The venues
1
Wooden Bridge
The Wooden Bridge is a Greene King pub in Guildford, positioned for casual food, drink and live sport with the group’s familiar menu and deal structure. The location is handy for a meet-up before or after other town activities.
Expect pub classics, screens for football, rugby and more, and a friendly all-ages daytime into evening atmosphere (check under-18 licensing cut-offs). It is a practical neighbourhood / midtown Greene King rather than a specialist craft venue.
Good for match days, family meals within licensing rules, and straightforward Greene King hospitality.
2
King's Head (Stoke Road)
The King’s Head on King’s Road is a friendly neighbourhood pub with an Indian food twist — a completely different venue from the historic Quarry Street King’s Head. It positions itself as a home-from-home local for a pint and a chat, a relaxed bite with friends, or a lively night out, with genuine hospitality in a historic Stoke-area building.
Expect Indian and pub dining under one roof, live sport on the screens, and a What’s On calendar that has featured open mic, acoustic nights and quizzes. Functions space makes it useful for parties and gatherings as well as regulars popping in after work.
A solid Stoke pick when you want curry and a pint together, or a neighbourhood evening with sport and live music. Book a table for busy food services and check the site for fixtures and entertainment.
3
Astolat
The Astolat is a warm neighbourhood pub on Old Palace Road in Guildford’s Onslow area, known for well-kept ales and beers alongside an Indian food offering that sets it apart from a standard local. Opening tends to lean evening through the week, with food available into the evening most days.
Expect a friendly community atmosphere with regulars, curry nights and quiz-style evenings featuring in the What’s On calendar. The pub is dog-friendly and sets itself up as an inviting spot for a pint and a proper meal without heading into the town-centre crush.
A solid choice for Onslow and Westborough locals, students nearby, and anyone after Indian pub dining with a relaxed Surrey vibe.
