Visited during the day a couple of times. Good beers, great selection of gins. Lovely traditional interior. Had a burger, which was a monster of a thing. Fairly expensive, but you get what you pay for and it was very high quality. Looks like it has a decent sized beer garden also with dog friendly enclosure.

Very nice atmosphere during lunch time. Amazing burgers and tortilla chips! Complementary wifi as I spend a few hours working from their outdoor space a few times this week.

Very welcoming and is dog friendly. Food was fabulous.

A nice old style pub with a fair selection of real ales and some above average food offerings. At times, the unwelcoming attitude of the management towards bicycle users impairs the experience, hence I'm giving it 3 stars

Lovely staff, good selection of ales and top quality food. Extensive beer garden and dogs are welcome. The comedy club upstairs/outside has proved to be surprisingly good, with top names from TV regularly on the bill.

Lovely pub, terrible food. Decided we'd stop here for a drink and some food as it has decent reviews on Google. The pub is nice, a traditional look, feels cosy. They have a decent range of drinks with some guest ales. Food though was quite disappointing. We ordered fish and chips, which was possibly microwaved as the fish was hot in parts and luke warm in others. The AFC tofu, AFC being 'Aylestone Fried Chicken' . This was by far the worst. Unseasoned medium tofu with a light batter. Nothing like what it sounds on the menu. At least use a seasoned firm tofu and better batter. For the prices paid we were expecting better than school dinner quality, left very disappointed.

Charming, rustic traditional pub just outside of Leicester city centre, distinguished by a spacious and comfortable beer garden. I visited the pub on the first day of their "Summer Beer Festival", which essentially meant a larger than usual cask ale and cider range, and a barbecue in the evening. I arrived early in the afternoon when it wasn't too busy, but by the time I left (around 5 pm), it had become quite busy. Service was friendly, the fish cakes I had were quite good and not too pricey, and the atmosphere was pleasant and relaxing. Some nice beers, too.

If you're looking for an old school pub with a relaxed homely feel, this is the place. We enjoyed Sunday lunch here after the Remembrance Day parade at Victoria Park, and I can't praise the staff and especially Colleen for hosting us. The food was 5*, and the locals were extremely welcoming. Looking at what this place has to offer from open comedy nights to quizzes in its separate venue, there's something for everyone. Child and dog friendly with an open fire and plenty of seating, I just wish I didn't live in Northampton as this would become my local!!! Until next time, to Colleen and the team, thanks from us all. You made a difficult day very memorable for all the right reasons.

Have been here for drinks many times. Lovely old school bar area and a lovely beer garden. Very dog and cycle friendly. Laughter Loft comedy event nights are very good.

A lovely first time experience, great atmosphere, a great sense of history, like a step back in time. great Sunday roast beef lunch. Will definitely return.

A really fine local classic neighbourhood pub. Not worth the trip from central Leicester, but a great place for locals. Like many Leicester pubs, they serve Everard's excellent local ales. I found the staff friendly and the atmosphere was nice. Plenty of seating and a nice garden. I saw a great Edinburgh fringe comedy show upstairs here. Would happily go again if in the neighbourhood

Poor offering at recent cycling event buffet. Food quality and quantity was lacking in line with price per person paid. Not the friendliest reception from staff, also not great. Unfriendly comments about bikes placed in the wrong place. Apologised and offered to move with no problem, but the atmosphere was off for the event we were holding and could have been avoided / much better! Nice outdoor space but otherwise below standard sadly.

We came here for Sunday lunch. Everything was pretty good, however what really stood out was the service provided by a young, dark haired man (I don't know his name, sorry). He saw us queuing at the bar and offered instead to take our food order at our table. He couldn't do enough for us throughout the duration of our visit. A credit to the place :-)

I love this pub. Had a lovely evening with my son and my two nephews. We had food, drinks and went on to watch TVI comedy upstairs. The reason I’ve dropped a star; is that the burgers each of us had were not very good. Dry and tasteless. I’d recommend the chef to eat somewhere like The MeatShack in Birmingham…get an idea of how it’s done properly. £13 is a lot to pay for substandard food.

