The Black Horse Inn in West Lindsey

As soon as we walked through the door we were made to feel welcome, the atmosphere was warm and friendly, the food was amazing and the prices were more than reasonable.

We visited this pub for a family funeral - stayed for two nights and ate breakfasts funeral buffet and evening meals … including Sunday roast - the food was wonderful and service good … staff were charming, friendly and attentive. Quality of food served was wonderful and prices were extremely good value! Congratulations to all the staff for a wonderful job done ✔️ Chef Ben needs a personal mention … keep up the great work - thank you to everyone at Black horse inn

Friendly staff and good pub grub

Cosy environment, friendly staff, delicious food and drinks, good vegan menu.

Went to the Thursday Steak night last night and it was delicious. Would highly recommend, really good food and great value at two for £22. Staff made us feel really welcome. Five star!

If you want nice homemade food. This is definitely the place for you. Food's always served fresh and plenty of different beers to try.

We have just spent a weekend at the Black Horse. We had wanted a rural, village pub that was friendly and relaxed with good food and comfortable accommodation. We weren't disappointed! As residents, we were able to enjoy breakfast, lunch and dinner over a few days and cannot compliment the front of house and kitchen teams enough, starting with the friendly welcome from Sue. The food was gorgeous and I can only say that the portion sizes beat me a few times..lol. Excellent value for money. The accommodation was very clean, spacious and comfortable.

Me and my wife fancied trying somewhere new for some Pub grub so we decided to try here. The food was very nice especially the Steak Pie and home made chips. We were served at our table by a young lady called Migen and she was lovely and gave us great service. My only negative was when we were paying the bill. We went to the bar and was attended to by I assume the manager who had very short hair and she was been quite horrible to the girl who served us at our table Migen. I said that she gave us lovely service and we Thanked Migen but it didn't make any difference and the lasy behind the bar continued to be quite horrible to the young girl and I found it very unprofessional especially Infront of customers. I felt quite bad for Migen as she looked very young and I'm sure she was trying her best. Nonetheless, it was overall a good experience.

Excellent Sunday roast. Great value for money. Friendly staff. I'd say no need to order a starter if you go for the roast, unless really hungry. Will be back again

Lovely pub and they have a separate gluten free menu! First place I’ve been since gf diagnosis where they have gf alternatives instead of just taking it off your plate! GF Yorkshire on a roast was the highlight 😋 lovely chatty staff and enjoyed the meal, we will definitely be back to explore the rest of the menu 😋

A lovely, cosy pub with friendly and welcoming staff. We really enjoyed the Sunday roast and gluten free options, well priced and good portions. Nice to see well behaved dogs are allowed too. Will definitely be back for one of the weeknight specials. The staff are great. Highly recommended.

Nice place for a good meal for my boyfriends birthday

Fabulous lunch time menu Great food

Lovely friendly place to have a meet up with friends. Great staff who can't do enough for you. Try the chip buties. Made with proper chips. You forget how great they are. Thank you Black Horse.

I won the steak for 2 competition, through Facebook. And oh my word, the food did not disappoint! It was fantastic, steak cooked exactly how I asked, lovely Stilton sauce, beer battered onion rings 👌🏼 I will definitely return for more food!

We went for the new Steak Night yesterday Food was delicious Excellent prices and the place has a lovely ambience Very friendly and welcoming Will be making it a regular steak Tuesday !!

Well what can say. We stayed here on their steak night and it was absolutely amazing, every last bite. I would highly recommend it!

Went for the steak night tonight absolutely amazing quality food cooked to perfection, highly recommend, lovely friendly pub and staff

We didn't stay here but had food in the pub twice whilst we stayed in glentham at a caravan site. Everything we had was gorgeous proper home cooked food, dog friendly, fast service, nothing is scrimped on everything we had we cleared the plate! We're only about an hour away from our home and will definately come back.

