The White Hart in Sevenoaks

The service was amazing as we had a lovely waiter named Alex who was attentive, well-mannered and helpful. The food was great and I would definitely recommend the white hart.

The White Hart is our local pub and over the years it has become our 'go-to' place for informal meals with friends. We love the friendly welcome, the good service and the sensibly priced and very tasty food. There are many nooks and crannies for intimate meals if you like. Tuesday evening was no exception,; the pub was busy but not full. (It is always worth booking - especially for sunday lunch) and as ever we enjoyed a hummus starter (£5.95) and main courses of Pork and Leek sausages (my favourite! £17.45), Lamb Rosemary pie (£17.95) , Milanese (£18.95) and Vegetable Thai curry (a bit hot! £15.95). We had a lovely bottle of Fiorbella Rosso wine (£29.95) and coffees (about £4 each, although my cappuccino was £4.25 - a bit expensive I think). We would return again of course.

If you are a dog, you would be looked after. If you try to book for your mum a seat for Mother's Day, you'll be told it's full only to see 3 dogs sitting actually on seats at the table in the restaurant on one table. The manager seemed to think this is acceptable.

A rare example of somewhere maintaining standards at Christmas. Good food, good service, and for most tables a good ambience. All at an acceptable price. Have been back on a weekday lunchtime since and it was great.

Lovely food and excellent service. Daughter has allergies to wheat (gluten), nuts and sesame. There were lots of options for her to choose from and the waiter made sure everything was checked. Thoroughly enjoyable meal all round! Thank you

Absolutely wonderful evening for my wife’s birthday. Great food & lovely and attentive service as always, and a cracking fire too! Thanks!

We had a table booked for a family 12:30 lunch today (10th February). When we arrived, we were treated to a warm smile and friendly greeting by a female member of staff and shown quickly to our table. Within a couple of minutes of being seated, a friendly waiter appeared, who efficiently, and without fuss, took our orders for drinks. Our main meals arrived (thankfully altogether) within a reasonable short space of time. The gourmet verdict about our meals from our entire family group was extremely positive. Tasty, delicious, substantial and hot, were the four words we all used to describe our food. My daughter had a dessert, which she was very happy with, and all of us had beverages after our main course. I would certainly return to the White Hart in the near future, and because of our excellent lunch, I have no hesitation in recommending the White Hart as a great dining venue.

The evening was absolutely fantastic. Food, service and ambiance were all great.

Need to book. Seems always packed when I go. Although this does not impact service at all. Good selection of food too.

Επισκέφτηκα την παμπ μετα από μια ωραία βόλτα. Η ατμόσφαιρα ήταν ωραία και το φαγητό πραγματικά νόστιμο αξίζει να την επισκεφτείς

Nice restaurant attached to a good pub. The environment is very nice. The outdoor garden is very pleasant in the summer and there is a children’s play area near the car. The white Hart is located along the edge of Knoll park.

Food was lovely had a great family birthday lunch 10/10

On our latest visit yesterday the food (as ever) was excellent and the staff friendly and engaging

Booked a table for 1.30pm. On arrival we were welcomed and taken to our table immediately. Our server took a drink order and then returned in a timely manner to take the food order. We had venison pudding and scallop starters followed by chicken and fish cake mains which were well cooked, nicely seasoned and attractively presented. No undue waiting time between ordering and receiving each course. Portions were sufficient rather than excessive. To follow, there's an offering of small dessert plus a warm drink which makes sense and the small dessert is a sensible conclusion to what have been sufficient starters and mains. Prices are what you'd expect for better than average pub meals and the menu selection is sensibly sized. Although it's part of a chain, the staff all made us feel that we mattered as customers, and that we would be welcome on our return. Car park was full when we arrived so keep this in mind if booking at a busy time. Handy place for a meal if visiting Knowle Park.

The was expensive & not brilliant & they were too busy

Service is absolutely impeccable. They were attentive yet not intrusive. However the only gripe is since of late the food has gone a bit downhill. Had the burger which was rather dry. Ball and chain had fish and chips...she claims it was excellent. Oh as always the atmosphere is brilliant

Having driven past a million times and never been in we decided on a whim to try Dinner at The White Hart last night. After hearing good things from friends we had high expectations, we were not disappointed. We hadn’t booked and the car park was busy so we’d prepared for maybe not being lucky. As soon as we reached the bar, despite being in the middle of something, Tom greeted us warmly, he searched for the possibility of a table ( they were very busy) and offered us a drink. Within 10 minutes we were sat at a table. Food was probably the best pub food we’ve had, the steak mushroom and ale pie was piping hot, veg cooked to perfection, scallops starter was delicious! So was the venison suet pudding… can’t fault anything. Staff all very attentive and know what they are doing, We will definitely be back.

