Best Restaurants for Outdoor Dining in Cranleigh

We enjoyed our lunch at the Star. I am vegetarian so I particularly appreciated having a very good vegetarian dish. The service was excellent and the staff were very tolerant of my learning disabled sister and her habit of doing a jigsaw while waiting for food! We felt very comfortable.

This is a treasure and exudes good taste. An instantly warm welcome from interested, intelligent and engaging staff. Good to meet Andrew who’s running it with grace and professionalism, honed from years of experience in Michelin starred places. The conservatory dining area is an elegant, nicely illuminated, well laid out and acoustically friendly area, ideal for conversation and thank goodness, with no mindless music, just the gentle hubbub of gastronomic appreciation. We had lunch with our octogenarian relative. I chose the vegan, butternut squash terrine….an exquisitely delicious triumph, the best I’ve ever eaten and a work of art! My husband’s burger, sumptuous beef, excellently seasoned, in a delightful brioche bun with beautiful chips. My mother in law chose gammon, perfectly tender and a ‘just right’ portion. Afterwards, very good coffee as our digestive. Later, we walked through to the older part of the pub and found a wonderful fireplace and cosy, seating areas that we’ll look forward to trying next time. This really is the nicest pub/restaurant and a discerning gourmet’s choice. We loved it and will be back.

I chose the Greene Oak for a family birthday meal as the food never disappoints and we always receive great service. Today was no exception and they even did a small birthday dessert as a surprise which was much appreciated. We will be back again soon!

Very nice atmosphere. Staff were helpful, checked about allergies before taking our order. Bread on Bruschetta was overly crunchy and very difficult to cut. Main course of crab ravioli was very nice but could have been hotter. Nice touch of my friend and I to receive a birthday dessert which was lovely. would definitely try the restaurant again.

Really nice service and welcome. It was my Dad’s birthday and the chef made a birthday plate for us which was a really special touch. Thank you.
