The Star

We went here for dinner after going to Chessington World of Adventure. The staff were very welcoming and attentive. Food was amazing and there was a good gluten free selection for my wife. We both had the ribs and the meat fell off the bone and had loads of flavour. Everyone had a good size portion so no one went home hungry. If I'm in that area again would definitely go back.

Great pub with good food. The pub exterior looks smaller than its enormous interior and the staff are all welcoming and attentive. Plenty of parking outside, easy road access and equally easy access for the mobility challenged. Met up with very good old friends here and the orders were varied from liver & mash, to chicken burgers, ribs & ribs to fresh fish. All were very good. Portions were generous and tasty. Finished off the meal with Kahlua coffees which were excellent

Its my mums birthday today and her and my dad had booked to go for lunch at the Star as its their favourite place. I live a long way away but wanted to do something special as i couldn't be there, so i called up and without much notice the staff were more than happy to arrange a little something. They sang happy birthday and put a candle on the desert she had ordered. She was absolutely overjoyed and slightly embarrassed lol. Thank you so much to the team at the Star for doing this for me and my mum, you made her day.

We went for our son's birthday and found that two other tables had a birthday group too. It was very busy when we arrived so I suggest that you book a table in advance. The service was slower because of the amount of people at one time but the waiters were very apologetic and had a good sense of humor which went down well. The food was good and so was the atmosphere, we are definitely going back again as this restaurant is one for everyone to try. Plenty of families there too so children are welcome.

The pub/family restaurant has a great layout of open space at the back, front and inside. Looks tiny from the outside but as a former school you know how spacious it can be. The Chicken Caesar salad I had was good however, it was flooded with the white sauce. It almost felt like cold soup at one point. Less would be perfect. According to my mate, their bangers were delicious. The staff were friendly and always checked every 5 mins if our food was alright and if we wanted more drinks. It would be better if they came every 10 minutes because it does interrupt conversation sometimes. Great location for a meal and drink especially after a briskly walk through the common.
