Thank you so much to The White House and all of their staff for making our Engagement party a lovely evening!!! We hired the River Lounge and were so lucky with the weather. It was perfect. Definitely have The White House on your list for any parties.

The White House is situated in a picturesque scene right by Guildford Bridge, below the famous cobbled high street. Lovely atmosphere by the river side, goodish service and the food was really good! Highly recommend, you wont be disappointed

Fantastic ambience, chill vibes and great service. Very quiet in the evening, no too-loud pub chatter or folk music. There’s a variety of ales, IPAs and cider to choose from. Menu was quite limited but there’s something for everyone.

Lovely setting, but, I had the roast sirloin Sunday dinner, in which the meat was chewy and full of fat. The rest was lovely, but the meat was disappointing.

Only because I cant give them a zero. Ordered a single whisky and coke and they pretended to use the measuring cup but was by far short. Trying to make back the money they lost over covid at my expense I guess… watch out

Lovely setting, right by the river. Service was excellent and beer also (as you would expect at a Fullers pub). Food was OK, somewhat limited menu and not cheap, but thoroughly enjoyed my visit.

The location is absolutely perfect near to the high street. Also next to the river and trees which makes it very very lovely and peaceful:there is an open terrace too. The food was fresh and delicious, highly recommended! Staff was also friendly and kind. It is a bit pricy but the experience will make it even.

I love White House. Great food, great atmosphere, great staff! My only observation is that their vegetarian options used to be amazing (and Im not even a vegetarian! :)), whereas now the options are either more vegan-oriented or have veggie options that I dont eat as much (goat cheese, etc.). Still though, a must-try!

Ive been here several times and Im quite satisfied with the place. I had drinks, lunch, dinner here and never complained. The staff is super kind and sweet, and they have an appetising menu, although I have tried better sticky toffee pudding elsewhere.🙈 Its especially pleasant around spring and summer, when you can sit outside or close to the terrace as it has a lovely view to the river. Its definitely worth going there.

Located in the centre of town lovely place to sit outside when the sun is shining. The staff was friendly enough. It’s a big pub outside and in so there should of been some sort of background music. But it’s the food that really lets the place down I’m afraid. Microwave tasteless food…it was really bad sorry. Go for a drink but not if you also want to eat there.

This is my local pub and I really want to like it more. It’s in a nice location and has a warm atmosphere, so do return from time to time to see if things have improved but honestly the food is very, very average for the price.The wine list and drinks offering is pretty good but service is a bit hit and miss, and the guy that runs the place isn’t always the most helpful or welcoming so sadly we avoid.

I really wanted to love this place and went out of our way to enjoy the Sunday Roast which I heard was great. Unfortunately we were left quite disappointed.Ill start by saying the taste was good but it was served very cold, nearly room temperature. Some of the side dishes were not even warm at all, actually cold to the touch. It really put us off as you can imagine. Im not sure what happened or why it was served like this but I cant recommend you try it. At nearly £40 for a sharing portion, we were left unhappy. When served, we were not given a separate plate to eat from, just the one giant plate in the middle of us, nor a steak knife which I was almost afraid to ask for at this point. When it was delivered, he only gave us one, there was two of us at the table.On the positive side, the pub itself is lovely with views looking out at the canal and a warm atmosphere inside for those cold winter evenings. The staff were welcoming and I love that there are dogs allowed in the pub too. We loved the hot chocolate and the mulled wine was great. Also, the Yorkshire puddings were superb.Overall, we enjoyed the pub and drinks but seriously felt short-changed about the Sunday Roast.

Waaw! Really nice and peaceful location, enjoying the shade from the big willow trees along the River Way.The open space makes it ideal for family get together.The food is fresh and cooked to order, they use app ordering from your table so, make sure you allow plenty of time when place your order.No free parking, but you can use the car park next to it on the weekend £1.50 for 3h.Totally recommend after a nice stroll around the Guildford Castle, or even just after you finish from the hustle and bustle of the town.

Again had excellent service, sitting by the river. Would have been nice to sit outside but it was a bit chilly.Had the sausage and chicken club sandwich, and a side of chips. Very nice, atmosphere, pleasant staff, but most of all for the young Italian waitress. ExcellentWill definitely be back, for a special in October.

Awesome restaurant/pub along picteresque River Wey. Great and an accessible location in the town centre.The building looks like the actual White House! The place comprises of two floors, a beer garden and a main bar downstairs. It is very lively, has good vibe and cozy interior. I loved the vintage/eclectic decor.Good standard drinks and very tasty food. We had some tapas and it was really delicious. Great burgers. Reasonably priced.We were made so welcome and looked after brilliantly by the manager himself and his lovely team. I recommend this place for customers young and old. Thank you for such a lovely evening! Fullers can be proud of this place.

Lovely pub/restaurant on the side of the river, beautiful in the summer time, very modern with friendly staff, plenty of seats available. Menu seems to change everytime i come, but the ham hock with pineapple salsa, a free ranged egg and homecut chips remains one of my favourites!

Really lovely Sunday Past and pud was enjoyed by myself today. The young lady who served me was polite and quietly did her job and made me feel welcome. The food was sooo tasty and I honestly dont know how I managed to squeeze in pudding!!!Went back 2 weeks later for a mid-week lunch. Very much enjoyed. We shared some tapas, then I choose from the set menu and had lamb koftas to start, and harissa chicken with cous cous for mains. Delicious!!
