paulof horsham left this review about The Horse & Groom

On the road leading to & from the White Horse, you'll first see the car park and then there's a few benches outside, these popular with smokers, as the aroma will confirm. Enter to a small bar which seems crowded just with half a dozen chatty locals (as ever, one is chattier than the rest of them put together). The saloon does extend into a bit more space, and there's a dining room to the right.

Beer-wise, you get two local ales (a Best and an APA), these priced at just £3.50. The lagers, especially 1664 seem more popular, though it's notable that two of these are from ABK, which isn't common, while a couple more taps are pouring Brooklyn beers, though I doubt any of the regular crowd are up for the Stonewall Session IPA, judging by the overheard conversation.

Worth looking in if you're heading to or from the hill.

Quinno _ left this review about The Horse & Groom

Substantial and mildly upmarket place in the backstreets (which I guess was the centre of the village, many moons ago). There’s a dining room on the right and a bar to the left which is decorated in ‘farmhouse lite’; scrubbed wood tables, stove, old pump clips on beams. An oddity were the boxes of trivia cards on each table, which to be fair helped pass the time a bit. The garden is sizeable and pretty, looks a good bet for the summer months Two cask on over three pumps, Sharps Doom Bar and Twisted Three and Six (NBSS 3.5 – in good nick but a pretty bland brew) which was labelled as an austerity wallet-buster or something and to be fair it was pretty cheap. Polite service and the place is GBG'23 listed. Tidy pub and the missus was rather keen.

Just a quick pint, then I'm off left this review about Horse & Groom

Quite a substantial side-street pub, with a refurbished bar featuring an attractive mixture of modern / traditional furniture and decor. Separate restaurant. Alfred Room in an outbuilding. Small patio. Beer garden to rear of car park. Two real ales on handpump: Doom bar and Butcombe Christmas Steps (£3.30).
