This place looks great. On arrival we ordered drinks at the bar and were taken directly to our table. We got the menu and realized that there was almost nothing vegetarian. The more we combed through the menu, the more it seemed like we were headed for a boring meal of chips and another side, as used to be common in gastropubs selling steak in ten different ways. In the end, we found a goats cheese pizza, and it was OK to not have the honey (seems reasonable to put that on if you like it, but pizza?). My wife had a Bhudda Bowl. Compared to the meat-eaters' options, these seemed dull and unimaginative. When the food came (quite promptly) it was absolutely brilliant. So tasty with fresh ingredients and beautifully balanced flavours. Clearly, the chef here is experienced and careful. We could not fault the food. The beer was excellent; the service was excellent and the general ambience was excellent. Even a rather drunk party of 20+ in our dining area barely registered and was rarely noticeable as we were having a good time. Overall, this was a superb meal and a lovely evening. The lack of options for vegetarians was strange, but ultimately not problematic. But now that we've had the options we chose, there is, sadly, no reason to go back unless the menu changes. Even so, I'd recommend this place very strongly, especially for omnivores!

Lovely meal last night at our local. Food was cooked perfectly each of us having a different meal. Service was quick pleasant and the gentleman taking the order was extremely helpful as I forgot my reading glasses.

Visited today to treat our gran on her 96th birthday. Our first visit and certainly won't be our last. Exceeded my expectations with wonderful home-made pie and warm and friendly service from Darren, thank you for making her birthday extra special. We'll see you again soon.

Attended a family birthday event and cannot fault this place. The rooms are clean, comfortable and have everything you need. The evening buffet was exceptional and this was the general consensus. Plenty of it and all delicious. Breakfast included in room price was individually cooked to order and I highly recommend the full English. Delicious with copious supplies of a range of juices, teas and coffee yoghurts, cerials and fresh fruit. I would highly recommend this venue to anyone organizing a get together. It was perfect. Well done to all involved.

What a shame, the service and food really let this lovely venue down. Decor really nice. Booked a table, place fairly empty and table not ready, given a table for 4 for 5 people so squashed up, albeit so much room in restaurant. Table not set up, had to go and find menus ourselves as no one brought them, when food arrived Calzone was charcoal clearly needed another, steak was so tough, vegetables arrived half way through eating and we're withered, not edible. Had to ask for cutlery after all food delivered and when we asked again after a few minutes we're told they were trying to find some. Hopefully this is a one off, but sadly we won't be going back or recommending it.

Went with Friends for a Lunctime meal. The food was OK. I would have liked Cod and chips but they only had haddock (much cheaper white fish). The meal was Haddock, Chips, small meauring cup/tin with mushy peas and a smaller one with curry. Both tins where hot. The portion of fish was large but most of that was fried BATTER. The mushy peas were OK but as they came in a measuring cup with a handle the tin was hot to hold same for the wee tiny portion of curry. After We had all eaten our main meal we were left with no one coming to ask if we would like a dessert. The Pepsi Cola I had was a glass I think it was very very very expensive for a glass of coke. I mean I would have expected to pay the same amount for a pint of bitter. I do not see why pubs charge £4 for a coke when 2 liters at Tesco you can pay 39p and it tastes as good. Its a bit out of the way and on football match days they have SKY Sports which means noisy football fans.

Really nice interior, not what you'd expect, and great food. Very attentive staff. We've driven past many times but this time went out of our way to get food. Found the menu to cover all the types of things I like, it's virtually impossible to find birra tacos anywhere else within twenty miles. Thought the drinks were decent, prices reasonable in comparison to other local pub/restaurants, and there was plenty of parking.

Took myself for lunch, was told to sit where I wanted, others were shown to their table. Service was slow even though they weren't very busy and when my food came out, my plate was red hot, as was the metal container that held my chips and the mini metal pan that held the gravy (which had the handle turned into the plate so I had to dig through my veg to get to it!), they'd obviously been under a hot plate for some time to get so hot and I'm not lying when I said I burnt my fingers when I emptied my chips out! No warning from the waitress that it would be so hot. Food was nice, portions good, but service let them down.

Food was delicious and the setting lovely, the staff were very friendly and they got me in on a Sunday afternoon without a booking. The meal was also reasonably priced at £15.50 for a delicious roast. My only complaint? One roast potato, come on! The best and most important part of a roast should have more than one! It was a delicious potato, it would have been more delicious with some friends.

