The Black Horse in Huntingdonshire

The food was Beautiful, Great service- the staff were all really friendly and accomdating. Loved all the festive Christmas decorations.

We have eaten here before and had a great experience. We came for a birthday celebration as a table of 10 and did a pre order. We had a drinks order taken and food arrived shortly after at 6pm which was great. We were not then offered another drink for the rest of the meal despite taking our plates away and bringing desserts. When one of our party asked the female staff member for some more drinks, he was told to go to the bar to order despite us being a table of 10 and sat at a table which I thought was rude. He said we have a few drinks to order and she said she would come back shortly, she then proceeded to stand around drinking red bull. At this point we no longer wanted to purchase a drink here it had been 5 minutes and still no drinks order taken. Our bill was £283 so you’d think we’d have been offered a better service. We had to ask for the bill and had to go to the bar ourselves to pay the bill. Table service was non existent after our pre ordered puddings were bought out. Very disappointed. Also wouldn’t recommend the biscoff cheesecake it was awful and the texture was definitely not that of a cheesecake more like a rubbery mousse

A pre Christmas family get together which was delightful. Fantastic service as ever from Jake and all the team. Highly recommend and can’t wait to come back in 2025.

Great food as usual. The roast potatoes were the best we have ever had in a pub restaurant. The only criticism from me is not enough of them (I am greedy though). Would we visit again. A big fat YES.

Really looked after by the staff, great space and good food. Everything we wanted from the visit. Easy to get to from the A1 and a lovely village.

Good atmosphere. Food well cooked and presented. Very little choice for a vegetarian who doesn’t like peppers though.

Lovely Sunday lunch! Large portion! Excellent quality! Delicious desserts! Staff friendly and helpful. Would recommend.

This is a perfect venue for special occasions like weddings and celebrating birthdays/ weddings. The lemon tart was especially nice. All oir other food we order was delicious including the complimentary bread. Staff very attentive.

Great place to spend time catching up with friends. Clean, tastefully decorated and good space, so no feeling of not being abke to hold conversations across a table for fear of annoying others. Food was great, without exception; and all the staff were very welcoming and engaging; without being overbearing. Cannot recommend it highly enough. Thanks for helping make a lovely evening a visit to truly remember and talk about.

Had a meal with my fiancée. Great food and service, high quality in a lovely setting and reasonable for a la carte. Well timed service with a smile!

Delicious meal. Lovely staff who made us feel welcome, especially the dog. Although an event was going on in the marquee, the service was very good. I shall certainly be returning soon.

On arrival, the barmaid was talking to a local (for a long time) whilst preparing a drink and we were not acknowledged. One more person arrived and she eventually asked us who was next....! When our friends arrived I ordered their drinks but the same barmaid advised it was table service, I said I'd rather order them now but was advised to go to my table. No-one came to take our drinks order - I had to ask and after pouring 1 of 3 drinks, it just sat on a tray at the bar until I asked again for our drinks. It wasn't even busy at this point, waiter/waitress waving at each other/leaning on the bar and there was a huge amount of used glasses on the bar. I realise they had been busy up to this point but throughout the meal I had to chase for missing drinks. Food was good (burgers and Sunday lunch) but the bar service needs sorting out - the older barmaid had no clue who was next and one gentleman was ignored several times.

Brilliant service Brilliant staff Good menu which presented to a very high service Good atmosphere Lovely outside seating area

We visited with my partners 92 year old Mum for a lunch date. I booked ahead using their website a requested a table that would accommodate her wheelchair which they did. Very friendly service from everyone and attentive when we had our food. The food was amazing, my partner and I both had the ciabattas, his with chicken and bacon and mine fishfingers and his Mum had the scampi. Absolutely delicious, plentiful portions and nice and hot. Go for the thick cut chips too! It was our first visit and we will be back, probably to try their Sunday lunch. One waitress made my partners day as she commented on how amazing she looked for being 92 so Thankyou. I would advise booking as there were a lot of people coming in who hadn’t booked and either were recommended elsewhere or could book them later in the day and that was quite early into service as we arrived at 12:30. A lovely midweek treat and will definitely be returning. Thankyou

We came for my Mum’s birthday lunch and 3 of us ordered the roast lamb which was delicious. Our waitress was delightful and cheerfully helped us with various dietary requirements (some gf and vegan). Thanks very much - we’ll be back when next in the area.

Absolutely fabulous. This is a lovely pub with first class food and excellent service. The staff could not have been nicer. Delicious Sunday roast.

Had a lovely evening having drinks,young blonde boy on bar was very friendly and helpful and all staff were lovely ,enjoyed our evening thoroughly :).

My go to pub for Mother’s Day lunch. Excellent service, food delicious. Very accommodating as we had come together from far and wide and we were able to sit comfortably after the meal to carry on talking.

I booked a table, for my wife and myself, for a mother's day lunch. The staff are very friendly and welcoming and we were shown to our table. There is a lovely atmosphere in this very old building and it is clean and well presented. My wife had the beef and I had the roast lamb with accompanying vegetables and they were both excellent. The chef certainly knows how to cook Yorkshire Puddings properly, too ! The portions were generous, too. Staff were attentive and it was service with a smile all round. Thank you for a great visit.

Very nice traditional country pub in a beautiful old building. The menu had a great selection and lots of options for gluten free dining, which was great for me being one of “those people”😅 The staff were very welcoming and the food was great, unpretentious and very tasty. Will be back, thanks!

Lovely Mother’s day meal been twice now on mother’s day exceptionally good . Food lovely staff very pleasant and helpful lovely atmosphere

We had a beautiful meal last night, it was very reasonable too. The staff were lovely and very friendly. Would highly recommend.

