  “Very disappointing experience at the Esquires Boxgrove today. When we placed our order for two waffle dishes, the chef initially came out to say they had run out of strawberries and offered raspberries instead, which we agreed to. After waiting around 30 minutes, she returned with our waffles and then mentioned she had actually found some strawberries at the last moment. Unfortunately, the waffles were extremely disappointing. The strawberries were very soft, cut into tiny pieces, and served warm, which was completely different from what is shown in the promotional photos (fresh strawberries, very misleading advertising). It certainly wasn’t what we expected when ordering. My two daughters barely touched the waffles because the fruit looked and tasted unappetising. I raised the issue with the staff at the time. While they apologised, when I asked for a refund I was told the manager wasn’t present and that I would have to send an email instead to customer service esquiresguildford! Overall, both the quality of the food and the way the situation was handled were very poor. Given the clear difference between the advertised dish and what was actually served, the waffles should not have been served in that condition. Very disappointing experience.”

  “Nice cafe but dreadful food. Toast was burnt, bacon was dried out and tiny, sausage was split open and deep fried. Everything was cold. Waste of money. Walked out.”

  “Appalling experience at Esquires Boxgrove Guildford today. So unwelcoming, close to rude! Arrived at 4pm and staff made me clearly feel they would prefer to have closed already. And also Started opening the door wide open whilst tidying at 4pm40! Freezing cold. So please either change closing time or stay welcoming and keep same service level till the end!”

  “Excellent coffee shop with a real local neighbourhood vibe. All sorts of types frequent Esquires from school mums to retirees and business people on their phones/laptops. Of course, the food/breakfast, coffee and other drinks are great as are the staff who are exceptionally welcoming and friendly. Thoroughly recommended!”

  “Loved this coffee shop in Guildford. The place is away from city centre, in a quiet residential locality but still busy on a Saturday afternoon. I liked the vibes of the cafe interior. Food is good, so is the coffee. Parking lot with 90 min free parking for customers.”

  “I feel robbed. I paid £7.75 for this "sourdough" sandwich. I don't belive the staff knows what sourdough is. I don't mind paying premium for nice things but this is complete trash. It looks and tastes worse than a sandwich made by 4 year old.”

  “Lovely and family friendly coffee place, we visit very often to get our morning coffee and chai tea latte, it is very dog friendly, our dog is always looking forward to a dog treat he gets. Food and cakes are also tasty. Glad we have this place in our area. Thoroughly reccommend it.”

  “Very friendly and helpful service. Amazing ham & cheese croissant, not to mention the chocolate & hazelnut croissant. Everything looks and taste very fresh. Exquisite coffee. Very tasty smoothies. Will definitely come back. Thank you 😊”

  “The service is incredibly friendly and, at their best, the coffee is unbeatable (I have had some fantastic flat whites here.) They are genuinely welcoming of dogs (but don’t ask for a Puppycino, or your dog will never let you leave!) Can’t wait to be able to sit in and try the breakfasts, once they are permitted to start serving again. A great addition to the parade of shops which includes Peacocks Grocers and Deli, the Guildford Butchery, and even the Fishmonger on Tuesday mornings”