Staff very pleasant, enjoyed my meal

Wednesday lunch was at the Black Horse, Blyton. Their “Lunch Club” menu is incredibly good value at £9.45 for a main course, £11.45 for 2 courses, and £12.95 for 3 courses. There were four of us and we chose liver and onions served with a Yorkshire pudding, mashed potatoes and 4 vegetables, roast turkey dinner with all the trimmings, and ham and egg, served with chips and peas. Everyone enjoyed their lunch, and we had 4 empty plates to prove it! The staff are warm and friendly, and very efficient - orders are quickly taken and the food soon follows. Lunchtimes are very busy and it’s better to book if you can.

Four of us had a lunchtime menu with drinks. Unfortunately, aside from the pleasant friendly staff, 3 of our meals were disappointing. My lasagne was tasteless, my husband’s Xmas pie was very unchristmassy and so small and our friend’s roast had no roast potatoes- just mash. The fourth diner enjoyed his curry but they served him rice after he asked for chips. However, they amended the mistake by bringing chips too! The last few meals we’ve had there have been disappointing yet they used to be so good. Real shame.

My meal , which arrived surprisingly quickly , , was plentiful and tasty. It was warm rather than hot but the real issue was the gloopy gravy. Like wallpaper paste and not at all pleasant. Shame.

Very nice food, excellent service!

It is a really lovely pub, food and very helpful staff/service.

Lunch was very good, service good. Good choice of pub food.

Incredible! A jolly welcome from The bar staff, serving piping hot meals. Came with the grandkids and they are fussy ! Took advantage of their £2 kids meal offer ! Such good portions ! They ate it all up without complaint so it’s a YES from us !! Will tell our friends and definitely return

I went earlier during the year and loved it so much I had to come back and try something else, honestly 10/10, we had a pub grill cooked to perfection, lasagna with a side of garlic bread that was lovely and the hunters chicken which was so flavoursome. So glad I came back, staff were great and so friendly, food was fantastic. I would reccomend to anyone passing by!!

Great staff very friendly tasty well presented food

The cutlery was very polished and clean.

Called in for lunch first time in a long time Food was average not sure 3 bean curry and a couple of glasses of wine was worth £22 wouldn't have been charged that in Leeds. 3 bean curry was predominately tomato and yellow peppers all heat and little flavour. May be a while before I return

Lovely home cooked food cooked from scratch. Reasonably priced and lovely helpful staff.

Visited the BLACK HORSE in Blyton for lunch.Staff were very friendly but the food was poor.The batter was not cooked,still wet inside.Simply horrible.So bad we couldn’t eat it.The staff were very apologetic but said the chef stated it was cooked.I think he needed to have his sight tested.The chips were not fresh either looked as if they had been reheated.We will not go there again until we hear they have a new chef. Very very disappointing.

Great pub serving home made food, reasonably priced , would recommend . They have accommodation too which is a real bonus.

A fantastic buffet above and beyond all my expectations. Kirsty was an absolute star at my retirement party. Definitely recommend the food and this fabulous food. Thankyou so much

Had a lovely meal here. Handled my allergy well. Will be returning with the whole family and my dog.

Handy location for visiting the nearby Showground. The room was a very good size for the price compared to a lot of other places and had plenty of storage spaces for clothes as well as numerous sockets for charging phones/tablets etc. Probably the only tiny improvement I could suggest would be to not have the pull cord for the bathroom light behind the door in the corner - you have to close the door behind you to get to it. Unlike some pub rooms, these are actually set at the back of the property rather than above it, so you are generally a little bit further from the main road/traffic noise. I would say however, maybe a tiny bit of noise proofing in the walls would be welcomed as you could hear anyone who was enjoying the beer garden which was outside of my room's window. There was an optional breakfast that could be added to the rooms and you are welcome to eat in the restaurant on evenings as with any other customer, but on this occasion I did not eat here purely because of my work schedule so I can't comment on the food (although it did smell nice when I went to check in with the (lovely) bar staff) Being autistic can make me struggle with routine change and being away from home comforts, but to my surprise I slept very well on both nights and if it wasn't for work I absolutely would have stayed in bed a lot longer. There was also free WiFi with each room having its own dedicated code. I would definitely consider staying here again!

