We always enjoy the white Horse and since new management the atmosphere and staff attitudes have improved greatly . Everything and everyone is very nice. As we are local and would like to visit there more often, we feel the prices are a bit steep in relation to the portion sizes, which are a bit small. The food , however, is tasty and well presented, but my husband always leaves feeling a bit hungry. He therefore chooses fish and chips which is more substantial, but pub food rather than gourmet.

A really lovely place with great staff and fantastic food. The views are spectacular and worth a visit on a warm day. It was a little cold for a walk on our visit as we hadn’t prepared for the cold wind. Will be back in the summer :)

Had lunch for my wife’s birthday and it was superb. Menu selection A1 particularly if you like fish. Service and attitude was excellent by all the staff and the little “extra” birthday plate was unexpected and delightful. Would highly recommend the White Horse for good food, good service and a lovely experience. Well done to Rob and all the staff.

The small amount of food we had was reasonable but not great compared to previous visits. We do not agree a service charge is just added without asking us. The waiter was extremely rude when we told him about the portion which was not even big enough for a child let along a male adult. He was then even more rude when we said we wasn’t paying a service charge. The service was slow and never the same waiter. It wasn’t busy so wasn’t really an excuse. Really upset by our visit as we try to come regularly, it’s given us a really bad feeling after today.
