The March Hare, A Heartwood Inn

Walk up South Hill towards the town centre and you'll find yourself in one of Guildford's better-kept corners. The March Hare sits here with the confidence of a place that knows what it's doing—no faffing about, just solid execution. The Heartwood Inn group has done good things with this spot, turning it into somewhere you'd genuinely want to spend an evening rather than just pass through. The bar program is genuinely thoughtful, and there's enough going on with the food menu to make you want to linger over something proper, not just grab a quick pint.
