We have been back to The White Hart quite a few times since I posted this review. We have had excellent meals every time. Todays meal 20/11/24 was truly excellent. The moules marrinaire were absolutely delicious. The skate was enormous and delicious. My wife's cod was also a really generous portion and delicious. Again the whole experience was first class. A spur of the moment decision to try The White Hart on a wednesday lunchtime for the first time. What a lovely place to eat and relax, really friendly and welcoming staff. From the initial phone call to book to being served we were looked after by Olivia she was absolutely brilliant. Friendly, funny and really attentive. We had Skate and Cod with chips as our main courses with tempora prawns as a starter. All of the food was really nice, delicious good sized portions and piping hot. Really reasonable prices. 2 drinks 2 starters and 2 mains for £45 ! Really good value and will definitely be returning. It was a really pleasant experience and judging by how busy the place was a lot of other people thought so as well.

Quite hard to find good pub food on a Monday locally. What a lovely pub with fantastic service and a great atmosphere. They have Monday night roast which my wife has and it was lovely, I had the burger which was equally as nice. Don’t need many extras as the size of the portions are more than adequate. Well worth a trip if you fancy a good pub meal

A breakfast meeting with friends but where to eat? Not many ‘decent’ eateries around our area for breakfast so checking out on Tripadvisor and, from a past experience, we decided on The White Hart. A very positive choice for all four of us. We arrived earlier than our friends but were greeted at the door by a very cheerful, ‘front of house’, young lady. OK, let me say, this was somewhat unexpected at 9.00 am. She was a delight. Took our order for coffee prior to our friends, held up in traffic, arriving. After a while the four of us ordered breakfasts, all different. Timing was brilliant as it gave us time for a good chatter before eating. The time taken for the food to arrive proved that everything was cooked to order, not that we doubted it. Food, in all cases was delicious and filling. Full English with wonderful bacon, Egg Benedict with a couple of extra rashers of bacon (my friend stated he wished he hadn’t ordered the extra), Scrambled egg with smoked salmon and, finally, Poached egg on avocado with sour dough toast. Can’t be beaten anywhere. With a pricing that was, also, impossible to beat. Nice atmosphere for the time of the day. Comfortable seating. Very clean, in fact sparkling clean. Interesting décor. But the main pluses are great food at a reasonable price. Good friendly service but very professional. Would we go back? See you soon guys and gals. THANK YOU one and all.

Food and service were both excellent during our visit today, however we were seated on a very uncomfortable table. There is a small inner room without ventilation, and there were 16 people squashed in. It was over 26 degrees according to the thermometer in there, and our party and the other guests took it in turns to sit outside in between courses. The other party sat apart on separate tables in another part of the restaurant for dessert, as it was unbearable. We stopped at another restaurant on the way home for dessert - all 8 of us managed a meal in just over half an hour, which is a testament to the efficient service and also our desire to get out as quickly as possible! Would return, but be sure to check table is not located in this area.

Visited for Sunday lunch. We were a party of three couples who eat together regularly and enjoy finding new venues. We were seated in a small side room and made to feel very welcome from the get go…our waitress, Olivia, was incredible and she soon picked up on our humour and relaxed attitude and joined in to perfection making us all laugh and feel at home, she is a total gem and deserves high praise. The food was wonderful, five of us had the roast and one the nut roast..we didn’t leave anything! All in all a great lunch and we plan to return to try the man in menu asap.

Me, my husband, son, daughter in law had lunch in the pub on Monday 1st July we was so disappointed with the food my son had battered large cod of which looked very dried it had bones in it we did tell the table server and he did offer to get a fresh meal for my son but my son no it’s ok but he didn’t enjoy the fish it smelled more like haddock than cod we also got charged extra £2.95 which we thought came with peas so I thought that was outrageous to charge us separately for a small portion of peas if we had known that we would not of ordered that food as for our roast dinners it was just so tasteless the large Yorkshire puddings was so rock hard, burnt i honestly thought they was heated up from the day befores roasts dinners the vegetables was not cooked properly, no taste the pigs in blankets, stuffing was also tasteless and the gravy also was tasteless we will never go back there again to eat it’s such a shame as my son, daughter in law used to eat there and said the food was so tasty well I am guessing the chefs have change I think they need a lesson how to warm up the days leftovers lol 😂 we paid a lot of money for 4 meals that was not a pleasure to eat so very disappointed Won’t be going back there again and wasting our money it was meant to we a treat for our son, daughter in law.

