Horton Inn - East Dorset

Lovely clean inviting pub , staff very friendly helpful and attentive . Starter and main meals were lovely with good size portions. The only downside is the deserts which are lovely need to be cheaper or bigger as not value for money. But the rest of the evening was lovely so well worth a visit

I visited the Horton Inn earlier this month with my wife and my mother. We had driven past on many occasions but had not ventured in. My wife is diagnosed as Coeliac so we spoke with the member of staff when ordering our food. We were assured that the kitchen could produce gluten free meals. The meal arrived and was ok. When we got home my wife was violently ill. This could not have been caused by a slight cross contamination it was caused by my wife being given a large quantity of gluten. When my wife recovered she emailed Horton Inn and advised of our experience. Sadly she has not received a response. This is very disappointing. If you are Coeliac or know someone who is please avoid the Horton Inn.

Scruffy, in need of updating.Staff all young very nice and helpful. Pretty location. Please keep dogs to the bar area,ruined the evening with barking in the restaurant.

The same girl then served another adjacent take and managed to spill a large glass of wine everywhere, yes an accident but instead of putting the wine on a tray it would have been easier to carry it. The wine went everywhere, all over our clothes and even though the staff tried to clear it all up they made a very poor job we were told that in compensation of the red wine on our clothes they would offer our lunch free of charge big deal when it was 2 sandwiches and 2 soft drinks vs £100 of clothes. I will not be returning..

Arrived for Sunday lunch. Menu was available on the table as we arrived. Though the board with specials was still dated Jan 25th! Online menu still advertising the Autumn Menu! After a round of drinks consumed we finally made our order. After an hour and...
