The Running Horse in Bracknell Forest

All staff are very friendly, highly recommend

My husband had roast beef looked as though it had been stood in the fridge for weeks and black roasts, some burnt carrots, I had gamon that was all pink inside and watery, we both had sticky toffee pudding with custard in a big pudding bowl custard was over spilling, we ended up with cooked breakfast will NEVER go back there again

Went for Sunday roast. Had to use the app to order meals as system was down. This was fine. Sunday roast was disappointing. Very small portions and looks like been under a heat lamp all afternoon. No so Hungry Horse more pony on a diet. Desserts we're only j7st a bit better.

The running horse bracknell, excellent food very friendly staff. Nothing is to much trouble. Nice surroundings clean and safe.

Jordan laura and the kitchen team were amazing, fully surpassed our expectations will definitely come back again!

Nice food. It was weekend and the gentlman who welcomed us was great! Nice tasty family dinner 😊 Cocktails were great with a great deal! 🍹🍹 And my bacon cheese burger was really tasty.

Food was lovely and fresh and staff very friendly

Friendly staff and always get looked after, especially by Kally. My mate Wendy also highly recommends!

Callie, Hannah and Sarah are the best! We love this place. ❤️ food is great, staff is amazing

Georgina is a joy to work with, Lovely, friendly and works her socks off.So refreshing for a customer experienc😁

Came here after Bracknell Half to watch football. Free parking, very sensibly priced meal, and very helpful and accommodating staff. Huge shout out to the barman Jordan who went the extra mile to ensure we had a good experience. Food was solid and lots of seating to allow football to be watched in comfort.

The full monty mixed grill was cooked to perfection, absolutely delicious! Compliments to the chef (whoever was working the lunch shift on the 8th May 2025)

Really great place we was down visiting from Liverpool and stumbled across this really nice looking pub it got instantly better when we was greeted by a car park of old classic ford's which found out was a regular monthly meet onto a winner when we went inside was seated and shown the breakfast menu which was simple but made deciding much easier we went for the big breakfast and was not disappointed it was huge everything was cooked perfectly and think bacon and nice and crispy staff was friendly will be back again very soon

Kally has been amazing. She is so nice and friendly. I definitely recommend here

Nice place but was treated very rudely by bar staff today was waiting and waiting other people came to the bar and got served before myself and when I said I was next told I was at the wrong bar and I said dose it really matter I was next in the que with that they ignore me and served someone else even though the other customer said I was next. So I left the pub with my family and went to another pub in bracknell. It's a shame as the running horse is usually good but not this time. And not one member of staff asked me not to go. Very very poor staffing no customer service.

Our regular local for food. Just had Sunday roast which was ok. Came with a drinks deal. James served our food and we’ve known him in the pub for a long time. Always attentive and wishes us a nice day every time. Great customer service from him everytime we visit. New outdoor furniture installed this week but the pub in general is crying out for a refurbishment. Greene king, get your act together, this as a good pub other than the deccor.

James is very friendly and helpful during services

Mark, Jordan, Jally and Laura were great!! Kept checking on us through the meal.

Jordan, Kelly,Laura, mark and Gorgie really made the evening wonder a real credit to the pub will come again

Jordan was amazing he was able to support and help our requirements

Brill service Georgia was really friendly and I would recommend the running horse to anyone. Nice food nice atmosphere.

Excellent service from Caroline Michelle and Mark

Lovely family friendly pub with a good selection of drinks and food was great- especially with a fussy child who was intent on a non-menu meal but they were able to provide exactly what was wanted. Jordan and Cally were both especially helpful when Blue light card discount wasn't available due to bank holiday, and by downloading the Greene King Sports app, I was able to get a free drink and 10% off drinks which realy helped. Also a little play area which was great for the little one to burn off some energy before heading back to the hotel :)

Staff came across rude and abrupt.NOT a nice experience to have endured, Customer skills training required!!!

Excellent friendly service and great food, Staff are polite and helpful, especially James our Waiter.

Plenty of parking. Wheelchair accesible. Clean toilets. Friendly staff. Cheap and cheerful delicious food, which is just what we needed after a long day. A Hungry horse never dissapoints!

Mark and the team were pleasant and food was portioned very well nice clean and tidy place big outdoor space will be returning

We often have family birthdays here and they always go out of there way to make us welcome. The food was great.

Mark the Manager Jordan the bartender Georgie the the bartender Me and my friend came to the running horse for a well needed catch and for some food and drinks, the above people have made our experience a 10/10. Thank GK Bracknell

We popped in for some food and to watch some football. The food & drink came quickly. The staff were friendly and checked in on us to see if we needed anything. The food was good, well priced and very tasty.

Food is really nice, the team are friendly and attentive. Place is great, we enjoy coming here.

Roast dinner was gross vegetables had seen better days one slice of beef 4 small roast potatoes and the mash looks like it had been sitting there for days , the sausage on the mixed grill looked like it hadn't seen a fryer the rest of the meat on the plate was dry

Jordan was exceptional tonight. It’s not easy coming out for dinner with 2 young kids at times, but his customer service and attention to the kids is something a lot of staff can learn from.

James and the team was good. Thank you very much.

Never been here before but will come back again. Great people great service great food

Me and my partner come in a lot of the time and we have amazing service especially from Michelle and Jordan and the team we thoroughly love it here and we always want too come back for the atmosphere. Would definitely recommend the place

Decent meal for a reasonable price. Large group (15-18 people) on the adjacent tables from a local football team, were rather loud rather spoiling the atmosphere. Hence my lower rating for Atmosphere.

James was really great and the food delicious

Excellent service, great value. James, Michelle and Caroline were all very friendly and helpful. See you again soon

I went in and immediately i got greeted by Jordan on the bar, he was bubbly asked loads of pleasant questions and gave amazing service. He checked back and made sure everything was going well for me and my family. I recommend the drinks and the food also. We will definitely come back again. Again Jordan was AMAZING

James was excellent and the rest of the staff as well

Michelle and James were absolutely fabulous on my visit

James, our server was incredibly friendly , helpful and efficient. Also props to the chefs. Best food we've had in a while from here. Had the bacon cheese burger and it was delicious. Will be continuing to frequent this location.

Hannah was a brilliant barmaid, always a perfect pint, always smiling too. Great atmosphere and lovely bar staff all round.

A cheap local but with food its a roulette wheel, sometimes ok sometimes lousy. If its real busy then good chance of a poor meal. Avoid steaks

We have been here about 6 times over the past year whilst visiting The service is always brilliant both efficient and friendly We always have fish and chips ( meat free Monday) and it is always fantastic. The fish and batter are amazing! Thankyou Running Horse Look forward to our next visit and wish we lived closer otherwise you would be our regular Redlady

Very cool and very good staff and very clean and tidy and nice people too very happy to be here and wait to go back to visit them again

Fantastic friendly staff, great food at a great price
