The emphasis at the Black Horse is on quality food, all locally sourced, from high quality suppliers, the meat in fact being delivered from a butcher only a mile down the road. The theme for the food is varied, an excellent selection of traditional English dishes in keeping with the traditional countryside location of the Inn. The restaurant also offers an exciting selection of a la carter dishes and regularly changing specials, to keep the offering fresh and varied. The restaurant menu will really get your tastebuds going, and all of the dishes are lovingly prepared onsite by our talented brigade of trained chefs.

An 18th Century Inn, the Black Horse Inn has been a refuge, providing a welcome rest, food and sustenance, and more importantly watering weary travellers for hundreds of years. The selection of ale and wine is second to none, and testament to many years of experience providing excellent hospitality.

The ale and wine offering at the Black Horse, has a similar ethos to the food. To use locally sourced suppliers, Brewers and wineries to provide a wide and varied selection of products that are able to stand up against more mainstream competitors.

Usually the food is very good at the black horse but on this occasion, we were a bit let down. My fish from the fish and chips was slightly overcooked (the fish was chewy) but that's not the end of the world, and my partner had the chicken thigh burger. At the time he remarked the chicken looked a bit pink but we didn't think much of it as I know thigh can sometimes be pink/brown. Unfortunately as soon as we got home he was sick and spent the majority of the weekend on and over the toilet. It was the only meal we had both eaten that day so can't attribute his sickness and diarrhoea to anything else. Such a shame as all other times we've been it's been lovely but we've been put off the place now.

A perfect spot for lunch on a scorcher of a day, under a parasol; fantastic service and food ( the onion bhaji and cauliflower burger comes highly recommended!) Covid restrictions meticulously followed. Thank you;; we will be back again soon!

Fab welcome from Ben. Lovely dining area in the garden. Great food. Only one slight negative was the continuous re visit to the table by waiting staff, constantly removing items and forever being asked is this done with? Can I clear these? Felt like they wanted us out at 21:45??
