"The jewel in the crown of this smart 15C coaching inn is its lovely garden and terrace – closely followed by its caramelised rice pudding! Ambitious modern dishes are made up of many elements and service comes courtesy of a smart, structured team." - Michelin Inspector

superb meal at a truly gastro pub with a wide selection of dishes, we had fillet steaks and salmon fillet and both were delicious. we had a share platter of desserts as we couldn't choose and loved each and every one. it was a true dining experience

Wonderful architecture and setting. For folk who choose not to drink, the selection very poor and child like - needs more thought to reflect the clientele and setting. The food is amazing - a taste sensation and well worth the trip over. Highly recommended

The Bay Horse in Hurworth is a gem . The setting is lovely . The design of the restaurant is elegant and is matched by the quality of the food, which is excellent. The accompanying wine choices are very good. The staff are friendly and service is good.

The most delicious food, a nice fire, good wine and attentive service. We have a member of the family who has a number of allergies and they did everything in their power to accommodate. It is not easy to do but we really appreciated the effort. Gorgeous evening and we will be back.

Booked a table for Sunday lunch at the last minute and managed to get a table for 4pm in the walled garden. It’s dog friendly so took our boy Shelby with us. Table was waiting under a lovely parasol in a quiet corner of the garden. A few tables had people eating a drinking. It was a lovely warm day and the overall atmosphere and experience was top notch! Lovely warm handmade breads with whipped butter, a fabulous Aperol Spritz and Sunday roasts that were well cooked and very tasty! Dessert was wonderful too! £39.50 for 3 courses and worth every penny! Staff very efficient, friendly and polite! 10/10 from us.

Been there twice with colleagues, everyone loved their food, from starter to dessert. service is really good compared to other restaurants I've been to in this country, a bit on the pricey side tho.

Superb. The Chef is a young genius and one to keep an eye on. The lay out of the restaurant is more laid back and almost pub like but don't be fooled the kitchen is whipping up pure magic! Everything that we ate was superbly cooked with/from fresh local produce. Even the bread basket was steaming from the oven. mmmmmm bread! I opted for the Pan-fried Cod with Shellfish Oil, Shellfish Gnocchi, Creamed Clams, Sauce Gribiche, Roast Potato & Chive Salad - BOOM! It was presented beautifully and if you eat with your eyes I should have been full before I'd even started. Service was both informed and friendly, we were offered tap water and our wine glasses topped up nicely. With the price tag at the end of this meal I can honestly say it was one of the best quality, bang for your buck jobs i have ever had. I WILL be back!

four of us had a fabulous meal here, I hope The Belly Pork stays on the menu forever. The service was first class, the wine waiter was quick on his toes and needed to be as we really guzzled the Rose wine, which was delicious. The atmosphere was low key, but we were able to laugh and chat without feeling the table next door were involved with us. The quality of the food was excellent, we were quite happy that the chef had been awarded a michelin star, his creations deserved one ( or two) without being "too up themselves" all in all a great night out with friends. Bill was not too hideous, @80 quid per couple, but we did splash out.
