    This was our first visit to the Black Horse. I had the scotch egg as a starter and my partner had the prawn cocktail. Both were delicious and generous portions. I chose roast porchetta for my main and my partner had the roast beef. There was a lovely selection of vegetables to complement the meal. Again, the portions were very generous, beautifully presented and very flavoursome. The service was first class during this busy Fathers Day Sunday. The drinks are very reasonably priced. We will certainly be returning. It’s a little gem in this lovely village.

    We went on a Wednesday night, it was quiet which made the atmosphere better! We sat in the restaurant which was nice. The food was outstanding and so was the service. The speed of the service was brilliant.
