The Black Boy Inn - Menu

Fantastic place! I enjoyed a gluten-free bun and fries for dinner, and they also offered gluten-free toast for breakfast.

I enjoyed a delightful roast lamb dinner, ending with a delicious lemon tart. While they don’t have a separate gluten-free menu, they do provide an allergen book.

Was very busy here but service was still great, really old and interesting inside. The black boy pie was absolutely delicious, but very hot so be warned if you're hungry! Will definitely be coming back, it's also apparently nice to stay in.

This restaurant offers an excellent culinary experience. The menu is impressive and the portions are generous. The staff is warm and friendly, making it a truly enjoyable visit. After exploring the area, you can take a seat and place your order at the bar. You’re sure to love it!

Lovely 500 year old inn serving a good range of ales, beers, wines and spirits. Great selection of food, both full meals and lighter bites. Really sorry that we didn't have time to eat at leisure but will definitely be back to enjoy an inn which gives the full experience of its 500 years in business. Brilliant.

The menu featured a wide variety of appetizers, mains, and desserts, all of which were well-prepared. Our meals arrived piping hot, beautifully presented, and tasted fantastic. However, I should warn you to wear clothing with a bit of stretch, as the portions are quite generous. Overall, the meals provided excellent value for money. I highly recommend this spot for either a casual drink or a fantastic meal in a lovely historical setting.

We went with a group of non-GF folks for Easter Sunday lunch. The staff was knowledgeable about allergies and ingredients, and they had a full list of allergens present in every item on the menu. I let the server know we had a “celiac order” before we began. My (celiac) kiddo and I both enjoyed our meals and neither of us had any reaction, allowing me to confidently recommend this restaurant. She had cheese fries with a side of bacon (it was an enormous serving), and I had the vegetarian nut bake.

I went to dinner at this restaurant based on a recommendation from a coworker, and I must say I was very impressed. The staff were incredibly friendly and attentive, even though they were busy. I started with the chicken liver pâté, and I was not disappointed—it was one of the best I’ve ever had. I then tried the seafood gnocchi, which was a new experience for me, and if I ever find myself back in the area, I will definitely return for more. I might even consider staying nearby just to enjoy the food every night!

We discovered the Black Boy after not being able to secure a table at our first choice, and what a wonderful surprise it turned out to be! We ended up dining here three times in six days, including for a Sunday roast, where they kindly allowed me to bring my own precooked Yorkshire puddings. The staff is very knowledgeable about gluten-free options, offering several safe dishes to enjoy. Each time we visited, we filled out a form to inform the kitchen about any items to avoid. They even have a separate fryer for chips, which was fantastic.
