Description: This large venue is set back off the main road, which makes it quiet for traffic noise but easy to miss. It has two separate bars, the larger of the two is already no-smoking, and has wooden railings around the raised seating area at the rear. There is no shortage of tables and chairs, including some high stools at the bar and a couple of padded benches. The ceiling is off-white painted wallpaper and the walls are a shade of teracotta. They are decorated with art prints. In one corner is one of those dispicable snack/nuts dispensing machines that are becoming more common in pubs. The smaller bar has a few tables, a dart board and a pool table. Beers on offer include Carling, Fosters, Kronenbourg, Stella Artois, Belhaven Best Smooth, Guinness, Guinness Extra Cold, and Strongbow Cider. Also real ales Greene King IPA / Abbot + Guest Ale.

Surrey Cricketers, Windlesham

Description: This large venue has a patio at the front, and a large car park at the side, and a large beer garden at the back. Inside there are plenty of tables and chairs, Unfortunately the immense size is carried inside too, all the furnature seems to be 20% bigger than necessary. This can be comforting in a chair, but the stools make you feel like Dennis Waterman in that Little Britain sketch. Don't get me wrong, they are well made, and pleasant to sit in, it just looks a little weird. The walls are decorated with blackboards showing special offers, and old posters, and art prints. The floors are bare boards, although probably very hygienic, can make the place more noisy. There are large windows on three sides which let in a great deal of natural light. All of this gives the venue a relaxing seaside feel. The long bar has upholstered stools. Beers on offer include London Pride, Spitfire, Greene King I.P.A, Carlsberg, Guinness, Carling and San Miguel, Strongbow cider and wine on tap. Live music is presently on alternate Wednesday nights. Other entertainment is provided by a large LCD TV. They also have a function room for hire. Sadly this venue no longer does live music.
