About This Pub

Ah, Stag & Hounds – it's one of those pubs that really knows how to get the party going, isn't it? From what I've gathered chatting about it, the place has this warm, inviting feel that's perfect for a night out with friends or even a family gathering. They've got all sorts of events on offer, like Rhythm & Brews for some top tunes, karaoke to belt out your favourites, and even a family fun weekend with live music and games that sounds like a right laugh. The staff are gems, always up for a chat and making sure everyone feels welcome, which is just what you want after a long week. Plus, the food's a winner – those quick bites like pies and pizzas hit the spot without any fuss. But, let's be straight, it's not all roses; I've heard a few tales of frustration with the management, like slapping on entry fees out of the blue or being a bit picky about who gets in or where they can sit outside. It does make you wonder if they're spreading themselves a bit thin sometimes. Overall, though, if you're up for a good time and don't mind overlooking the odd hiccup, it's worth popping in – just go in with your eyes open and you'll likely have a brilliant evening.

Pros and Cons

Pros
  • The atmosphere is spot on, with a welcoming vibe that makes you feel right at home, especially since the new management has really turned things around.
  • They've got brilliant entertainment lined up, like live music, karaoke nights, and even family fun weekends with activities for all ages – perfect for a good laugh with mates.
  • The staff are an absolute credit; they're friendly, professional, and always smiling, which adds to the enjoyable experience.
  • Quick and tasty food options, such as those handy pies or pizzas, and a great selection of drinks to keep the evening flowing smoothly.
Cons
  • There have been some dodgy moments with entry policies, like charging a fiver on busy nights without much to show for it, which has left a few folks feeling a bit short-changed.
  • Management responses to complaints can come across as dismissive, which might put some people off if they're not handled with more understanding.
  • It's a bit hit-and-miss with consistency; while regulars seem to have a whale of a time, newcomers might encounter selective treatment that dampens the fun.
  • The outdoor areas could use some better management, as there have been issues with access, making it less relaxing than it could be.

Feeling much like the other one star reviews. Would be happy to discuss reasons for this review if the management were willing to show understanding, instead of the ignorance/disregard demonstrated in previous replies. Recent 5 star reviews are mainly favoured regulars, who of course, had a very different experience to the rest of us.

Living in the village for 30 years, this pub always lacked something. Since the new landlord has taken over- he has it spot on!! The atmosphere is just perfect. It provides great entertainment and quick tasty snacky food. The staff always have a smile on their faces, despite being at work, on a busy Xmas eve. I for one think this is exactly what the village has been crying out for, for years. Well done to the new team

As a resident local for over 25 years the new manager charged everyone £5 to enter on Christmas Eve 2024 (without any DJ or financial investment in the night) - He proceeded to selectively charge individuals to enter & prevented customers from sitting outside. When confronted about the questionably poor service he mouthed off & got aggressive with local, loyal, customers. The bouncers agreed with the entire outside venue & confessed they’d never work there again. The staff were lovely but the manager needs to take a long hard look at himself. Farnham Common be warned
