      Built in 1938 by Watney's and named in honour of the 1937 Derby winner, the first to be owned by a woman, Mrs G B Miller. Ironically, it later was bought by the Magic Pub Company and re-named the Hungry Horse. Fortunately it has reverted back to its proper name but it still carries that epithet which is used by the current owners, Greene King, for their chain of budget, family oriented food outlets. There are two separate bars, the right-hand one, which has a pool table, being the public. The left hand bar is made up of several different areas with ramps to the higher levels. It is mostly given over to food but there is a TV showing sport (another TV can be found in the public bar). There are some tables at the front. Children are allowed in the bar until 6pm. Camra members get a 10% discount on real ales on production of a valid membership card.

    • Rambler's Rest Outwood Lane Chipstead CR5 3NP Telephone(01737) 552661

      A rambling collection of old buildings once known as Dene Farm, with records dating back to 1301 although the oldest surviving building dates from the time of Queen Elizabeth I. It ceased to operate as a farm in 1932 when it became a teashop charging 1/3d for cream teas! After the war some of the outbuildings were turned into a large antique shop and in 1966 the whole lot was sold and became a restaurant. In 1993 Whitbread bought it and turned it into a pub. It is unashamedly food oriented and the whole operation is geared up for this, with numbered tables throughout the bar and garden. There is also a separate restaurant to the left as you enter. Sadly little of the original interior survives, as most of the internal walls have been knocked out for open plan drinking/dining. However there are some exposed beams, flag-stoned floors and several real fires as well as a few more secluded areas. Food is available every day from 12-10 (10:30 Saturday and 9:30 Sunday). As well as he standard menus, a vegan menu is also offered. On Sunday roasts are available all day. The guest beer comes from the M&B list and changes monthly.

      A large, attractive Grade II listed 16th Century pub which started life at the right-hand end of a terrace and gradually expanded into successive adjoining cottages over the years. A major refurbishment took place at the end of 2023 and this resulted in the moving of the bar and the pub becoming more focused on dining. There are still a number of side areas for more intimate eating and drinking. Two ghosts are said to haunt the pub. The origins of the stone bear at the front are unclear. One source has it that it arrived here from Piccadilly Circus; another says it replaced an earlier design in wood and is said to be around 200 years old. One thing is certain; it narrowly escaped being kidnapped by Polish pilots from Biggin Hill at the end of World War Two! Views of planes taking off from Biggin Hill Airport can be had from the garden. Hard to find for the uninitiated but a pub well worth seeking out! As well as a large car park, there are secure storage facilities for bikes. There is a large patio area at the back and a separate cabin, the Baby Bear, which is used as an outside bar and kitchen. Two beers are regularly available with a third brewery supplied beer on occasion -m all are from Brakspear.. The separate drinks menu found on the bar lists many tipples available but makes no mention of the cask ales.

    • Seven Stars Bunce Common Road, Dawes Green Leigh RH2 8NP Telephone(01306) 611254

      This very attractive two bar tile-hung inn has been a pub since at least 1637. Evidence of this can be found in the saloon bar where part of the wall, covered by glass for protection, has written on it "Gentlemen, you are welcome to sit at your ease, pay what you call for and drink what you please", William Eades, 1637. It is rumoured that the Seven Stars was mentioned by Ben Johnson, the first Poet Laureate, who is said to have lived for a while at nearby Swaynes Farm. As Ben Johnson died in 1637, this would make the pub even older. The original pub was just the small top part of the bar, and the original entrance can be seen from the front of the building by the painted central door. Externally the pub is covered in hanging baskets and window boxes and there are gardens to the rear and front.

  • Merstham
    • Feathers 42 High Street (A23) Merstham RH1 3EA Telephone(01737) 645643

      Imposing Grade II listed multi-balconied and half-timbered edifice which displays much evidence of the arts and crafts movement. Although the multitude of tiny wood-framed ground floor windows with their circular dimples seem in keeping with the architecture, two attractive frosted and etched door windows (one exterior, one interior) depicting the Prince of Wales's feathers hint at the existence of an earlier scheme. Other stained and leaded examples on the north side suggest a later extension has been incorporated into the pub proper. Though internal divisions have long-gone, careful retention and modification of the original heavy wooden bar, plus differing styles of decor, help divide the pub up into distinctive areas. The mix of contemporary and original seems to work well here and appears popular with young and old alike. Other features worthy of note are a superb mirror, plus a large number of small cast-iron fireplaces which "shout" Art Nouveau!Families are welcome before 6pm.

