Review is based on a visit for food and not a stay. Popped in for an evening meal here with a friend. Staff were extremely friendly and helpful right from the start. For starters had classic whitebait which was lovely, especially the dipping sauce that came with it. For main I ordered a chicken and bacon enchilada, only issue was it wasn't really an enchilada, basically a chicken and bacon in some sort of cream, in a wrap with cheese grilled on top, way too much cream and not a sniff of tomato anywhere, real shame. Thankfully dessert made up for it, a lovely sticky toffee pudding that was light, flavourful and not too sweet with a lovely custard. Shame about the enchilada as I'd been craving a proper one for days, and still craving it now. Worth a visit still.

The pub is very racist and anti-English, I went in with my family and asked if they were still serving food. The barman wiping a glass just looked at me for ages without saying a word, and eventually just shook his head, the pub was full of workmen and everyone went deadly quiet. After the embarrassment and humiliation of the encounter I decided to leave, A lovely old gentleman must have taken pity, grabbed my leg and kindly said the restaurant was at the bottom as we were walking out. He was a customer and treated us so much kinder than the barman who was just horrible for no reason. We only went the restaurant due to being so hungry. The staff in the restaurant itself were very accommodating and friendly and the food was lovely! It’s just a shame that the experience we had in the pub was disgraceful

The staff member serving us was clearly tipsy and openly admitted to having had a few drinks. They were friendly enough but we felt something wasn’t quite right. We soon noticed the utter state of some of the locals who were beyond drunk and behaving in a totally awful manner. This made us feel very uncomfortable. This place looks like a sweet country pub but it’s actually a bit rough. Would not recommend.

A cut above your average hotel. Large and comfortable room with windows that actually opens! Large double bed with quality pillows. Traffic passes directly under window but is fairly quiet after 9.00pm. (Ear plugs are provided in room!) Good size bathroom/shower that has decent water pressure. Tea/coffee facilities are available in the room. WiFi was hopeless (maybe due to the thick stone walls). Very pleasant and friendly staff (was permitted to check in prior to the advertised time). Good cooked breakfast available from 8.00am.

Knighton is the perfect place to explore Offah’s Dyke. But it is not blessed with an abundance of hotels. So my friends and I were delighted to find the Horse and Jockey. It’s a delightful, reasonably priced country inn situated right in the heart of this historic town. Staff are charming, friendly and helpful in all settings. There is a very pleasant restaurant with a great choice of reasonably priced food and drink. Meals can also be taken in the cosy bar. Rooms well appointed. All in all a very nice place to explore this wonderful part of Wales.

The room was great, really clean, big bathroom with a powerful shower and equipped with tea/coffee etc. Every staff member was friendly and welcoming and really couldn't be any more accommodating. The breakfast was excellent, really good quality and our friends had an evening meal, which they said was excellent. A local tells me we booked the best accommodation in the area and I definitely agree. Your staff are amazing and you should be really proud.

'The Jockey' is a 'local' for us and we're privileged to have it conveniently close: we are reasonably regular visitors. Service is always good, good-natured, friendly and courteous. The food is decent quality pub grub; not haute cuisine, but then nor are the prices. The menu is not huge but caters for most tastes as well as featuring daily specials alongside old favourites. They serve my favourite local beer, Butty Bach, too so what more could one ask.

We arrived early afternoon to what we thought was a pleasant country pub but dont be fooled by the pubs appearance .once inside its nothing but appauling witnessing bar staff openly telling customers they had cosummed alcohol before there shift and couldn't wait to take drugs when others arrived. This was just the start the swearing shouting and behaviour from customers was just awfull . To then witness a sexual act in the toilets (early evening when more than acceptable for child to be present ) this was made awear to the young bar lady who had no idea how to deal with the situation who become so disstressed and out of her depths to deal with any altercation no mangement to be seen and other bar members to intoxicated to care. We left and will not be returning to such a disgusting place

Took my elderly aunt to the Horse & Jockey for lunch. The waitress who served us was really pleasant. Nothing was too much trouble. My aunt, who will openly admit she is a "fussy one," throughly enjoyed her lunch and ate it all. My baguette was perfect. It was slightly warm and crispy with plenty of filling. I would certainly recommend this pub.

We had a great family reunion here at lunchtime with tasty reasonably priced food in the restaurant which everyone enjoyed. Many of us went to the bar area afterwards for a drink and chat, this was also very pleasant. The staff were helpful and friendly. All went very well during the day, unfortunately three of us has booked to stay the night. The rooms were great, clean and comfortable, but they were above the bar and patio area and the noise from the patio area especially, was dreadful- drinkers shouting, swearing and kicking the patio furniture until midnight as well as loud music blaring out, I don’t know if this happens on a regular basis, but it prevented us from sleeping until very late at night! The breakfast in the morning was tasty and good quality.

