Lovely Sunday Lunch

Jun 2021 • none

We decide to go out for Sunday Lunch, years ago we used to go th the Horse and Jockey, so we thought we would give it a try. We were not disappointed, on arrival we were greeted with covid precautions, before being taken to our table by a very pleasant young lady, she gave us time to settle before coming to ask what drinks we required. They only had a Sunday lunch menu, but even so there was enough choice. We both had the same( very boring!) Prawn cocktail, which was more than enough, but delicious, then Lamb, roast potatoes and mash were on the plate, and what I did like was the gravy came separate as did the other four vegetables. The atmosphere was good too, in these difficult times. All in all, we had a very enjoyable time.

Wonderful

Aug 2020 • family

I visited with my Mum this evening for dinner, this was her first meal out since before lockdown and we were not disappointed. We both had the home-made steak and ale pie which was fabulous, huge chunks of tender steak, melt in your mouth pastry and the most amazing gravy, together with gorgeous chips. Very large portions and extremely good value. All the staff were very friendly and helpful and made us feel very welcome. We will definitely visit again and would highly recommend. Thank you for making my Mum's first post-Covid dining experience so wonderful.

Sizzling Steak

Apr 2022 • none

Our second visit which was as good as the first. A great pub that has a mix of walkers/locals etc, very friendly & welcoming. Starters came with a lovely site salad(not the usual lettuce/tomato)but everything & fresh too. A sizzling steak on its way to a customer…we were sold on the smell as it passed by. We ordered ribeye, very nice & you cook it to your liking on the hot stone.

Sunday dinner - not too good

Jan 2020 • none

We have eaten here a few times before and it has been very good, but we always had steaks. We decided to have mid afternoon dinner to avoid the crowds, that may have been our mistake. When the dinners come out they were absolutely drowned in gravy, hardly any roast potatoes and the Yorkshire puddings were soggy, like they had been microwaved. We got the feeling the food had been plated up and kept warm waiting for us to come in, we were the only ones in the restaurant. The starters and deserts were excellent hence the average rating. When I go back I will definitely be sticking to the steaks. This is the only bad meal I've had there and I always give a place a second chance if they have been good in the past. There are a lot of very good eating places in the area, so they need to up their game.

Cream Tea on sunny day in May.

May 2021 • none

As the pub had just started doing cream teas, we thought we’d give it a try. Glad we did, as the food was very nice, with a good variety of sweet and savoury treats. There was plenty of it as well (doggy bag!). Very good value, and the young lady who served us was very polite and efficient.

DIsappointing evening

Jul 2019 • none

On arrival, collected our drinks from the bay. After 30 min. wait went to bar to get someone to take our order another 30 minutes for the first course to arrive and the chips were "floppy" and a disappointment. We wont be returning any time soon

Family holiday

May 2019 • none

The Horse and Jockey have been great. We had food from them 4 times in our 3 generation holiday to Northwood. We had a lovely lunch here, 6 adults, 2 toddlers and 4 dogs (who got given biscuits). A steak night was delicious - fun to cook your own steak on the hot stones. The other 2 evening meals were prepared especially for us as take aways as we couldn’t leave sleeping toddlers. It was all very good. Staff friendly and welcoming. We couldn’t fault it and would definitely return on another holiday. Thank you.

Not been

May 2019 • couples

I feel that I have missed something here because I have not been to the horse and jockey since it was revamped and that was over three years ago. Really good food here thoroughly recommended, will try to make it a bit more often. Excellent food at really sensible prices. Must visit more often, well deserving of support. Get there.

Excellent food for all ages

Apr 2019 • family

Pre booked for an 18th birthday family celebration for 16 from ages 70+ down to 3 years of age. As we were a large group we were asked to preorder our food and so all meals were served together. Meals all hot, good sized portions.. children’s portions of pasta very generous. Lovely to have the steak brought to table sizzling. Steak pie .. to quote someone whose had many ‘ in top 3 ever tasted!’ So a resounding endorsement and with separate servings of chips and veg make for a very substantial meal. Burgers, gammon and fish all tasty too. Empty plates sent back to kitchen shows how much we all enjoyed. Lovely atmosphere and will return very soon. Thank you

Apr 2019 • couples

Booked a table for two. Arrived and was served rather quickly. I had a Gammon which near on covered the plate and my partner had hunters chicken. Both meals where very nice and plenty of it. The staff where very helpful and came around and asked if everything was ok. We will be making a second visit sometime soon.
