What gabbyed doesn't like about The Horse Shoe Inn:
Used to really love this pub.. but last night was not a success. We went for a birthday meal as a party of 10. The pub was very quiet.. we had to wait a very long time for starters, they were nice when they arrived.... View all feedback. What DMC likes about The Horse Shoe Inn:
Our bi annual trip to this lovely country pub when we are back in the UK. We were recommended the fish and chips by the very chatty Alan. He was right that the batter on the fish was light and very tasty. The fish and the chips were also good!! Nice pub and friendly staff. See you again when we are back. View all feedback.

The village pub has received mixed reviews, with some disappointed by the service and food quality, while others have had positive experiences. Despite some negative feedback, the pub has been praised for its friendly staff, dog-friendly environment, reasonable prices, and delicious food. The pub's location at the base of Battlestead Hill and the surrounding woodlands also makes it a convenient stop for walkers. Overall, experiences seem to vary depending on the day and the specific dishes ordered. For those willing to give it a try, the warm hospitality and charming atmosphere may make it worth a visit.
