    My wife and I made a reservation after some research on the establishment. We expected this to be a very nice experience. We had no idea that our evening would be so special and memorable. We were seated on the second floor directly in front of the large fireplace. Our server was fantastic. He was courteous, prompt, attentive, and delightful to talk to. And then the food was served...... Wow! My complete compliments go to the chef. Absolutely delightful. Needless to say that if you are in the area, this is a must experience to believe stop. Yes, it may be a bit pricey, but completely worth every penny. Thank you to the entire staff of White Horse Tavern.

    Perfect little casual lunch spot to kick off the new year! We loved our spot at the bar and the staff was so friendly! The kale salad with avocado is so yummy - paired with the baked clams it was the perfect lunch for a catch up with a good friend.
