Had a great meal at The Grumpy Mole on Friday evening. We hadn't booked but took a chance and just turned up. We asked to sit outside and found a lovely spot on the terrace under the shade of a welcome parasol. Our waitress was very efficient, friendly and polite. The food was served in a timely manner and everything felt relaxed and very welcoming. The two starters we enjoyed were the smoked salmon parcel and cheese bacon potato skins, both absolutely sublime. For mains we had the Cajun burger with fries, coleslaw and salad, and calves liver, bacon, onions with mash and vegetables. Both delicious. Everything cooked to our liking, so very happy tummies! Can't wait to return here for another great meal in a lovely setting. Had to add another review, as we went back for a great lunch on Saturday. It was a very rainy day but that was completely forgotten the moment we entered The Royal Oak. The waiting staff were absolutely brilliant, made us feel so welcome and valued. We were offered a very cosy table in The Alcove. We chose the lamb rump with Dauphinoise potatoes and vegetables, and the Steak and ale pie with new potatoes and vegetables. Absolutely delicious! This place has become a real gem and the staff appear so committed to giving you a really special experience. A big thanks to everyone at the Grumpy Mole Oxted!
Food was tasty, but not as good as a time we went ~4 years ago, in general felt like more standard nice pub food. Service was pretty bad, had to ask for extra menus rather than just the single one on the table, took a long time to get orders in, they almost brought us a duplicate starter and mains took a very long time to arrive. But worse for the table next to us they'd been seated before we arrived, received starters when we did, and only got their mains in the end when our dessert turned up! At some point a manager had come over to ask whether they'd like to order a dessert, and they said they were still waiting for their main! Parking is absolutely atrocious, some lines on the ground in their car park would definitely let a few more cars park either side as it is people leave a metre or so between cars, heavily limiting who can fit!
Great little country pub, lovely food from an interesting menu. Good choice for wine, attentive friendly staff. Definitely worth a try, only downside is that the car parking is a bit limited so would be best to get an early table.
Now this is a really nice local pub. perfect for a beautiful summer pint outside, but the inner is also really beautiful. the menu looked great. we will be coming out
nice pub eat here today. great service and great food! delicious and hot. a real tasty bite!
