| Just in response to Thelonius_Monk, I visit the White Horse regularly and there have been no regulars barred for "remonstrating the teenagers" concerning the "curt manner" or "Townie management" of the pub. One person was barred for verbal abuse of a member of staff (when he was very drunk), one for starting a fight and another for using drugs. I think all these are valid reasons for barring, don't you? I personally think the pub is welcoming, the staff friendly, the food tasty (even if it is on the pricey side, but you have to pay for quality), and whilst drinks prices are high, it is in an affluent area, so who can blame a business for trying to capitalise on its target market? Overall, I feel it's been a great addition to the area since the refurbishment, and by far the nicest place to eat of an evening, and I will continue to visit. DatchworthMan - 30 Jun 2008 19:12 |
| i wouldnt say it was townie mangement as suggested before,but the staff were young but all very friendly and helpfull. My husband and I enjoyed a steak and the fish of the day which was very enjoyable. it was a shame about the weather as i would have loved to sit outside near the pond. I liked the selection of music and decor, but unfortunately didnt try any beers or wines so cant comment on them. but i had a good visit and would return when in the area lwatts - 31 Mar 2008 21:46 |
| went to white horse today for a lunch and walk (found it in a (somewhat dated)'pubwalk' guide); beer was good, decor good; food was quite pricey and was pass-able, not bad (steak overcooked but then that is easy to do); really disappointed however with fact that i had a dark budvar (as never seen it before) and discovered it was out of date. when i informed our server (the manager) he responded that by law they could serve the beer as it was past its 'best before' and not 'use by' date! not impressed that they will, knowingly, serve old, past-its-best beer and very unimpressed that they expected me to pay for it. poor. shame really as menu looked quite exciting... jambemin - 24 Mar 2008 18:13 |
| Went for meal tonight and well impressed by this place. Have been before but there has been a big improvement since. Beers are all Mc Mullens and vbery tasty as always. Staff were friendly and attentive even on this busy friday. Inside it is very nice with open fire but quite posh looking. It seems a lot more upper class than most pubs. Toilets very clean as is the whole place. Fodd was fantasic and can't be faulted. You do pay the upper price bracket here but if you only visit now and then it is well worth it. 9 out of 10 and I don't say that very often. NeilA - 15 Feb 2008 21:28 |
| New McMullens ownership seems to have improved the place based on a couple of recent visits. I concur with the previos comment about high prices - Mac's Cask Ale ~30p a pint more expensive than in another nearby Mac's pub. Presumeably they think the clientel here are prepared to pay more for the ambiance? Good beer though nonetheless. So far, the staff have been fine - none of the unfriendliness previously mentioned witnessed so far... SA162 - 13 Jan 2008 14:16 |
