The Blacksmiths Arms in Horsham

Booked for 10 of us and loved it. Every course we had was very nice and plentiful. The service was fab and loved the Italian chaps who served us with such enthusiasm. They were great. Good value for money. We shall be back we’ll done 👍

Food is just superb here. I had parmigiana (yummy) and sea bass (also yummy). The only thing I would say is the ambience is a bit basic - it could do with a bit more sophistication in my opinion. It’s a bit like eating in a 1970s M1 service station. But really, if you want great Italian food come here. You won’t be disappointed.

I’m not one to write reviews but the bad reviews for the 10/10 whilst totally entitled differ greatly from my family’s experiences. We have taken family and friends to the Blacksmith's for the last 4 weekends and indeed go tomorrow, The menu is great! Not over priced and the staff and food consistently excellent. On a couple of occasions if a tweak to an order is required they have accommodated the request with open arms. During recent challenging times the 10/10 started delivering which we have also used regularly, often for Sunday lunch, the app is the best I have used! Anyway give it a go.

Very tired lacking ambiance and lousy house red wine! Firstly you are greeted by a smelly owner , obviously a heavy smoker, and no smiles like a normal Italian restaurant. Maybe I have been to Italy too many times but this is not an Italian restaurant, maybe it was years ago? Many say you can judge a restaurant by it's house wine (red) which was really very poor cooking wine which perhaps says it all.

Excellent pasta and great Sunday roast. Good, friendly service. We thoroughly enjoyed our meal and ambience and will defo come back again.

Perfectly decent Italian food but the service is incredibly slow. There were only 3 tables in for lunch and we were still there almost 2.5 hours. Dread to think how they cope when the restaurant is full. Great pizza though.

It’s been a few years since I visited the Blacksmiths Arms but my friend assured me it was very good. Well. I elected to have the prawns for a starter which came served in a heavy tomato sauce, somewhat similar in looks and texture to a tin of tomato soup, which it wasn’t I hasten to add. However such was the flavour that it totally overwhelmed the prawns which were so hot I couldn’t begin to remove the shells until my friend had already finished his starter. For the main course I ordered Pizza Diavola…. The tomato was more like water resulting is such a soggy pizza base it was like slop. Truly awful. To compensate I was given a fee desert of average quality and a free shot of lemonchillo. They still had the gall to add 12.5% service. I suspect it will be another 4 years before I go back.

Had a couple of takeaway pizzas from here now and both times they've been exceptional. Wouldn't bother going elsewhere for pizzas now

Fabulous building / food / service and drinks . A very classy restaurant. Superb menu. I need to go back to try all the other food on the menu !

I can't recommend them highly enough! The pub is charming with plenty of parking. The food was delicious and service was definitely with a smile. We had a great evening and will return.

Very disappointing evening meal when meeting up with friends on a Saturday evening. Rib eye steaks average and cold veg. Fish dish and veg same mussels poor quality Not sure if waiter should be picking fruit out of cabinet with his fingers and placing them on diners desert. Hygienic?.

We had a fantastic family meal, 9 of us in all. The atmosphere is really nice and friendly as were the staff. We all had something different and all enjoyed our meals. Would recommend the Blacksmiths Arms and will definitely be going back.

We went on a recommendation and weren’t disappointed. The pub is a charming olde worlde Tudor village pub, the staff are lovely and the food is wonderful. The pizza made my Italian friend lose the power of speech she was so happy with it.

Stopped here for lunch. Staff were friendly and we decided to sit outside. We were pleasantly surprised to see the Italian menu, which is refreshing change from the usual pub offerings. Drinks were delivered quickly to our table. We chose escalope Milanese with spaghetti and it was delicious. Plenty of indoor and outdoor seating, big car park. Definitely worth a visit.
