   I’m afraid the service was incredibly slow . Most people were outside in the garden and we rarely saw waiters . So lunch took 3 hours . Food was great though .

   Lovely pub in a pretty village, our party of four had the delicious Sunday roast beef, with very generous portions followed by gorgeous apple and plum crumble and custard. Service was excellent. Would highly recommend and can’t wait to return.

   We had Sunday lunch which was delicious and a good sized plateful. We brought our dog who was made to feel very welcome. The staff were lovely. My only criticism is that the service was a bit slow and inattentive, mainly because the poor girls were rushed off their feet. The management need to put more staff on. We ate in the bar, which was full, as was the main restaurant and garden. However, we will be going back.

   This place used to be lovely - surprised to find it empty on a Saturday night - now we know why! Food rubbish - I would give zero marks- burnt dry burgers and other food looked as if heated out of pack. Service staff really rude acted like they were doing us a favour to talk to us. They should teach the bar staff/ waiting staff to smile and learn customer service. Will not be coming back and if you want a nice meal don’t bother either!

   Great food and service was really helpful and friendly. Enjoy the atmosphere here and appreciate that I can bring my well behaved dog to the bar area.

    We visit the Black Horse about once a year as it is a great midway point between us in London and friends from the midlands. The food and service never disappoint. I had the buffalo chicken wings to start which were a great sized portion and lovely and spicy. Between us we had a range of burgers and a couple of kids meals, all were delicious. We look forward as always to our next visit.
