Really sorry to say this, but the portion of chips that came with my meal was awkwardly small… I wish I took a photo, but it was a single layer of chips may be a tots of like 10 pieces ?! It literally looked awkward on the plate…. I expected more for a £12 dish…

Sunday roast is really great.... If only you are on time to get it..... Each other Sunday either it's not served or its only chicken left.... 2 pints of San Miguel were 7.20 at 13.55 and turned into £8.00 at 15.26???????

In 1986-87, I was a student exchange from the US attending the University of Exeter. Most Fridays my British friends and I would make the long walk from Lopez Hall down Pennsylvania Ave to "the Blackie" to enjoy a great night. The people at the pub were always nice to we students, despite our youthful noise. I have such fond memories of good times there with Hywel Davies, Lucy White, Andy Bev, Fiona, and the rest of of the gang. I remember that a pint was 90 p back then. Also met a few Royal Marines there, and even met the officer who was paired with Prince Edward when the later left training. Over several pints, he told me what really happened, which I won't share here. I went on to serve in the US Marine Corps for 26 years. During that time, I worked with the British military often, and found that British soldiers were always our best and closest allies...people that you could count on always. In any case, those were fine times, made greater with the passage of time, as I'm no longer a youthful college kid, but a man of 60 years.

Ideally located near the big John Lewis, it's a great place to drop in for a quick bite and a pint. They show all sports, and they are more than happy to put on most televised sporting events. There's a pool table, digital darts and a beer garden too. Beer and food very reasonably priced in my opinion

Last evening I ordered a flat-iron steak from the menu (as I had done on several previous occasions and which I had been very pleased with). What was served to me last night was not a flat-iron steak (i.e. a single steak), it was beef cut up into bite size pieces, looking like food more suited to a child or geriatric. The waiter explained they had been instructed (by head office - ?) to now serve steaks cut up. I can't imagine any steak eater wanting for his/her steak to be served in cut-up pieces. I felt completely deceived, deprived of an enjoyable eating experience and hugely let down. I did not eat the meat. Had I known the steak would be served in cut-up pieces, I never would have ordered it. The waiter was gracious and offered a free drink for my husband and myself. I asked for the cost of my meal to be refunded. He refunded our entire bill. While this was a generous gesture, I will never go to The Black Horse, Longbrook Street, Exeter again after last night's experience. My first choice of meal last night was the fish and chips but these were not available. This was the second experience I'd had of them not being available at The Black Horse. How does this happen for such a classic pub dish? They were showing on the menu as available, and there was no indication (e.g. on a blackboard) anywhere that fish and chips were not available last night. My husband and I went for the meal around 6 pm - I don't understand why fish and chips would not be available so early in the evening. I would not recommend The Black Horse, Longbrook Street, Exeter to anyone wanting to have a good eating experience.

Standard City pub with big screens. Main selling point was that it's not full on Friday evening. 200 yards from City centre, so too far out for typical revellers to walk during a night on the booze!

Trying to visit different real ale pubs in Exeter and found this one. It's a sports bar, not our favourite, but the choice of ales was good even though they weren't really to my liking. Settled on the Yardbird in the end which was ok. Good service from the enthusiastic bar staff though. Its a vast pub and although we didn't have food the fare coming out looked really good and was very reasonably priced. Well patronised and obviously a popular pub....

We stopped in for a quick bite to eat on a midweek lunchtime, the pub was fairly quiet so lots of tables to choose from, it's a proper city pub with sports screens and a garden area, there's a good lunch menu, I had the chicken and bacon sandwich which was huge and tasty and hubby had a bacon and cheese burger with fries, both meals were good and served pretty quick, a great place for lunch

This is one of my favourite pubs in Exeter, second only to the one I work in. The pub itself has the feel of a old village pub, but with all the modern facilities you’d expect in a big city. I come here on account of the friendly staff and welcoming atmosphere. I have also eaten here multiple times and it’s always been top notch. If you’re looking for a bite to eat or just a pint after a long day this place has you sorted. The prices are very competitive for a city pub just off the Main Street. With a courtyard beer garden, a pool table and darts available everyday and their very popular pub quiz every Thursday it’s great for family’s or large groups, and also accommodating for people just looking for a quiet pint. Highly recommended

Stopped in for Sunday lunch as we were walking past the pub looked historical from the outside and well looked after we both liked the look so thought we’d check out the menu The lovely smell’s coming from the kitchen sold us The pub was clean and the service at the bar was quick and efficient we ordered our roasts at the same time as our drinks one beef one chicken a pint and a wine Both roasts were great the beef was cooked perfectly and the chicken was lovely and moist Seasonal veg all cooked perfectly Only downside was not enough gravy for my taste Next time we’ll order some more But a great stop just off the main high street

This pub is so nice. So clean and tidy. Made to feel welcome as soon as a member of staff see's you walking theoughtbthe door. It's like a tardis, goes on and on. The first game of pool is FREE and already to go, which is a massive bonus.🎱 They also have darts, which I believe are electronic they look awesome but did not stay long enough to play, next time for sure . The beer garden is a right sun trap. Perfect for any sports fan as there are tvs outside, too! 😀 🎾 📺 even have some shelter. Definitely recommend this pub, it's a diamond of a place.

Great little boozer, too much football for my taste, but otherwise fantastic place. Shame they refuse to comply with tradition of turning 'out' lines tags around so customers can tell what is and isn't available, but I suppose that's what happens when people who don't understand the pub trade are put in charge of running pubs.

The manager and the team at the Black Horse were so amazing (as always) when we visited to watch the England World Cup game on December 10th. It was absolutely packed, but the staff were always efficient and had a smile on there faces when they were serving, or running around to collect glasses! I would absolutely recommend everyone to go here for a pint and some yummy grub! Also, it was an amazing place to go and watch the football, even though the result was disappointing!

Great pub. Cosy with a good atmosphere. Has a dart board, pool table, and outdoors area. Plus, drink prices are reasonable. Staff has always been nice and service is good. Food is decent too although I am yet to try many of the options. I would avoid when sporting events are on as the pub can get easily crowded. Sometimes music is on far too loudly though, which becomes really bothersome. Great spot for a sunday roast and to chill with some mates.

It's a Greene King pub, but all the staff here are fantastic with a good sense of humour. Quick kitchen service, and they're quick to fix any issues. Standard selection of Greene King choices on draught, but also some great, local guest ales. Quiz night on Thursdays - it's one through an app on the phone. Always busy, and a good, friendly competitive atmosphere. It's £1 per person cash entry only though - but the bar does cashback. You can watch all the sports games there - and on Sunday night there's even a poker game. One pool table, so definitely a queue for that in the evenings and on weekends.

If this place could man their bar in a way that you didn't have to wait for half an hour for a drink on a busy Saturday night then I'd rate it higher than 3/5. A good place to watch sport for sure and food decent enough......just buy the equivalent of 3 or 4 rounds when you do get served because you'll be sober again by the time you get another drink!
