Dorking Restaurant Guide

Green Rooms at The Inn on the Green, The

Selected RestaurantBook Online

An ancient inn, on the old Roman road from the coast to Dorking, offering well-presented food in surroundings that are forever England, with menus that keep pace with the seasons. The Inn on the Green and the Green Rooms perpetuates all that is good about the village inn, without in any way inhibiting its reaction to change, where clam chowder could replace brown Windsor soup but the villagers' dogs are still welcome, and stories of local ghosts are regarded with interest rather than disdain.
