How to get rid of the way Google looks in Safari with the top and left toolbars
Google are 'punishing' users of old browsers by showing them a different UI. The only real way round it is to update your browser... or you could try this...

I found this advice on how to 'fake' the User Agent, but it doesn't claim to be a permanent fix, nor can I test it as I'm on Safari 7.


  Here's a temporary solution for Safari 5.1.10 on a Mac using Snow Leopard
  If you haven't set up Safari to have the "Devlop" menu available then you'll have to do that first by doing this...
  
  1: Select from the menu bar "Safari/ Preferences" and then select "Advanced" in the preferences window. Tick/ select the item at the bottom of the window labelled "Show Develop Menu In Menu Bar"
  
  Now in the Safari menu bar you will have a menu called "Develop"...
  
  Go to the "Devlop" menu and from the options pick "User Agent" and then "Other"...
  
  This will open up a window where you must now copy/paste the following line (or type it in)...
  
  Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 5.1; rv:31.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/31.0
  Click on "Ok"...
  
  You should now have got rid of the old style Google look and it should be back to the new look. The only thing you will notice is some layouts will look a bit different but for the time being and until Google fixes this problem you at least have the "new look" back... :-)
