The Black Horse Pembury

Popped in for a late lunch with my wife and sat in the garden in the sunshine. Friendly bar staff. Both had the mussels starters which were ok and the bread was nice. My wife had the surf and turf main, priced at £40, which...surely would deliver at that price. Sadly not. The lobster was ok but the steak, cooked rare as requested, was grey, under seasoned and tasteless. She didn't finish it and didn't even bother asking for a doggy bag.

We hardly needed a dessert, but they were great! The service was excellent. we understand that the owners were away, but the staff clearly took pride in working at the Black Horse. We'll be back!

Cosy, traditional pub with an open fire and a huge menu. We were there for Sunday lunch and the choice was amazing the four of us had everything from tempura crab to fillet steak to chicken curry to fish and chips. Similarly good drinks...menu, including excellent Malbec. Excellent, friendly service. Two courses for four people including drinks came to £142.75. The pub’s popularity was underlined on the January Sunday we were there by barely an empty table in what’s a fairly large pub.

michelle and the team were amazing. I suffer a lot with allergies, but that wasn't a problem at all. instead of telling me everything I didn't have, michelle concentrated on everything I had. I had so much choice and nothing was too much trouble....Word the black horse recommended to everyone.

Enjoyed a wonderful Sunday carvery here today. Excellent value and massive portions. Lots of choice, beautifully cooked meats and delicious veggies. Super kind, friendly and helpful staff too. A la carte menu was extensive and looked great, just in case you don't fancy the amazing...carvery.
