The White Hart in Rother

We went for a meal here with my granddaughter. She order panko chicken burger. When it came to the table it looked over cooked. My granddaughter took a bite and said didn't taste very nice and when she showed me the chicken burger was still raw. You could tell it had been deep fried but had not cooked through. Thank god she hadn't eaten anymore. I will definitely not be going there again. Also staff standing at the end of the bar vaping then not washing their hands and going straight to serve customers...not professional

Visited the white hart catsfield today with my wife & our dog, we had a very good meal great staff very friendly made to feel welcome with our dog also. A nice traditional pub good food good beer also a lovely log fire. (Would recommend)

Really good food lovely warm fire friendly staff and good prices

Once our local pub as a child. A lot has changed. Now a restaurant room once has been a play room. Nicely decorated. Tasty pub meals at reasonable prices. Very popular Saturday evening. Don't need to book. I haven't known it as a Inn.

We only ate here and didn't sleep. The food and service were excellent.

Pleasant atmosphere and staff friendly but the food wasn't great. When will people realise that a steak and kidney pudding heated in a microwave is not a great idea. Most of the pudding was hard and inedible. At no point did the staff ask if everything was ok.

Great meal and atmosphere.. Staff are great and up for a laugh.

Excellent atmosphere with warm and inviting hosts. The food here is exceptional, my compliments to the chef. Many thanks to all the team for an excellent evening and a welcoming change to find such a lovely, dog friendly pub. We will be back!

We came here for Sunday lunch while staying nearby and we weren't disappointed- our server dealt with special food requirements without batting an eyelid, and the food was lovely. Roast spuds were crispy and the turkey was beautifully cooked. Excellent

We celebrated a joint 50th Birthday here on Saturday evening and it was amazing. The staff were so welcoming and helpful the pub looked charming and the Buffett food was lovely and there was plenty of it for everyone. So many drinks to choose from no one was disappointed. Highly recommend this traditional country pub.

Sunday roast 3/2/24 an unusual failure. It was more of a cremation with everything badly burnt and partly inedible. Shame! Normally so good.

Went for Sunday lunch in this popular pub. To avoid the noisy bar area we'd booked a table in the dining room which was comfortable and not too cramped. The staff were friendly and welcoming. Despite being busy the food arrived within an appropriate time. Our roasts were nicely presented and well cooked: crispy potatoes and Yorkshire puddings, tender beef without a hint of pink (just how we like it) with a modest helping of fresh veg. The Yorkshires were a tad dark and the dollop of mashed curried veg seemed an odd addition to a roast (I would have preferred more of the fresh veg), but otherwise it was tasty and satisfying. For afters we went for their signature flapjack crumble with custard, which was delicious and filling. All in all, nice meals for a sensible price.

As always the perfect choice. We don’t often eat out but choosing the White Hart it is just the perfect choice. The staff are so courteous and helpful. Our lunch today was perfect.

Beautiful pub, friendly greeting on entrance by bar staff. We felt welcome from the off,We ate lovely food all fresh and presented well.nice portion size and value for money. Would highly recommend and will return.

We visited for the first time on Saturday lunchtime, it’s was lovely, nice atmosphere, great friendly welcome, staff were excellent really attentive and making sure we were happy with everything. The food was really good and the chocolate orange pudding is incredible, we will definitely return.

Gorgeous pub with real fires and the best pub food we have had in ages🥰 lovely lovely staff and very reasonably priced can’t wait to go back Thankyou!

Popped in for a pint. Lovely and warm and very quaint inside, wasn't expecting it to be as nice as it was based on outside to be honest but it's lovely!

Great choice of food and really tasty. All of the staff were so sweet and friendly and the pub itself is lovely and cosy 😊

As a senior group of guys we met up at the White Hart yesterday for a lovely Christmas Lunch and we’re more than pleased with our venue selection. There was a little confusion with numbers and selection but it was all sorted by Ruby in a delightful and attentive manner . We will be back, the food was spot on.

