    Exceptional dining experience, however, they definitely up-charge for the historical significance of the restaurant. 2 people dining, 1 drink each, chowder & salad for apps, 2 entrees with 1 desert was $210 w/ tip. The food & service was very good & I would highly recommend it if you are not concerned about price.

    We were visiting Newport and we always try to make it to White Horse Tavern on our visit with friends. The experience was amazing and the food was absolutely fantastic as always. We had a wonderful waitress who also made our visit extremely special! We would definitely recommend the restaurant to anyone who wants to go.

    Everything was tasty, the service polite but not quite warm. The restaurant was fascinating and it’s history being the reason I chose to visit. However, other than dining inside there was little connection or recognition of its history.
