The Woolpack is a traditional country pub in the heart of Elstead…read more The pub has was taken over 6 months ago, and the new landlady has worked really hard to restore it to it's reputation of some 5 years ago - a great village pub, serving tradition pub food. As soon as you walk in you see the cask ales lined up behind the bar, which seems rare these days. It's a warm atmosphere, and you feel really welcomed there, but not as much maybe as my dog who is spoiled by the locals and the bar staff!

This place is run by Polish Women, and the ambience is not for the romantic people wanting to gaze into each others eyes whilst eating etc. My partner and I had 3 courses, 2 drinks each and a coffee liquer for me, and it came to £80.00, so it's not one of the cheapest places to eat. Although saying that, we did eat the most expensive thing on the menu!! Can't fault the place!!

The interior is just like the demeanor of the staff: warm, likeable, and feels like home. In fact, it was incredibly difficult to determine where we wanted to dine, because of the sheer cuteness found in the decor and ambiance of The Grumpy Mole. It was just too damn nice outside to take a beautiful, sunny day in England for granted. So, we opted to sit on their patio and enjoy a near perfect day. Knowing how delicious the curry is in the UK, I opted for that choice and my high expectations were met. The chicken was tender and well prepared. The curry flavor was abound but not overpowering, while the naan and rice were soft, not stale. But the real highlight of the experience was the charcuterie plate packed with meats, cheeses, olives, and more. If only I had the fortune to return to England more often, then I would visit The Grumpy Mole on every visit. For now, I will dream of that day and hope it is on a cold, winters night, where the interior of the Grumpy Mole is cozy and warmed by a crackling fire place, of which I am sitting by while sipping on a piping mug of cider.

It's a bit difficult to find upstairs but it's well appointed and the view of the castle is pretty legit. We tried a couple of apps, both of which were good but the fish and chips were dialed in! Extra crispy chips and nice big piece of fish were complimented by classic mushy peas and a house made tartar sauce. The service was impeccable to top things off. If you are in the area, you should definitely add this to the list of places to try.

Great views and atmosphere can't make up for embarrassing, Aunt Bessie's quality roast…read more Came to The Ivy expecting a refined Sunday roast, but left wondering if I'd accidentally paid £29 for something reheated from the freezer aisle. The roast potatoes were dry, dense, and suspiciously uniform, Aunt Bessie's on an off day. Yorkshire puddings were flavourless and hollow, with that telltale mass-produced texture. Vegetables were minimal and uninspired. The lamb was unseasoned and tough. For a restaurant with The Ivy's name and reputation, this felt rushed, joyless, and deeply underwhelming. No real flavour payoff, and no sign that anyone in the kitchen had any pride in the food they send out. Feels all the more jarring given how beautiful the setting is. This was less "elegant brasserie" and more "supermarket ready-meal with better lighting". I wouldn't return for the roast -- and I wouldn't recommend it.

If you eat in the bar area you go to the bartender order your drink of choice and meal. Hint...if you only feel like a half portion of fish and chips you can order a half order and for me it's a perfect portion of food. They do have a bar menu too if you don't want fish and chips. But really who goes to a pub in England and not order fish and chips. This is the place to do so. They do have a restaurant but I believe you need a reservation for that. Worth every bit for a nice meal out and I believe that the menu is a bit different.
