Got the famous roll & its pretty average tbh also got a BLT which wasn't anything to right home about , wouldn't go out my way to go back Horn used to be a institution whilst on a road trip. The packed out were always order of the day, so headed there today as was headed south from Aberdeen. Walked into the restaurant to be greeted by the same decor as it was many many years ago. Staff were friendly and took our orders within seconds of being through the door. So and black pudding roll with a side order of fizzy juice was my breakfast.......paid £8.60. Sat at the table and 2 minutes later breakfast was taken over. 4 fatty bits of and a floppy bit of black pudding were nestled inside the bun. What has happened to the famous Horn rolls??? Used to be half a pig inside the rolls!!! Seems as though they are living on the past reputation to get people in. Prices definitely do not reflect on the quality or quantity of food you get. Very disappointed indeed...... Came here today for a late breakfast and had a great time! The Horn has a little gift shop at the front where you can get some souvenirs and little gifts, as well as strawberries and ice cream. The cafe at the back has lovely options of sweets. Their are delicious and really well served. The dishes came out super quickly. The coffee and the tea were good as well. The staff was friendly and welcoming. Great place overall! What a find. This is such a popular spot and really does serve the best in the world. Add some curly fries and rocky road and you’re good to continue on your road trip! So there we were, bombing down the motorway, stomachs growling like angry badgers, when out of the corner of our eyes we spotted it: a cow. On the roof. Not a real one (sadly), but a life-sized bovine perched proudly above what can only be described as the holy grail of spontaneous roadside decisions. Curiosity (and hunger) won. We pulled in. The sign in the window screamed “BEST BAPS IN THE WORLD” — which, frankly, is a bit like someone shouting they’re the best lover in Europe. Bold, questionable, and only one way to find out. First of all, the bap. A soft, fresh, buttery bread cloud that hugged the like it knew it was part of something special. The kind of bap that makes supermarket die of shame. Then the bacon. Not flabby. Not burnt. Not that sad, translucent business you get from hotel buffets. No, this was deep-fried glory. Crispy on the edges, chewy in the middle, and seasoned by what can only be described as divine intervention. We’re talking a generous pile, too — not two lonely rashers pretending to be friends. This was a crowd. A smoky, crunchy, joyful crowd. The staff were lovely — the sort of people who’d make you a cup of tea even if you told them you hated tea, just to convince you otherwise. One even gave us a knowing look when we ordered two baps like, “Yeah. You’re in for it now.” And they were right. Inside, the place was an 80s time capsule. Somewhere between a truck stop, your nan’s living room, and a diner where Pat Butcher would’ve felt completely at home. Think checked curtains, orange tiles, and laminated menus stuck to the walls with the sort of optimism only pre-internet design had. One small, baffling detail: for a place that proudly called itself a milk bar, there were no milkshakes. None. Not even a chalkboard cow doodle saying “coming soon.” We squinted at every menu and fridge like suspicious raccoons, but no dice. Honestly, we respect the commitment to confusion. They did, however, have a gift shop full of local knick-knacks, oatcakes, and the sort of shortbread tins that survive in households for generations. We left with a belly full of and a wooden keyring shaped like a sheep. Final verdict: If you ever find yourself on that stretch of motorway, and you see a cow on a roof — stop. Pull over. Embrace the madness. Forget Michelin stars, this place serves joy in a bap and nostalgia in a mug. It’s the kind of random, delicious chaos that makes road trips worth taking. 11/10. Would get lost just to find it again. Has to be the worst steak pie i have had. The meat unable to cut, tough, and portion as per photo, minuscule, and taken after one piece of meat eaten. Very disappointed 😞 will visit again to see if any improvement. A greasy spoon cafe just perfect. Good food and good amount. Decent price for it too. Only discovered this place a few months ago and now been about 5 times. It's an hour's drive from my home. We will be back again. Felt like a call-back to diner cafés of the 70s (but in a good way!). Had a delicious and egg roll :) Plenty of tasty homebakes too Website change monitoring Monitor any webpage for changes – get instant email alerts when prices drop, new jobs are posted, products come back in stock, or competitors update their sites.