    • Sportsman Mogador Road Mogador KT20 7ES Telephone(01737) 246655

      A little gem of a pub, well off the beaten track, situated on the edge of Walton Heath amidst excellent walking and horse riding country. Parts of the pub date from the 16th century, although most of the current building is of later construction possibly early Victorian. There is an attractive tiled portico running the length of the frontage with bench seating to keep the rain off which can be used by smokers. It was built as a lodge on Royal hunting grounds and would almost certainly have been used by Henry VIII and his entourage. Today it is a cosy and welcoming split-levelled one bar establishment with a 60 seat restaurant serving good and interesting food which can be split into two by a screen so that the back part can be used as a function room. At times, especially warm weekends, it can get very busy, with an eclectic mix of walkers, cyclists, dedicated drinkers, diners, etc... yet at other times, it will be very quiet with a loyal band of regulars propping up the bar and soaking up the atmosphere along with the fine ale. There is a garden to the side as well as tables at the front. Food is served 12-10 Monday to Saturday, and from 12-8:30ish on Sunday. The guests come from a mixture of large and small brewers and may be local, so you may see anything from Greene King, Fuller's, Otter and Wychwood to Hogs Back and Clarence & Fredericks represented on the bar. There is a real fire by the entrance to the restaurant from the pub and dogs are welcome in the bar. Newspapers and WiFi are available. This is not an easy pub to find but we recommend you make the effort.

The original premises are recalled in a photograph of 1880 displayed inside. Surviving etched glass windows lettered "public bar", "saloon bar", "club room" and "coffee room" help give some idea how the building would have been divided and operated around 100 years ago. Displayed on the top shelf above the front bar are an amazing and possibly now unique set of five stubby ceramic-handled handpumps sitting on a pewter base inscribed "Hurst & Co. of Southwark". These were formerly the top of the casing which was built into the bar counter and were in daily use untyil a recent refurbishment.

The floor of the area round the pool table has a vinyl-type surface, while the rest of the pub has carpeted areas where tables and chairs are placed, with pathways of bare wooden boards between the tables and round the bar. There is an attractive beer garden. Food is served from 1-5 Saturday and Sunday and a pizza van is parked outside from 5 to 9 on Saturday. It is next door to the well known Ruchita Indian Restaurant.

    • Plough Inn 11 Church Road, St Johns Redhill RH1 6QE Telephone(01737) 766686

      Parts of this welcoming and characterful pub date back to the 16th century and over time the premises have seen the typical expansion into adjoining properties and outhouses, gaining all sorts of nooks and crannies in the process. The ceiling in parts is extremely low, even for buildings of this kind; whilst a set of flagstones in the back bar are said to be around 400 years old and were reputedly used as an influence in the set design of a Harry Potter film. There are several real fires. The pub was originally owned by Mellersh & Neale, Reigate brewers, eventually becoming a Friary Meux badged pub before being bought by Punch Taverns and there is a nice old photo of the pub in its Mellersh & Neale livery. A charming, characterful, and cosy pub selling excellent food which is available 12-3 and 6-9 on Monday, Wednesday and Thursday, 12-9:30 Friday and Saturday and 12-5:30 Sunday.

Children under 10 are not allowed in the pub. The number of beers available will vary with sometimes just one being available on Monday before the pub closes on Tuesday and then increasing at the weekend. One guest beer is usually from a local brewery, normally Pilgrim or Surrey Hills, and the other may be something like Fuller's London Pride or Timothy Taylor Landlord. If custom continues to improve an extra beer may be available and the Tuesday closure may be reviewed. There is a weekly quiz.

To the left is the 'lounge' which is home to some comfy chairs, a large screen TV for major sporting events. The 'public bar' to the right has less seating while all around the bar are a number of bar stools. Little of the nautical theme remains to link this pub to its name other than a circular window on each door with an etched ship's wheel. A recent extension houses a proper pizza oven and food from this is also available to take away. Food is served each day from 3-10. The guest beer tends to be from a microbrewery.

