The Horse and Groom has been serving the needs of locals and passers-by alike for some 300 years, and with all that history the building exudes character and atmosphere from every beam and flagstone.
You'll find log fires burning, lots of cosy corners to tuck yourself away, and a well-stocked bar right at the heart of things.
Our chefs create delicious seasonally inspired menus in the theme of modern British cookery, always including hearty classic pub favourites as well as introducing something a little different, or a little lighter for all occasions.
Our passion lies in finding quality fresh ingredients and preparing, cooking and presenting them in a modern but unpretentious way. Our menus have a spine of classic British dishes complemented by more exotic influences from other parts of the world.

Third visit for lunch with friends. Each time an imaginative and different menu. As a vegetarian I often end up with poor choices but here all were tempting and delicious. all food was hot, well presented , and cooked. Helpful professional service.AND NO MUSIC, thank you ...other pubs please note!
It's our local pub and is always busy and friendly. Dog friendly and nice helpful staff. Food is always nice 🙂 Lovely roast dinners. You can relax in there and enjoy family and friend time
Great service and good food. A busy place but plenty of staff. I had the gluten free Fish and Chips and it was delicious. The best I have had locally.
First time here for Sunday dinner, wow wow wow! The food was piping hot, I can be very fussy and people may say £22ish for Sunday roast is on the high side but the portions are massive and such good quality. Dog friendly and lovely atmosphere! Also love the hot drink/ little pudding idea which is perfect to end a large meal! Also the broccoli/ blue cheese soup, just exquisite! We will be back :) it felt like a Christmas dinner, that is how good it was!
This pub has such great character and it's always a pleasure to visit here. I regularly come here for the fish and chips as they consistently serve you delicious food that is tasty, piping hot and fresh. The brownie is superb as well - rich, gooey, and with melting chocolate chunks. Highly recommend
