Reviews of The White Horse

I would give the place 2* however the food was good so it will bring the average up. However, the staff were really not keen to serve you nor were they friendly or Knowledgeable about their dishes. The atmosphere was completely dead! We were the only people there and it still took a long time for us to be looked after. The food was tasty and the portions were massive! However, I wouldn't return here again.

Great pub! Nice warm welcome from the staff and the few locals who were there. Good selection of ale and if the breakfast was anything to go by the food is good and extremely good value.

Very friendly owners and staff; great atmosphere and truly exceptional Thai chicken curry. Good chat with some of the locals - we will definitely be returning next time we're in Dorset. This pub is a real gem!

Out in the sticks but on the Cask Marque Ale Trail and deservedly so. Lunches are popular and well presented. The chef (and landlord) is not renowned for being garrulous, but the staff are affable enough.

Wonderful quirky, atmospheric pub , very friendly owners . We loved the free cheese and biscuits on the bar and had the best Moroccan vegetable tagine of our lives. Well worth a visit, great beer too !

Great food, atmosphere and local ales

P. B.

The best pub in the area. Absolutely superb food - the perfect blend of chef par excellence and presentation, without losing sight of the fact that some people are hungry, and want a proper portion. So there may be some fancy trimmings and sauces (which suits me), but you can equally choose their fish and chips, which is unbeatable. Beer - three perfectly kept ales, all tasty with good hops, or more malted if you prefer, ranging from 3.8% to 5%, and a good selection of wines. I don't do lager so I can't comment, but the locals look happy on it. Finally, the pub is run by a charming couple - Louise is front of house, and James is the man behind the excellent food - they both make you feel very welcome, and nothing is too much trouble. Summary : this place is responsible for our best meals out this year. We've always been able to get a table, but it maybe a good idea to reserve first.

I went to The White Horse on Saturday with my Grandparents and we were utterly charmed by the place. It is a pub I have driven past many times and have always discounted, but I understand it is under new management and I'll definitely be going back. The food was served quickly and was creative and tasty. The chef stopped by to chat to us and told us about the providence of the venison. I was particularly impressed by the puddings - which were not only homemade, but came with homemade ice-cream. The dishes are high class, with a bit more panache than your average pub grub. Best of all was the excellent atmosphere provided by the charming bar staff. They were very genuine in their friendliness and service. I'll be going back.

Great village pub that can easily be overlooked. Always a good range of guest beers and very good food created by landlord and chef James. Always a warm welcome from the friendly staff. (The lounge bar photo is not correct ).

B. C.

Great food, beers on tap and outstanding chocolate brownies! Nice secluded beer garden too (covered and uncovered) for an outdoor drink

We chanced upon this pub and now it's fast becoming a favourite. Almost reluctant to write a post because we don't want too many to discover it! Had a lovely meal and would say the food is definitely a cut above the average pub fodder. It serves a great mixture of locally sourced, pub favourites, and also more refined, "foodie" dishes. Liked the fact that there was a separate dining area, but also plenty of room to go for a drink if you didn't fancy eating. Nice beer garden too. We are definitely going back - and will be seeking out the home made burgers which were first class.

Newly opened a few weeks ago: We went for a meal and it was great! The homemade steak and kidney pie was simply deliciuos and the treakle sponge with custard to die for! The hosts were super friendly and helpful. We highly recommend the place and hope to stay there during our next visit.

Very cosy atmospheric pub with good food and lovely friendly landlady who was kind enough to accommodate our whacky dietary needs. We'll definitely go back.

My Daughter recently had her wedding reception here I have to say Andy and Justine pulled out all the stops The staff were fantastic and nothing was too much trouble The value for money was fantastic and when we called in the pub the same service and value was great Definitely 5 stars for me Pam’s X

Nice Sunday lunch, good service by waitress, appear to have been charged for a couple of the locals drinks, check your tab before paying

There were 22 of us staying at The Grange about 1 mile away. The Half Moon Pub at the end of the drive were clearly not interested in our business (the owner there is very abrupt and unwelcoming) so we tried the White Horse. James (the Chef) came and collected some of us in his car which was a really nice gesture. The pub, staff and food are all excellent and made us all feel so welcome. Thank you to James and the rest of the team at the White Horse for such a great experience on my 50th birthday. Kevin & Debbie

Great landlord's warm welcome. Good selection and quality beer and cider. Huge breakfast. Fantastic proper local.

J. “.

Delightful, roadside rustic pub with good outside space (which would be improved with a little more tlc). Good range of beers.

B. P.

I can only say that we were all very impressed with the food, two of us had Garlic & Rosemary Chicken, one that Home made Beef Burger, and one of us had Home made Sausages, the comments were Best Burger ever 10/10, really lovely chicken, fantastic saugers. If you would like to visit a pub that is a bit above the rest, has friendly staff, a good selection of beers and ciders, and great food, then try The White Horse you will not be disappointed. Bob Patrick a very satisfied customer that WILL be returning soon

A good solid Sunday lunch, nothing too fancy but v generous portions. Pretty workaday and rough and ready but friendly staff and locals. Only a couple of ales on tap but large selection of lagers.

J. B.

I've been to The White Horse just about every week for the past 9 years. Since James has taken over it has gone from strength to strength - food is his specialty, but he maintains an excellent beer selection of real ales, craft ales and lagers - and rings the changes often. Definitely worth a visit even if you are just passing.

What a great pub with its warm and friendly atmosphere...serves excellent food at reasonable prices and there is a good selection of beers. I recommend trying the new lunchtime menu for only £6.50 or treat yourself to a delicious evening meal...I have!!

A. T.

Fantastic food at reasonable prices, and beautiful pub. Owners also allowed us to overnight in our motorhome in the car park.

I arrived here by chance, needing a rest. I collapsed on their lawn feeling unwell. I found them most caring and helpful, Louise Palmer found me a nurse, among their clients, to check me over, and they called an ambulance to come. Meanwhile they supplied me with delicious hot home cooked soup, hot liquid honey and care. James Cole also found me a B.and B. for the night. Thank you both for looking after me. Janet Landau.

Friendly staff, tasty food. Menu missing a few pub staples (e.g. no burger) and no kids menu.

R. W.

A very nice spot of lunch today. We chose off the Pie Menu, perfect on a cold wet day.

R. K.

Rightmove removals moved customers from Derby and Nottinghamshire to this well managed complex, attention to detail just brings this former mill to life.
