Me and my wife stayed overnight in one of the chalets and had Sunday dinner there. We found it to be a lovely little quiet place to stay and found all the staff really kind and attentive. The food was good and as for the service charge I see some people complain about I would suggest a McDonald’s in the future as nearly all places add a service charge nowadays which is always optional and I never have issue with tipping staff that worked hard for it. Would definitely go again.

Outstanding!! From beginning to end . A warm welcome from an attentive gentleman . The food was served promptly despite every table being occupied . I was given a birthday card at the beginning of the meal which was lovely . The food was amazing . I recommend the Salmon starter - Devine . Both myself and my husband thoroughly injured all the food and our time here . The berrymocktail was delicious and beautiful and cost less than £4! All the waitresses was attentive and lovely !! Definitely returning and highly recommend . Oh and I was surprised with a happy birthday slate !!

Really disappointed. Went with friends for a birthday celebration, had to queue 10 minutes to get seated. Waitress who took our drinks order had no knowledge of low alcohol drinks said she wasn’t old enough to drink so didn’t know. Four of us had lamb which was difficult to cut and chew. Have been before and really liked it but this was not a good experience

Such a shame about the service charge, surely it should be up to the customer to decide wether to give a tip. When questioned the waitress said, and I quote: Well the closer you are to London it is the norm.... I reminded her that London is over 48 miles away, over an hour's drive and this is Bedfordshire!! I run a successful business myself and used to speak highly of this place but now they have lost me as a customer and I won't be recommending to my clients! I can see that I am not the only one complaining about the service charge either, sorry but you are not an upmarket London business like the staff thinks they are. So so disappointing but he ho, enjoy the service charge, you will be losing out on customers 🤷🏻♀️

We have been here many times. The food is excellent the staff are knowledgeable about the menu, helpful and happy. The only thing that stops this being five stars is that you order drinks and coffees and they wait on the counter while staff walk by. We waited fifteen minutes for our first drinks that we could see on the counter. If they put the table number of the tray then any one of the staff could deliver it. I got up to collect them myself only to be told by a waiter that they would bring them to the table. I thought that meant now as we were standing next to them but no she headed off to another part of the restaurant. We probably would have ordered another drink with the meal but as the drinks took so long we didn’t need to. Lastly I prefer the crispy roast potatoes they used to serve the soft ones served now are tasty but who doesn’t like a crispy, fluffy roast potato? Perhaps that’s just me. Having said all this the hot fruit soufflé is amazing and we will be back.

This is our second stay here. 2 rooms, located to the side of the pub. Not sure if the rooms are identical as have stayed in 2, on both occasions. Fabulous bed. Modern bathroom Both exceptionally clean. Good amount of hanging space. Great facilities on offer, including air conditioning…. It was so needed when we visited. Breakfast is a continental style, already present in your room. Yoghurt, fruit, juice, fresh milk, cereals, croissants, butter, jam & cakes. A great sized fridge… big enough for an additional bottle of something if wanted. Coffee machine (although I can never figure it out, even with instructions 🤣) & multiple varieties of tea & coffee to choose from. We had a meal on one evening, the food never disappoints. The staff are welcoming & warm. Shout out to the housekeeper, what a lovely lady she is & what a great job she does. Definitely recommend

We've been coming to the Black Horse for very many years and we've never been let down by the quality of the food or the overall experience. Elevated gastro pub food done really well without too much frippery but focussed on really great taste and presentation. I always really enjoy what I have no matter what I order but honestly most times I tend to go for their legendary fish and chips! Staff are always very welcoming and friendly and very attentive. We really enjoy our experiences here and will continue to come for many years!

Our favourite restaurant by far! The setting is beautiful and the food and service are faultless, every time. We moved to the area just over 2 years ago and have eaten here probably 20 times or more. We have tried other highly recommended restaurants but none beat The Black Horse, hence why we return here time after time. Very few restaurants manage to maintain this consistency of quality. Bravo!

We visited for our mums 90th birthday lunch and the visit was lovely from beginning to end. The staff couldn’t be more attentive and helpful. The food was delicious , good choices, well cooked, and very good portion sizes, including child portions for those with smaller appetites. The atmosphere was lovely, the other customers friendly too. The flowers and garden well maintained which added to atmosphere. Thank you to all the staff who made our mums lunch so special. If you are looking for a lovely restaurant for any special occasion , good tasting food and great customer service, I would definitely recommend.

Amazing food, lovely location. We felt the pricing was reasonable for the quality of food. The only thing letting our experience down was the serving staff. Not very attentive would be my overall summary. We waited 20 minutes after receiving drinks before someone took a food order, or engaged with us. In this time one member of staff commented to another that we must be desperate to order, whilst not taking our order or engaging with us. We waited another 5 minutes before someone took our order. The food was amazing, really fresh and well cooked. Portion sizes where very large. Overall a fantastic, local, restaurant. Hopefully our experience with the serving team is a one off.

