"Have never been to this pub before as recently moved to Horncastle and we have devised a list of all the pubs to visit. We have visited a few since moving, but this far outweighs the others. I am gluten and dairy intolerant and the DO catered for all my needs, the dishes for both needs were amazing. Food normally is bland and poorly presented, but not in this case, the taste was amazing and presentation was the same as I would expect from a high end restaurant. We thoroughly enjoyed our lunch, that we booked in for the following week with friends. Staff very polite and friendly it was a pleasure being in their company. I could go on raving about this gem but I will stop, but it won't be our last visit that's for sure. Dietary restrictions: Gluten and Dairy Free. Husband all in Price per person: £40–50 Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5 Recommended dishes: Fish and Chips, Haddock Hand Cut Fries, Steak and Ale Pie, Lemon&Lime Cheese Cake"

The restaurant offers a dedicated vegan menu with a wide variety of options, as well as an excellent selection of desserts. I visited on a Sunday and had the vegan hut cake, which I highly recommend.

I enjoyed a delightful, laid-back meal here during Storm Babet. The service was friendly and efficient, the food was excellent, and the prices were reasonable. I opted to take dessert home since the weather was deteriorating, and there were no issues with that. I'm already looking forward to returning soon!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the van parking area located at the back. The spot is well-maintained, level, and peaceful. Everything was easily accessible, reasonably priced, and the hosts were both charming and friendly. The food was outstanding, and the interior of the pub/restaurant was delightful. Kerry and Jacqui can be very proud of their establishment. We will definitely be back! Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5

The Durham Ox is ideally situated for exploring the Lincolnshire aviation trail, with RAF Coningsby just a few miles away. Additionally, Woodhall Spa and the charming market town of Horncastle are only a short walk away. Overall, the Durham Ox has so much to offer, and as a couple, we feel it gets better with each visit. We can't wait to return in December! Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5 Recommended dishes: Homemade Cheesecakes, Haddock with Hand-Cut Fries

"Booked stayed at this place very recently having read the excellent reviews. As a very level headed person, certainly not delusional I failed in trying to recognise or match the place based on any of the reviews posted on Booking.com The place, whilst very quaint appealing from the outside is in direct contrast to the inside! In reality, it 's very much in dire need of deep cleaning, redecorating and refurbishing. The food, not sure who prepared the meals in the reviews I read, but fail to see how it could be the same chef as the one that cooked ours! Our meals arrived no less than 40 minutes after ordering. The drinks to occupy us while we waited never did arrive when our meals finally arrived served (if slapping on the table warrants being called served three out of the five items that made up the meal were uncooked, cold unedible! The excuse given by the waitress, is far too busy and understaffed, yet despite not being able to fulfil the job paid for, they still take fee paying guests who are treated far less than second class citizens to the regular clientele supping at the bar! Far too busy but not enough to stop them from taking longer than necessary to laugh talking to the regulars! Needless to say, we ate at other places for the rest of our stay. DO NOT BE FOOLED, as we were by the reviews, which have stayed are extremely questionable indeed! If one is used to using hostels I can see this could be deemed as good, if not excellent accommodation. On the flip side, if one is used to hotels that are clean customer focused then this hotel (a grand name for nothing more than a public house with accommodation not a very good or pleasant one at that is not the one for you!!"