      Formerly a cosy country pub of character, the Black Horse has been refurbished, the bar moved from the centre of the pub to one end, and the walls brightly painted. From the car park the route to the bar is past a wooden floored dining room. This leads to a number of drinking areas where there are several comfortable sofas along with more conventional tables and chairs. Having some slightly raised areas breaks these up. However, ramps allow all parts to be accessible to the disabled and there are a couple of disabled parking spaces. The disabled toilet also has a baby change. Doors open out from the back onto a large garden with a lot of tables for when the weather is suitable.

      The origins of the pub are 17th century and there are some old beams and an open fireplace from this time. Today's pub has a spacious L-shaped bar with wooden floorboards.

The menu is mainly burgers, small dishes and sandwiches, supplemented by specials which change weekly, and is served 12-9. The guest beer is likely to be from Pilgrim brewery just a few yards down the road. Sky and BT are available and occasionally there is live music. Thursday night is quiz night.

      One of the oldest pubs in Reigate, the Bulls Head has been a pub since 1628 according to a plaque inside, and is a converted coaching house. The name derives from the town abattoir which used to be nearby. Inside are two levels, with the top level laid for diners and there is a garden which can be accessed by the slope by the pub or down stairs from within the pub. It is another one of those pubs which do not rely on gimmicks to pull the customers in, just good service and a friendly atmosphere with some old photos of Reigate on the walls. In the summer there may sometime be a BBQ in the garden and maybe live music as well on a Saturday afternoon. Food is available each lunchtime with roasts on Sunday.

      Conveniently located beside Reigate railway station, the Prince of Wales was refurbished inside and out in September 2013. In the 1800s the building was used to house railway workers. The garden, which backs onto the railway line, used to be a loading area for cattle bought and sold at Reigate market, and until the 1990s, British Rail still used to own it. Today the garden has a covered and seated smoking area. The pub is divided into three main drinking areas, all served from the same U-shaped bar. The main bar has a stripped wood floor and scrubbed deal tables, giving a bright airy feel. Prints of old Reigate adorn the walls.

  • Reigate Heath
    • Skimmington Castle Bonny's Road Reigate Heath RH2 8RL Telephone(01737) 243100

      The Skimmington Castle started life as a farm 400 years ago. It became a pub in 1825 but in recent years has been more akin to a restaurant than pub, especially at weekends, meaning that drinkers may find all the tables taken by diners. The pub has a great location though, and on a sunny day, the beer garden is a wonderful place to enjoy a few pints, with or without a meal. Three beers are usually available, with the Pilgrim beer sometimes changing to Progress. Inside there are a number of rooms, including one down a few steep steps (where families are permitted), all served by the one bar. This is very much a cosy pub with lots of atmosphere. Low ceilings and a real fire only help to enhance this. Reigate Heath is a popular spot for walkers and the Skim is a favourite stopping off place for them. Note that Bonny's Road is a small turning off Flanchford Road, and cuts across the golf course. Speed humps mean you must go slowly. The pub is very dog friendly.

Parts of the building date from the 18th century. This was the miller's house, although very little remains of the old mill can be now seen in the stream that runs alongside. The pub has several separate areas and is divided into a small drinking area and a restaurant. The drinking area has an inglenook, some original beams and a few photos of the old mill on its walls, with a TV on the end wall.

    • William Bray Shere Lane Shere GU5 9HS Telephone(01483) 202275

      Set in a prominent position just a short way above the centre of the village, this large pub focuses on food. It has a bar with a wood burning stove, a new conservatory (which can be booked for functions) and a restaurant, with tables outside as well. Breakfast is served 9-11 all week, lunch is 12-3 during the week and 12-6 at the weekend. In the evening food is served 6-9:30 Monday to Saturday. The only difference between the lunch and evening menus is that sandwiches are only available at lunchtime.