Lovely buzzy pub. Great service

Good food, well presented, service friendly, and professional ,enjoyable lunch visit .

What a lovely pub. Traditional and welcoming. Run by a young team and staff were friendly and knowledgeable. Steak pie was delicious! Will be back to try other options.

Good menu excellent food nicely served. Very pleasant staff.

This is the BEST pub I have been to in 40 years! Went the day after Boxing Day this year, with my elderly parents my sister, her three kids, her husband, his elderly mother and two dogs. From the moment you walk in you are greeted warmly and automatically feel welcomed and I don’t mean this faux American bu//sh*t that we seem to have turned into (nothing against America but we are British). I was having a grumpy day and so was on the verge of being prickly. But the way the staff were so accommodating and made everything seem no trouble at all actually made me chill out. It was weird. I think I am so used to there being some type of confrontation or having to put up with the attitude that they are doing you are favour with everything in this country that this place literally transported me back to how it was back when I was growing up. Even the other customers were really nice. When you walk in a room with two dogs you don’t always expect smiles and conversations! I haven’t even mentioned how good the food is or the size of the portions, how they are good with kids etc.etc. And the girls serving us were not much older than 18. I could literally go on and on. Just go! That’s unless I hadn’t been transported to another time and place that day because I have not had that level of hospitality in a long time. Best pub in Britain for me and I’m from Manchester!!

Recent visit to the white heart for a meal before Christmas with friends. The food was good, parfait starter a little under seasoned but that’s just personal taste. Main course of pork belly was lovely and well cooked and the dessert was very pleasant. Our front of house Hannah however completely stole the show. She could not have done a better job. She learnt all our names immediate and managed all our individual tabs which I know is a real faff. As a professional in the hospitality industry for the last 15 years I was very impressed. She was part of the party and nothing was too much trouble. A personal thank you from myself and friends me for making our evening so wonderful.

Absolutely fantastic Christmas lunch, food and service was amazing. We weren’t rushed at all and a little token gift for my daughter which was a really nice touch. We will be booking again for next year! Merry Christmas!

Fantastic visit and meal once again. The food is always delicious and tasty, and the staff go above and beyond to make each visit amazing. Can’t wait to return !

Came on a very busy day. Your staff were so calm and welcoming - always a smile - nothing too much trouble. Special mention for Sean ! Your establishment are very lucky to have them.

Absolutely delicious Sunday roast and always fantastic service.

Nice food, but like most restaurants, pretty expensive. Good selection of gluten free options. Would visit again.

A group of 9 of us went here last night for our Christmas meal and we had a wonderful evening. The food was amazing and the service was incredible. Considering they were very busy we didn’t have to wait long for anything and they came to our table regularly to check if we needed anything. Will definitely return.

Booked dinner on Friday night for 5 of us. Had another friend turn up just after our Starters and the waiter was very accommodating and managed to add on a main meal to our order no hassle at all. The staff were really helpful and by the end of the evening we were the only people in the Pub but we didn’t feel rushed to leave. The food was really well presented and all our meals were great. Highly recommend.

Excellent all round. First visit to this pub but have been to others in the group All have been to the highest standard. Only downside we were seated near the back door which was cold with people in and out.

Very friendly and helpful staff love the atmosphere

Had a lovely Christmas meal (no Yorkshire pudding) lovely staff lovely atmosphere would recommend

Great service and superb food in this atmospheric and charming old inn full of interesting nooks and crannies (whatever a cranny is)

A splendid evening. Delicious food, great wine and an exceptional playlist. One of the finest pubs in Kent.

Decor, atmosphere and nostalgia as genuinely heartwarming as it was when old Geoff managed it in the early 1980"s and we'd stagger home. We've gone there much in the last few years due to the oldies living nearby and wonderful ease of parking too. Waiting staff always helpful, attentive and jolly. The manager isn't and thats a consensus and we're a pretty loose and large bunch too. The food is extremely average and accordingly very overpriced. Hattusa or the White Rock in Underriver is far better bang for your pound, quality-wise. Consistent in quality too. But the parking and atmosphere for the oldies at the WH is lovely so maybe just dont eat there ?

Had a terrific Sunday lunch today, the roast dinner was delicious and the restaurant was very accommodating for dogs. Harry was amazing, he was super attentive and certainly deserves some recognition for how he treated us. Will definitely be returning!! :)

This is a lovely old coaching inn... great food, good choice of well-kept real ales, and civilised atmosphere. Long may it continue, all in the best English tradition. PS Also, obviously, no dreadful musack or nasty machines...

Been several times. Great food and lovely atmosphere . Highly recommend.

