Amber Wood, managing director for The Cosy Club brand, said: "At Cosy Club, we serve up a sense of being somewhere special with a hint of nostalgia.

"From a lazy breakfast to family lunch or a night out in your glad rags, we're set apart by the character of our team, elegance of our design and quality of our food and drink.

"We're absolutely thrilled to be part of such a fantastic development, steeped in history in the heart of Guildford.

"We're looking forward to bringing some delicious food and quirky style to the people of the town."

The walls will be adorned with flock wallpaper, William Morris classics, family portraits, flags, banners and iconic 50's artwork peppered with the odd piece of taxidermy thrown in for good measure.

Vast Gothic chandeliers will hang dramatically next to huge glass stars, French brass fittings and chintzy shades throwing light that is soft, sumptuous and elegant.
