Reviewing a FOUR STAR HOTEL & PUB! WAS it GOOD?

Today, I've taken a trip down to Surrey and in particular, the Percy Arms which is a four star hotel but also a Pub & Grillhouse located in Chilworth near Guildford. I've been interested in going here for a while so it's finally time to find out how good it is. Lets give it a go!

One of the good things about this channel is it encourages people to get out and try some of the different food options. And it shows that, despite what some people claim, Britain does have good food.

[@GaryEats]

I couldn't agree with you more. There's some really great options even if you only want to eat your typical British food!! Love trying new cuisines

[@TKDJK]

@@GaryEats Yes Gary on reflection that Rib Eye Steak looked and probably smelled delicious. Only one query, why do you smother it with sauces?

I'm new I agree. I visit UK one day.

I'm always amazed by how much the meals cost. To eat in a pub or restaurant seems expensive, Gary doesn't encourage me to eat out , but he is great entertainment 😃

[@samuelbailey1688]

I should say for people thinking of going, this pub does a 10oz Rump chips and sauce for £14 on Tuesday evenings and a 16oz for £18.

[@GaryEats]

Thank you for the information Samuel, that’s great value

I'm glad to see you mention that the wheelchair access was good, i use a wheelchair and find that some pubs and restaurant versions of what is wheelchair accessible leaves a lot to be desired.

It’s not just people in wheelchairs who like level access. If your mobility is a bit dodgy or you have a child in a buggy, you’re very glad to know in advance you don’t have to struggle with steps. Well done, Gary, for mentioning it .

Tom 'Nine Chips' Kerridge strikes again! I would have gone without the glaze or the dark sauce. The garden looks the perfect environment for a nice meal in nice spring weather. 10/10 for the setting.

[@GaryEats]

I’m glad you said it, I was too scared 🤣

[@hels2608]

The nine chips comment made me chuckle 😂

[@heidifogelberg3544]

Man, I'd have been tempted to cry if I got that steak and it came pre-sauced. I do sometimes have sauces with my steaks, but I am 100% committed to adding the ones I want when I want. And a sweet, bbq-esque sauce on a ribeye? For 37 pounds? I'd cetainly have wept out loud.. However, glad you enjoyed it. The meat looked perfect and perfectly cooked, but why does a place like that give an own-goal by being cheap with something like portioning potato? They don't have to! They could toss another handful of chips on the plate for pennies. The little serving buckets aren't that adorable ... It does look like a way to up their dessert sales, frankly. That egg. Wrapped in rare mince. I couldn't. Mince is just too dicey. Now, mind, there's a good chance that in a kitchen like that, they grind their own. But if that's mince that's come in from a supplier and subjected to the treatment it has been to achieve a scotch egg ... I fear for you, amigo. Microbes. They're real. I think your review is very fair and your courage is high. Best of luck to you in the next 24 hours!

[@GaryEats]

I’m all good thankfully as it was undercooked, all that steak needed was some seasoning more chips and nothing else, I agree 👌🥩🥩

[@andywatts8654]

What’s dicey about beef mince?!

[@heidifogelberg3544]

@andywatts8654 Well, ok, that is a decent pun. But what I meant is that A) there's a lot of chance for it to go off quickly, especially under moderate temperatures; and B) if it's produced under mass-market circumstances, it's often bits and chunks of literally dozens of different cuts from no one knows how many original sources at what differing times, run through a grinder and packaged in one mass. I'm not saying that's what this kitchen does - they could well be chopping up their own mince by hand from single source prime cuts. But it's the kind of thing I wonder at when faced with a partially cooked ground/minced meat preparation. So, while I happily eat steaks at rare or medium rare temps, I never order ground or minced beef less than medium well. And that only in solidly trusted high quality places, which, to be fair, this seems like it should be. So that's what I meant.

[@maxwellfan55]

THAT STEAK has to be the nicest, juiciest, mouthwatering beef steak I have EVER seen. Gary, I'm so envious! I'd go just for this experience alone. Thumbs up to the pub and chefy.

I live near the Percy. It's very very popular and you're in safe hands with their food.

[@EgilWar]

Chips are relatively inexpensive to make so there is no reason to skip on portion. The steak looked excellent and certainly did not need any added sauces. The eggs looked strange and, from your comments, did not taste right. 7/10 seems a reasonable score due to the price. If it had been a little cheaper or the portions bigger it would have been a solid 8.5/10.

Yes, never understood it myself and completely agree with you

[@RumpleXstillXskin]

@@shsh-he5qgI’ve seen on tv 📺 you can eat raw beef 🥩 safely

[@rampyx1]

Undoubtedly the steak was the highlight, however I think the rest of it , including the strange beef scotch egg, was way over priced. The presentation of that starter versus cost was very poor. Looked like a child had plated it up and i would have expected the egg to be more runny. I think you were very generous with your score and for me , the steak with glaze already on it, was not a great idea. Last moan, I couldn't get passed it being called Monkey Gland sauce. That proper put me off.😊

[@flower-ss2jt]

The steak was on a plate! Hooray. Bring back 'food on plates' - not boxes, bags, slates, and buckets. Serving food in a bucket is a good way to short change the customer, I think. Steak looked really good.

