About the Pub
Converted from a shop in 2000, set in a modern building on the historic high street, the light airy decor of the Jack Phillips hints at an Art Deco passenger saloon of an ocean liner and there is lots of information about the pub's name sake displayed throughout the pub. At least four guest ales are available, usually up to seven, usually with several LocAles complementing the current Wetherspoon selection. There are also least two real ciders. Families are welcome in the area to the rear of the pub, which can also be hired as a function room. Quieter than many in the chain, it is also largely devoid of TV screens. These show news with subtitles and major sports events available on free to air TV, usually rugby. There is a small patio to the front, where you can relax and watch the hustle and bustle that is Godalming High Street go by. Licensed sales from 09:00 but opens at 08:00 for breakfast.
Historic Interest
The pub is named after the heroic wireless operator on the ill-fated Titantic. At the rear of the pub is the Phillips Memorial Cloister. Many of those who survived the Titanic said that Jack Phillips had saved their lives. Jack's birthday, on 11 April, is celebrated with a drink in the pub that now bears his name.