Walked into lounge area roaring open fire and great atmosphere. One of the bar staff was extremely rude and ignorant. Others were all great. We'd hired the bowling room for the afternoon which was all lovely and warm for us. The BBQ food was set up in a small cabin and was amazing. Fantastic day. We like real ale good selection of that too. Highly recommended

It's so good to have this pub as a local. There are plenty of plaudits on here about the food and beer etc. and it's all true. This is more than a pub though. It's a community hub and reflects Alan and Sarah's warmth, enthusiasm and altruism. A number of interest groups have made it their base and they certainly know how to entertain. A visit to the Black Horse is more than going out for a drink, it's being part of something bigger.

We called in to what we hope will be our local pub when we move into the village. When we walked through the door it was very cosy where the staff were very helpful and made us very welcome. For entertainment you could not fault them. Lots to do and enjoy, especially over this festive season. We did not have time to try the food but we have it from family who have eaten there, the food was very good.

Food was absolutely phenomenal! There is a bit of a long wait for the food but it's cooked absolutely fresh and it tastes incredible, so in my eyes worth it. I'll definitely be coming back 🤤 The staff are really lovely and welcoming.

We regularly come here and the staff are so friendly, the food is lovely and fairly priced and it has a brilliant atmosphere. Dogs are welcome too ☺️Just a brilliant pub to come too, thankyou :)

Great vege and GF options - Visited twice so far and was really impressed with the food. Visited once for Sunday lunch - they had good options for vege, vegan and gluten free which is great. Second visit was for comedy night to see Zoe Lyons. Nice venue and comedy gig seating was comfortable and not cramped even though is a very small space. Was very well organised and enjoyed the cider on tap and the funky disco tunes played before after the act. Staff were very friendly and keen to manage the GF order carefully which is reassuring. Will defo go back.

Fantastic night with a Great jazz band, wonderful atmosphere, dancing, singing +yummy Christmas food. Thanks once again, Sarah, Alan + all the team. Well done.

Had a lovely meal at the Black Horse. We visited on a Wednesday lunchtime, I'd say it was busy for 12:30pm which is nice to see. The food was fantastic, plentiful, hot and tasty. The staff were really welcoming. Defo recommend.

Really nice pub, very quiet and chilled out and the staff were really nice. Had some nachos and loaded fries. The portions on both of them were really big and took me and my other half by surprise. Would definitely recommend.

Really enjoyed a lunchtime visit to this place for a burger and a beer, having not been in for a very long time. A really hospitable environment with very friendly staff, serving excellent beverages and food. It was winter for this visit, so now looking forward to another visit in the summer to see the back garden in full swing, it looked like a place that could really get rocking in the warmer months. Burger was excellent, if expensive. Highly recommended.

Great atmosphere and the food was amazing with really friendly and helpful staff. The burgers are epic and a decent selection of on tap beers.

Skin-on fish not my favourite, fries rather than chips (advertised as chips), "crumble OTD" not available at 1:30 pm so disappointing. Price & service ok but unlikely to be rushing back there.

Beautiful pub with a fantastic team and great beers. Why else would you go?

Good pub. Good selection of pub food well cooked. Lots of outside seating when weather permits. Good beers.

What a find! Staying in the Premier Inn typed into Googlemaps pubs and stumbled across it... and what a fabulous pub! Live comedy upstairs, great bbq outside, huge beer garden, great selection of beers... really impressed.

Lovely pub with plenty of old world charm. Helpful, friendly staff and good food. And a great selection of beers. Will be going back......

Nice pub, nice ales and good staff. Family dinner was good. Lost 1 * because for the price the food was just lacking something special.

A flying visit to Leicester meant we stopped here for dinner. staff were very welcoming and helpful. food was delicious and well priced. great selection of drinks available. We were lucky enough to join the weekly pub quiz, which whilst being quite competitive was lots of fun!