We stayed next door at the White Hart Stables and had three excellent meals at the White Hart. Dog friendly and some lovely local walks. The Manager Dan was extremely welcoming and has a great team of staff working for him . The choice of menu is excellent and offers great value. If you like a Single malt then your in for a treat. Open log fire added to the ambience. I would definitely recommend.

We held our beautiful daughter and son in laws wedding reception here on 25/11/23. What a fabulous choice! Charlie,his family and all the staff could not have done more for us. Wonderful food, friendly service and a day (and evening) that will stay in everyone's minds for a very long time to come. Couldn't have been better. Thankyou.

Lovely food and great atmosphere. Service was very good.

Lovely pub with good atmosphere. Lovely friendly staff and good food. Also dog friendly! May be a bit pricey for some items (£8.00 for a few pieces of breaded Brie and small salad garnish as one example) but delicious!

Went here this evening to listen to Mick Sweetman and he was fantastic, but unfortunately the pub allows people to vape indoors openly and my appergies started, then took an asthma attack so had to leave. Such a shame. How is this legal?

Great food. Excellent staff, always a good visit.

Always good when you go out for a meal and don't come out hungry. Food is absolutely great tasting and value for money. My first choice to go for a meal out.

We were in the area for an appointment and happened upon the pub. We were blown away - such a beautiful pub with the most friendly and welcoming landlords and staff. The food was DELICIOUS - proper home cooked, wholesome food. For such a fantastic price too. The three of us all agreed it was the best meal out we've had in a long time. We just wish we lived closer as we'd be in very regularly! Thank you. ✨️

Good food service and enjoyed the evening thank you.

We were made to feel most welcome by the staff on a wet and dreary day. Lovely location , great food at a competitive price, we'll definitely being going back.

Nice meal, good service. No kids.👍

Great food with options for vegetarians and vegans, good value, very friendly staff, lovely building.

Best traditional pub around by far!! Great atmosphere and friendly staff. I would highly recommend..

Very nice pork Belly and potatoes. Homemade Yorkshire puddings.

Lovely country pub setting, pleasant staff. Didn't eat there but pub was very busy and many tables were reserved for lunch/dinner so would recommend booking in advance if going to eat there.

Such a lovely evening, I only booked the evening before and they fitted us in at 6pm. Service throughout was friendly and efficient, we were well looked after by everyone, food was all homemade and catered for my mum in law who just wanted a small meal. Would highly recommend and puddings were pretty good too.

The White Hart is our favourite place to eat whilst staying on a nearby caravan site. We booked for 10 people twice during our most recent trip (they do get busy). The staff are always accommodating to your needs, including dogs. We preordered which meant that food came very quickly. The staff are always helpful and friendly even when they are busy. The food is always great but the Sunday roasts are particularly good and my son loves the curries. The pies are lovely too and there are decent vegetarian options. There is a nice garden at the front and parking in the front and back of the pub. We think the White Hart is fabulous and would recommend it to anyone who wants a lovely, reasonably priced meal.

Today we had ten n our family Sunday roast party but disappointed this time as the beef being chewy and tough. Yorkshire puddings also overcooked. The lamb 2 people had was good. Bit sad as it was our grandaughters 16th birthday too. Mcdonalds

Visited as a family of 8. Staff really kind and helpful. Food was great and a decent price for what we had. No complaints from us. Dog friendly as well which is great

The staff were really attentive and helpful, the meal was delicious , I had a old favourite steak and kidney pudding, it was as good as my mum used to make

Unfortunately I can't write a review about the Cottage in the grounds of this great pub as it doesn't have a listing. We have just returned from a week in the Cottage and I can not praise it enough. It has everything needed to make you comfortable and the owners run the adjoining Pub. The pub is a gem in its self. It has good real ale and a superb menu. The staff are helpful and friendly and the service is second to none. We ate in the pub for 7 days, the menu was so varied that have a dish twice. The food was fresh, well cooked and always hot. They do a great Sunday roast and Monday is £6 Curry Night, a real bargain. Well done to Dan for running a good honest pub and the Cottage is great as well.

