Best Contemporary British Restaurants in Dorking

A beautiful spot nestled in the Surrey Hills. Food was lovely, high quality and neatly presented. Service was great and everyone very friendly. A great find!

Very attentive to a gluten allergy, and lots of options on the festive a la carte menu.

We opted for the seasonal set menu….it was delicious. The Turkey Ballotine and the shepherds pie was delicious, my husband really enjoyed the shepherds pie saying it was rich & full of meat. I was going to order the snowman pudding which was served under a cloche and when lifted, wafted smoke/ dry ice …… love the theatre but it looked quite big so we went for the chocolate bomb …. delicious. Really lovely restaurant, the staff are all very friendly and the whole place was very festive. Lastly, it was our wedding anniversary… when we’d finished our meal our server came over with a chocolate profiterole with Happy Anniversary written on a chocolate square… lovely little touch. We would definitely come back here…. we really enjoyed our experience.

A wonderful lunch. Service spot on. Ambiance lovely. Food amazing. The Ivy never disappoints.

We had a really nice evening. Everything was as expected, service, food, ambiance all excellent
