user reviews of the Horse and Groom, Bittaford

please note - reviews on this site are purely the opinion of site visitors, so don't take them too seriously.

totally disagree with post below, we are regular at the Horse & Groom and love the food (which is excellent value for money), great selection of real ales and ciders, often holding live music and Charity beer and cider festivals, what else could you ask from a Nice family run village pub!!!
Pubs are closing down up and down the country, give your local the support they need before its too late!!!

Was disappointed with this place to be honest.
We found it was expensive and lacked a bit of atmoshere.

5/10

Normally when pump-clips are displayed above and behind the bar it will probably have a good choice of real ale. This pub is no exception.
Hunters; Horse and Groom 4%abv, Teingworthy; Pippa's Pint 4.7%, Tribute and an other.
I echo the previous comments about the food. Good choice, excellent taste and at fair prices. The chef (who also took our order) was very pleasant, friendly and informative about the menu/ingredients etc.
On the other hand......... I'm not sure about the landlord (if that is who he is) whether he was a miserable old git or, he was a bit Mutt and Jeff. I couldn't make out if he was being awkward at times. Maybe a regular could explain his ways.
Don't let the car park put you off stopping here. It felt like parking in a bomb crater - or at least it did when I came out after a few jars. No officer, honest............I only had a couple.
My highest ever mark, so far, 9/10.

A bit harsh below (except for the lighting thing): it's actually OK+.

Possibly the third man-made structure - after the Great Wall of China and the M25 - to be visible form space thanks to the (always) incredibly (and unnecessarily) brightly lit interior.

Nothing special, but it's OK.

the food is of a high quality and melts in your mouth and there is a wide varierty of food to choose from and the specials board is always changing the locals are freindly and so is the land lord

This is a locals pub. The food is simple and honest. The portions of salmon and trout are unbelievable. Often caught by the landlord or one of the regulars. The Guiness and other beers are top notch and if you ask nicely you will get a shamrock on top from the land lady. Only downside is it sometimes is used by passing people who will never use it again, but expect to be put to the top of the queue and tell the world. When the live music is on get there early. Also has Pool Table and Dart Board, with enthusiastic teams. Saturday night is meat draw with the money going to charity. The topside of beef is worth winning.
