Delicious Food in a Cosy Pub/Restaurant
Only a mile and a half from Gatwick airport and 2.5 miles from the M23 the Black Horse is the perfect place to stop off for your last and first taste of Britain during your holiday or just to break your journey. Whether you’re looking for a great Breakfast to start the day right, an easy lunch or a delicious dinner, rest and relax as we take care of you. There’s loads to discover on our menus, as well as all our usual favourites like our Steak & Tanglefoot Pie made with our very own Tanglefoot beer or succulent Fish & Chips, we’ve also got some delicious vegan meals like our Vegan ‘Shepherds’ Pie, a regularly changing specials board full of seasonal dishes, Sunday Roasts and oh so much more.

Although we take all reasonable precautions to prevent cross contamination of allergens, this is not always possible as we handle and prepare a variety of open foods that contain allergens and at times, cooking equipment and food preparation areas may be shared.