Had Sunday dinner yesterday was not impressed at all two small slices of beef and loads of tinned peas. Did notice most of the customers eating steak pie that look loads better. We like a nice bottle of wine not jack Rabbit so probably wouldn’t return

Been today for Sunday lunch as we have a few times I ordered the turkey dinner and the slice on the top was turkey underneath it was thinly sliced pork I politely told the waitress and she went to the kitchen to tell the chef . I was told the chef said ot was turkey and couldn't do anything about it . I'm a cook myself and definitely know the difference between pork and turkey needless to say we will not be returning. Very disappointed

Only 5 miles from home this is a great little pub for good honest food. We visited with friends & our dog. Drinks served first & food came quite quickly after. There was an extensive menu with an alternative one for our gluten intolerant friend. We all had something different & we were all happy with our choices. A good plate full served piping hot! Lots of dessert choices too with a separate section of gluten free puds. We've been several times & never been disappointed so would certainly recommend 😁

Outstanding food, service and staff.

Meals are lovely, not stayed there

Lovely family meal ! As a family with differing dietary needs we all left happy ! It’s great to see so much choice on their gluten free / vegan &veggie menus ! The old traditional pub layout makes cosy “nooks “ to enjoy a meal without the noise from other diners . Friendly staff and clean well decorated pub & toilets ! Would recommend

I love eating Sunday lunch at Black Horse. The portions are a really good size with a good various of vegetables, roast potatoes and mash. We asked for extra gravy which the waitress got for us straight away. We didn’t have to wait to long even though it was busy. Staff are always friendly and helpful and we even get a doggie treats for our 2 dogs. Would highly recommend a visit.

Treated terribly. Pub was half empty on Friday evening at 7 pm. We bought drinks then asked to order a meal. We were told by one member of staff it would be okay but half hour wait, then another just rudely interrupted and said nastily “ we’re not taking walk ins””!!! So because we had bought the drinks we sat down and waited for half an hour, went to get a menu to be confronted with a nasty manner and” what are you getting those for- kitchens closed”. HOW RUDE! WHAT HAPPENED TO CUSTOMER SERVICE!! Last time we came here a few months ago the place was heaving and food was superb. The fact that it was half empty on a lovely Friday evening just says it all. Will NEVER go again and will make sure anyone who uses Blyton race circuit knows how down hill it’s gone!

Excellent food and friendly staff.

I called into the black horse inn. And had a meal I had lasagne chips. and side salad it was beautiful the staff were all very friendly couldn't fault the place and I will be back

Our local, clean tidy, great food and drink need to use more often

Very nice meal. We arrived and car park had only a few spaces left. We were greeted inside and quickly shown to a table when I thought we might be waiting. The service was pleasant and the meals arrived quickly. Chicken curry for myself from the lunch club menu. A reasonable plate for a lunch. My wife had the scampi from the main menu and a larger plate size. I sneaked one they were crispy and beautifully cooked. I topped off with the brownie the desert of the day. I had it with ice cream but could of had cream or custard. I have to say the best brownie I have ever had as I like them moist as this was. Definitely coming back now how do I find out when brownie is desert of the day again

Had several nice lunches here, very friendly staff + a good pint.

Really loverly meal , very generous portions, the only complaint was the price of soft drinks , £4.10 for a coke prices not available until you get the bill.

Very friendly behind the bar, although we only just made it in time to have dinner as they stop taking orders at 7:45 p.m. I had delicious gammon steak. We were staying for one night in the annexe bedrooms. It was the hottest week of the year so I was looking forward to having some air conditioning as advertised in the bedroom. Sadly it didn't work at all. The control panel said it was on but nothing at all was coming out. Very very disappointing and extremely stuffy in the room even with the window wide open. We have to leave at 7:30am but breakfast didn't start until 8:30 and there was absolutely no one around to talk to about the faulty air conditioning. Otherwise it could have been a lot better.