[@DrFrankLondon]

Hi Gary, you're not the only person with that comment about the glaze and the peppercorn sauce, my wife and her sister had the same opinion. I went for the Smokey Jo burger and it was fab.But the portion sizes, especially the chips, leaves a lot to desire.We were just passing through so we didn't order a starter or a dessert, but at least I was left a bit wanting. But the place and the surroundings are beautiful, but if you want to make a fusion restaurant, make sure everything is going together before you serve it. From my wife's perspective the waiter, who attended us, should have informed about the glaze and that maybe the peppercorn sauce wasn't the best choice. But nothing to complain about when it came to the quality of the ingredients, they were top notch. But not a place we will run back to any time soon, to be brutally honest. Hope you had a wonderful Easter time and enjoy the rest of your day, mate! Speak to you soon!😊

[@GaryEats]

You've been here Frank? Good to see. Yes, I agree with your partner regarding the glaze. I will say the steak was delicious. Hope you had a good weekend

Beef sausages are more common in Scotland than they are in England , the egg looked OK if a little pricey After paying £32 for a steak I don't think it's expecting too much for them to chuck the sauce in with it . It did look good you should have picked up that plate and licked the sauce off it.😅!!! They were very tight with the chips which cost very little to make.

[@davidoldboy5425]

I love beef sausage, but because people aren't used to them and they may not have a great turnover you have to be careful. The sausage should look bright not dark. Try Lorne sausage from supermarkets if you're not sure, readily available.

Hey Gary, fantastic as always. What I really admire about all your videos is the sense of adventure, being ready to try new things with an open mind, fantastic. Looking forward to the next video 😎

[@GaryEats]

Thanks so much 👍

[@Nils_Martin]

It's good thing you taking the bullet for us Gary! I know it's a tough and particularly difficult job but you gotta do it. Thank you Gary! I'm more of a traditionalist as well and i don't think i'd fancy that scotch egg. 🤔 However the beer garden look pretty damn nice so i'll probably just have a few beers. 🍺🍻

[@GaryEats]

Fully understand and a great location

[@MegaKev63]

Thank you Gary, totally agree about the glaze interfering with the sauces. Chips were sad but Steak looked delicious. Would have given it 7.5.

[@GaryEats]

[@GaryEats]

It’s on the list thank you

[@CharlieCooper3101]

What a lovely little place. I've never been to Chilworth, been through it on the train. You get nice views from the beer garden. The scotch egg, didn't look good. That steak though Gary Wow, looked lovely. Shame about the portion size. Great video. 👍

[@GaryEats]

Thank you Charlie the Scotch Egg was the letdown

[@reece3863]

so rare to find someone making review content thats actually a genuine review. a wonderfull fair person which such a nice personality, paying for his meal and trying to critique it fairly with respect to both restaurant and viewer. most social media food reviewers are just promoting restaurants and want free meals at best, or money from the restaurant to have a glowing "review". god bless you for being a proper reviewer. With this one. I have to say how can any experienced chef glaze the steak with sweet sauce and then serve peppercorn sauce with it and more glaze. That shows a complete lack of any basic understanding of flavour, its a terrible mistake, I would have sent it back and asked for the steak undressed so I could at least choose. but those 2 sauces do not complement each other even if the steak was undressed. As for the beef scotch egg. they are trying to be clever. the beef looked raw. serve it on a smaller plate as well. basic things being done wrong. saying that it looked like the restaurent has some decent intentions, such a lack of basic understanding. thank you for the great content

[@GaryEats]

Thank you for both your excellent and kind comment, I could have asked for the steak without the glaze, however my mistake as I wasn’t expecting the glaze to be so full of flavour making it unnecessary for the sauces. Have a great week ahead Reece

[@bennyhill4228]

Lets give it a go, love it always

[@GaryEats]

👍

[@Claire-jy9yc]

Great video Gary. I wouldn’t be able to have the glaze on the steak, love my peppercorn sauce too much!

[@GaryEats]

I fully understand lol

[@johng.8600]

[@GaryEats]

It was a great steak 🥩

[@Hogarthnp20]

Another great watch. Keep finding these little gems.I was sure you were going 10 but 9.5 is right up there Gary .Did cameraman have a rhubarb crumble after.

[@GaryEats]

He had a little munch the greedy so and so lol

[@user-es8gw1nz5x]

Nice review chap as always…The food looked very nice Gary …Gosh the steak looked scrumptious 👌👌 I agree with the portion size of the chips u needed more. The beef scotch egg looked nice too, but I prefer the original scotch egg..

[@GaryEats]

It was a great steak 🥩 and the egg was a bit disappointing, take care and you will definitely like the one tomorrow 👌

[@MegaVector2011]

Totally agree about traditional Scotch Eggs being the best, I'm in N.Yorkshire and the default 'posh Scotch Egg' tends to be the black pudding one, tried it on numerous occasions and it's never quite hit the spot for me. Rib eye steak is my default steak, yours looked a beauty. Great upload!

[@GaryEats]

Thank you and stop messing with our Scotch Eggs lol

[@peterdnreynolds777]

Excellent video as always!! The steak looked amazing, stingy on the amount of chips provided though. Hope all is well, take care

[@GaryEats]

All good thank you Peter just not enough chips

[@iheggis86]

The content keeps coming! 👌 you’ll have to do a Q&A Gary, many of us are wondering what started you on the food review journey

[@GaryEats]

I definitely will one day 👍

[@CheshireCat6639]

Lovely place. Steak looked yummy..rib eye..yesss...but..there's a hole in my (chip) bucket dear liza dear liza😮🎉..never had a beef scotch egg..i will stick with pork ..Ty for sharing Gary 🎉

[@GaryEats]

lol thank you 👍

[@wilfamos7314]

Brilliant review as ever. Thanks for posting. Just the chips and salald for me there, the rest looked raw! A decent vet would have had a bash at getting that up and running again! 😂😂😂

[@GaryEats]

lol that’s really funny 🤣

[@samuelbailey1688]

I can’t tell you how happy I am that through me mentioning this place you took the advice and went. So glad that you enjoyed for the most part. Not sure about the bank holiday part though

[@GaryEats]

Thanks Samuel. It's a beautiful pub and has excellent surroundings. Good suggestion, thank you!