Used as a base for a few days whikst in the areea. There are just two rooms outside the main restuarant. Rooms were comfortable and very well equiped with all you need and good value for the money at £94 Breakfast was basic continental but thus the price with juice, coffee machine, cereal yogurt, crossiant and muffin. Bed was comfortable and skylight if you wake early and a few spiders web hung from the ceiling The restuarant is their main focus as welcome was luke warm as we arrived later around 7:30pm We never ate here but food looked good and it was very busy. I would certainly give it a thums up though.

Overall really disappointed. Booked for Saturday lunch for my family at 1.45pm. I called in advance to let them know we would be running 10 mins late (I have a 6 month daughter who needed to be put down for a nap before we entered) I didn’t want her crying through the restaurant and to bother other people while they were eating. When we got there, my family were told at the door they would have to order within the next few minutes as the kitchen closed at 2pm. It says nothing on the website, or the confirmation of booking that the restaurant or kitchen closes at 2pm. In actual fact, it says on their website that lunch is served until 2.15pm so we really would have had time to browse the menu and order calmly! However, the compere and kitchen manager (Matthew) didn’t seem to be patient, he wasn’t initially empathetic and ultimately rushed my parents, to the point they felt they wanted to go elsewhere. Really disappointed as this is our local, we are new to this area, we were so excited to try out. I would recommend that the restaurant states clearly on their website & on the booking system that their kitchen closes at 2pm. Also to add this as a note on the automated booking confirmation email. I’m adamant to visit this place again, in hope that the food and most importantly the welcome at the door is better!!

Good quality food, though could have done with a bit more. Service was very good. However thought that the meal was on the expensive side. Also, didn't like the fact that the tip is already included on the bill. Yes could have asked to reduce the amount, but that would be an embarrassment to both myself and the waitress.

We stayed at The Black Horse in one of the chalets whilst visiting family. We arrived in the evening and received a very warm welcome from all the front of house staff. The chalet was small but had everything we needed. Very clean, modern & comfortable. Lovely little touches such as remote control for the skylight blind. The included breakfast was continental & left in the chalet for us both mornings. An amazing aray of pastries & muffins, fresh fruit & cereals. Best choice of hot drinks that we have ever come across, range of teabags, coffee & hot chocolate. The bed was extremely comfortable & with underfloor floor heating, a heated towel rail in the bathroom & a remote controlled air conditioning/heating unit we were very cosy & warm. Two very good night's sleep! We booked a table in the restaurant for our arrival on the first night. The staff were very friendly & professional and we received first class treatment from everyone. We had three courses & each course was absolutely delicious. The restaurant was very busy but the attention from staff was spot on & the ambiance was perfect. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay & eating experience here & would definitely recommend. Thank you to the owners & all staff at the Black Horse. We will return!

A lovely public house located in the countryside. I stayed here overnight for business and was pleasantly surprised. The restaurant was full and I was lucky to get a table as I had not booked. The food was fantastic and the service was perfect, not over the top checking if you were ok, just the right amount. The car park is vast and set back from the accommodation at the back of the building. The accommodation is quaint from the outside and full of creature comforts when inside. Immaculately clean and all aspects of the perfect stay covered. A continental breakfast is provided and I had enough food to take with me on my onward journey to have for lunch. I would definitely recommend this pub and it's accommodation.

We visited for a joint Mother’s Day and Wedding Anniversary dinner. As expected, it was a set menu but there was still plenty of choice and the quality was amazing. Being a busy time, we thought we may get rushed through as has happened at other places in previous years but we had nothing of the sort. Whilst the staff were attentive, they gave us plenty of time a space to enjoy our evening and the great food. We were allegedly sitting on “the best table” and have to say, it was excellent. Roast beef cooked to perfection (if like me, you like it pink) and the pudding was amazing

Although I have been an occasional restaurant customer, that's my five star assessment (and yes you can also just pop in for a drink) I was unfortunate to have had an electrical problem with my car as I was passing, I live locally. I decided that parking up in the Black Horse was a good idea, the car had already come to a stop a couple of times. My intention was to evaluate the problem, and decide what to do. With the thought that I may have to abandon the car in the car park, I briefly told the staff my problem, and was immediately offered a pint "on us". I logged on to their WiFi (there is absolutely no phone reception) did my stuff and left half an hour later, much happier and warmed by the consideration of the staff. Use the Black Horse if you can, it's worth it.