We visited on the day the new menu was offered. We went for two courses, calamari and grilled skate wing, tempura prawns in a chilli dipping sauce and large cod, chips and mushy peas. Both meals were well prepared, presented and tasty, although my cod could have been seasoned. Although previously it was 2:1 , the new menu shows a reduced price, so for two courses and two drinks, it came to £53. We shall return on a Wednesday as it has a dedicated fish menu. Well done everyone. Paul

Made to feel very unwelcome when we popped in for lunch after a reasonably long dog walk. We sat outside as the weather was pleasant and the dogs a little muddy. I went in but wasn’t allowed to order drinks at the bar, I had to order from the table using my phone, which would have been fine apart from 25 mins later, we were still waiting for our drinks. The food arrived after about a 20 min wait (which would have been fine had we had our drinks promptly), but avoid the satay chicken. It was very dry and served on some slimy cucumber and carrots, not the salad as stated in the menu, fries were cold as well. Husband said his sausage and mashed potatoes was nice, but didn’t come with any veg, you had to pay extra for that. All in all very disappointing. We have eaten here a number of times in the past, but won’t be rushing back.

Have eaten here for many years and to be honest the meal last night was one of the best! The staff were attentive, didn't have to wait long between courses, the menu was excellent, a very good choice, and the food itself was very good. Even having a nut allergy didn't seem to effect what I could and couldn't have off the menu, chef bringing out the food and making sure I got the right food, good atmosphere, sensible pricing, all in all a very good evening, would certainly recommend

Having booked more than a Week in advanced for a Family meal. We arrived 10 minutes early for our 4 O’Clock booking to be ignored by staff. That would rather watch the dirty used glasses stack up on the bar than clean up or engage with patrons. We waited until half 4 to be taken to our table. We then waited a further 20 minutes to be asked for drinks, at which point the waiter stated that the table did not exist on the POS system. So again another wait to be served. We finally got our drinks ordered and brought over. We also ordered starters and mains at this point to have the starters brought out about 10 minutes later. Mediocre at best! Then a further long wait for the biggest disappointment of roast dinners to arrive it was over cooked and the Yorkshire puddings were dismal, I wouldn’t through it at risk of breaking a window. The roast turkey meal arrived to the table with crackling on it, after picking it apart to check it was turkey. We sent it back to be replaced, they removed the crackling, reconstructed the plate including a half eaten stuffing ball, they then sent the same plate sent out now slightly cooler. Safe to say at this point the evening was ruined and we left with the complete intention of never returning. If I never visit this establishment again it would still be too soon!

There was no 2for1 offer at our table today so we assumed it wasnt available Thursdays & ordered a la normal carte. Starters ok, drinks ok, mains got switched at last minute due to steak pie being off. Oh well, chicken pie instead then; should be ok. No, not ok; no discernable chicken in there. Gave up on dessert & asked for bill. Bill came with a 2for1 menu; err shouldn't we have been offered this at the start?? A word with manager please.... he just kept pointing at the mains on the menu card saying "yeah, 2for1 steak, Tuesday FROM Sunday"!!! But there's absolutely no mention of 2for1 steak on the menu. His bar staff stood behind looking mildly embarrased at his lack of English & inability to even understand our point. We are not poor, but not rich either, & I feel £60.00+ is way too much for what we just had. We were only there in first place for a 2for1 deal. Im still giving 5 stars because i know the owner, but really not a good experience today, & over charged.