We went there with some friends and the food was very nice. The service was good too although some waiters were more professional than others. Would go there again

Service for drinks is a bit slow. You have to try and catch there eye. Food was lovely. Also seating is good plenty of space between tables.

Met two groups of friends - first for lunch and second for coffee. I had fish, chips and mushy peas and it was the best I've ever eaten! Delicious and well worth the price. All of our plates were empty. The hospitality was fantastic and the staff were really accommodating and saved the table for me all afternoon. We will be back ASAP

A great food pub , with large indoor and outdoor dining. Friendly staff, excellent food and a good drinks selection. Very good service

Had a family lunch at the White Hart. It was brilliant! Food and service are second to none. Will be back very soon.

Amazing pub. Great atmosphere, service is amazing. Food a but delayed but well worth the wait. Dog friendly which is a huge plus! Definitely recommend and will be back soon

Disappointing service. Would have expected better.

On the day alcohol duty was frozen until August next year and businesses such as Brunning & Price were given permanent 100 per cent capital allowances, my local hostelry put up the price of a pint of Guinness from an already steep £5.50 to a ridiculous £6. A percentage increase over twice current inflation. RIP the great British pub culture, because with organisations like Brunning & Price involved, it clearly has no future.

Very busy. Service and food was excellent.

This used to be a really nice pub with good quality food. Sadly, although the pub itself is still nice, the meal was a big let down. My husbands prawns and tandoori wrap were very basic, not much better than a café yet twice the price! I ordered the goats cheese and squash salad, which was a few measly pieces of cos Lettuce with the cheese and slices of cold squash. The waiter didn't understand my intolerance to spice, and it had been swamped in the chilli/harissa spice which actually hardly had much flavour at all. I wouldn't choose to visit here again.

We had a lovely lunch here for 3, old friends catching up. The fish and chips, pie and fish cakes were tasty. Desserts were good and we enjoyed the atmosphere. Not cheap but then eating out in England is really expensive everywhere these days…

Absolutely fantastic lunch with my elderly parents for my mums birthday. Service and food could not have been better. First visit back in nearly 10 years and did not disappoint. Large choice of dishes with a good variety (admittedly we do not have any dietary requirements). We eat out a lot and this was one of nicest pub meals we have had in years. Will definitely be back. The restaurant was packed (a Tuesday lunchtime which says a lot!)....so I definitely recommend booking ahead.

Arrived without a booking but was told we could wait around half an hour for a table. The menu sounded good so we decided to stay. The wait wasn’t as long as anticipated and we were soon seated. I had the scallops and the pumpkin tortellini and my partner had the faggot and the sausage and mash. One disappointment was they were out of the feather of beef but we were happy to get something else. The starters in-particular were delicious but everything we tried was very good. We will certainly be returning

Great food, great atmosphere...our waiter Patrick was wonderful and cheery. But the others could do with lessons on personality development. Some wore distinct scowls.

Very disappointed, was looking forward to good evening out with friends. We were table of five and ordered different meals, food was very disappointing, not fresh and very tasteless . Only good thing was bottle of Wine and ice cream 🍨

Great food. Superb quality food too. Food is served wonderfully hot. Attentive and friendly staff. Very limited choice for vegetarian mains. Risotto and pasta not too inspiring. But this is case in many venues. I did not ask for any other options however.

Good value and always great food.

We visited as a party of 8 with four 80+ year old grandparents, two adults in their 50’s and two teenagers to celebrate the 16th birthday of our daughter. The restaurant refused to allow the 16 year old to enjoy a small glass of wine with her meal. They stated its against company policy despite it being perfectly acceptable in licensing law. A second manager suggested there are other pubs in Sevenoaks if this one doesn’t suit. Frankly a really poor show, rude response, total lack of empathy and understanding, ruined the evening. We spent £400 and i can assure you that with such average food, rude management and a policy that is not clearly promoted on the website, we will never go back and we will ensure that we make everyone we know aware of our experience. Publicans tell us how tough the industry is for them and these guys are turning business away.

Excellent menu choice, staff attentive. Setting lovely. Very good experience overall. Definitely be back again. Went back again for my husband's birthday last night. Service was not good. First they let our table that we specifically booked 3 weeks ago. But to be fair they did sort it out eventually. Then they kept forgetting things or mishearing orders which was frustrating. It was a shame as the food was aa good as last time. Maybe it eas just an off night. Considering it was a Thursday it was absolutely full

This was for a family get together of 13 people. Sophie our waitress was brilliant, very attentive and cheery. Food was exquisite, portion sizes were filling and tasted delicious. I would recommend the Blackberry and Apple Crumble Tart with Blackberry Sorbet.

