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.

Service was poor. When I get there I walk to the desk near to the bar, expecting to be told where is my table. 2 waitresses ware there and they completely ignored me and walk away to do something. When I said something the waitress said “ be patient “ . I was angry. I thought if I’m not a foreigner they probably have seen me instead of pretending that I wasn’t there. I was very disappointed. I won’t be back to your restaurant again.

Service wasn’t good, and we are not one to complain specially as I used to work as a Waitrose but the service was so slow the whole time. My sons food came out later (specifically asked it to come with our starters) and I think it’s just common sense that you bring the children’s food first, when his did come he had beans when I had ordered peas and the plate was piping hot so had to ask for another plate to transfer the food onto, I said I asked for peas and the Waitrose didn’t say much just I thought she might apologise as they ill bring them straight out but didn’t. Once eaten I asked for another portion of peas (he didn’t eat the beans of course) while we eat our mains. They never came, well they did but once he was eating his desert? Again ordered pudding straight away as they cleared our mains plates as we realised how slow everything was and it was still a 30 minute wait snd when I asked if we could just cancel it as it was taking to long and we needed to leave and the waitress said the fondant takes 12 minutes hence the wait. Well that didn’t explain the 30 minute wait, snd no one told us this. By the end I just wanted to leave it was not a good experience and it’s a shame as we hardly find the time to go out and eat as a family. Food wasn’t of the normal standard, majority of my partners mussles were closed up.

Had my dad's 70th birthday meal here, table of 12 the food was amazing, staff were friendly and helpful. All 12 of us had rooms and were happy with them. Breakfast was great too. This was the 2nd time I have have been here and will return. Plus we will recommend to more family and friend. Thank you for a wonderful time to make great memories
