County Dining Pub of the Year 2021 – The Good Pub Guide
The Black Horse prides itself on serving delicious home-cooked food based on traditional British recipes with a continental/Mediterranean twist. Our highly qualified chefs are passionate about using the finest, freshest ingredients and support local farms and estates by sourcing ingredients locally where possible. Because we only use fresh produce, our menus are changed seasonally so that our talented chefs can create beautiful dishes bursting with flavours at their best.
Lunch & Dinner
Our a la carte menu offers a range of dishes to suit all moods and tastes, from culinary classic such as our renowned Beer Battered Fish & Chips and 7oz Beef Burger with Bacon & Cheese to modern and exciting dishes that change throughout the year.
This menu is currently available Wednesday to Saturday 12pm-2pm and 6pm-9pm.
Sunday Lunch
On Sundays we are open for an extended lunch serving food from 12pm – 4:30pm serving a range of top quality roast meats sourced from local farms, accompanied with fresh market vegetables, crisp golden roast potatoes and of course our impressive homemade Yorkshire Pudding! For those customers who prefer not to have a roast dinner, there are a variety of other dishes available.
With a mini roast for children, The Black Horse is the perfect venue for a family meal out.
Children
We welcome children at The Black Horse and our Children’s Menu offers a range of quality, home-cooked dishes suitable for children up to 10 years old, which is available to view on our menus page. Children over 10 years can order from our main menus as the majority of our dishes can be served as half portions at a reduced price. Our staff are also happy to cater for any particular food requests your child may have, as we understand the importance of keeping your little ones happy.
Dietary Requirements
We strive to cater for all dietary requirements; as long as you let our team know in advance, our chefs are happy to discuss any particular requests prior to you dining at The Black Horse.
Every dish on our menu that is gluten free (gf) and dairy free (df) or is gluten free adaptable (gfa) and dairy free adaptable (dfa) is clearly marked, making it easy for those of you who suffer with gluten and/or dairy intolerance to see what dishes are available for you to enjoy – without the discomfort later!
We also offer a range of gluten free beer and wine.
All our menus are available to view online.
Drink
We are as serious about the drink we sell as the food we serve and aim to cater for everyone’s taste. Our real ales are carefully selected and served on draught, along with premium craft lagers and stout. As well as the well-known brands we also pride ourselves on offering more unique names; award winning British handcrafted Camden Hells, Camden Pale and Beavertown Neck Oil IPA lagers and ales and Orchard Thieves and Chapel Down Curious Apple premium English ciders.
We have an impressive range of liquors, malt whiskey, fine brandy and quality Armagnac.
We also boast an extensive choice of wine, hand-picked by the Manager in conjunction with our wine supplier Ellis of Richmond established in 1822. We strive to select hand crafted wines from small growers and award-winning wineries (both abroad and British), who share our passion for value and quality.
Our cocktails are expertly crafted from top quality ingredients, which means they taste as amazing as they look . So if you crave something coffee, fancy something fruity or have a penchant for something posh, we have the perfect cocktail for you!
However, maybe you fancy something a little less alcoholic! In that case why not try one of our Green Bottle Company infused presses, Frobishers fruit juices, Fentimens botanical drinks, range of Frobisher’s Fusions and many more soft drink favourites.
We use award-winning Teapigs for our tea and local Wooden Hill Coffee Company for our coffee, both big on ethical sourcing and plastic-free packaging, reducing our carbon foot-print whilst still offering you top quality taste with every sip.
We only offer full table service, so take a seat and we’ll bring the drinks to you!
