After a year of running the Black Horse, it’s with a heavy heart that we must bid you all farewell, with this weekend being that last time the pub will be run by ourselves.
Over the past year we have achieved so much, completely turning it around from its previous reputation and turning it back into the family pub that the area deserves.
Refurbing the entire building, along with a new kids park and most importantly adding the kitchen, which achieved a 5* star rating, kicking out some of best food in the area.
However, after everything, there simply isn’t enough trade to keep the doors open, nor can we achieve the numbers that are expected for us to achieve in years to come for it to remain sustainable. This on top of the heavy financial losses we have made this year, led us to this difficult decision.
Meeting all of you has been a blessing and we have made some friends for life, we can’t thank you all enough for! We have some amazing nights and will cherish those memories.
We hope the whoever the new owners are will continue with the same passion that we have had for the pub and continue with the improvements.
We are open Thursday through to Sunday (or until the beer/taps run out 🥲)
Thank you all once again.
Lee, Jess, Poppy & Olly