  • South Godstone
    • Fox & Hounds Tilburstow Hill Road South Godstone RH9 8LY Telephone(01342) 893474

      A most attractive building, parts of which date back to 1368. It became a pub in 1601 and the first landlord was Thomas Hart, a tenant of Pendell Manor near Bletchingley. As well as brewing and selling its own beer, at one time it also served as a post office and blacksmith. There are several original beams throughout and a large inglenook in the restaurant. The lower bar also benefits from a real fire. Look for the gaiter of a former pirate turned smuggler, John Trenchman, who died in the cellar of the pub after being pursued by the King's revenue men. Legend has it that if this gaiter is removed, his ghost returns to haunt the pub. His earthly remains lie in Godstone churchyard. A former Westerham Brewery house until 1965, it passed to Ind Coope, later to become part of Allied Breweries until it was sold to Greene King in the late 90s and is now owned by Hawthorn Leisure. The pub has a deserved reputation for good food, which is sold both in the restaurant and bar (booking recommended), as well as for its excellent beer. The bar area is low ceilinged and very cosy with high back settles. There is a pleasant garden at the rear with an umbrella for smokers and a children's play area. There are up to three guest beers with Hogs Back often featuring as well as local breweries such as Dorking and Weltons.

  • Tadworth
    • Blue Anchor Dorking Road (B2032) Tadworth KT20 5SL Telephone(01737) 819760

      An odd name for a pub located in landlocked Surrey, although at least there is such an item affixed to this 1930s former Charrington pub's exterior. Although effectively a single bar pub by having only one counter providing service, there are also separate dining and snug bar areas. This is a mostly food oriented establishment, with meals available throughout the day from 12-10 (9 Sunday).

    • Duke's Head Dorking Road Tadworth KT20 5SL Telephone(01737) 812173

      The main thing to notice during the summer is the fantastic flower display from the numerous hanging baskets on the front of the pub. The pub itself is an attractive red brick building with ground-floor shallow bow-fronted windows. Inside, little if any original features survive and the effect is open plan with different styles of seating areas with many dining tables. Good food is served all day and there are roasts on Sunday. There are two real fires. The pub was acquired by the Reigate brewery of Mellersh & Neale from R&F Pagden of Epsom in 1931, and was rebuilt in 1932. It ended its brewery owned days under the Friary Meux badge of the Allied umbrella and has now become a freehouse, having previously been a Punch leasehold. KT20 is Shepherd Neame Masterbrew and refers to the pub postcode. A keg ale and a lager also have names reflecting the pub's location. and is sold as the house bitter. Children are welcome away from the bar.

      Set in an isolated and elevated position (850 feet, 259 metres), this is the highest pub in south-east England. It is on the edge of Titsey Plantation, and on land owned by the Titsey Foundation and has splendid views towards London. This white-rendered building was once a farmhouse dating from 1546. Local landowners, the Greshams, built the Royal Exchange in the City of London in 1571, and a grasshopper, which forms part of their family crest, can be found on the pub signage. It only entered licensed use comparatively recently (1994) having previously been tea-rooms since 1936. The inside is a cosy blend of low ceilings and doorways, real fires, three separate drinking areas and a little nook and cranny are all served by a longitudinal bar running the length of the rear. Three beers on sale are from the Titsey Brewery which is located in farm buildings near the pub with another from Westerham. In the Grasshopper room there is an unusual fireplace with an engraved mantelpiece believed to Turkish in origin. Similar engravings can be found on the flagstones as well. The pub is arguably the closest to the exclusive and "dry" village of Woldingham on the high ridge of the North Downs and the pub is almost on the North Downs Way. The Greenwich Meridian bisects the site. Although the layout of the listed building means that the toilets are accessed using steps the pub has a side entrance with a bell for wheelchairs and the staff will do their best to help. Dogs are welcome in the stone flagged part of the bar to the right as you enter the pub, but not on Sunday. WiFi is available and there are papers at the end of the bar, there is a baby change area in the ladies and outside there is a table with an umbrella for smokers. Note that the pub is closed on Tuesday.

    • Scarlett Arms Walliswood Green Road Walliswood RH5 5RD Telephone(01306) 627243

      Named after Sir James Scarlett, the first Baron of Abinger, the pub was built as two cottages in 1620, becoming a pub in 1907. It is the epitome of the traditional country pub with a stone-flagged floor and oak beams. There are several different drinking and eating areas. Immediately in front of the small bar dispense area there are stone slabs on the floor. This leads to the main bar area; this has wooden flooring. The highlight here is an inglenook containing a lovely open fire. Behind here is another cosy room with low ceilings and a stove. To the right of the bar is another room, this one with parquet flooring and another fire. This leads to a smaller room with a couple of tables and a dartboard and another stove. Throughout the pub are good wooden tables to sit at. The guest beer will be a seasonal ale from Badger. Outside is a very pleasant garden with a bouncy castle, a play area with tyres and a wild flower area. The car park opposite is not owned by the pub but they maintain it and their customers are the main users.

