Food Quality

Pros:

  • "The roast tasted great and beef and lamb meals were really tender."
  • "The food was amazing quality and the staff were extremely helpful."
  • "Great food but awful portion sizes. For £25 I had the sea bass, tasted great but it’s one of those places that plates your food up all fancy and gives you hardly anything."
  • "Amazing atmosphere and service! This place has such a lovely buzz within. I had a roast beef dinner and a couple of drinks. You have to try the food - it is to die for."
  • "The food for the party was excellent and speaking to others there for Sunday lunch there was nothing but praise for the food."
  • "Outstanding flavours for me. Delicious fish n chips and mushy peas."
  • "Attended a private party here on Sunday outside in the garden. What a beautiful setting lots of which was covered against the weather. The food for the party was excellent and speaking to others there for Sunday lunch there was nothing but praise for the food."
  • "The BEST roast I have ever had! The veg was all delicious, fresh and flavourful."

Cons:

  • "I ordered two burgers, and i waited 45 minutes for them, hoping they would be good. They were both burned and overcooked, resulting in a dry burger."
  • "We recently came to the White horse, to celebrate our youngest daughters 21 birthday. We Weren't disappointed as it was a lovely evening, the food was very nice and the service from the staff was very good and welcoming."
  • "Entering the White Horse, we were met with the friendly staff and a booming fireplace. Their Sunday lunch menu is simple with the staples (beef, pork, chicken) and a vegetarian option. We were slightly let down by the meat which comes as a 'cube' per se."
  • "Really nice place, however this piece of chicken with a small amount of oven cooked veg cost £14:50!? Very disappointed, was hoping for slightly larger portions for that price."
  • "Usually a really good experience but on this visit the wait was very long, which isn’t that bad, however when the food arrived my potato’s were cold and my pan fried cod had limp unappealing skin."
  • "Good pub with great food and nice beers. Lovely decor and real fire, although a little chilly by the front door. Menu wasn’t big but food was hearty and good quality."
  • "The food was terrible. I had chicken fajitas and the chicken was so overcooked/reheated that it was so dry I couldn’t eat it. It looked the same as a wooden chopping board that had been put in the dishwasher every day for a few years."
  • "Very good food. Nice atmosphere. But sadly very small portions, which was disappointing considering they are on the pricey side... we all left hungry. Quite disappointing :("