Unable to review the rooms as we did not stay we went for food only. We was passing through and spotted the black horse inn and decided to stop for lunch, I'm haply to say we did too. From the moment we pulled into the carpark we were delighted as rhe grounds are in a lovely setting. We stepped inside and immediately greeted warmly by a lady behind the bar and quickly got us a table that we were shown too by another member off staff. We opted for the lunch 3 course menu and was not disappointed for a moment. For the price of £12.95 the menu is not extensive but wholesome for sure and enough choice for us. We soon had a drink and ordered food from the table and it very quickly came out piping hot and delicious 😋 (it's like they knew we was coming and what we would order) the portions are plenty and the quality is excellent. We will be returning to sample other items from tje menu soon for sure and bringing family along too.. We had mint and pea soup and nacho starters, battered haddock chips and peas, pie of the day with chips and peas for mains with bread and butter pudding, treacle sponge and custard for deserts and left feeling ready for a nap.. The staff where all very friendly and the restraunt is very nice and cosy inside. Don't drive by stop and check it out!

Good food Good service reasonable prices

Please note we have not rated rooms as we did not book to stay. Family Sunday Lunch on Father's day. Great meal with fresh produce and a choice of meat. Other menu choices were also available and note all servings were quite large. Small selection of starters and deserts on this day but still more than enough for making a choice. Again all good quality and substantial portions. Service was excellent being both attentive and of a pleasant, helpful and friendly manner.

First time visiting today for food. Lovely food with excellent staff in a warm friendly atmosphere and I managed to find the entrance even on my first visit. Highly recommended

Good food , good beer. Never had an issue yet

Lovely food and friendly atmosphere.

The staff were friendly and service was prompt and the food all home cooked and very tasty will definitely be going again

Friendly staff, good food and clean and comfortable rooms

Popped in as i was in the area... fast and friendly food service. Only downside is that the carpark is rather small.

Really lovely meal, food was fresh and homemade. Staff were friendly and pleasant and was a lovely place to eat and drink.

The Lincolnshire sausage and mash were excellent.

Lovely staff and service. Lovely meals. Well worth the money. We keep returning as we enjoy it .

Honestly, beautiful! Have been twice now and both times the food has been fresh, flavoursome and perfectly cooked. Will 100% be going back at some point for another fix, and i will always recommend trying this place to friends and family. For the quality of food served, it is totally fair priced!

Our visit to the Black Horse Inn was a 5/5 experience. Sometimes, we don't feel very welcome in some venues - for a variety of reasons: other patrons for instance - because of a disabled child (it is what it is) and we were welcomed so genuinely it took us aback. We're looking forward to returning on our adventures 😊

Great value lunch club menu and friendly service.

Thursday night must be chefs night off meals poor. service wasn't much better either

Lovely meal an drink really enjoyed myself

Great food lovely staff all freshly cooked.The pub is full of atmosphere. I find the television showing fires and flowers a bit off putting myself but the others in the group love it.

The homemade pie and chips were very good .nx been b.httt

We had a lovely meal at lunchtime at the Black Horse. We were greeted by a lovely lady who was very accommodating finding us a table that suited my wife who gas visual issues. Two courses fir £10.45 is a very good offer, portion sizes were excellent. We both had fish and chips which was beautiful with a really tasty fish. Fur desert apple strudel crumble with Custard which was again very tasty. Staff were friendly and helpful throughout and it was an excellent experience.

We were visiting family who live in Scunthorpe, and there were seven in our party. The food was very nice, all produce locally sauced. I highly recommend a visit here. All the staff are very friendly too.

We called in on the off chance for something to eat , we arrived the lady behind the bar was lovely she said they were fully booked in the restaurant area but had a few tables in the bar area if we were ok to eat there, we choose the lunch menu two courses for £10.45 , I myself had chicken pie with chips and peas the pie was to die for amazing taste , and the other member of the party had gammon which was said to be cooked to perfection, we then ordered pudding which we though the portions could of been a little bit bigger than they were but what do you expect for another £2 .. Would definitely recommend calling for wonderful place and atmosphere staff couldn’t do enough for you brilliant place..

