"Our daughter just recently celebrated her 8th Birthday at Pizza express, Cobham M25 services. From the moment we spoke to Fazel, and Elise on the phone we knew it was going to be a great party, but they really did exceed all the expectations we already had. Upon arrival we were greeted by the very friendly team, and taken to our designated party area which they had decorated with balloons, they had created a pizza making station for the children too. When the guests arrived they were taken on a behind the scenes tour of the kitchen, and restaurant, which they loved! The chef then gave all the children a live demonstration on how to make different pizzas, from classic to romana. They were then off to make their own pizzas, they all loved rolling out their own dough and creating their own pizzas. The Children all went to wash their hands, chat for a few minutes then they were all ready very quickly. They were provided with Cordial and dough balls, the parents were able to order refreshments aswell. The pizza is great here too, next time we fancy our pizza express fix we will be coming here. The Chef and Fazel were engaging with the kids, cracking jokes and making it a fun experience for all the children. Afterwards the children were all awarded with personalised certificates, and we all sang happy birthday. The party was very good value for money, entertaining for children age 7-14, each one of the staff made us feel special, and nothing was too much. The atmosphere is lovely there. Olivia our daughter said it was the best party she ever had, we had great feedback from our guests, and our 14 year old son and his best friend had great fun too. I would not hesitate to recommend this venue to anyone for their childrens next party."

"Cosy cafe and restaurant. In daytime it is a high quality cafe with really nice food. In the evenings the lights are lowered and the place takes on the characteristics of a lovely local restaurant. You simply get much much more than expected. The portions are a good size and the quality of ingredients and qualiy of cooking are excellent. This restaurant competes well with the best in Weybridge. It is well worth taking a trip to Oaklands village and experience a welcoming special place. We have tried the Sunday lunch which was large and tasty. The meat was soft and juicy. Prefect roasted potatoes and a nice gravy. More cost effective and better than the local pubs. My wife loves the fish. The chef is experienced and has decades of experience and cares about each dish. You can talk directly with the chef and he will adjust the recipe to your desires. Did I mention they also have a licence? so crack open the vino and raise a glass. Other days I have tried the sea food linguine which tasted as nice as the ones I have had in Italy. There are a nice collection of desserts. If you take one thing away from this review and that is ‘home made creme brûlée’. Imagine it. Delicious. Mums and dads with little ones are welcome all the time. Parents from the local schools are regulars and kids are welcomed. The cafe has that family welcoming vibe that you get in Europe. The kids pick up on the friendly atmosphere and In return are well behaved and the parents are responsible. We have visited in daytime and night time. Both are excellent value for money."

"We booked a table at Pizza Express Walton tonight 11th May thinking it may be a little busy but when we turned up we were the only people there we asked about heating or even blankets and was told no we have never supplied outdoor heating we were then told the restaurant just along has heating ! Great business tactic there Anyway we order drinks and pizzas and decided to grin and bare it ...at 9.15pm we went inside to order a coffee as no one came out to ask if we wanted dessert and was told sorry coffee machine not working so i said not working or just being cleaned and you just dont want to do it ? So once i said that he said yes sorry but its late and we are no longer serving coffee ! My reply was ive sat outside with no heating and i want a coffee the manager then appears and said ok we will do it ! ....all this branch wanted to do was close down early and they just couldnt be bothered if that is the case DO NOT OPEN ! I would have thought you would he rushing to open the doors to customers not making the dining experience even worse than it already was .... P.s...when we went to the ladies we noticed their used blue masks on the tables ...not a good look when its meant to be cleaned down to prevent the virus ..... Note to Pizza Express if you state 10pm and someone orders coffee at 9.15pm.pls accomondate the manager the waiter just couldnt be bothered totally unimpressed by tonights experience will not be rushing back to this place"

"We took my Mum and Dad for Afternoon Tea at the Woodlands Park Hotel as a treat to celebrate their recent 90th and 95th Birthdays. The food and drink was excellent but the service was very disappointing in two respects. Firstly we arrived in good time for our 3.30pm booking slot but I stood at Reception desk for a full 10 minutes and was completely ignored. The one member of staff behind the desk was sorting out an IT problem over the phone and completely blanked me not even an I 'll be with you in a minute . After 10 minutes I set off round the hotel to try to find any member of staff who might be able to tell me where we needed to go (the website suggests that Afternoon Tea can be taken in any one of three rooms but our reservation confirmation did not state which). I found a member of staff and was directed to the Oak Room. The second disappointment was that the two staff serving Afternoon Tea clearly had no idea about the etiquette if taking afternoon tea . We were given our pots of tea a full 10 minutes before any food arrived. Eventually I had to ask one of the staff when we might expect some food (by now we had been at the Hotel for 40 minutes). It is not unreasonable to expect food and drink for Afternoon Tea to be served at about the same time. None of us wanted to drink a lot of tea first and then not have room for sandwiches and cakes. The other disappointment was the general decor in the Oak Room. It lacked the special atmosphere which you would normally expect for a formal Afternoon Tea. I 'm sorry to say, but I cannot recommend this venue for Afternoon Tea."
