The Black Horse Inn in West Lindsey

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.

Great staff very friendly tasty well presented food

The cutlery was very polished and clean.

We went here for a meal. It was definitely worth going for the food and service is outstanding definitely recommend this place 👍👍

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

Very pleasant meal in nice surroundings

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.

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!

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.

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.

Lovely place to eat service excellent great atmosphere

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 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.

Excellent lunch at a very reasonable price.

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 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.

Great meal. Mahoosive portions.

Good food, service and beer. Lunch time is well worth a visit.

We've been for meals here at different times of the day. The lunch menu is cheaper but so is the portion size, it's still good value for money though. Nice atmosphere and well decorated, the staff really are lovely, no matter who is working.

Tasty food, great portions, and staff are really lovely.

Reviewed this pub after our visit just over a year ago and gave it 5 stars. We had heard that it had changed hands and reviews seemed more mixed but we decided to ‘give it another go’. Prices have risen, which I suppose is inevitable, so ‘the lunch club deal’ of 2 courses was now £10.45 instead of £8.95. However in our opinion it still represented excellent value for money. The menu was very similar and still included the ‘old-fashioned traditional puddings’. There seemed to be a bit of difference in portion-size between the dishes our group of 4 had………everything was perfectly adequate but some plates were definitely fuller than others! Presentation of the food was perhaps a little lacking but it was well-cooked and very tasty. The place has a good country pub feel, however on this occasion it was much quieter than our previous visit despite being a similar time of year, so we guess it’s less popular.

Haven't been since covid staff welcoming and helpful

Nice location, decor, food and pleasant staff

Very poor , Sunday lunch .Bland watery vegetables, poor quality meat , pay extra 95p gir mash potatoes, we will not be going back.

Lovely meal, good service and friendly staff

Good food. Good service. Lovely garden seating area on a sunny day. Quaint village pub

Food very good value Bar is air conditioned

Not a black horse in sight. Did try 3 starters and the stilton chicken which were all lush

Brilliant value for the money and excellent service

Great atmosphere very popular We had to move table though as we did book a quiet one but got sat next to a 60th party but once moved it was good food was delicious and great help when choosing from the menu Will go back again

Didn't use the rooms. After a couple of cliches,the food we had was lovely,very nice staff,and good spirits all round,will definitely return

First visit after hearing good reports and was not disappointed. Very warm welcome on arrival and was served by a very polite and friendly young waitress. Excellent choice on menu, food came in a very reasonable time and was very good. Great pub food and will definitely return.

We just ate at the pub but the food was excellent and the service was great 👍. If the the rooms are as good as the service &food they will be excellent to. Cheers and we will definitely go again

Excellent service with a good ambience worth a visit,

Only used pub for a lunch , pleasant, food ok ,worth a future visit , good car parking at rear of premises

Good food very reasonably priced

We call regular and up to now they have accommodate us. Staff very nice The rooms we have not tried as live local but was talking to some who have. They say they are nice. Food very good Garlic mushrooms, not the usual brand ones, thats hot in centre Crispy and bigger mushrooms Gammon cooked to perfection for me with home cooked chips egg, pineapple, peas Steak is on the menu I enjoyed on a previous occasion Would recommend you try yourself. Best to check book.

Was.nice ..not as nice as it as been got garlic mushroom could,t taste the garlic and too much salad only 4 mushrooms

Great hidden gem! I We went with 3 generations, my children and grandparents. A tough crowd normally but all we’re pleased! Portions are really good (too good), chips are proper, kids meals (and the rest) were authentic and not frozen, gravy is like my grans! Exactly what you want from a country pub! Staff were amazing, even when the place was rammed. Landlady has a lot of energy, really creates a welcoming feel to everyone who walks through the door. I kind of don’t want to do a review as our hidden gem will be exposed! But I’d love to see others enjoy it as much as we did! We shall be back!
