Running Horse

rude staff as i did not know if had to order from table or bar when I called to speak to a young lady whom worked there I got eye rolled and she rudely waked off so I left also tables were disgusting and not kept up to scratch, dirty seats, food marks on wall. Will not be recommending. Disappointment really looked nice from out side shame its staff and grubby walls let it down

Hungry Horse food in a good setting. Big cheap meals, nice décor, several TVs dotted around showing football.
One of the better pubs in the area.

Always a place to stop while visiting friends in Bracknell. Loved the renovations the past year, interesting touch. Food is decent for the price, no complaints here.

DEAR SIR /​MADDAM
I am writing with regret about our dreadful experience at the RUNNING HORSE, HUNGRY HORSE, BRACKNELL .
We had booked a table for 10 about four weeks ago for the evening of the 26^th Nov 2011.
On arrival we found that our party size increased by two so we kindly informed the staff who gave snide comments and made us feel very uncomfortable so we didn’t say anything we then asked for the Christmas menu so we could order but was told that we had not booked a Christmas party, but we had as the table was laid in Christmas table cloth and crackers, and that we had to order from the regular menu again we didn’t complain .
We ordered our food in individual couples spending £20 per couple at a total of £240 for the whole group.
When our food arrived sausages were missing from two meals and chicken was missing of one mixed grill and one meal didn’t turn up at all when asked where our friends meal was and the fact that items were missing, the waiter was very quick in bringing the missing sausages out but our friend didn’t want to complain about the chicken as he feared it would be cooked in a rush and wouldn’t be cooked properly, with the missing meal we were told its coming and ten minutes later we asked again to be told the same then five minutes later we asked again to be told the chef had cooked it and we had it but as our friend had no plate in front of her it was very obvious to the eye that she had no said meal, then the waiter came back to us and told us that no meal was actually cooked and the chef was just starting to cook it at that same moment a waitress came out to say its done and she was bringing it out by now we had all well and truly finished our meals and getting fed up with the poor excuses .
So our friend and her partner went to complain as they ordered their food together only for the manager to tell her partner in a very rude and abrupt manner to go away as she will deal with our friend alone. So he left her to it she was offered a free dessert which was ok. The meal arrived ten minutes later considering we had now finished our meals 15 minutes ago and sitting with our empty plates in front of us then her meal arrived as soon as she finished they took her plate alone and dumped her dessert down as if that rectified their error. before all our plates were cleared but before they were cleared two waiters were arguing very loudly that they didn’t want to clear our table as there were three staff members just idly chatting behind the bar and again made us feel very uncomfortable then showing their frustration they came over and started to clear our table even though the three staff members stayed behind the bar. we waited 20 minutes for all our plates to be cleared before we could go and order our desserts. At this point the majority of our group were very disappointed and didn’t want to order anything else which comes down to a very bad experience at this this establishment. I asked to see the manager several times to no avail I then asked for the managers names and the address of head office instead the manager came over and asked for me to write down my details and told me I was being aggressive which was very embarrassing for me as I was being very calm and polite I wasn’t even drinking alcohol as I was driving. And found her remarks very very rude. Eevn though I had organised and booked the table the manager told me to stop being stupid as the friend had been given a free dessert but I nicely told her that that wasn’t the only error and that food was missing from several plates I did say it was brought out apart from the chicken but again very rudely she told me to stop being aggressive which I clearly wasn’t and that no one told her anything about missing items and it didn’t happen at this point I told her this is disgusting service accusing me of aggressive behaviour when I am point out our disappointing experience, she then took my details and still within ear shot told her colleague that stuff him we got their cash, at this point I told her to stick it in a calm and polite manner granted I should never have lowered my standard to her level, I pointed out that she could use customer service training and had no business as a manager making comments like that to make us look very bad and make her look good was not acceptable at which point she told me to get out, which I gladly agreed to being in the far corner with no way of exiting without waiting for my friends to move out of the way I was then threatened by the manageress she then said she was going to call the police over me which again was to make herself look she was in the right which was very wrong I asked her to call the police as they would see we were in the right and the victims in this whole matter but I didn’t want to get in an argument or I would have got very angry. Instead me and my fiancé left very

Another interesting Bracknell pub. This is from an old trip. Very local following which is a plus for me. Pub food with menu mainly fast food burgers etc. Great for people saving dineros.

Lots of food for the money, quality is okay to good. Generally microwave meals as is so prevalent is chain pubs. But this makes it very cheap for what you get.
Very good atmosphere for football games. Lots of locals, always a good sign. Good all round pub

This is now a Hungry Horse so it sells big plates of food for a good price, the lamb shank is great and the puddings are good.
You do get a lot of regulars in here as it is a pub as well and it gets very noisy at the weekends but during the week it is ok.
There is a lot of parking as long as there isnt a rugby match on as the rugby club is next door.
It is on a busy roundabout leading to Ascot so avoid it on Ascot week.
There is not much of an outside area to sit and drink and eat but there are a few tables and a smoking area.
