"Disappointing visit as this is usually an enjoyable place to go to. This time it was a disaster. I took a guest and her baby for a treat but we had to leave without eating and go elsewhere. I had booked a table on their telephone answering machine stating our specific requirements and called the day before to speak to someone to double check that they could provide us with all we needed. However on arrival we were told they were unable to cook/serve what I had requested (although it is on the menu) until 45 minutes later and then only after 2 large pre orders. I was told (a) I 'd booked an awkward time slot and (b) their policy was on the menu which we didn 't see until we arrived at the venue. Apart from the baby 's needs one of us has complex special dietary needs. Neither can easily fit into a standard slot to suit other agendas. My question is why was I not informed that we would have to sit and wait 45 minutes before being allowed to order the item I specifically rang to ask about when I telephoned? I 'd also question how good a telephone booking system is that takes your booking but then informs you that it won 't confirm it. It feels very risky hence my 2nd call. Finally I received no acknowledgement to my message to the owner. Not the best customer service I have received. Can 't rate the food this time."

I met a friend for coffee, staff not visible and when they came to serve seemed flustered and unsure of what to do. Asked for 2 coffees and was told there would be a 40 minute wait. Left as did not have that much time.

Love this place looks nothing on the inside as it does on the outside which looks like a 1980 cafe as you drive by .... inside is a light and bright chilled place with pleasant and mannerly staff even when they are busy.

A nice little place I only found last year and popped in a couple of times with my late mum. She really enjoyed it, so it's always special to visit for the Old Post breakfast and a tea or coffee. The place has a nice relaxed atmosphere

Popped in for Coffee and was presented with the most delicious Walnut cake the slice of which was the size of a small island and for £2.95 is without doubt the best value Walnut cake in Surrey. Topped with a generous hot coffee this was a most rewarding visit !! So nice to see a coffee house that goes that extra mile !!

Nice atmosphere, friendly service, good coffee and food. This Restaurant has a shop attached selling a variety of things, including an excellent choice of greetings cards. In the restaurant they have many chocolate products for sale, very tempting indeed. We live very close so use very regularly and am very happy to recommend.

We popped in here quite randomly. Inside it’s a beautiful place: a spacious modern cafe with a lovely courtyard. Some really good design touches. Somehow it didn’t look so welcoming from the outside? The menu is limited but all three of our light lunches were excellent: chunky sandwiches, a very nice quiche, with really good coleslaw on the side. The coffee was decent, the milkshake was good. Worth popping in!

Took my partner and two friends to lunch today. Service was unacceptably slow. It took 50 minutes for our sandwiches and salads to arrive, and that was after two prompts to the staff who only informed me 40 minutes in that they were understaffed today (after they'd taken my order and money). There was also a lack of organisation, with people being serviced ahead of us, who had arrived after us. Not impressed and we won't be eating there again.

Took a while for our lunch to come, for which the waitress apologised. However, really don't think your food should come out in dribs and drabs. Side order of fries was delivered with no other food. Two lunches then arrived about 5 mins later but not mine. Had to wait a further 5 mins for mine to arrive. The chips were pretty cold by now. I ordered the quiche which I expected would be warm. However, it was ice cold and I couldn't eat it all as a result.

"Tarana Review of Tarana restaurant Lingfield , location is very prominent , on the main High Street. The restaurant can be easily be seen on the high street after passing the roundabout as you enter the high street . As you enter the front door , you quickly realise it’s so large in size and very spacious with colourful lighting. The restaurant is very tastefully decorated with a wow factor , great ambiance . As you walk through there is lounge bar area on the left to enjoy a drink before you are seated to your table. Tonight we are here to dine and enjoy the Dua Lipa live tribute singing and dancing so great atmosphere here tonight ! They have a wonderful range of cocktails non alcoholic and alcoholic with exciting range of drink menu . Great if you’re driving and not in to alcohol , the choice is unlimited unlike your usual typical indian with basic soft drinks . There is dance floor to do some hip hop or just slow , choice is yours! We have been to most of their restaurants and it’s “simply the best” in terms of entertainment food and drinks . The prices are very reasonable for what you get from them and service is wonderful with a smile King prawn butterflies appetisers and king purree , wonderful and nicely flavoured, served with designer chillies and salad . Main courses , Tiger Prawn biryani King prawn biryani duck biryani with side dishes of fresh bindi bhaji sag bhaji tarka dall wow ! Simply mind blowing food "
