We had 10 different dishes between us and all were excellent. The service was friendly and accommodating when we asked for slight changes to the dishes. The food was fresh and well presented and overall we had a great evening for a midweek night out.
It was beautiful lovely food grate atmosphere would well recommend x
Amazing roast dinner, perfectly cooked and presented. And one of the best chocolate brownies i've ever tasted. Great food, great service and a great pub.
Excellent pub, and lovely atmosphere. Good drink choice and some delicious puddings on offer. Dog friendly in the bar area and made to feel very welcome. Would definitely return.
We arrived early but were told as soon as table cleared we would be seated. Staff attentive and called us as soon as possible. The quality of the food and service were excellent We enjoyed it very much.
it was a very enjoyable evening the food was tasty and the menu interesting. the staff were helpful,polite and non intrusive. The atmosphere was one of interested conversation
Fantastic tasty food and huge portions. Lovely country pub feel and very friendly helpful staff. Had a great family meal. Would definitely come again soon
The managers decision to ban 16 year old's from drinking alcohol with their meal seems discourteous & unnecessary when with family - it meant our son could not join us in toasting his grandmother's birthday. Otherwise the food was excellent as was the beer, though my lamb was cold.
Always good food and service ! Never disappointed have been going for the last 6 Year’s and food always tasty! They do birthdays and weddings!
Food very good as usual but disappointed that when taking our order our server did not inform us that there were specials available. We only realised that some were available when the table next to ours were informed. We would definitely have ordered the Chateaubriand.
Food v good even though they forgot my cheese on my burger. V busy which is good to see. All staff v proficient in their work. Would definitely go again in the not too distant future
First time we'd ever been to The bird in hand and it's very safe to say it won't be our last. My girlfriend and I both walked away from the pub after an amazing meal saying it was the best meal of our lives
Lovely pub, lovely food, always have a good experience at the Bird in hand. Staff friendly and efficient. Both bar and restaurant lovely for eating at.

Lovely setting, friendly staff. Lots of food to choose from. We visited for lunch and the food was good. Very good selection of ales. Would recommend
We enjoyed our evening and the food was great but the service was a bit slow but having said that the restaurant was packed so they were very busy. Will definitely be going back there.
Great location and pub. Service was very friendly and fast too. Unfortunately the food on this occasion did not represent good value and was not particularly memorable. £35 per head for 3 courses plus £10 per head supplement to half chateaubriand which was brought out barely lukewarm and we sent it back. Scallops starter was also not particularly hot. I think this was probably the wrong night to go (Valentines), I’ve heard only good reviews from friends so I will try again.
Friendly staff. Lovely meal well presented. I would have liked a better option for vegetables. There were no potatoes with the lamb. Mushrooms were in a few dishes I wanted but I do not like them. Even though I asked for them not to be on my plate, I had to pay extra for the potatoes making it a rather expensive meal. It was beautiful though!
Food was nice but overpriced and the menu wasn’t as nice as I remember it being. Nice environment and staff friendly. Nice country pub experience but very expensive at £86 for two. Only 2 alcoholic drinks.
Very disappointing this time. The quality of the Chateaubriand meat was excellent but should have been medium rare, not rare. The chips were soggy and the tender stem broccoli was dried up. The desserts sounded interesting and the presentation was good but again disappointing. The service was good as usual.
Our waiter . Aiden? could not do enough for us and made it a most pleasurable experience. ewerethere woth opur friend who is wheelchair bound and he made sure she was comfortable. The food was delicious and we will deintely be repeating our experience. Thank you
Second time coming here, was a lot less busy than last time and we had our food within 10 minutes of ordering! The food was excellent again!
Had a steak sanwich off the lunch menu, hardly any steak in sandwich told the waitress and more steak arrived bread was toasted but not very nice. Had lovely sweet potatoes very nice. Been there several times not the best this time.
Great food, super service and helpful staff. What more can you want.We ate early but were glad we had booked as the pub filled quite quickly.
I've been here numerous times now and as always it never fails to deliver. It really is my go to restaurant for all occasions when I'm back visiting. Looking forward to another visit soon
Great staff and service. Food good too. Went for breakfast and a little chilly in the bar and restaurant. Appreciate cold winter. Would have been good to have a couple of papers.
Great service and atmosphere and food outstanding - staff attentive and polite - would definitely recommend . The manager Amy was visible throughout the evening and clearly has rapport with both staff and customers

