✨MEET THE PEOPLE BEHIND THE THREE HORSESHOES✨

We thought it was about time we properly introduced Dan and Viki, the people behind the new chapter here at The Three Horseshoes.

Dan and Viki run a small family of independent pubs across Devon and Cornwall, including our sister pubs the Edgcumbe Arms at Mount Edgcumbe and the newly reopened The Who'd Have Thought It Inn St Dominick.

Each pub has its own character, community and reason to visit. They are not interested in making every pub look or feel the same. Their belief is quite simple. A good pub should be famous for what it does, but remembered for how it makes people feel.

For The Three Horseshoes, the vision is a proper country pub where excellent food still feels relaxed and welcoming. Somewhere for a pint at the bar, a family lunch, dinner with friends or a special occasion without any unnecessary fuss.

Dan and Viki work closely with Joe, Grace and the wider team, giving us the freedom and support to look after people properly and keep improving what we do. You may not always see them front and centre, but they are very much involved behind the scenes and regularly around the pub.

They have put a huge amount of belief into The Three Horseshoes and are determined to build something Cowley and the surrounding area can feel genuinely proud of.

If you see Dan or Viki when you visit, please do say hello. They will almost certainly stop for a chat and would genuinely love to hear what you think.

From all of us, thank you for supporting this next chapter. We are excited about what lies ahead.

Another new dessert from Chef Joe…

First making its appearance on Sunday, our homemade Salted Caramel & Amaretto Tart is the latest sweet addition to the menu. 🤩

Rich, silky salted caramel with that subtle almond warmth from the Amaretto, all freshly made in-house by Chef Joe and served with a scoop of clotted cream ice cream.

And don’t worry if you missed it on Sunday… it’s staying on for the rest of the week!

The perfect excuse to save room for dessert. 🍻

🍑 A little taste of summer 🍑

Say hello to our Peach Tarte Tatin!

In today’s video, Chef Joe talks you through how he makes this beautiful dessert, from caramelising the peaches until they’re sweet, sticky and golden, to baking them beneath buttery pastry before turning the whole thing out to reveal that gorgeous glossy top.

A little bit of history…
The Tarte Tatin is a classic French dessert dating back to the late 1800s. It’s said to have been created by the Tatin sisters, who famously baked their apple tart upside down. What began as a happy accident went on to become one of France’s best-loved desserts.

Joe has given the classic his own seasonal twist with juicy peaches, finished with a scoop of ice cream for that perfect mix of warm, caramelised fruit and cool, creamy sweetness.

Simple ingredients, a little bit of history and plenty of care from our kitchen. 🍑

Who’s saving room for dessert? 👀🍻