Superb!! We visited with family to celebrate a big birthday and a silver wedding anniversary. We arrived and were seated promptly, where we found birthday and anniversary cards waiting for us on the table, which was a nice touch. All the staff were polite and knowledgeable with regards to the menu and were able to answer any questions relating to it. We all chose the roast, the food was outstanding, fresh, piping hot and the presentation was lovely. Everyone cleared their plates! We then ordered desserts and again, we couldn’t fault anything we ordered. We finished up with coffees all round, and everyone on our table complimented the coffees, they were piping hot, smooth and creamy. Sometimes the coffees at restaurants can be bitter and lukewarm, I’d go again just for the coffee tbh!! It was a very busy service and despite this, the staff remained efficient, unflustered and helpful throughout. It’s clear that the standard of service is not compromised and all staff could work well under pressure. Even when a group of customers arrived but hadn’t booked, the member of staff who spoke to them was so informative, polite, and although apologised explaining that they didn’t have space for them on this occasion as they hadn’t booked, he took the time to chat with them and recommended other local places that they could try for a ‘walk in’ meal. So much more personal, than a, “sorry we’re full, you need to book” response! I would highly recommend a visit to this lovely restaurant, but would suggest you book if it’s at the weekend. Well done to all the service staff, chefs, bar staff, managers etc etc, this was 10/10 from the moment we arrived until the moment we left! It’s so refreshing to visit somewhere that genuinely cares about the customer experience! Thank you for helping to end our special celebratory weekend on such a high and positive experience!

Crab Tian was lovely and my friend has whipped goats cheese tart which she said was really good. Roast lamb was great, large portion with good vegetables and my friend had the nut roast which they enjoyed. Nice orange creme brulee and we both had an after dinner drink.

I visited The Black Horse with my son, his partner and his two children last Sunday the 28th January to celebrate the birth of their second son - we were all really looking forward to having dinner out and the experience was awful. My son’s roast lamb was completely inedible, he could not cut it and the cut of meat looked awful, after complaining he decided to ask for what his partner and I had, the chicken supreme as he was starving by then. The chicken meals were not amazing either, my husband and my son could have cooked it better! After some time somebody did come to my son to apologise and mentioned that a couple of customers had complained that the cuts of lamb were poor,no refund was offered. After looking at other reviews it appears that it isn’t unusual for the lamb to be poor and inedible and I advise prospective customers to avoid it as the problem does not seem to be being addressed. Obviously we will not be returning.

Excellent service, great front of house engaging in conversation and in lovely relaxing surroundings. Now for the food. A great menu selection of specials and a la carte. It was absolutely delicious. Perfect. Really tasty and quality produce cooked to perfection, and served by the lovely friendly and efficient staff. A special touch was an anniversary card on the table from the team and a sweet selection with a happy anniversary message.

visited with family we hadnt seen in a while and it was one of the best meals i've had in a while. Service was amazing and the food even better. I very rarely have 3 course but I couldnt resist today and all were amazing.

My wife is allergic to gluten and for once in her culinary experience she was spoilt for choice. The fish and chips were probably the best we have ever had. Nice vibe. Busy on a Wednesday lunchtime which speaks volumes and had to book.

Food was average for all of us. The trimmings weren’t fresh for the roast. The nut roast in particular was probably the worst I ever had unfortunately… The Yorkshire pudding was too eggy Expensive for what it is. Was ok to try the place but wouldn’t return.

I enjoyed a lovely evening meal at The Black Horse tonight with some family members. From the moment, we entered the restaurant we were immediately greeted by the pleasant and attentive staff at the restaurant. I can’t really describe what the specifics of the experience were, but I am immediately felt welcome and at ease. The restaurant had a steady flow of customers, but that did not prevent the staff from giving us the suitable level of attention, ensuring a prompt and personal service. This carried on throughout the duration of our visit, and I cannot fault any of the staff. In terms of the food, I personally had the Marinated Heirloom Tomatoes for starters, the Local Rump Of Lamb for main and finished with a Chocolate Ganache. I really enjoyed all three courses, the portion size was good and the quality was excellent. I was particularly impressed with the lamb, cooked to perfection! Would very much recommend and we will be visiting again!

If you want to spoil yourself this is the place to go. Menu covers most budgets but if you're in spoil yourself mode expect to pay around £60 per person. But trust me you won't be disappointed with the food or service. Especially like the special touches like anniversary / birthday card and a little special treat at the end. Its the attention to those little things that keep us going back again and again and again

Very friendly and helpful staff! Stayed in one of the chalets which was pretty and quaint, gets very warm in there though! Easy to find the place and although we don’t eat there the food looked great!

Only place in Bedfordshire worth going to watch live sport. I live in Bedford and travel over every weekend to watch the football in the engine - that's how good it is.

Great place that we just happened to stumble across. Polite staff, good selection of food, topped off by cozy decor. The croissants were amazing!

Sadly shut forever unless someone comes up with extortionate price Fullers want. Could be such a great destination pub with right chef

A very welcoming experience thanks to the excellent heritage centre guides who knew their stuff and pointed us in the right direction. The Centre is a must visit not just for aged train spotters but for every one. The line has a new future with East West Rail which needs all our support to get locals back on trains. Great coffee and cake made the day.
