The Bird in Hand is an elegant, rustic gastropub in the heart of Woking in Surrey. Independently owned, this eatery is full of a warm and welcoming character. Featuring a traditional sense in its choice of decor, it is the perfect place to pop into for a cosy glass of wine or craft beer by the open fire.
No matter what the occasion, the friendly team is ready to make your visit memorable - even welcoming dogs into the bar and garden with treats on offer to make sure every member of the family feels welcome.
The bar is fully stocked with an excellent range of lagers and real ales as well as a carefully crafted wine list to suit all pallets. The team also select a gin of the month, perfectly paired with a tonic and garnish for a refreshing, unique gin experience.
Settle into the cosy dining area with nibbles of bread and olives, before starting with a hearty bowl of soup or delicate cherry hoisin duck noodles.
At lunch time, the team offers a range of wraps and sandwiches with a choice of chips, salads, or even patatas bravas if you fancy something with a little more spice.
The main menu features a great range of classics from burgers to larger plates like steak, gnocchi, and fish. The signature Bird in Hand burger is a must thanks to the caremlised onion and bacon mayo loaded on top of a beef patty, oozing with cheese and topped with smoked, crispy bacon.
When it comes to dessert, the Bird in Hand covers every basis; from your classics like sticky toffee pudding and triple chocolate brownie, to more adventurous options like the luxurious egg custard tart, served with a tart rhubarb compote. There's even a cheese board to suit those without a sweet tooth.