Came here yesterday for Sunday lunch, and it was beautiful! Decor is gorgeous, and staff were super friendly too. Both my friend and I really enjoyed the food, which we cannot fault at all. I had the gammon on my Sunday lunch and she went for the turkey. Puddings were incredible too, I went for the raspberry meringue pie which was so tasty! Would definitely recommend and will definitely be back!

We stayed for 2 nights and had a bar snack on the Saturday night which was lovely and then 12 of us on Easter Sunday, 3 couples had the butchers block which was really really good food. The breakfasts in the morning were beautiful, we would stay again, only down side was my husband found the bed to hard and didn't sleep too good. But we would stay again as its a lovely pub and good value for money, especially after out premier inn stay only the month before in matlock which was awful. This will be our go to now keep up the good work 👏

Absolutely beautiful food but the problem was it was served on a board. Garden peas? On a board? Ridiculous. Also I had a fish finger sandwich which had tartare sauce drizzled all over it so I couldn't actually pick it up. It was served on grease proof paper which was a bit yuk. Maybe just drain after cooking. Also difficult to eat as it was served on top of the salad that I wanted with my food not after I'd finished the sandwich so I had to deconstruct everything before I could eat. Amazing food but chef needs a little common sense. I would definitely specify that u would like your food served appropriately. For example a plate. Other the that a lovely experience

Lovely surroundings and lovely food, good prices, lost one star because unfortunately the first member of staff who greeted us did have a bit of an attitude and that did spoil the evening slightly as it was our first visit and the greeting on arrival almost made us walk out, glad we stayed for the food though.

I have been working Clay Cross close by for 6 years with regular overnight stays ranging from 1 night to 4 nights and always stayed at another establishment slightly closer to work. November I fancied a change and booked in to the Horse & Jockey and thiwr sister hotel the White Hart to test them out. I am glad I decided to change so much .y company opend an account. In both establishments the rooms, staff and food is in my opinion is perfect especially the Pizza with the blue cheese and jalapeno dip, so much I make it at home now. Keep up the good work.

Lovely pub for a drink I have only eaten here twice both times has been a disappointment. Staff and friendly but very slow the menu we saw online was not the same when we arrived there was no seabass or linguine I'm a pescaterian but no meat the salmon had a chorizo sauce which at first the waitress said they couldn't do without the sauce then later said they could with a hollandaise sauce when it arrived it was cavalo nero that was under cooked with boiled new potatoes and a piece of steamed salmon there was no flavour they charged the main but gave me a free desert I personally would return for a drink but not to eat service was extremely slow

This was such a lovely stay! They price matched with online booking services, they moved some bookings around to accommodate my request for a bath. I was able on this occasion to request a late check out at no extra charge. The food was delicious and by far the best breakfast I've had. The overall vibe was very similar to cottages I've stayed in. I would absolutely stay here again. The only downfall in my opinion was the restaurant staff, they don't check in to see if everything is okay with your food (it wasn't, I was missing a few things from my roast dinner without any comment) the following morning I was having to stop staff as they were walking by multiple times to get a drink and some alternative milk, having to stop staff instead of them coming over to check in made me feel like such a bother but I'd waited for a while and it seemed the only appropriate way to get service.

I'm not sure where to go with this but here we go anyway. Lovely building, interior really nice, nice tables and chairs, staff were efficient, well trained and friendly. We ate in the cellar which was great. Now for the less good bit - Sunday lunch, roast beef, ordered, everything was hot and tasty but the beef was cooked to within an inch of its life and the portion was mean, three scratty bits, all small. The next bit is personal opinion but mange tout and braised pickled red cabbage are not sunday lunch veg. Overall a good experience but I shan't be returning.

Went for breakfast here as a group of 6. Service was really poor. Ignored at the bar on arrival. Waitress was really unhelpful (especially as regards different dietary options) and looked miserable - pulling down the mood. Had to wait for drinks as they hadn't got any soya milk - despite discussing dietary needs when booking - and being assured that there would be no problems) . Food was mostly good, but eggs benedict was terrible as the eggs were effectively hard boiled. Tea had taste of detergent/disinfectant. Was ignored again when trying to pay. When I did pay, I wasn't asked if I was happy with the meal. Having pointed out that we had been significantly undercharged, there was no thank you from the staff, just a recalculation. Not suggesting that my experience will be typical, but it was a pretty bad example and suggests that there is a problem with recruitment/management of staff. Such a pity.
