Pub of the Season
Summer Pub of the Season Presentation
The Horn Inn, Messingham
Our Pub of the Season award for Summer 2015 went to the
Horn Inn in Messingham. This open-plan village
local has been refurbished to a high standard and
opened up again for business on 8th April this year after
a period of closure.
The pub is leased from Enterprise Inns by licensee
Adam Kaye, who also runs two other pubs - the Blue
Bell in Gringley-on-the-Hill and the White Swan at Blyth.
Manageress at the Horn Inn is Kate Boswell, who
offers Black Sheep Best Bitter as a stock real ale at the
pub, plus up to five rotating guest real ales and a real
cider. Recent guest beers have included Black Sheep
Velo, Salopian Darwin's Origin, Theakston XB and
Adnams Lighthouse and Broadside.
The Horn Inn has an extensive food menu
comprising pub classics and gastro dishes, all home-cooked
to a high standard. Meals are available
lunchtime and evenings from 12-2.30pm and 6pm-9pm
Monday to Friday, 12-3pm and 6pm-9pm on
Saturday, and between 12-6pm on Sunday.
The pub hosts a cocktail night on Thursday from
6 pm, and on Sunday evenings there's a popular quiz,
with cheese and biscuits provided at half time, and
winner takes all pot.
It's good to see the Horn Inn thriving again, and we
congratulate Kate and all Horn Inn staff on their award.
