About Black Horse
Pub like a country tavern in the suburbs with roaring fires, a variety of ales and home-cooked grub.
First licensed in 1751 this was an old Clutterbuck & Co.'s house. The present building was enlarged in 1938. Smart, comfortably furnished and decorated in contemporary style. The flooring is a mixture of wood and carpets whilst the walls are adorned with modern prints and units. Tuesday are Quiz Nights. Food is available daily until 10pm. The pub now offers a takeaway service. All real ales are currently (April 2024) £3.85 on a Monday and Thursday.

Extremely enjoyable time and meal in here. Plenty of choices on the menu that are not your "typical" pub food dishes. We ordered four different mains and all were very tasty! Good range of draft beers, and a decently priced wine list. Service was prompt and friendly, atmosphere was super, sound travel from neighbouring tables was zero. Huge outdoor seating area with some wooden booths, hopefully we'll try one of those out next time!

We waited for nearly an hour for starters to come to the table (these tasted fine) then our mains came out after a substantial delay.

Dishes that we chose, were not available (grilled sea bass, chicken and leek pie, no cod for the fish and…

My daughter’s sausage and mash came out as sausage and chips, we had to send it away twice as it kept coming back as sausage and chips. My son got his main before…
