| The Horse and Jockey is now in the safe pair of hands of Jack and Cath, a husband and wife team of many years experience in the pub trade. I must confess that over the last five years this pub that I love dearly has had more landlords than I've had hot dinners, and it has been an uncertain time for those who have shared great times at this picturesque hostelry. My wife and I returned there on Monday 20th June for a pub meal, just after the opening time of 6pm. Cath greeted us on our arrival and we felt that we had 'come home' again after our intermittent visits of recent years. The evening meal is traditional pub fare, nothing fancy but fairly priced, and our orders of cod and chips and butterfly chicken in barbecue sauce were not only very tasty, but also consisted of substantial portions. We feel that Jack and Cath can really make this place shine again, and we intend to do our bit by returning regularly and supporting a really great pub. southernman - 21 Jun 2011 22:23 |
| My husband and I ate there last Tuesday and I would NOT recommend this place at all and definately will not be eating there again. The pub was not that busy yet we waited ages 945 minutes) for our starters. My husband has ordered steak and his peppercorn sauce tasted as it they had dropped an entire jar of salty seamen into it. By the time another sauce came his meal had gone cold. The service was poor yet the waiting staff had enough time to talk and flick teatowels at each other in front of their hungry guests!! They really need to sort out their customer service. If they had offered him a coffee or reheated his meal it would have been something but as it was they lost two desserts and coffees as we left.

| My wife & I went there for dinner the other night, and again, were NOT disappointed. The food and drink were great. Ales on offer are from George Gale & Co, I enjoyed a pint of HSB with my excellent plate of bangers and mash. The staff were friendly and attentive; the food was piping hot and just the right quantity. davel_cats - 24 Feb 2011 12:28 |
| First visit to the H&J last night, and I was v. impressed. Food was top notch pub grub. I had a perfect Ribeye. Beers on offer were standard Fullers fare (It is a Fullers pub now after all). Staff very friendly and efficient. Overall 8/10, let down only by the price of drink - £8.20 for 2 pints and a water FFS! DTR2K - 1 May 2010 10:11 |
