"while we go out for christmas and to the second week of the year, it is time to let the Sunday-Mittags path up and running. we drove for a long overdue return to the black horse in brentwood, which is part of the vintage inns chain. I am also very pleased to say that we have not been left in the least. at our arrival we received a nice greeting that contained a reception from manager leigh before we sit at our table. we started with a drink while we watch the menu. Once we have made our decisions, our waitress nina, which I must say, has taken our order very friendly and professionally during our lunch. we started with a Prawn cocktail and the often baked button portobello mushrooms. these dishes were a joy and a great opportunity to begin. now we moved on to the roasted and young we were for a tasty bite. my wife chose the Roast Torkei and for me I had to choose the trio froms that was a mixture of black bell, truthahnbeef. the roasts were accompanied with a selection of sweet, bratkartoffeln, yorkshire pudding, gravur and of course the additional flower cauliflower cheese. we needed a little break before we finished dessert. that gave us the chance to have a chat with manager leigh. to dessert my wife chose the eton mess and on waitress ninas recommended I chose the banoffee pie with toffee sauce. we finished with a coffee to finish a fantastic Sunday dinner. the food and service was excellent and can really not expect to visit again soon. I would definitely recommend a visit as this is a great place for couples, small and large groups where they can enjoy good eating along with friendly service. many thanks to leigh and the whole team especially our waitress nina, who really took care of us and is looking forward to seeing them very soon."

"My experience at this restaurant was great, especially in terms of their understanding of veganism. The staff spoke about their training to understand nutritional requirements, which was reassuring. I have eaten here four times, as it is conveniently located close to my house. However, I prefer dining in a pub with a fireplace! This pub offers a completely vegan menu, and the staff are happy to help with any special requests. The burger and chips were a simple but satisfying option, and the dessert was a welcome change from the usual vegan curry found in other pubs nearby. I do wish they would include a side dish (at no additional cost) as the portions were a bit small. Adding some veggies would make a difference for veggie lovers like myself! The sauce on the edge of the tart tasted like ketchup, which I found a bit odd. Perhaps a red pepper sauce or red pesto would be a better choice for decorating. I also tried the soup and Thai curry, both of which were just okay for the price. However, the highlight of the meal was definitely the delicious pudding options. The chocolate torte and pecan tart were amazing. If I could change one thing, it would be to have the pecan tart served warm. Overall, the best vegan desserts I've had in any restaurant in Broxbourne. Taking a beautiful walk along the rivers nearby and ending with a meal at this pub would make for a perfect day out."

"I was looking for a lunch venue for friends that were coming to Eastbourne for the day, I looked online for somewhere that would suit one vegetarian one gluten free and one who for medical reasons needed to choose from the children's menu. The Beachy Head menu looked perfect, I also asked for a window table. When we arrived we were given paper menus that were nothing like the online versions, and no window table. On querying the difference in menu choices we were told head office put the online menu on and It wasn't available here! What is the point of doing my research only to find it wasn't a true representation of what was on offer? I can't let this go unanswered, it wasn't me (a local) who approached the bar it was one of my guests, I didn't see the online menu she showed you but I can confirm that the menu I was looking at online when I made the booking was from the Beachy Head website which looked perfect with the choices, but was nothing like the paper menus we were handed on arrival. The children's menu that was online didn't appear at all, which was a specific requirement when I drove to the venue in person and booked it. Also I don't know who you are referring to in your reply because we were a party of three not five, booked weeks in advance. I have looked at the cuckmere Inn website and as part of vintage Inns their menu is identical, so I can see what you mean when you told my guest it is put on by Head office. I was disappointed on the day with the menu, especially after extensive research beforehand, but the venue itself was beautiful as a local I know it well, and the staff were very friendly, it has been a valuable lesson in double checking before booking."
