We had a night in tring and decided to pop to the black horse for an afternoon drink. The staff and regulars made us feel very welcome and invited us back in the evening as there was a dj on that night (rich….fantastic!!!). We decided to head back there for a few late night drinks before returning to our Airbnb, and had the best night!! Locals are so warm and welcoming,bar staff amazing and such a great night with great tunes and great vibe. Highly recommend if you’re looking for a few drinks in a friendly,welcoming pub. Shout out to all the staff and regulars 👍👍

The exterior of this restaurant presents a facade of care and attention. The welcoming sign at the entrance is a promise unfulfilled once you step inside. The ambiance swiftly shifts to that of a local off-license with a well lit roomy interior, startlingly unwelcoming. Regular patrons seem shocked new faces which does little to alleviate the discomfort. The decor is starting to show as shadow of its former glory, clearly suffering from cost-cutting and neglect but it can be easily resolved. It’s a telling sign of a gastro pub that once was and could be again. The service is excellent. The 'Black Horse Burger' is a culinary misadventure – it tasted as if it's been fried in the same old oil as the chips. The burger meat was chewy and grisly, a clear indication of cost-cutting. My advice to the management: Drop the title of gastro pub it is misleading. Focus on being a good pub you have great parking and i would return for a live show. With quality bar snacks, and invest in revitalizing the decor. This establishment has potential, but it's currently lost being something it is not.

Passing by on a canal boat holiday. Parked to the north by Tring bridge and walked down. This was the first pub we came to and decided to try it. Lovely interior, clean and comfortable. Dogs are welcome inside and out. Plenty of outdoor spacing with a fair amount of undercover seating. Came across as a adult evening venue - very nice. The food was excellent, we had roasts across the group. Food served quickly with large portions and fairly priced. I'd certainly go back again, the staff were all very friendly and provided a great service.

This is a reasonably nice pub just off the high street. The general decor is nice, but the furniture is quite tired and tatty, so not that Inviting. Also only had two beers available, Side Pocket and one other, the rest were lagers. Very limited parking, but the public car park next door is free for 1 hour.

It was a lovely sunny Sunday and we had been to the Tring natural history museum (highly recommend) this pub is only a 10 mins walk and feels very local. The food was excellent (Sunday roasts) everything felt homemade and freshly cooked (but just heated up) and was the perfect size. The potatoes are definitely the star of the show! The kids roast was on the large size for a 6 year old (not a complaint just an fyi) with good meat quality and just as tasty as the adults. Good beer options including local Tring beer, softdrinks and ciders. Outside they have a good 10 or so large picnic tables and lots of space to run around. Prices are very reasonable, staff very friendly and would definitely recommend.

My partner and I had Sunday lunch here, I ordered a beef and chicken roast with stuffing. Let me tell you without a shadow of a doubt, this is the best roast dinner I have had in a restaurant, ever. The meats were succulent and moist, the vegetables clearly freshly prepared and cooked to incredible standard, a generous serving of gravy, crisp but light Yorkshire puddings.. The list goes on. The chicken and bacon salad was also generously portioned and delicious according to Lucy. Great price. Great service. Great pub. I hope to visit again. ✌🏼

The beer was good and well handled The burgher was delicious, although there 1s quite a good range of meals on the menu

Delicious food!!! We were driving through UK, stopped at Tring looking for various nearly closing places to eat around 2pm. I found The Black Horse on google and phoned up and they said they were open. What a great surprise! Just off the main street, with a parking next to it. Very clean and cosy. They were very nice to us and served us a piping-hot incredible meal. My choice was a chicken and mushroom pie and it came with mash, carrots and broccoli on the side, and gravy. It was really good. One of our daughters is vegetarian and there were plenty of options for her too (in eg. Quorn). It was just what we needed!

Spent an enjoyable few hours here with Lunch and drinks. The menu seems to be a bit limited at the weekend, but the food when it arrived (after a long wait) was nicely presented and tasty. Reasonable prices too. When we were there the bar was quite busy with locals watching the football match, so it got a bit noisy at times. The lady who took our order was friendly as were the other staff. The pub is located quite close to the centre of Tring with a large car park adjacent. The Black Horse didn't disappoint but wouldn't be our first choice if we ever find ourselves in Tring again.
