We try to visit whenever passing through the town. Amazing thatched building on the high street. Mind the low ceilings :) Cosy, clean interior with lots of nice beer and pub related items like pump clips and beer mats decorating the bar area. Always seems friendly and good range of Batemans ales on the bar. Enclosed beer garden to the rear. We didn't have food but the pie based menu looks like great value with a filling and level of sides to suit all appetites. Toilets spotless on a daytime visit.

Didn't eat here so unable to comment on the food but it was just my kind of pub. Unpretentious and down to earth, there should be more places like this. A reasonably priced pint of the excellent Batesons XB went down very well after a long walk.

What a fantastic breath of fresh air! Excellent old fashioned pub with thatched roof. Food choice is: pies and mash/veg etc. Sounds like a limited choice, but it was presented swiftly and perfectly from cheerful friendly staff. We ate outside in the comfortable and attractively decorated beer garden. Both mine and my wife's plate were left clean! And - all washed down with arguably the country's best ale: Bateman's XXXB from the county's brewery at Wainfleet. I had almost abandoned hope of getting a good meal in this country, but this establishment has restored my faith in the hospitality trade. Well done!

Was looking forward to visiting after long bike ride. Had 1 drink, place smelled of cat pee really bad, though outwardly looked clean. Won’t be visiting again I’m afraid.
Called in yesterday, wanted to spend a few hours on horncastle for drinks, staff and atmosphere terrible , nice pub etc, a smile would have been nice

I've been happy with my previous visits but on 13th July 2023 I went in with a group of friends and we were verbally abused by the landlady and a young woman who was apparently her daughter and who called us 'rude' when we had done nothing.

Nice friendly thatched pub in the centre of town.Good range of draught beers.You'll need to find a local car park as it is on the main road with no parking in front.
