and two friends decided to try Bengal Dynasty as is was close to the Travel Lodge we were staying at. Being a Sunday evening it was quiet and we were seated straight away. Menu had some great choices. Two of us opted for the Tandoori mixed grill. Absolutely superb - I really recommend. My friend ordered Chicken Tikka Balti, he really enjoyed it, although he said it was a bit spicy. We were even given free shot of Baileys and a whiskey. Very polite waiter and front of house staff, food was quickly served. I would definitely return if ever I was to visit the area again.”

“We got a takeaway recently from Shangri La. The lady behind the counter was so friendly and welcoming. We gave her my name and straight away she knew the order and confirmed it back to us! She was very chatty and helpful. The food didn’t take long either. It was ready within 15 mins of ordering. We ordered some Thai food which was very tasty! We will be ordering from them again!!!”

“Perfectly charred crust, stretchy cheese, and toppings that actually taste fresh. Simple, fast, and ridiculously good, this place just gets pizza right.”

“Always super fast delivery, friendly staff & food is good.”

“I don’t like staying at Travelodge, I had no choice to stay in Chertsey. We were greeted my Sameen, she had a friendly smile. It was a check check in, still thinking can’t believe I’m in a travelodge, until I saw the room, the room was spacious and very clean. Actually the hotel was very clean, I could not find a fault with the Chertsey branch. Well done to the hotel staff and specially to Sameen I hope that is the correct name. She changed my mind about travelodge. Best of luck.”

“I visited the Guildford Parkway Beefeater restaurant on Wednesday 19th November. I was not particularly hungry so a meal from the children's menu sufficed. This was steak chips, peas and mini corn on the cob. The food was delicious and very promptly served. K-C was my waitress and was extremely professional and polite. That said, this applied to all the staff and the atmosphere was very relaxing. In particular I consider that the meal was excellent value for money at £6-99. As an example, I recently paid £9+ for a McDonald's meal. Food was good, and service prompt,  BUT, as with all such restaurants, I had to eat with my fingers from a paper bag. At the Beefeater, I have a proper plate and cutlery, and service was just as quick as at McDonald's. Also, yesterday, before dining at the Beefeater, I visited my local Costa. Staff are very pleasant, however I paid £12+ for coffee, cheese cake and a toasted sandwich. In other words, almost twice the cost of a "real" Beefeater meal! Plus, again I had to eat with my fingers! So, overall, many thanks and I look forward to my next meal at Guildford Parkway.  Allan Woolston.”

“Delicious pizza! Enjoyed it with the family.”

“The food here is very much a six star award. Service exemplary. I gave 4 stars for atmosphere because, sadly, we were the only people in the dining area on a Friday night. I guess all other diners were savouring the heady delights of a Big Mac! They don't know what they are missing. I would also guess that being an hotel people mistakenly have the impression that it is just that, somewhere to sleep and have breakfast before you go elsewhere. MISTAKE! If you like good food in clean surroundings with good professional service, then they The Mandolay. You won't be disappointed.”

“A great taste of Latin America, not Tex Mex. Even a couple of Mexican friends think the churros as good as back home. I forgive the grammatical error of their name.”

“Amazing pizzas. Got the food delivered. Affordable prices. Recommend their wings as well. Will buy again.”

“im 45 years old and am a takeaway expert having takeaways 5 times a week.... The hulk burger is by far without a shadow of doubt the best burger i have ever eaten always cooked to perfection.. Always arrives piping hot.. Very polite drivers.... 11/10 ***** 5 star”