Great food. Very busy on a Saturday night which slowed down service but otherwise a good atmosphere and friendly staff. Another quieter night would have improved service.
This is a lovely restaurant with a lovely atmosphere, the staff were very friendly and welcoming and the food was delicious! Would definitely come back here!
Lush Sunday lunch. Puddings didn’t live up to expectation however
lovely meal and the staff were friendly and helpful with my dietary requirements. I regularly go to the Bird in Hand and I would recommend it.
Excellent informative welcome, warm roaring fire with fine food and the service was wonderful thank you. We had a great evening and will be back.
The meal was delicious and the service was excellent. Staff were extremely friendly and welcoming, creating a lovely atmosphere. Thank you very much for a great evening.
The staff were randomly helpful. The menu varied with a particularly great "specials board" to select from and the food was delicious and the venison leg was a "Flintstone" size!
Love the beef roast and it comes with a great choice of vegetables and the setting is so cosy with a real fire on a cold day

We had a lovely roast dinner there followed by a delicious dessert,the staff were excellent and attentive would most definitely go back we have a anniversary coming up .
A very pleasant evening spent in this pub restaurant. Good food. Good service. Caters well for gluten free diet. We have never been disappointed. Eaten here many times.
Great food and friendly staff. Now one of our favourite places to eat in Woking. We've yet to be disappointed at the Bird in Hand.
A beautiful pub/restaurant in the countryside. With log fires burning creating the smell of a welcoming country home you get great food in a comfy setting with excellent service. Definitely recommend if you want somewhere new to try.
Lovely Sunday Dinner, good staff and nice ambience. one of my favourite places to eat, I am lucky that this pub is within walking distance to me would highly recommend the Bird in Hand to anyone.

First time we have been here a really lovely place to eat and the service was very good didn't get the young girls name who served us but she was excellent . WIll be returning .
Excellent meal for 2 in front of a crackling log burner; cheerful and attentive staff. Scallops were cooked “just-so”and the terriyaki salmon delicious. Highly recommended.
We had a lovely evening. The staff were attentive and the food delicious. The food took a while to come out after ordering so we were unexoectedly given a free bottle of wine to compensate. We actually didn't mind the wait but the bottle was well received. A lovely evening would recommend.
Service was good, food of high quality and nicely presented. I liked the selections of gin and tonics. Was very busy in the bar area but think there was a party.
Service was good but steaks were both over cooked, management did offer us free deserts which were very nice. Will definitely make a return visit.
With a full car park when we arrived I expected a slow service, but no, good quality food and really attentive staff made it an excellent evening. Would highly recommend
A very warm welcome and good service . The food was good but there were a couple of minor issues- the terrine starter was straight out of the fridge and could have done with being brought to room temperature to bring out the ( very good) flavours and the vegetable Wellington had a large quantity of uncooked pastry inside. This was easy to scrape out once I’d realised what it was- being the same colour as the parsnips I ate quite a lot of it before I realised. (Not so nice) The dessert idea of a smaller portion with a coffee for £5 is excellent . Would visit again but with a few tweaks this food would be excellent.
The service and food was excellent A restaurant I would definitely return to. As a vegetarian there was several choices to choose from the menu
Food was good, atmosphere very good. But the service was very poor, as we were seated in a corner of the bar and ignored almost entirely by the staff; everytime we wanted to order or ask for something, we had to go up to the bar and ask, nobody came over, even though we could see our waiter chatting and serving people behind the bar. Equally, paying £18 for a meal, I was very dissapointed by the size of the meal. This would not have been a problem if the food was good, but it was no better than and actually worse than other places, in similiar locations, who charge far less for more of a portion. Very dissapointed considering I have been a loyal and returning customer of the Bird in Hand for a number of years.
food on point. lovely restaurant. never dissapointed with the food.
Enjoyed our visit to the Bird in Hand. Service was very quick if a little too quick not giving us much time in-between courses. My duck was lovely just how I ordered it. The sea bass was very good and the accompanying veg was lovely and well cooked. I really enjoyed the red merlot.
