This pub is situated in the centre of he village of Cobham and has plenty of parking at the rear and field area for kids to play in.

 
It is also licensed to hold Civil Weddings in the beamed loft conversion seating 50 people.  I mention this because this was the reason I was there.  I attended a wedding on Easter Monday for about 30 people and thought I would write a report as our food was really good so presumably the normal pub food would be similar.  Lunches are served between 12 and 2.30 and evening meals between 6.00 and 9.30.  Traditional Sunday lunch between 12noon and 2pm.
 
We were given a choice of starters - prawn cocktail, soup, melon or pate.  Followed by chicken in a cream sauce, salmon in a prawn and cheesy sauce, beef in  red wine sauce, all served with new potatoes, peas and carrots.  The food was hot and tasty.  Our sweet was small meringue nests filled with cream and fresh strawberries.  There was also a choice of main courses for the children.  I understand from the "happy couple" that they were charged £21 per head.  This included coffee or tea and wine on the table or soft drinks. 
 
Can thoroughly recommend for a small wedding, the intimate friendly atmosphere was most enjoyable. The only drawback it would not be possible to get a wheelchair up to the room where the wedding was held.  But obviously for normal pub grub etc. that is all on one level. 
 
Yummy factor 7/10

 Report by SM .

The higher the "Yummy" factor, the better the food & service.  The higher the number of £ signs the more expensive.  ( Roughly one £ sign = £5 per head )
