Excellent food and the young man serving was not only helpful and attentive, but very friendly and welcoming. A very good experience overall.

Table was nice however difficult for access due to being against the window and high chairs at the other end. No children's cutlery despite having a children's menu, no offer of replacing cutlery after the starters. Service was really slow and the food was cool for some of the meals. Complained about vegetarian sausage and mash as it wasn't cooked.

Hi there, I'm so sorry your visit wasn't perfect! I apologise about the seating & cutlery (you can always request a different table). I'm taking your feedback seriously and fixing the cutlery issue. My records show that your starters arrived within 15 mins, and your mains 20-25 mins later. I understand if it felt longer & apologise for this. During the checkback, our team member was not advised of any concerns regarding food quality or service time. However, I am glad our staff member took the initiative and removed a dessert from your final bill when made aware at the end (rightly so). I hope you'll give us another chance! Kind Regards, Lisa

Noise level very loud with lots of drinkers, some stood around us, could not hear one another. We were very disappointed with the main course, parts of it not cooked properly, quite a small portion, it did not feel special, just loud boozy pub. Three sprouts, a few carrots, three very small potatoes, two hard undercooked parsnips, one pale inedible undercooked pig in blanket, two watery pieces of turkey. We thought they took on too much and struggled to do both, perhaps should have stuck to the drinkers. Although the staff were friendly and did their best, we only had three courses, leaving early and keen to get home. Certainly not worth £60 each, was nothing like advertised, the experience surprised us as we have eaten at the Black Horse before and enjoyed it.

The staff were lovely and helpful. I spoke to the manager about the prawn cocktail and it's all lettuce and not much else. The dinner was plentiful but I think it is a reheat able meal the same applies to the pudding. We had a table for three and we were the only ones there. Your staff are lovely I would hate to see them fail.
