Contribute FeedbackThe Horse Jockey, located in a lovely rural setting, has received mixed reviews lately. While the food was praised for being delicious and served with great portions, some customers were disappointed with the limited menu options, slow service, and unfriendly staff. Despite minor complaints about the lack of vegetarian options and service speed, the overall atmosphere was commended for its cozy interior and attentive staff. The prices were reasonable for the quality of food available. Although some had great experiences, others were left wanting more and hesitant to return. Call ahead for a reservation to avoid disappointment.
The staff was friendly, the food was enjoyable, and the atmosphere was pleasant. This is what a Thursday evening should be like.
I genuinely had an amazing experience here! The service was phenomenal, even when my group wanted to change seating areas and they were still so busy! But they got us sorted right away and were so genuine with their interactions with us and others around. The atmosphere was also beautiful. I’m not from here but it’s amazing to see how old things are and well maintained. The people in this place were very lovely. Some even sharing a word or two. Everybody seemed so lovely and kept the atmosphere of the restaurant very homey. And my god the food.. I know I went when I was hungry but I still reckon this was some real good food! I had the BBQ pulled pork sandwich, some cheesy garlic bread and the sticky toffee pudding. And the portions are good sizes, the food tastes great. I honestly highly recommend this place. It was third time lucky for me and my friends. The vibes of the place just made it such a beautiful place to come to for a meal. The dining setting (separate from the bar area) would be perfect for an evening date.
Very disappointed that one person from our party of ten were refused sandwiches and fries, as we were sitting in the restaurant. At the time there were no other customers and yet the only option was for that person to have to sit in the bar alone, disgrace and very disappointed when our overall bill was in excess of £200, inc £18 service charge. Will not recommend out of principle and sheer unhelpfulness. I appreciate bar snacks may not be served in the restaurant however we were a group of 10 and only one that was not feeling particularly well opted for a light option.
Beautiful pub in a lovely rural location. Loads of parking. Staff were attentive and polite. The food was perfect, and I can be very judgemental! Well worth a visit.
We discovered this absolute gem last month, and have been back three times already! I cannot fault it in any way, it’s wonderful.
