Stopped at this pub on the way to Wales and have to say we felt so welcomed and at home. Everyone was friendly and chatty and we felt like a local. Excellent value for money and very dog friendly. Would recommend if you want a good value for money pub with a great atmosphere.

Always great value for money and the staff are always so welcoming - especially the landlady Em - my favourite place in Trowbridge to eat and drink.

A group of us booked for lunch for around 14 as they had a good Seniors Menu and quite often the normal menus at many pubs are a bit tto much for many of us at lunchtime. It was a bit complicated because they asked for a deposit at the time of booking and inevitably some of the group booked later without pre ordering as requested. The food arrived at a reasonable time and in the main was well received. However, my steak and kidney pudding was a bit grisly and I had to change a fork as it had food remnants on it from previous use. My partners Chicken Diane was cold and on a cold plate and the chicken was quite tough. I also noticed that the table in our places had beer stains on it and the joints on my chair squeaked when ever I moved. It was a warm day and I noticed when the window was opened the stay had very loose screws where it was connected to the window frame, a bit of poor maintenance here. The group are used to regular lunches together and always pay individually at the bar less the deposit already paid, which makes sense, however, the Black Horse decided that the group total had to be paid as one payment, which meant that the group spent a deal of time exchanging cash with each other and arrranging IOU 's so that just one of the group could pay at the bar. We were not pleased with this arrangement and will not be revisiting.

My parents went here for a meal pensioner s special as they do couple o time a month, but they where treated badly and told they could not have a pudding unless they ordered it when whey ordered the main meal, which is appalling, the service was very rude towards my parents and even came to the table and said that her manager was backing her up, after the countless time we as a family have been here we won’t be ever again

It was open late, cheap and cheerful and dog friendly. Food was not very good quality but ok for the price, staff were friendly enough and I feel sorry for them as the back of house looked as dirty and tired as the toilets were- broken toilet seats, filthy floors and walls, black mould on the sealant around the sink… the mens were even worse according to my companions! Very off putting!

This pub is great! The food was quick, cheap and delicious, the drinks were the same, and service was very very friendly. The manager (I didn't get her name unfortunately) was lovely- she was very easy to talk to, and although this was only my second visit, she remembered a small detail I spoke to her about the night before, and was eager to make conversation about that with me again. My boyfriend is a rather fussy eater, yet the team catered towards both our needs without any hassle. There's a range of activities for people to enjoy such as darts, pool, and a few slot machines. Overall, it was a very lovely night and I would definitely go back again.

Quality food. I've eaten here twice now and had the burger twice though with different topping - Burnt Ends OMG Amazing! Quantity. The food portions are perfect we left feeling nicely full and it was all so tasty. Value. We had a 20% off voucher which always helps us even if we hadn't the quality & quantity provided makes it excellent value. Friendly & Welcoming. It smells a nd feels like a "proper" pub. And it was really busy for mid week (or maybe I just don't get out enough!). I'd booked a table anyway so no problem getting seated. Ladies behind the bar were very friendly & welcome. Will definitely return.
All staff were amazing so helpful and friendly, food was delicious lots of deals to choose from... Highly recommended.Kid-friendliness: High chairsParking: Great location nex to pub

Quick, friendly service. Nice food. Would recommend for a traditional pub meal.

What can I say my group and I have visited here several times. The service is fab and the people even better. Can not believe that a main meal can cost you so little and be so good and very enjoyable. We may be loud but we are coming back. Thank you
