The Squirrel Country Pub - Waverley

Haven't been to this restaurant in a while but was not disappointed. The staff were charming, friendly, efficient, and knowledgeable. The sea bass with white wine sauce was sublime, and the desserts were good, although not homemade which was a bit disappointing after such an amazing main course. The restaurant was small and cool, but well-ventilated which made me feel safe. I will definitely be returning to try new dishes, as the chef is truly fabulous.

We decided to revisit The Squirrel after hearing that it has new owners, and we were not disappointed. The food and service were excellent, and we will definitely be coming back and recommending this lovely pub to others.

We had a Groupon voucher for the set lunch at this restaurant and thoroughly enjoyed the meal. The food, especially the liver, was excellent. The staff were helpful and friendly, and we were impressed with the variety of choices on the set lunch menu even without the voucher. We would definitely recommend this place.

Scrolling through groupon today, I saw a deal at this pub for a 3 course set menu at £30 for 2 people. Having not been yet, hubbie and I decided to try it out with the pooch in tow. I booked online prior to arrival and arrived in good time, as it's just off the A3. Initial impressions were very good. Lovely looking gastropub, in the countryside and plenty of parking. A warm welcome was waiting for us inside and we were quickly shown to our corner table and a bowl of water was provided straight away for the dog. Nice touch. The set menu is normally £33 each so it's a bargain to try out first on a place you havn't been to. I chose calamari with a nice sweet chilli dip, he had mushroom soup with warm bread, followed by Chicken Schnitzel fries salad, whilst I went for the Steak Burger. Both the starters and mains were delicious! My steak burger was cooked to perfection, juicy and the chicken was (he said well seasoned and a nice light batter. Dessert was treacle pudding with custard (or ice cream and I had the New York cheesecake with cream. Again, dessert was absolutely scrumptious. Overall, I was very impressed with the near decor, welcoming staff, large outside decking area for the summer and a children's play area away from the main building so would not disturb other diners. This deal is on until the end of February so if you are thinking of trying a new pub, in an area you've never been to with great service and lovely food, this is it! (Oh, and 5 mins away is a lovely Farm Shop called Secretts also worth a visit en route back! :

Delicious main meal and dessert, staff is very kind and service is more than excellent. All perfect. Absolutely nice experience, warmly recommended!!