Went in looking for some food with friends, many empty tables (in honesty we arrived an hour before food was served but were happy to have a drink first and wait) but upon entering, we were ignored and then when greeted by the bar lady, it was ‘are you lost?!’. No nice welcome at all. We asked for a table for 5 just to be given a shaken head as no. We looked round at all the empty tables (in and outside) and was then told no we’re fully booked. Hard to believe but we went elsewhere instead. Very rude and made to feel not welcome at all, maybe as we weren’t local. But no attempt to even try and seat us for a drink and see how they could possibly fit us in. Perhaps some training needed.

The pub is the last of the proper old school pubs with friendly and well trained staff. It was extremely busy with the restaurant taken up by a 70th Birthday party. Despite the amount of people we got our meal on time and piping hot. The food was excellent and the whole experience was enjoyable. We really couldn't fault it.

Very nice: had fish and chips which was nice but far too much better tempura would have been a mmazing . Risotto was new on menu and my friend was first to taste it . Sadly not to her liking so she could not eat...

Fabulous, friendly, inviting pub. Best I’ve been to for years. Staff couldn’t do enough , great choice of gins and any other spirit that takes your fancy and food was excellent - would 100% recommend.

Pleasantly surprised by this pub. We visited for lunch with the family during a week away in Northiam. The food was excellent, the prices good and the staff had a great attitude with the children. The atmosphere in the pub was friendly. It was so...

Can only thank the manager/ staff for excellent service and quality food. Never easy to cope with large parties (esp when people forget what they ordered! ) but they did an exceptional job in amazing surroundings. We will definately be going back! A5*

Called in on the way to Bexhill for lunch . Greeted by a friendly young barmaid who seated myself and my husband on a table by the lovely open fire . The food was delicious , freshly cooked and the meat in my steak and...

Great food, lovely staff nothing to much trouble and I’m sure it’s always hard work with a large group. Thank you

Came here with friends and had a great time. Really good roasts and my pie of the day was delicious. Lovely friendly staff. A really nice pub.

Lovely little pub. Came here because everywhere else was fully booked. Very spacious & busy, really good menu for only £12.50 a roast when the general price around here is about £18. Big portions and large dessert menu. Would definitely come back for a Sunday...

We stopped here on our way to Eastbourne and had a lovely ploughmans lunch which was fresh and tasty. The service was great and Ella and the other waitress were very pleasant. Would definitely recommend!!

Went in as strangers. Service was good and courteous. The 3 waitresses were really good and friendly. Guvnor was pleasant too. Food was very good quality based on a British menu. Had a fun night and food was very acceptable. We shall return

Went out their way to accommodate all four of us with our Sunday lunch Highly recommended - lovely service from the girls too -

Visited without booking which we should have done as this place is popular. However they made a table for us and presented a wonderful meal. Honestly could not have been better ~ cannot recommend enough.

Stopped for snack lunch on a very hot day - good fare and servcie. Recommend and would reurn when in area.

Love this place. We are occasional visitors to the area and have been here several times. Always good always buzzing even on a Monday. Unpretentious and relaxed. Friendly helpful staff. A village pub with benefits. People obviously dropping in from work, holiday makers, families, couples,...

We picked this pub for the reviews, ( wanted a Plough Man's Lunch) and it was on our way home from spending a couple of days near Battle. My Wife particularly was looking forward to having a Plouhman's but we found it quite hard to...

First time visiting this pub in catsfield and it won't be our last !!!! Friendly welcoming staff and the food 🥰🥰 the food was beautiful !! Perfectly cooked steaks and a supreme chicken supreme. Highly recommended xx

We had a lovely meal here on Saturday, we hadn’t booked but where shown to a nice table, the waitress Jess I think her name was, very friendly and chatty with everyone. The food was delicious, can recommend the chilli and brownie was delicious.

Last 2 visits have been with family. We first visited on a Monday lunch and food was great we then visited on a Sunday lunch and food and service was not as good, sadly.

Second time burgers were uncooked !!!! Would not recommend you waste your money here. Man behind the bar drank more than he sold !!!

