Guest Beers (5)This 15th century pub has been very well renovated and it is now a successful mix of old and modern. The front is very attractive being covered in hanging baskets. Inside wooden floors, good solid tables (found throughout) and subdued lighting help to create a warm atmosphere. There is a single bar but, with four separate areas coming off it, there are quiet parts to be found. Both the front and rear areas have wood panelling and a separate room, 'Narnia', which can be booked for functions, can be reached via the back left corner of the bar. Between these the walls are painted in subtle tones. It is only over 21s after 9pm. Outside there is a very good patio garden with some 'beach huts' with heaters at the top. Originally a Courage pub, it was bought by Young's in 1989, changing its name from the Old House at Home in March 2013 and became a Punch pub in 2021. Home cooked, locally sourced food is available 12-3 and 6-9 Wednesday to Friday, 12-4 and 6-9 Saturday and 12-4 Sunday. The guest beers are often from Dorking, Laines or SlyBeast. There is live music on Fridays, dogs are welcome and there is free Wi-Fi. (until 9pm) (Dorking West) (see above) Symbols explained Last Updated: 09 Apr 2022
