To see what we're serving, please take a look at our menus here.

Some of our chicken products are certified as Halal. However, we do not buy them because they are halal, but because the production facility we purchase them from is certified halal. The packaging that the product comes in carries the appropriate symbol. All our suppliers must comply with current EU legislation and best practice regarding animal welfare, which includes stunning before slaughter.

Due to the UK’s strict licensing laws, Greene King as a company operates a proof of age scheme and track attempts by underage drinkers to order alcoholic drinks. Customers are not served alcohol without their current forms of ID and as a responsible retailer we are extremely strict on identifying underage drinkers. Our company policy is that the only acceptable forms of ID are a valid UK passport or a valid full UK driving licence. All House Managers and their staff have been instructed to check ID of all customers purchasing alcohol who appear to be under the age of 21 years old. If there is any doubt about the age of the customer, or the customer does not produce ID when requested, our staff have the right to refuse service and may ask the customer to leave the premises.

Our Christmas menus will be up on the website at some point in August.

Our serving times can vary, so please either give us a call on +44 01977 602 516 or check here.

Our e-Cigarette policy is as follows: An electronic cigarette is an electrical device which simulates the act of tobacco smoking. Due to their similarity in appearance to tobacco based product and the confusion and potential upset their use may cause to non-smoking customers, Hungry Horse has decided that use of electronic cigarettes will be prohibited under all circumstances inside our locations. However, all Hungry Horse pubs have designated smoking areas outside.
