"This pub has been tastefully refurbished. It has new management from Jan 2024. We visited today 24th April. My wife is in a wheelchair and staff were immediately on hand to open the french doors for access. In the space of two hours we were the only diners apart from two couples having coffee and two fellows who had soup. Despite this the service was slow, staff were frequently absent. I had to knock on the kitchen door to get someone to give me a bill. We felt there was too much emphasis on trying to be different but some dishes, like deep fried bread and butter pudding were slightly weird. The meal was o.k. but service and staff attentiveness could be better. A mild disappointment for what promised to be a great experience. Little touches, like serving biscoff or mints with the coffee would have been good. My belly pork was quite good but served with 'apple mash ' which I took to be an alternative to apple sauce, turned out to be mashed potato, therefore the chips ordered as an extra were superfluous. After three months, even a midweek lunchtime should be busier, but perhaps other locals have been reluctant to make a return visit."

Nice food ,and straight off the kain road. Was rather cold inside and a lot of steps all round. They did have a disabled loo but car park in a terrible state, not sure how anyone in a wheelchair would fare?????

Popped in at Sunday lunchtime to find two cars full of people trying to gain access, but place appeared closed with drawn curtains and no sign of life. Can't really post a review, maybe there had been an emergency to deal with. Hope to return soon. View menu

Broke down here, met with wonderful hospitality by all staff, particularly two women who were kind and cheerful. If this is the service given when you've broken down, I can only imagine how wonderful it would be as an overnight customer! Would definitely recommend

Living locally and never visited the White Hart before we thought we would give it a try. We saw it was under new management as it seems to have had a chequered past with various managers. Well we were pleasantly surprised pub is great with plenty of space both indoors and out lots with ample parking. Drinks are very reasonable with a good selection but the food was great. Both my wife and I had rump steak which was cooked perfectly, came with all the trimmings which was great. Another customer came in and picked up pizzas which you can takeaway. Will certainly return and recommend, waiting for the Sunday roast to be on the menu, if as good as the steak then we will return with friends/famil...

"We had two dinners and breakfast from this restaurant because we stayed in the Home Farm Hotel. We wanted to have the dinner and breakfast during our stay, but had to cancel our plans due to VERY POOR customer service received from Richard and also...because of his wife's cooking due to overcooked and burned full cook breakfast we received from the restaurant. Day 1, Richard introduced his wife to us, but she totally ignored us and in addition, she did not even bother to acknowledged and smiled with us. She seems to be very upset or very distance from everything or stressed/fed up about something at the time. Not sure this was due to over working… Day 1, Richard requested us to come down stairs for the dinner at 18:00, but instead of taking us to the restaurant for dinner, he tried his best to hard sell the alcohols he had in the bar to us and also to all the other guests. This happened even after we told him several times that we only want the meal and no alcohol from his bar. After about two hours, I had to tell him that I’m a diabetic and heart patient therefore I do really want to eat the meal and have a rest. He gave us the menu and I asked for lamb which was on the menu and he went crazy and said to us that they do not provide English food in this restaurant. I showed him what was on the menu, but he did not even apologise to us. He said lamb run out and asked us to select something else from the menu, again we selected duck, but that was run out as well!!! By then, Richard was sarcastic and rude to us as well as to other guests… In the end, we asked what we can have for our dinner. He almost shouted at us saying he and his wife only there to run the hotel without any staff therefore, we have to eat whatever his wife can cook!!! Finally, at about 21:00, we managed to have our dinner and I asked Richard to cancel our breakfast and dinner booking for the rest of the days however, he said we have to take the breakfast for next day because it was too late to cancel it. Next morning (Day 2), we were near the restaurant since 08:00 as Richard requested but as usual, past 09:00 we received burnt and overcooked full breakfast for two of us. They had a very large menu but it seems like most of the food either his wife did not know how to cook or had run out. Richard charged full price for our meals, BUT he FORGOT to provide the good quality food and services to the customers…"
