Enjoy an autumn pub outing with Hungry Horse

Summer might be all sunshine and sipping, but there are plenty of reasons to visit a Hungry Horse pub this autumn. At our pubs, the good times don’t stop when the hot weather does. In fact, we consider ourselves the perfect pitstop for a cosy autumn pub outing.

When the weather gets chilly, it’s time to raise a glass to cosy vibes and comforting classics. Toast to colder weather with frosty pints and warm up with a big plate of whatever you fancy. And where better than a Hungry Horse pub?

Our tasty menu has all your favourites, plus our bar is well-stocked to keep your thirst quenched. And with daily deals on offer come rain or shine, so you can sip and savour without the splurge.

Cosy food for colder days

Feeling the autumn chill? Ditch the kitchen and head inside one of our autumn pubs for a comforting meal you don’t have to cook. Our menu is packed with tasty plates to keep you toasty. Think stacked burgers full of flavour, perfect curries with all the trimmings or juicy cuts from the grill that are seared to smoky perfection. Whatever you fancy, it’s time to get feasting. Plus, we offer deals seven days a week, so it’s always a great time to stop by your local Hungry Horse this autumn. From Grill Monday through to Curry Wednesdays and our Special Sundays, expect big plates with big discounts.

Feed the family for less, treat the gang to the full three courses or push the boat out on your next date night. We don’t believe restaurant dining has to break the bank. So get ready to clean your plate without clearing your wallet.

Beer gardens to enjoy the last of the warm sunshine

It’s not just summer that’s made for al fresco feasting. Enjoy the last few days of the warm sunshine with an autumn outing in one of our beer gardens. Crisp fresh air? Check. Drinks on tap? Check. Warming plates to nibble with your nearest and dearest? Check.

Weather looking a little grey? No problem! We’ve got plenty of spots with covered seating to keep you dry, as well as heaters to keep you feeling snug.

Coming with the kids? The fresh air and outdoor space is the perfect way to let them blow off some steam or find a beer garden with a play area and let them swing and slide as you sip and savour

Think of us as your perfect pitstop

Who doesn’t love an autumn day outdoors? You’re not sweltering in a summer heatwave or braving the winter chill with a mountain of layers. It’s the perfect in-between weather.

Just sunny skies with crunchy leaves and the perfect excuse to slip on your fluffiest socks and cosiest boots.

So think of Hungry Horse as your perfect autumn pitstop. Whether you’re gearing up for a big day ahead, looking for a midday pause, or needing to recharge and unwind, we’ve got a menu for munching and a bar stocked with your favourites.

It’s a time to feel as snug as a bug in our autumn pubs. A Hungry Horse pub, that is.

How to spend an autumn day

Pick a pumpkin or two

Pumpkin picking has become a popular autumn activity for families, offering outdoor fun and a seasonal charm that's perfect for making memories. The family-run Pick Your Own experience is nestled in the beauty of the Nottinghamshire countryside. A short drive away is the Water’s Edge pub. It's a short walk from both the city centre and Nottingham Castle, plus you can enjoy waterside views from the beer garden and let kids explore the outdoor play area.

Coastal walks in the cold

Beach days aren’t just for the summer. An autumn visit means you get to enjoy the best of the beach without the summer crowds. Clacton Beach boasts the best of the traditional seaside, with a sandy shore and classic pier. It wouldn’t be a trip to the beach without fish and chips and The Roaring Donkey is a great spot to check out for a tasty meal and refreshing sip of something special. There's also Sky Sports and TNT Sports on screens for sports fans, plus an outdoor play area for little ones.

Enjoy a spooky ghost tour

With such a rich history, England’s packed with spooky stories and creepy corners. Warwick is a town steeped in history, and a fair share of spooky tales too! Warwick Castle was originally built by William the Conqueror in 1068, and is said to be haunted by many ghosts, including a large black dog with glowing red eyes and a foaming mouth. Warwick also hosts plenty of walking ghost towns around the town too, so you can discover history and haunts at every turn. If you're looking for somewhere to refuel, the Unicorn is just a short drive away. Tasty menu, tipples on tap, and there’s even a Wacky Warehouse indoor play for families.

Crisp walks around London parks

Let’s face it, the capital is pretty special all year round but it’s a sight to see in autumn. The gorgeous choice of green spaces are great for long walks, plus you can walk along the river for some waterside calm. The Honeycombe is just a short walk from Hounslow Central tube station, so it's a short journey into the buzz of the capital. Plus, there's all the latest sporting action on screens, as well as a cashless pool table for some friendly competition.

The Hardy Pick in Sheffield has live sports on screens, as well as outdoor play, plus Hungry Horse's classic menu and drinks selection to keep everyone happy. It's in a prime location for lovers of the great outdoors, with the Peak District National Park just a short drive away. You can also venture a little further to Chatsworth House, a true autumn gem surrounded by a 105-acre garden and an 1,822-acre park that is bursting with seasonal colour for an autumn stroll or stop by in November for the opening of their show-stopping Christmas market.
