The Surrey

You head down Hermitage Road in St John's towards Knaphill and find yourself at the kind of pub that doesn't need to shout about itself. The Surrey's the neighbourhood favourite that's been pulling in regulars for years—the sort of place where the staff know what you drink before you ask. It's a Greene King operation, so the beer selection's reliable and well-kept, and the food menu covers all the bases without trying to be something it's not. Whether you're after a proper Sunday roast or just a pint and some chips after work, there's an uncomplicated friendliness here that makes you want to come back.
