    Nice setting and atmosphere. The service was excellent and the food choice varied and of a high quality. The restaurant was busy but we didn’t have to wait long for drinks or the food to arrive. The food was delicious.

    Lovely venue for Sunday lunch. I had arancini to start which was lovely and I really enjoyed it. I then had a roast beef dinner which overall was nice but I wasn’t blown away by it. Gravy was excellent but I’d have preferred it on the side rather than on the plate as there was too much. Only three roasties isn’t enough for a roast dinner. Also although the veg was nice, two veg again seems a bit mean especially when the Yorkshire pudding is huge and takes up the whole plate so there isn’t room for anything else. Roast beef was pink and very thinly sliced but it was delicious and very tender. Dessert was spiced apple pie which was a small portion for £8 and although tasted nice, it just didn’t look appetising at all and came with a small scoop of ice cream. I enjoyed the meal overall but probably would t visit again as overall I didn’t feel it was value for money and I’ve had better elsewhere

    This was a lovely birthday meal for 2 family members. I mentioned this on arrival and, with minimal notice, the kitchen produced two Happy Birthday chocolate greetings plates with a piece of delicious cinder toffee. The meal generally was very well-prepared and tasty. Excellent negroni to start and good quality house wines.

    When visiting the White Horse it is always welcoming and you immediately feel at home. A roaring fire and lovely staff. We both had a large plate and a pudding and the food was excellent. We had a seafood pie and a beef and ale pie which was a special. The tastes were out of this world. For puddings we had a croissant and butter pudding with ice cream and a crème brûlée. Again they were so different to normal fayre and a real pleasure. The combination of lovely ambience and special food was a lovely experience.
