Went here with my wife and kids. Food was really good fresh, qualitiy ingredients (not your cheap whetherspoons stuff) , reasonable wait times about 30 minutes for food. Prices were reasonable vs food quality

Went last night had Ribeye steak, husband had fish and chips, service was quick and friendly. The food was good, got my NHS discount so a good price too. Steak of good quality for the price, did arrive well done instead of med but not burn so happy enough The pub was really busy vertually ever table full, staff seemed calm must have been enough of them to cope, nice to see these days, the staff were cleaning up well, keeping on top of everything Would visit again as local and a good nip to for tea

I’ve visited the Bay Horse for food before but never stayed at the hotel. The service on arrival was friendly and welcoming which was lovely. I’d booked a double room but had a family room. It was clean and comfy with all the essentials. The breakfast was great and again really friendly service Really good value and I’d definitely stop here again.

Christmas Dinner was my worst experience ever! Food was shocking and such a let down, booked for Christmas day and it was horrendous, carrots under cooked, scrapps of Turkey, parsnips hard, pigs in blankets still white, when asked waitrose? Thats how they come, which costs us an extra £12 came white, Asked for mint sauce & the waitress never returned, best thing on the plate was was peas,gravy & stuffing, this guy should not be in a kitchen it was a £100 joke😧 wont be ever booking again, need to look for a new chef🫣

We only went for a drink and it was our first time in there. On walking upto it the first thing I thought was it needs painting especially the woodwork. The inside is geared towards families with kids with machines. We sat in the back part of the pub where all the chairs seem different at the dining tables. It looked like they'd got chairs from closed down pubs or something like that. I couldn't believe how many staff were on for a very quiet day. In fact they out numbered the customers at one point. The pub looks unloved and in dire need of a major refurb. That's not an easy thing in today's financial climate. Having said that i wouldn't go a second time and sadly that's the way pubs are going.

Been in here a few times and I have to say I was pleasantly surprised. The staff are always very friendly and will always have a laugh with customers. Nothing worse than staff members that won’t say anything other than the script. I find the food is great value for money and you can’t go wrong with the 2 burgers for 1 on a Thursday, I always ensure I skip breakfast to squeeze in the 2nd burger. I will definitely be visiting on a regular basis. Ant the GM is always helpful and interacts with the customers and guests too, I also feel that his team are a credit to him and they never let him down.

I wouldn't expect a gourmet steak for £15 but would expect to be able to chew it. Literally 40 minute wait between starters and main course, chips very under cooked, would have complained but waitress already told us she was having a bad day!! Not really family friendly, quite a lot of rather loud rather drunk patrons in the bar and several barking dogs sat around tables. Won't be coming back.

This is the worst place I've been in for years complete lack of customer service and an aggressive rude member of staff .When you book a table I think it's reasonable to expect a staff member to greet you and perhaps show you to it and explain how to order not here stood for ages after entering eventually someone said to go through then after sitting for ages a customer told us you had to order at the bar stood there for 20 minutes while the old lady deliberately served every single person that came to the bar after me I eventually caught her her eye smiled and asked if i was invisible to be told don't start ill get to you when I'm ready we left but noticed outside that I had chewing gum stuck to the arm if my jacket place is filthy can only imagine this establishment is still financially viable because of its close proximity to the race course because it should be avoided at all costs unless you enjoy appalling customer service and aggressive rude old women

Great Pub to go to for quiz night. Only time we ever go so take that into consideration. The price of a vodka coke is steep considering how little vodka coke you get versus just ordering a coke which comes in a glass twice as large for half the price. Besides that the atmosphere on quiz night is great. Host has loads of energy and seems like a chill guy. The women manning the bar tend to be quite friendly and nice too. Oh and Parkings great if thats up your alley

Estoy de acuerdo con las otras críticas sobre el olor y la mala calidad de la cerveza, solo desearía haberlas leído primero. Normalmente un pub independiente es mejor que una cadena, pero esta pronto habría tenido una nueva gestión si fuera parte de una cadena. No sirve comida, que es igual de bien porque dudo que obtenga un certificado de higiene. En cuanto al olor, no estoy seguro de si son los baños o la humedad general, pero probablemente dice por qué era tan tranquilo. Se necesita un bebedor empedernido para ser feliz aquí.
