Parrot Inn, Forest Green

Brunning and Price bought the lease and completely refurbished the pub in autumn 2018. This large rural pub is in a very attractive position overlooking the green and was a former Surrey Trust Company house. The name is thought to come from smuggling. The beamed area in front of the bar has some large flagstones on the floor and a large inglenook and some polished brass. There are a number of other areas around, all well furnished with floorboards or parquet flooring and loose carpets. These stretch a long way from the bar. There is a mixture of arm chairs, dining chairs and bench seating. One end is reserved for dining but seating in the bar area and northern end is available for drinkers. Outside are large gardens with picnic tables, many under the cover of a large teepee tent. Local beers from breweries such as Tillingbourne, Firebird and Dorking are often available. In addition to the beers listed, Brunning & Price Traditional (brewed by St Austell) is also served.
