White Horse, Thelnethamback to pub details please note - reviews on this site are purely the opinion of site visitors, so don't take them too seriously.
Re-opened on 28th December. New landlady, Dawn, has run pubs before but not on her own. Excellent pint of Adnams Southwold today. Intention to have Adnams Southwold Bitter, Woodforde's Wherry and a guest from local breweries. Family, dog and "wellie" friendly.

whilst visiting the erea two years ago we visited the white horse hoping to get sunday lunch. Well, apart from not doing food the beer was poor and the place was scruffy and empty - we thought "what a shame". Last week, 16th October 05, again visiting relatives, we passed the White Horse and the car park was full at 1pm on Sunday. We turned round our of curiosity, parked and went in and wow again WOW - what a difference. Smart, fantastic service, brilliant choice of beer (I am a camra member)and , well the food was out of this world, we stayed fro three hours and any publicans out there who want to see how a country pub/restuarant should be run - pay a visit to this place 10 out of 10

Excellent traditional local pub in the Suffolk countryside - a firm favorite of many locals who can tell many a tall tale of nights out here.
Duchards IPA and Black Sheep Bitter often appear as guest ales. Regular ales are from Green King and Adnams. The usual largers, ciders and spirits are available as well a selection wines (including a wine from the village of dubious quality!) Good family atmosphere and open all day. Good affordably priced menu.
The pub was run as a free house by a couple called Rob and Barbara for many years and they earned an excellent reputation for good food, well kept beer, guest ales and the best company. Rob and Barbara retired about 3 years ago and the pub was sold to a brewery. Since then the pub has been run by a succession of managers since who were never been allowed the time and money really required to build up a satisfactory trade from the local community. The pub had been slowly deteriorating and faced closure until earlier this years when local business man Tony Nichols stepped in and cut a deal with the brewery to save the pub. Tony has been a regular at the bar for many years and is busy restoring the pub to top form.
