The Weyside, Guildford

The Weyside is a decent looking pub that is close to the River Wey and to the South of Guildford's town centre. Once inside there is an oblong shaped room which is bare boarded,the bar faces inwards,the seating is normal tables and chairs,there is a room down steps to the rear which had tables set for diners,this are overlooks the River Wey,the seating here is normal tables and chairs,there is an outside seating area which is down more steps,this looked nice as it was next to the river. There were five real ales on the bar,i had a drink of Surrey Hills Ranmoor,which went down very well,the other real ales were Surrey Hills Sheer Drop,Youngs Bitter,Youngs Special and Youngs London Gold. I thought this was a decent pub and worth the short walk from the town centre. Pub visited 13/5/2017

Has now been named back to the Weyside, a much better name than the Boatman. The food is good here, the beer has now been overtaken by the Youngs brewery.

A posh place with a massively overdone pine-modernisation interior that was very sterile. Rear conservatory and decking area was a much better bet, which overlooks the river and park. Two unusual ales available from Tillingbourne, both in good nick. Staff were young, friendly and were exceptionally forgiving when one of our party had a motor malfunction and dropped his pint on the floor, replacing it free of charge. Like the White House it's a pleasant stop if you can bag an outside seat but otherwise it's a bit so-so as a venue. However my visit was good enough to give it a decent score.
