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.

Excellent food and lovely setting. Service was good given how busy they were. Pleasant staff, though we weren't told about the specials board - only saw it by chance. Would definitely go again.

We had a lovely young bar man who actually gave us a lift into Maidstone once the bar shut as there were no available taxis. The staff were very helpful and could not do enough for you. Would thoroughly recommend..... Thanks you

The food was amazing. Incredibly tasty, and the service was great. The bed in our room, however, was very uncomfortable though. Very hard and we didn’t get a great night’s sleep. I would not stay over again.
