    This little old pub is an absolute gem! Couldn't recommend the food, service and atmosphere more. If you are in the area and fancy some amazing fair definitely book to eat here, you will not be disappointed! Our waiter Eve was so lovely and helpful, we need to give her a shout out as she just topped it all off nicely. Thanks Packhorse Inn, we will definitely be back next time!

    Turned up without a reservation, on thursday after NY. Was offered a table outside but under cover and enclosed with plenty patio heaters. Food and service was excellent. Have been here before and enjoyed it then too. Highly recommend.

    What a fantastic meal in this gorgeous pub. The staff were SO friendly without being overbearing and the whole vibe super authentic and relaxed. The food was SENSATIONAL, we could not have asked for a better meal. The only disappointment is that we haven’t come across it sooner, we will be back!
