We try to support local businesses so, having spotted that The Black Horse had a pie night for the Jubilee, we walked the 40 mins from our home in anticipation of some good pub grub. We sat in the garden and ordered our food; sausage pie and mash for me and Exmoor pie for my husband. The food arrived and the member of staff said he would fetch the cutlery and gravy. It took about 5 mins. They haven’t got the service quite right. My mash didn’t look appetising. It was sort of squashed flat on the plate but I poured on the gravy and tucked in. It was cold. Everything was cold; peas, pie, gravy. My husbands chips were hot but everything else was cold. We should have complained but we’d had such...
We went to this pub for Mother’s Day and it is located in a charming village with a spacious garden area, although there was no play equipment for children and the tables were covered in bird droppings. The setting was nice and we took a walk to the river and back after our meal. The table was nicely arranged with small touches like chocolates and flowers for the ladies in our group. We rate it 3 stars because the service was slow, with inexperienced young waitresses, despite having preordered our meals. We had to repeatedly ask for dishes and drinks that never arrived, and there were long waits between courses and getting the bill. The food was hit and miss, with the pork dish being disappo...
We went to the Black Horse in Hurdcott for their pie and pint night. A great selection of pies and ciders to choose from. I had the steak and stilton pie and my girlfriend chose the duck and cherry pie, both of which were absolutely delicious. As for the ciders I couldn't choose a favourite from the 4 I tried and there were plenty more i didnt try! Friendly staff and a great atmosphere, we will definitely be going back again.
I didn't want to stop here as we were the only customers and the place didn't seem inviting. The garden wasn't cared for and a bit overgrown. We decided to give it a go and had lunch. It was awful, cheap white bread with tasteless cheese and pickle. The salad leaves were tired and brown. The only thing that saved it was the chips, which were quite nice. Wouldn't go back.

The manager neither greeted us or gave us menus. We chose our food and waited nearly 90 minutes. When my “cheesy spinach stilton pie” arrived it was filled with sliced potatoes and one spinach leaf. The other pies were uninspiring. This was the first and last time we will go to this pub.
I have been here on many occasions,the food has always been really really delicious especially the chunky chips,the staff are friendly helpful,a lovely village pub off the main road so nice quiet
Lovely location, plenty of tables inside out in the beer garden, friendly staff. The meals looked lovely but I wasn't hungry but had to find room for the orange cointreau gateaux...so glad I did.
I stopped by for a quick pint in the late afternoon, so the pub was quiet. Despite the calm atmosphere, it was a charming spot with ample garden space.

They ran out of Guinness so we decided not to go inside the restaurant.
