Inn On The Lake Godalming

You're heading down Ockford Road and suddenly the trees open up to water. That's the moment. The Inn sits right on the lake's edge—genuinely unusual for round here—and they've made smart choices about what to do with that advantage. Inside, it's unpretentious but well-kept; the sort of place where locals mix with people who've driven out specifically for lunch. The kitchen does solid gastropub cooking: think elevated comfort food rather than trying too hard. Sunday roasts pull a crowd for good reason.
