Review on Black Boys Inn
For nearly 500 years, The Black Boys Inn at Hurley has provided invaluable sustenance for travellers. In former times, they would arrive on horseback or by water (the River Thames is a five-minute stroll from the pub), but these days they come in their droves using more modern methods of transport. The interiors have been renovated creating a stylish pub/restaurant with rooms, and it now has a well-deserved reputation for both its food and wine.
The kitchen puts its faith in fresh locally sourced ingredients that kick off with sea bream escebeche, micro cress, and beetroot or foie gras terrine served with brioche and orange marmalade. Main courses on offer are dishes in the shape of confit duck leg, new potatoes and French beans or from the sea, whole Dover sole, buttered new potatoes, baby leaves and herb oil. To finish there's Michael's Grandma's bread and butter pudding, paired with pistachio ice cream or saffron poached pear, pumpernickel and clotted cream.
There's an excellent wine menu to accompany the food and a cosy lounge with a wood burning stove for a pre or post dinner drink. During summer months guests can enjoy al fresco dining in their beautiful garden.