Turkey very dry. Didn't think it possible to get an Eton mess wrong .. but it is. A scoop of ice cream (!) with a red fruit sludge and a hunt for the slivers of meringue mixed in. Cheese board looked decent. From our table we could see the kitchen pass and a lot of dishes were spending quite a long time waiting to be taken to tables. I know they were very busy with the place rammed .. but maybe get extra staff in to keep the standards up.

Have had many good meals here over the years but recently visited and ordered a Massaman Curry. Unfortunately my meal bore no resemblance to a genuine Massaman Curry. Not a hint of Coconut Milk which is the base for this dish around the world. The Beef was a dryish ,spicey casserole mix and was served with a lightly flavoured Jasmine Rice. The potatoes were served separately and appeared to be large roasted chunks. I have enjoyed Massaman Curries at many locations and never seen or tasted one like this. I didn't make a complaint at the time as we were with friends on a Birthday celebration and to be fair my friends all enjoyed their meals. However I did fill ln their feedback form and personally dropped it in the following day. I'm sorry to say I havn't had any response. So .... Nice place, good value but avoid the Massaman Curry option.

Lovely pub, great ambience and decor. Food very disappointing, this is a genuine review as I hope the managers read and listen. Service is great although waiter was on his own rushing around, drinks were great. Food was so poor had to send my starter back as contained fish and was obviously deep fried, yet cold in the middle. My partners calamari consisted of more soggy breadcrumbs than actual calamari. The double dippy burger was a sad looking burger with a bowl of what I can only describe as cheap american cheesy sauce? Why not get your chefs to make a decent homemade dip? Overall very disappointing food for a lovely place, and the prices they charge you should do a lot better. Sadly we won’t return.

She made sure people were greeted and asked what they wanted for a drink. She was amazing along with all the staff. The food was so good, lovely and hot and we weren’t kept waiting considering we were a large party. The party menu was terrific, with so much choice. Many of my friends and family said how hard Olivia worked but also how good the other staff were. I would like to thank all the staff as they helped give me such a memorable birthday.😃

Food and service was excellent but the loud and foul mouthed table behind us rather ruined the evening for me.

We were a party of 10 adults and 3 children, greeted and made to feel welcome by Olivia who looked after us brilliantly all evening. We had various menu choices and every dish was excellent with each person being served at the same time. The other waitresses assisting Olivia also did a fantastic job, the whole experience ensured a great evening for my wife’s birthday. Look forward to seeing you again soon.

Heard it was under new owners and thought we’d give it a try. Turns out it is excellent. Very friendly staff and amazing tasty food. I had a burger that was very good. And my father had a roast which he was very pleased with. We are definitely coming back.

Wow - simply ticks every box. Great atmosphere, scrumptious food, wonderful menu with so much choice. So hard to choose what I wanted as so many meals I wanted to try. Delicious cocktails and super service. Wish it was nearer to where I live but definitely will go again when I’m back in Essex.

Pre-ordered the Sunday menu for a family party. 20 adults and 5 young kids. Curtis was a real star. Made us feel welcome and a lovely atmosphere in the upstairs party room. Food was well presented and lovely and hot. Was just quite a long wait between courses, which meant the kids became a bit unsettled, but nice that there was an area for them to play. Good value and the staff worked really hard to ensure we had a good time

There was nothing wrong with the meal and the service was great but I thought it was expensive for the standard of the food. We paid >£85 for 2 for a 3 course meal with 1 beer and 3 glasses of wine. I cannot help wondering how much of what we chose was bought in and just micro-waved or put in the pan. Locally I can get better food for less money. It was my first time here and I won't hurry to return.

A lovely pub, in a lovely setting with lovely staff and great food. Our waitress Olivia was super, very attentive and fun. This pub has been really cared for and looked after both inside and out. The decor, the freshness and its very charming. So also sell bags of sweets!!!!

The meal was excellent and the service was superb, particularly a waitress called Olivia who met all our needs. Nothing was too much trouble and she went above and beyond what is expected. The ambiance in the dining area was lovely.

Had a wonderful family afternoon tea last Saturday. Easy to book, staff were quietly efficient, friendly and attentive. Food was excellent and more than enough. Highly recommended in a lovely setting.