We ordered the main menu, and we had a little wait, but it was well worth it. The food was excellent. We would highly recommend this place, but no problem. It has a nice, friendly atmosphere, and i will use again.

Great food - 6 of us ordered different meals and we were all happy with them. Portions are generous which especially pleased the 3 husbands in our party - the pork belly and the beef stroganoff especially stood out as quality food. Nice deserts, friendly staff and good service means we will definitely be going back to our new favourite place.

We went for a family meal for 5 people, the restaurant was empty and we was stuck on the smallest table possible for 5 adults. The starters were really greasy and tasteless, chips were soggy and extremely greasy, Pie was nothing special with tasteless gravy, chicken was overcooked. Worst meal I’ve had and prices were extortionate for what is was, came home £130 lighter, Definitely won’t be back!!

Lovely place to eat service excellent great atmosphere

Lovely home made food, with plenty on menu to choose from x

The food was great value for money and well cooked. The wine was very expensive,£22pr bottle for a not particularly good Chardonnay however the bitter was excellent and well looked after Staff where very helpful but seating very uncomfortable, overall a good experience,as a group we will go back in the future but see if there is different seating available.

Went here for first time for a meal with family and nice pub great food friendly staff very welcoming.i had steak,Best steak I've had in a long time worth the money would definitely come again

Staff very friendly and helpful, food was excellent. We have been quite a few times to one function or another. Will definately be back

Traditional village pub,good atmosphere and staff. Not eaten so can't comment but always looks good!

Absolutely love this place, food is amazing very friendly staff

Amazing quality atmosphere, the staff were lovley and polite and answered all our questions about the menu and items, didn't stay in the rooms just came for a lovley lunch with family

Christmas Lunch, group of 5 retired ex work mates. Excellent meal, excellent service, and good value for money Staff very accomodating and pleasent, all 5 members of group agree it was the best Christmas Pub lunch we have had.

Great staff, very cheerful and happy to help, with good customer service throughout my stay. The food was lovely, pre warning, the portions are on the larger side. The sleeping accommodation was very good value indeed, very clean, very spacious and very comfortable. I would highly recommend and would stay again for sure.

Lovely food, service exceptional made us feel really welcome on our first visit. Will definitely be back, already booked for New year's day.

A very warm welcome from the bar staff on arrival, great food, reasonable prices Accommodation excellent with a full English the next morning Can’t fault

Excellent lunch at a very reasonable price.

Excellent Sunday lunch. Lovely staff and quick service. Will definitely be going again

Just had an excellent Xmas meal . Great food great service

We tried the black horse for food only it was all excellent home cooked food and lots of fresh vegetables

First visit to the Black Horse, found the staff friendly nice clean venue but the food was shocking. Both of our meals where returned to the kitchen and we left disappointed as we had heard nothing but good things about the food.

Met friends for lunch here and enjoyed a good meal in a great pub.

went with a few friends as an invite and had a Sunday dinner it was lovely al be going again.

Greatvplace for eating, good menu and well priced

Great food, reasonably priced. Nicely decorated inside. Friendly staff, would return anytime we are that way.

Our family members came and stayed two nights there and they said it was the best nights sleep they had had in a long time the food and staff were very good they can't wait to go back

Nice food but they need to train staff better. I asked about the kids meal for £2 as I had noticed it on the board outside but didn't read it (My ADHD brain). Staff member said I would get it with what I ordered. I then went to pay at the end of the meal and was charged full price because I'd not ordered from the main menu! I was not told this at the point of ordering, I had even said I wouldn't buy these meal if it wasn't the £2. It was only for my 9 month old!! I could have fed him food off my plate. When at the bar paying I pointed out that it was on the receipt at full price and another staff member said it as because I'd not ordered from the main menu. The staff member who had taken my order even said that she told me it would be £2 and it was just shrugged off! Imagine if I couldn't afford to pay the full price! What situation would that have left me in! It's disgusting. It should have been honoured at the cost I was told it would be at point of ordering.