Wonderful pub/restaurant. It felt very welcoming. Nice decor. Staff very pleasant. Food was just okay. Three of us had fruit crumble for dessert, which was stodgy with very little fruit.

The Black Horse is our favourite local haunt, but we were yet to try a Roast. I'm quite fussy with a roast as my husband is an ex chef and after years of careful nagging, he's perfected everything just to how I like it. But after sampling the A La Carte menu we couldn't wait to try a Roast here and boy we were not disappointed. Service was faultless as always - friendly and efficient. They kindly seated us in the bar area with our puppy and despite him barking a few times and me feeling a bit anxious, they put us right at ease. The food was just incredible. Everything was cooked to perfection - meat was really flavoursome and (much as I hate the word) moist, and portions were plentiful. The veg was all cooked beautifully and seasoned well. I absolutely LOVED the gravy which NEVER happens to me when I eat out. I thought prices were reasonable, quality was outstanding. I dare say we will rarely eat elsewhere now.

Highly Recommended: We booked a table for 6pm using the web page. Very simple and I got a confirmation message to know it was all done right. Arrived a little early and chatted to the the people at the bar, all very friendly. Our friend arrived and we were taken through to our table. We were asked for drinks, and given the menu's. A short time later the orders were taken and the meals took 15-20 minutes. We ordered Hake, chicken supreme, battered king prawns and beef suet pudding. All of the food was lovely, very tasty and fresh. For desert it was apple & plumb crumble and Jam sponge, again very nice. The plus was the food, staff and atmosphere were great. The prices aren't cheap, but it is great value. The only negative was that the hake was small but fortunately, the jam sponge filled up the gap. We will definitely return for special occasions, or if we are flush. ££ Keep up the great work.

I came with my family for my son’s birthday. The food was so tasty, couldn’t fault it. I visit all the time, normally for a Sunday Roast which is equally as good. I’ve never had a bad meal yet so hands off to the chef 10/10. The staff are always pleasant and helpful too which makes the experience more enjoyable, I’ve booked again for my Dads birthday on Easter Sunday.

The Black Horse is a really friendly pub/ restaurant. The food is fantastic, the service is brilliant & the staff are so friendly & fun. We went with family for a belated Birthday dinner for my husband. As ever, it was fun & we all came away feeling full & having had a great time

Visited The Black Horse with my wife for dinner. The pub has a warm and welcoming atmosphere, the service from the staff was excellent and the food was delicious. Highly recommend this pub and will definitely visit again soon.

We went for Sunday lunch, which was great, lots of veg, lovely Yorkshire pudding and plenty of gravy. Staff attentive and friendly. It’s wheelchair accessible and had a loo. Well done.

Booked lunchtime table for our Edding Aniversary Excellent greeting from staff who showed us to our table. We both chose beef for our meal. The food and service was the best we’ve had for a long time. Excellent! Followed main course with Sticky Toffee Pudding - wonderful. We will definitely return. Mike & Judy Williams

Wonderful steak in an authentic country pub. Cosy, warm atmosphere with friendly and attentive staff. Highly recommended

Superb service and terrific food. Still not sure why the amazing pub classics stop at 6 when they are so brilliant, but other than that superb.

Really great service, amazing food and all round just a really good night out. Our waitress (didn’t get her name) was fabulous.

Lovely Sunday lunch, 😋very clean place with very nice friendly staff. A little pricey, but you get what you pay for, well worth the extra money. Definitely visit again if we're in the area

This is a very good gastropub with a well balanced menu that includes meat, fish and vegetarian options. The wine list is extensive and fairly priced. The service is excellent and friendly.

Enjoyed Sunday Roast this afternoon, at black horse Elton which was delicious, well presented, generous portions & excellent service from all the staff, nothing was too much trouble, very efficient, lovely atmosphere deserts exquisite, will definitely revisit & recommend.

We were a group of 20 and were looked after extremely well. From booking, through pre-order to the night itself everything was very smooth. Great food, drink and service.

Great service and lovely food. Nice beer selection on tap. Food menu was well balanced, not over fussy and used good local produce. Exactly what you want from an English pub👍

We met an old friend here for lunch and enjoyed the meal, service and atmosphere of The Black Horse. The staff were very friendly, knowledgeable and paid attention to all requests. Highly recommend.

Great food and staff , had a nice experience and the food was to die for , you can have a laugh with the waiters and they are always asking if you are ok and if you need anything .

My partner and I took my parents here for her a Sunday lunch as a treat for mums birthday, we had never been before but had been recommended it by a few others. Easily the best pub Sunday lunch I’ve ever eaten, the quality of the food was faultless as was the generous portion size even the prices were very reasonable especially compared to other venues we had visited, but this place exceeded them all. All topped off by a very enjoyable environment, nice decor and charming village location, and the staff were polite and diligent. Can’t wait to return. Rating: 10/10

Lovely, cozy pub! We stopped half way through our cycle for a bite to eat and a drink and was the perfect destination!

Three of us came out for dinner, have to say our food was fantastic, everyone of us said it was the best meal we’ve had for a long time. Try the suet pudding, it was amazing!

Amazing Sunday roast 😃 The Black horse in Elton never fails, whether I’m at lunch with friends or dinner with family or roast on a Sunday as I don’t want to cook! Definitely recommend & will come again, thank you!

Loverly setting, warm and welcoming staff offering great service, topped excellent food. Dog friendly too

Met family here as half way between our homes and will certainly visit again. Friendly service and good food. Desserts in particular were much appreciated as steamed puddings were so light. My pot pie was very tasty as was the ham with eggs and chips....
