The last and busiest of Bedford pubs we tried yesterday. It has quite a large car park, that was completely full. Seemingly, most people were there for a Sunday evening quiz, which certainly started off quite difficult - what year did Pete Sampras first win the Wimbledon title? Food looked quite ordinary. Beers were Wells Eagle IPA & Bombardier & an unimaginative Courage Best (brewed in Bedford don't you know) as a guest. The interior is large and bright. It clearly appeals to a wide range of society, from students to 30-50 somethings.

We have been to the White Horse twice, the first time we had lamb shank. It was dreadfull! Pre-cooked and frozen portions served with peas and potatoes in almost half an inch of gravy.
A year later we tried them again and had the special, fish and chips. Again, cheap frozen fillets on the small size and possibly pre-cooked frozen tastless but chunky chips. Would I go again ? No.

I really rate this pub. Friendly landlord & staff who seem to do loads for charity. Some of the best beer in Bedford! No guest ale on last time I was here but that's a small thing really.

It may be a bit too modern inside for some, but there are plenty of olde-worlde pubs around with so-so beer. Give me a good pint at the White Horse anytime.

Bland decor, a bit like drinking in an airport bar. Beer is usually reasonably looked after with at least one guest ale on. As others have said, not the best pub in town, but by no means the worst either.

Lack of real pub charm about it but not a bad pub. Beer was of a decent standard but the place suffers from wooden floor and fake beam syndrome.
