Hungry Horse

  • I went to the mill on the soar last night.
    Was a disaster. Took 45mins+ for the food to come (it wasn't that busy), our side of onion rings came first AND the curry wasn't heated throughout :(

    This seems to be a common complaint... I wonder if it is worth mentioning to HHHQ?

    If you have a Brewers Fayre nearby....

    D'oh... Just realised that pretty much my nearest pub is a Brewers Fayre. I knew it sounded familiar... thanks for the recommendation.
  • Avoid hungry horse unless you don't mind eating cheap microwave meals for a meal out!

    That was my experience too - not going back in a hurry !
  • The first and last time I went to a Hungry Horse the food was atrocious, even my jacket potato was raw in the middle and microwaved so it was all soggy.


    Most of the big chain pub restaurants serve ready meals, and this is how they can do the amazing cheap deals like 2 meals for £10.
    It keeps the costs low, food is ready quickly and you don't need a chef, or to cook from scratch.


    Firms like Brake Brothers who supply restaurants also do ready made curries, pasta meals, desserts just about everything you can think of, all ready in a flash in the microwave. I prefer to eat somewhere where it's cooked fresh to order and eat out less.
  • The food does take ages to come out and then its not the best, probably one to avoid repeating

    I wonder if someone from HHHQ has been reading our little thread.

    I went to HH again today, and had Chicken Tikka Masala. It was searingly hot. :)

    Still can't fault it for 80p more than a McD's Value meal.

    Gordons G&T, too. :beer:

    One of the best I went to was the Hungry Horse, Bath Road, Reading. However the other one located near Reading we found a big disappointment.
  • We have a lovely HH near us, never had a bad meal and they sell my favourite wine at a reasonable price.
