"this is one of three pubs in the village great glen, of which two eat (the other is the pug and greyhound). the building is old and pleasant atmosphere, with very friendly staff. there is a pub garden for sunny days. the menu is meat heavy, but has a few vegan options (burger, mushroom cake) and a vegetarian option (risotto). I had the Harissa skewers for beginners who were very nice, followed by the mushroom cake. there was a lot of baked (and I say that as Carb-Queen), but the cake filling was delicious and the chips were great. the pub is owned by greene king, so the right choice is often limited, but in the night we went, they had something black sheep on. a fly in the anointing was that my wife, who is allergic on earth, had to sign something in the ground (on an ipad) until the day she could eat there. it did not feel very friendly, or as if they wanted to care for their allergy rather than an inconvenience and they did not want to sue them. Moreover, the meal was delicious and pleasant enough. updated by the previous review on 2021-06-27"

The vegan roast was a delicious pastry wellington filled with vegetables. It was very flavorful and satisfying. The restaurant had a friendly atmosphere and a lovely beer garden. I would definitely return again.

We were travelling to Cambridge and needed somewhere to stop along the way. It was great to have a few different options to choose from. We ordered the mushroom and ale pie, burger, and cheesecake. The portion sizes were good and the service was quick. View menu

came here because my usual bike tour caffe stop was closed. it does not mention anything about having soy milk on their website, but they do so that I had a cup of tea. the vegan chocolate skyberry torte was really nice. service was fast, friendly and a nice cozy atmosphere inside.

Came here because my usual bike ride café stop was closed. It doesn't mention anything about having soya milk on their website but thankfully they do so I had a cup of tea. The vegan chocolate raspberry torte was really nice. Service was quick, people friendly and a nice cosy atmosphere inside.

We had the vegan burgers with chips and really enjoyed them. The lunch menu is good value excellent portion at £7 each. The sides don’t have vegan labelling on the menu for some reason so double check with their allergen folder. We sat in the garden and had a very relaxing hour with our newborn. The pub itself is huge too and beautifully decorated. Staff were friendly. Only downside is the corridor to the toilets is really dark and the lights therein take a while to come on so I know some of my family with sight issues wouldn’t feel comfortable. Not a problem if you’ve got great vision though of course! View menu

The menu primarily features meat dishes, but there are a couple of vegan options available such as a burger and mushroom pie, as well as a vegetarian option in the form of risotto. For my meal, I enjoyed the harissa skewers for starters which were delicious, followed by the mushroom pie that had a generous amount of pastry. The pie filling was tasty and the chips were also great. Owned by Greene King, the pub's real ale selection can sometimes be limited, but on the night of our visit they had Black Sheep available. However, a minor issue arose when my wife, who has a peanut allergy, had to sign a waiver on an iPad indicating that she was aware of the risk of exposure. This made us feel le...

"I visited my daughter and son-in-law last week and on my request they had booked a table for us on black horse on Saturday night at 1 o'clock. we arrived shortly before the pm and all four of us stood in the bar where two were served. it wasn't busy. no one told us anything until the bar was clear and then one of the ladies looked at me and I said we booked a table in my name of my daughter and she saw the bookings and said oh yes, we had table assigned and pointed into another room. there was no greeting no smiling, so we met our way to the table and sat there. there were no menus on the table, so I stood up to find some and someone only made their way from the other room in the direction of our table. we ordered drinks that were in themselves a task, as they had no free or dietary limmonade, so I had to go to the end for a gin with slimline tonic. then we ordered four different meal times. I ordered a vegetarian curry in naanbrot and when it finally came, I was so disappointed because the naanbrot was burned and the curry was cold on the outside, so I asked them to take it back. the waitress asked if I wanted to order something else and I went back. my daughter then shared some of her meals with me, who were chicken pupils. they were coated in a teig that was extremely fat. the menu does not seem to come out of any meal with fresh vegetables, everything seemed to come with chips and draughts, even the Steak-Mahl came only with chips and draughts, no mushrooms, tomatoes, wobble rings or something. I wasn't impressed. for a pub that wants good reviews, I think they have lost the property. the customer service is everything and fresh vegetables is essential. I'm sorry to be the bearer worse, but we won't come back."
