In The Hobbit, after leaving The Shire Bilbo and the Dwarves pass through a region where "Inns were less frequent". This suggests that there were more than just The Forsaken Inn on the road passed Bree.

They're not mentioned in LoTR because Strider led the four hobbits off the road or perhaps because they had been abandoned in the eighty years since Bilbo's journey.