We had a Christmas meal with a large group of friends, and it was absolutely lovely. I can’t fault the food (everyone enjoyed what they had) and the service was friendly and efficient. Highly recommended! The only reason I have given a 4- rather than 5- rating is because of the really poor choice of vegan food. I nearly didn’t go because the only offering on the menu was arancini, which is what I would expect as a starter, not a main meal. A message to ask if other options could be offered resulted in a suggestion of nut loaf, which was much more acceptable, and turned out to be probably the best I have ever had, so I really don’t know why it wasn’t on the menu. I didn’t have a dessert because there didn’t appear to be a vegan option. It would be wonderful if the obviously excellent chef could offer more vegan/vegetarian food, because I would certainly be a regular visitor if there was better availability - which must be true of a lot of people. Without last night’s experience, I’d just look at the menu and go elsewhere, which would be a real shame.

Rapsquillion just had their Christmas meal at the Horse & Jockey, after a great carols session at the Greyhound in Llangunllo. I'm not one that takes pictures of my meals or tells the world where I've dined - but this was simply marvellous. Every dish served - and there were ten of us, vegan to carnivore - was delicious, perfectly cooked and presented beautifully. Our waitresses were charming and efficient. It couldn't be faulted - so THANK YOU, H & J! We'll be back!

We ate Sunday Lunch here just 2 days ago (26th September) and I have to say it was excellent. We've recently moved to the area and a friend who lives in Kinsham took us here for lunch. The service was first class, the food both well cooked and presented. Not to mention very generous portions. As a restauranteur myself (having owned 12 various establishments over the past 35 years) I do appreciate good food and service when I receive such. I can also be quite critical if such things are not of a good standard. Suffice it to say I would recommend this establishment to everyone. In fact we are returning there for Dinner this evening.

Staying in Knighton with our dogs in tow. The pub is ideal as it has nice tables in the courtyard. Food was good and they adapted a dish for my partners dietary requirements. XXX ales was good.

Great to see post Covid that customers are welcome with open arms…. Unless you choose to go here! Greeted with “no food”, not a “unfortunately we are not serving food.” So we ask for 2 coffees to be told “I’m too busy do you want a pint?” Evidently elementary customer service has bypassed this lady. Disappointing really…. In fact we had better service and a great choice of food at the local Co-op instead. If stopping in Knighton I’m sure there are other places that will welcome your custom.

2 couples and our 2 dogs popped in here this week for some lunch. 2 had the hot steak baguette… wow! Simply delicious!! So much steak on it! Hubby had a meat pizza and he couldn’t even finish it! Soo nice! Really enjoyed and wished we lived closer! Highly recommend

Stopped with my wife to explore Knighton and came across this inn. Staff were friendly, food and drink very good and fairly priced and inn had character which topped off our experience here of Sunday lunch. When we are next in Knighton, this is where we will be heading for lunch. Absolute gem of a pub.

I stayed saturday evening and i was completely appauled by the sequence of events that occured during the evening the manager that evening set apon a young guy who obviously had mental health issues and his second in command just stood by and laughed the locals had to separate the guy from the manager at one point the manager was biting the guys hand this was an awful experience which was brought on by the manager

Stopped here for Sunday lunch on our way home from a weekend away. Booked ahead as it does get busy. We ate in the restaurant which was very clean, had nice private booths for eating. Staff were professional, polite and attentive. Food was perfect and fantastic value for money. No hesitation to recommend.

We stopped here to break up a long journey. Straight away it seemed very unwelcoming. My son is autistic, and because he seemed more comfortable in the corner section we asked to move tables. We were advised that was the dog friendly section, and obviously we would move if needed, it was quiet at the time, but this seem like an inconvenience to move tables. Then when my son was wandering in the pub, this seemed to annoy a couple of guests, and I know he seemed hyperactive but these are some of his autistic traits, this seemed to annoy one couple in particular, where the man was making very rude comments ( I know you have no control over who comes into your pub) but overall it just felt very unwelcoming in there. Are kids not allowed in here? It didn't seem like it. We come past this pub often, so we will not be stopping here again.

Nice enough pub and the ladies working there were very pleasant. After reading the reviews we were looking forward to a nice lunch but I was bitterly disappointed by my choice. The lasagne had virtually no filling, it was all pasta and completely lacked any flavour at all. I've never used so much salt and pepper with a meal to try and add some taste. I really hope they improve on the recipe moving forward.

We dropped in without booking hoping to get lunch. I was with my friend and her disabled dad. They were able to offer us a table and from the start the experience was excellent. The staff member ( I think it was the Manager) came out to the car park to see if we needed any help with the wheelchair. We were promptly seated and drinks and food order taken quickly. All members of staff were polite and friendly. The food came in a good waiting time and we were all really pleased with the food. I had an ultimate burger, my friend a Thai beef dish and her dad an all day breakfast. Great portion sizes, hot and all tasty. Really reasonably priced as well ! Thankyou for such a great experience