      This is a real gem which is hidden away off the road and a certain determination is required from the first time visitor to discover it! Turn off by the pond and keep turning right - it really is there! The pub is down bumpy tracks so don't rush. This ex-Charrington's (previously Page & Overton's) pub combines the far end of a short terrace of cottages together with a 1950s red brick-built extension into what presumably would have been the front garden. The cosy, low-ceilinged, welcoming interior still consists of separate parquet floored public and carpeted saloon bars, both furnished with genuine bric-a-brac which can be found above the bar area on on ledges on the walls, plus real fires. Darts is also played, but you need to bring your own darts as none are available from the bar. The former Charrington's ownership is recalled by the leaded windows and illuminated wooden bar back. The pub dates back to around 1854 and remained an Ale House without a spirits licence until c.1950. Known locally as 'The Rat', from days gone by when stable lads from nearby Epsom Downs used to frequent it. Recommended on the Camra list of Historic Pub Interiors.

    • Blue Ball Deans Lane Walton-on-the- Hill KT20 7UE Telephone(01737) 819003

      Facing Walton Heath and overlooking the village pond, the pub is named after the centre of a racing winning post. The original 1880 building has gained a later ground floor extension along the length of its front. Inside, the bar sits to the right, neatly dividing the floor space up between a front bar, a small side area round a fireplace and a rear dining room which has a central wood burning stove and leads to an outside decking area. There are also all weather wooden huts for dining outside down the side of the pub. The pub originally belonged to W F Hodgson's Kingston Brewery until its acquisition by Courage in 1943 and there is little to see of the original 1880 building. At the front is a wooden floored area which acts as the bar area. This leads to a large dining area which is split into smaller sections. The menu changes frequently and features a number of dishes cooked on the premises. Meals are served all day from 12-9:30 (8:30 on Sundays). There is free Wi-Fi and papers and dogs are welcome in the bar area at the front. There are a couple of disabled parking spaces in front of the pub and baby change facilities inside.

    • Chequers Chequers Lane (B2220) Walton-on-the- Hill KT20 7SF Telephone(01737) 812364

      Parts of this pub date from 1815 and it once incorporated a brewhouse and bakery. Today the pub has been much altered and this Young's outpost has an attractive red brick and half-timbered exterior which conceals a central servery adjoined by at least five interconnecting bars and seating areas, each with its own character and atmosphere. The largest bar is the Garden bar to the rear, and this has a small wood-burning stove plus plenty of mismatched wooden tables. The pub was once the terminus of London General bus route 180 (later 80A) and there was a semi-circular bus pull-in immediately in front of the pub. A large garden at the back hosts barbecues and has a Burger Shack in the spring and summer months; there is also plenty of seating outside the front of the pub. Food is served 10-9 Monday to Thursday, 10-10 Friday and Saturday and 12-9 Sunday. One of the guest beers is almost always from a local brewery with the other guest either also being from a local brewery or from the Young's stable.

    • White Lion 3 Farleigh Road Warlingham CR6 9EG Telephone(01883) 625085

      There is little to detract from the most attractive façade of this ancient building, the oldest part being the middle section which is believed to date from 1467, when it was a farm house with attached cottages. It has been a pub since at least 1784 from which date all its innkeepers have been recorded. It is flanked to the left by a pretty tile hung building and to the right by a rather out of character extension dating from around 1900, which replaced the original stable block. The interior is a warren of rooms ancient and modern. The nooks and crannies are a delight to explore but do watch your head! Building work a few years ago added a kitchen and improved access to the garden. The blend of old with contemporary does actually seem to work well together. The cask beer is reasonably priced (and are even cheaper on Monday). CAMRA members receive a discount on the real ales on production of their membership card. Food is available all day from 12-10. Dogs are welcome in the old bar.
