"I just wanted to say thank you for accommodating us all on Saturday evening. Coming in a very large group with a lot of children having nothing booked they made us have a lovely experience and the food was beautiful! Lovely staff lovely place. I wish I lived here as I would love to come all the time! If I’m ever in the area again I would definitely call back for some very good food"

"This is a great place for some real food, good food, service, and beer, we booked at short notice and were accommodated. This was one of the best pub meals I have had in a long time. It was really great meals all cooked fresh, and I had to wait a bit longer, but it was well worth the wait, and I highly recommend you check it out if you're in the area ."
Martin Davies
"I enjoyed my visit to the Coach and Horses. The food was very good and the draught beers were well kept. My only peeve would be having the television volume on, I really feel that it kills any atmosphere."
