We are regulars and normally have a great experience! But today unfortunately, (we assume due to it being Father’s Day) service was poor, we waited half an hour in between courses, which could have been longer if we hadn’t have prompted an under pressure member of staff! Then requested cutlery when the mains came as previous cutlery was taken away with starters only to sit and wait to be forgotten again whilst our food sat in front of us! Also advertised a free gift for dads, however, nothing was mentioned and we decided not to bother asking as this may have caused another long wait.

I had the Horn Burger which was ok. Should have contained cheese. If it was there I must have missed it. Staff were ok but recovering from having a wake that day. It was an ok experience but could have been better.

I have eaten here quite a few times, unfortunately this time the food was of a very poor standard, bar staff were polite, waiter knew very little on how to treat customers. HSB real ale was as usual the best but very pricey.

Food was delicious and fresh but service wasn’t great. The waitress was lovely but seemed like she was inexperienced and on a different planet. The pub itself is in need of some TLC.

Nice pub open fire. Helpful and friendly staff. Food very nice. The only disappointing part is there were 3 of us. We all fancied the items on the 2 for 14.95 lunch menu. Sadly,only 2 of us could eat from it. Has to be 2,4,6,8 people etc. Perhaps they could adjust the price for any odd number 3,5 etc, as long as there is a minimum of 2 eating from it. Otherwise a nice meal.

Nice meal. Bit squashed on table 17. My sister in law and myself had our little dogs with us, and it was just a bit cramped. I must admit I didn’t say we had two dogs with us so in future I shall tell them when I book, that I don’t want to be up in that section again

After numerous visits to The Horns I have never had a bad meal, until we visited on 22nd Jan 2019 to celebrate my daughters birthday. We were a party of 5 (3 adults and 2 children) I ordered the Beef Wellington from the Specials Menu and when it came it was the large portion I would normally expect from The Horns but the quality and taste was very poor, the beef was not of great quality, the pate used on the beef was just something pre purchased and looked like it had just been plopped on the meat and gain the warmth from the meat - but it was horrid. The pastry was ok but the Diane Sauce that was advertised with it did not complement it at all and ruined it. The veg was dry and tasteless also. My daughters burger and chips arrived and the bun was way too big for the burger and she said her chips were not cooked very well. My son had the chicken curry and although it ate what he could and enjoyed it when I tried it it seemed very bland. I cant believe the meal was so bad as I normally really enjoy my meals here, its our local and would always recommend it - I would think twice about coming back to eat, I'm disappointed.

A lovely evening celebrating a birthday. Food was delicious, lovely and hot. We had to wait a while, but the pub was busy, we were told when we ordered that there was a bit of a wait. Staff were friendly and attentive. Will come again.

The meals we ordered weren’t particularly good. The battered fish was over cooked, the breaded mushrooms were over cooked and the raspberry pavlova was just a small bought meringue covered in far too much whipped runny cream. Not nice at all. The service was good though

Last minute booking for our group as wanted to try somewhere different for our Christmas dinner this year. Service was great fast and very professional. was great to see an actual manager working alongside the staff even the dirty stuff. Food was amazing. I tried something new and out there called the American style waffle burger which at first I didn't really know what to expect. when it came out of the kitchen it just took me back to san Francisco. It tasted like I was on holiday again and brought back great memories the rest of the party loved the food and prices are very reasonable including drinks. Patricia behind the bar very fast and efficient and so polite and helpful with difficult requests and even offering to bring drinks over as the barrels had to be changed and didn't want to be waiting while the food was getting cold. Overall a very enjoyable evening and this is one establishment I will be being returning for another visit and one of those fantastic burgers. Thank you horns inn and all your staff for our very enjoyable evening and making our Christmas dinner night out a remarkable one. From All The Switchboard Team at Southampton General Hospital

We went for my dads birthday. I have never eaten in The Horns before and it is walking distance from me, so I really do not have any excuse. I had to call them twice to add another person to the table and they were so lovely about it. Our table was ready and waiting. It was busy, so would recommend booking. The food was delicious and there was so much of it. I will definitely eat here again. Thank you

Lively place with welcoming staff. Menu very good and varied. Food delicious and good quality, if a little expensive for pub grub. Portion sizes were too large which we felt spoilt the enjoyment of the meal. We would happily go back, but would share dishes next time.

The main meals were generous portions. We weren't told in advance that the kitchen closed at 9:30pm. When puddings arrived they were disappointing. The atmosphere was that this is very much a locals pub and made us feel uncomfortable. Staff were friendly.

The Food was fantastic when it eventually arrived - we were warned there would be a little wait, but when you know you have three large table bookings it would be a good idea to get extra staff on? The poor waiting staff were run off their feet! Our table was booked for 7.15 and we did not get our main courses until 9pm! It would not stop me going back as the food quality and portions where amazing value for money. Keep up the good work guys
