    Our family of 8 had dinner at The Flying horse, staff were very attentive regarding food allergies for my grand daughter. and my daughter disliking tomato in a meal. But.. we were very let down with waiting over 1 hour for 2 jelly desserts for the kids and an apple and rhubarb crumble that was served as an apple and blueberry crumble. We made requests to the service staff 4 times for the kids desserts. Overall happy with the service for the main but waited an excessive time for the desserts.

    Food (parma) was good, chips were a little burnt. Cocktails took forever to arrive 40ish minutes. We already had our meals. Margaritas were undrinkable, was more sour than the salt on the rim of glass. Waste of money and took way too long. Asked for mocktail margaritas to not have salt on rim as kids didn't want the salt. This was messed up several times.

    This is at least the 3rd or 4th time this has happened to me lately... I go there every Thursday night .. I have left my reserved table to either get another drink or a hot chocolate... gone barely a few minutes and everytime I get back to my table it has totally been stripped... this is despite on every occasion I already had ordered sweets and was still waiting for them to come... surely there can be much better communication than assuming I have left the venue!!! If this happens again I wont be coming back

    What a beautiful place to enjoy dinner! We enjoyed a speedy service with amazing food, and our kids absolutely loved the children’s playspace. Such a great place, we will definitely visit again!
