I’m down in Leatherhead for a three nights with work next week. Any recommendations for somewhere good to eat mid-week?

Also any decent pubs?

The italian on the high street is surprisingly good (vecchia trattoria), particularly at lunch time when they do a £5 menu.

All the pubs in lhd are shite; you need to go out of town for the decent (expensive) pubs. Cobham and Stoke d’Abernon have quite a few.

Dave (used to work there, but have now escaped!!)

The Vecchia is rubbish except for the pizzas which are very good. Try the Piazza Firenze instead.

The best Indian restaurant is the “Five Rivers” in North Street on the way to the bridge.

The best pub is The Running Horses just before the bridge. Tiny saloon bar but some decent beers – mostly Shepherd Neame with one guest beer.

Wetherspoons at the top of the High Street is a dump, but does carry some good beers.

Head out to Frascati’s restaurant for some authentic Italian food 😯

nuke 😆

+1 for the Piazza Firenze for Italian. Five Rivers is the best Curry. Penny Black and Running Horses are best of a bad bunch for pubs. I heard mixed reports on the Thai opposite the Piazza Firenze..

If you like Chinese food, I’ve never tried it, but the menu looks good at the “Zen Garden” over the bridge just outside Fetcham…

The Five Rivers is our favourite local curry house and Prezzo our favourite Italian.

3 nights and you will have exhuasted Leatherheads supply of good resturants.

Edit – the Zen garden is very poor.

But not the menus… 😉

Prezzo’s a bit glass’n’chrome vibe for me, but they DO do a fine Calzone, I’ll give them that.

Zen Garden- very average

Thanks for the info all. Great stuff 🙂

+1 for Prezzo,
The bluebird cafe is very popular
Dorking has loads of foodie places, 10 mins away and Sang Thai or Chifan (Chinese) the pick of the bunch.
