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.

We have visited the Black Horse many times over many years, especially on New Years Day as a group of eight or ten. In years gone by I used to enjoy the menu a lot more as there used to be more emphasis on the cooking of Game. i.e. pheasant , partridge and venison.

We pay weekly visits as we can. I have not yet anywhere to compare to The Black Horse for lunch. Always friendly, courteous and a moment to chat. Anne and George, Detling.

The roast lamb was thickly cut and also had gristle. However, it had a nice taste. Vegetables were not inspiring. Why you get a large Yorkshire Pudding is a mystery
