Jackie Horner Pub & Restaurant is a corner pub and grill on Helen Joseph Road in Bulwer, Durban. The venue combines a traditional English pub style with a food-focused restaurant, offering an easygoing setting for meals, drinks and social gatherings.

Its menu centres on affordable pub cuisine prepared with a creative approach. The selection includes familiar pub favourites, grill dishes, seafood, steaks, burgers, pies, platters, baskets and nachos. Sunday-style roast and braai food also form part of the venue’s offering, giving the menu a broad choice for casual lunches, dinners and shared meals.

Entertainment is an important part of the venue’s character. The programme includes quiz events, karaoke, live performances, music on the deck and live screenings of rugby and football. The pub also hosts braai-style gatherings, with facilities and selected accompaniments provided for the format. These activities make the venue suited to groups looking for food alongside a social evening rather than a purely quiet dining experience.

A daily happy hour is listed from late afternoon into early evening. Food specials and entertainment are arranged across the week, with seafood, steak, main-meal, platter and braai-focused themes forming part of the schedule. Since event programming can change, the venue’s direct contact number is the best point for confirming a particular evening’s offering.

The outside deck provides an additional seating area for meals, drinks and live entertainment. Indoor pub seating and large-screen sport viewing add to the venue’s practical appeal for casual meet-ups, shared meals and functions. Jackie Horner Pub & Restaurant suits diners seeking straightforward pub and grill food, a relaxed social atmosphere and a calendar that combines quizzes, music, karaoke, sport and food-led gatherings.