Consistently good food and welcoming service. Sensibly priced. No nonsense pub grub and local ales. We will be back - often

Highly recommend great fresh home cooked food amazing atmosphere friendly staff great value and children are welcome as well as dogs

Lovely local pub, very friendly staff always welcoming & the food is amazing. Really lovely owners highly recommend

Lovely pub. Very authentic and cute inside. Great gin selection (I tried a few!!) Food was very delicious. Staff very accommodating and nice to talk to. Overall great experience and lovely food. Would recommend.

The best scampi I’ve ever had Would definitely recommend very accommodating and friendly staff definitely will visit again

Faultless. Friendly staff. Lovely local people. Dog friendly. Huge selection of drinks - gin and whiskey especially. Yummy food at reasonable price. Great ambience. Buzzing. Nice decor. What more can I say? We loved this pub.

We are blown away by such a wonderful pub. We shall be back again. Some good walks near by, if you have a dog with you. And dogs welcome inside, but only in the bar area. Our food was fantastic, we really enjoyed it very...

Came by to have a look & try the food as just brought my caravan to nearby seasonal pitch. Says lunch available until 3pm on the board but apparently it stops a bit earlier as I was there at quarter to waiting in the bar for someone to serve me. 5 minutes later the barmaid appeared with her lunch in her hands to say food has finished. Won't be going back there again.

Perfect service, great prices and excellent food! What more do you need.

Great service great food fantastic ambience and not expensive

Recommended to go by Airbnb host, so good we did it twice! Friday & Saturday night. Excellent...

It never matters what year you visit the White Hart, it's like a honeymoon every time! You always think 'this can't be better than the last time we were here' and Surprise! They've outdone themselves again! It's a tribute to the quality staff, the commitment to service and the commitment to quality the White Hart maintains. You just cannot go wrong with the White Hart! I heartily recommend you visit here any time you need an escape from your Mother-in-Law! The food is fantastic, and the ambiance is fantastic! If you miss the White Hart you've made a silly mistake!

This was my first visit. Lovely restaurant to sit in away from the bar. Basic pub food but really well cooked. Extremely pleasant and friendly staff. Will definitely return

We went to the White Hart last night food was unreal all very fresh plenty to eat service was good our 1st time eating at the white Hart and it certainly won't be the last congrats to all see you again soon

Booked a table for a late lunch and sat by a lovely log fire. Staff friendly and efficient. A good local beer on pump and a menu that included some favourites. Service was quick and the food excellent value for money although we had to...

We dropped into the White Hart at lunchtime on our way back from a walk on Bexhill beach, with our dog. The two lovely members of staff who greeted us, made us feel as welcome as the wonderful sunny weather that we were experiencing that...

Excellent birthday dinner in front of a roaring fire with top notch Harveys bitter. Try it.

Just returned from a very enjoyable Sunday lunch at the White Hart. The roast dinners were the nicest we've eaten out for a long time. Hot, tasty, nicely presented. The broccoli could have been cooked for a little bit longer that's personal preference. Plenty of...

Great food. Great service. Lovely atmosphere

I ordered a fish and chips and my friend ordered the chicken supreme meal. The chips were soft and crispy, just right. The fish was great too, the batter was not too tough or too soft and tasted great. My friend liked his meal, but...

We called for a meal and what a surprise it was, the food was worthy of a 5 star hotel well worth a visit

I was puzzled by the slow production of our meals, but when they arrived the quality was very good and obviously prepared on site. The value for money excellent.

We are a family of three and booked a table whilst staying at the caravan park down the road. This beautiful pub had a wonderful atmosphere, staff were friendly and attentive, and pleased to help. The pub restaurant was very cosy with lots of attention to details, a very pleasant area to sit in. The menu had just enough on to offer a good variety but not too much, and the food was spot on.....delicious homemade food, including a nice children's menu. We came here to eat twice in one week's holiday. We are returning to the area again and will definitely be booking another table.

Lovely pub....great food... nice atmosphere... will be back

We had roast chicken with lumpy gravy very stodgy heavy Yorkshire and mushy over cooked veg. Small portion. Not worth the money.

The White Hart inn Catsfield is a wonderful pub with friendly welcoming staff, great food and a lovely warming atmosphere! I would recommend anyone to visit this pub with a wide choice on the menu there is something for everyone and the drinks selection is...
