First visit to the Horse and Groom, Queniborough today for mothers day. Family of 8 with plenty of space and a very warm welcome. All staff were very attentive and polite, and the food was amazing. Best beef I have had in a pub for a very long time, none of that really thin precooked meat that is sometimes served in other places. Well done team, we will visit again. Thank you

We visited for Sunday lunch with family at short notice, they were really helpful and managed to fit us in. The 3 course Sunday lunch was delicious, really good quality home cooked food, crispy roasties, cauliflower cheese and Yorkshire puddings, huge portions with as much gravy as you like. Really recommend this lovely country pub that has a relaxed atmosphere with very helpful and friendly staff. We will be back!

Disappointed - been there numerous times in the past and always had a lovely meal, with plenty of extra food available and a wide choice of desserts. However, today, the beef was too hard and chewy for one member of our party to eat, the roast potatoes were overcooked and most of the desserts were gone! Oh, and they had also run out of mint sauce!! Shan't be returning in a hurry!

They were unable to cater for our Gluten Free and Dairy Free requirements. Edit to reply to owner: This is not exactly what we were told on the night. Our member of staff took 4 trips back and forth to the kitchen and still left us all not confident in her response. Using the phrases 'I think' is not acceptable when dealing with allergen advice. Poor allergen advice can kill and hence those affected do not take the risks when they have poor confidence in the staff. If we were to attend most other restaurants/pubs, we would be handed out an allergen advice sheet - this was not available at your establishment. Following your reply about the vegan Quorn sausages, I stand corrected and will let him know, but this is just what was fedback to me from him. I am heavily disappointed with the tone of your replies, something I would not expect from a professional page, however I will not let that jade my review. I can guarantee that following our visit we were not satisfied with the allergen advice given. In your other replies you say a poor review looks bad on me, but considering this review was our honest experience and appears to be a lack of confidence/communication by the serving staff as opposed to a kitchen problem, combined with your rude response, I feel this looks more bad on you.

came here on Sunday for the first time with family, as it was the end of my sister in law's hen weekend and also my mum's and my brother's birthdays they were very busy and so food took a bit longer than we expected to come out, but the couple running the place were great - the blonde lady that took our orders was lovely with my elderly grandma (my grandma thought you were lovely) and the food was so nice (and huge, i love my Sunday roasts and could eat them til the cows come home, but it even beat me!) def great value for money, great little place and will be back :-)

Me and my wife and sometimes extended family, visit this area often. Having tried many of the surrounding pubs, this is one of our favourites! We came in one Friday evening recently and noticed they had a new chef. After trying the menu before we were excited to see what else they could do! The young gentleman who served us was very kind, friendly and funny, kept us all entertained! The young girl on the bar said they were very busy and might be a wait, we didn't mind! I tried one of their new burgers, it was gorgeous! So much taste, plus hand made! My wife had the lasagne, home-made and she wanted second portion. My mother had the faggots which she enjoyed, and knew she would like (She uses the same local butchers) And my father had the fish which came out the size of a small ocean mammal! Hand battered, lovely. Highly recommend to anyone.

We love this place. It's been given a new lease of life since the new landlord took over about two years ago. A very cosy and welcoming pub....traditional style with good old fashioned 'service with a smile'. The dining room is seperate from the bar and there's usually a log fire burning on chillier evenings. In the summer months we have often eaten in the garden which has lovely patio furniture. The food is really delicious..all home made and my husband is now addicted to the Garlic Mushrooms and Lasagne...not to mention the Sunday Lunch which has the best crispy roast potatoes EVER ! The bar is dog friendly and a great place to call in for a drink before heading home after a walk.

The staff are friendly. They chat and can’t do more to help you! The gentleman who served us offered many options and was more than happy to cater to our needs. He spoke to our son (he’s five years old) and he is a fussy eater but because of his friendly and playful manner our son really enjoyed it and trusted the waiters recommendation. They also both loved Harry Potter so that made our little lad feel much more at home. The food was beautiful! Hot plates, fresh hand cooked food, a slight wait was mentioned when we entered (we hadn’t booked and the restaurant was busy) but we didn’t mind and it was worth it! Couldn’t fault the food or the service. Lovely open fire and friendly staff. Only criticism was the gentleman who was working, seemed a bit over stretched doing drinks, food and payments on his own in a busy restaurant. However he handled it extremely well, never stopped smiling and kept all the customer happy. The chef came out and spoke to us whilst we were eating and was equally friendly. A great team that clearly respect and get on well together. Highly recommend and will return in the new year! |

A group of 16 of us booked ourselves in for skittles evening with food. It was a great success. The pub was very helpful with the planning for the evening and even went to the trouble of putting on extra choices for those wanting vegetarian options. The pub is appealing to those who like a well maintained traditional pub atmosphere. The welcome was warm, the beer excellent and the food nicely cooked. £8-£12 covers most of the menu options. As you may gather from the above, we were impressed and plan to repeat the experience shortly. The Horse and Groom provided excellent value for money.

Booked in for works meal, restaurant was pretty empty but we were put in the corner and almost forgotten. No ambience and had the worst steak and chips ever. Had to ask for festive menu as wasn’t offered even though booked, then no cutlery, then had to call back for sauces. Steak was fatty and unappealing in looks and the chips were solid and brittle. I think they were reheated triple cooked chips from a couple of days before. I would have complained if 1) we had seen someone and 2) if anyone bothered to ask how our meals were. The person serving us was really pleasant but maybe inexperienced. Next year we will be booking somewhere else. What a shame. My parents visited a couple months back with friends and had the same sort of experience but they had to keep going to the bar to ask for service so feel The Blue Bell has just gone down hill which is a shame.

Great food, dog friendly, owner is great checks in to ask all is well, the restaurant is separate to bar and they could do with potentially remembering what you have ordered and when busy checking in to see if you need anything else without being called.