We stopped here as a couple for Sunday lunch after a walk around the grounds of Knowle Park. The pub was busy but not over crowded or manic. All the staff we encountered were absolutely charming and attentive. Our meals were delicious and as a gluten free diner I was really well catered for. The sticky toffee pudding was particularly yummy! We will definitely return. If only all pubs were this great.

One of my favourite pubs as they do great food at a good price and also cater very well for people with allergies

A return visit to The White Hart, friendly welcome on arrival, shown to our table quickly. Drinks order taken quickly & shortly after our food order taken too. All happy with our food, when it came & enjoyed Fish & Chips, Crispy Chilly Beef &...

We visited and only after our starters had been delivered were we informed that it would be another fifty minute wait for our food. Staff apology received but simply not good enough

Cafe food at Knole didn't appeal so popped in here without reservation. Car park was full but was fitted in by friendly welcoming staff. All sorts catered for on menu so had a mix of pie, fish, burger and sandwich. All delicious and avidly consumed.

Excellent experience and amazing range of gluten free choices which as a coeliac is just amazing to see immediately when looking at the menu. Probably the best gluten free fish and chips I’ve had since being diagnosed. Our server Hannah was lovely and extremely tentative and was smitten with our baby who was giving off all the smiles. A lovely experience after a day spent at the Knole. Will be returning with the rest of the family.

My teenage daughter really enjoyed her burger and my wife and I had the beef and venison dishes. Would have liked my venison a bit pinker but we all really enjoyed our meals especially the desserts - I recommend the chocolate stout sponge. Service was...

Best vegetarian roast I've had at a pub. Nice atmosphere and good service.

Everything was fine but when roast pork comes out with undercooked fat, you lose all credibility when charging premium prices

Popped in for lunch Saturday. First time here great service. Partner has the lamb burger and I had the fish n chip's was so fresh and cooked beautifully. The pudding was a delight.

Absolutely fantastic culinary experience. Delicious food, innovative menu and very attentive and friendly service. We will definitely be back when we’re next in the area. Many thanks as well to Mark for his very kind gift to always remember our lunch at the White Hart

A really nice place to stop off for a pint. We didn't eat this time but the food I did see looked amazing. We went mid afternoon on a Sunday and the place was full. I recommend booking if you want to eat.

We (family of four) stopped here for lunch yesterday. We hadn’t booked but they were so welcoming. Seated us immediately and, despite lots of people arriving at the same time, the staff were all really efficient and attentive. The food- we all had a roast- was AMAZING!!! Honestly one of the best roasts I’ve ever had and the family agreed (tried not to take that personally🤪). So much flavour and veg all done to perfection. I honestly can’t fault a thing. Huge compliments to the chefs and all the lovely staff.

Popped in for a quick drink, was busy in the bar which makes a difference. Staff were helpful and friendly. Got busier as we were leaving for people eating. Food smelt amazing, and have added it to my list of places to eat.

The food here was phenomenal! I had the feathered beef! It was melt in the mouth amazing and the jus with the ‘pop’ of tiny onions and delicious mushrooms was gorgeous. The potato dauphinois was as tasty as you can get and the veg was...

Great little spot friendly staff

Our family go to place for a pleasant meal and catch up on lovely surroundings .

Popped in on the way back from Hastings, 4 staff rushed past me at the bar several times but none of them bothered to acknowledge me and then served two different groups who came to the bar after I did so we walked out. If...

Very nice and friendly atmosphere and staff. Accommodating on a busy Friday night with no booking. Cosy interior. Food was nice, but could have been a bit more flavourful.

A charming 'old-school' pub with a beautiful garden. I didn't eat there, but the menu looked good. The staff were very friendly and would happily engage in conversation. From my time there I'd recommend The White Hart pub.

Welcomed pleasantly. Drinks came promptly and food orders taken. All meals were good and the four of us were pleased with our choices. So refreshing to have a menu slightly different from the burgers, pizzas and chips variety. Fairly pricey but worth the expense. Highly...

We came to white heart and sat in the garden, we order few drinks and fish’s and chips with few burgers. After almost 1 hour our food arrived and together with that some excuses, like sorry was a bit of a wait on food.;) ridiculous,...

Excellent food, I require gluten-free and my choice was varied and very nice indeed

Food excellent. Prices reasonable for area. Second visit, standard maintained.

Really enjoyed our lunch at The White Hart. Four of us stopped in on a rainy August (sigh) day. The pub was busy, but the atmosphere was good and the service still attentive. The food we enjoyed a lot, it wasn’t cheap - but what pub food is these days?! Very much recommended.

On my opinion the number 1 pub in Kent just improve your vegetarian options

Super Fish 'n' Chips and Perfect Pint - my wife and I meeting an old school friend of mine - we all chose the same, except Sarah had lime and lemonade. Super Service too - ok, a tad expensive but the great ambiance made it...

We have been to the White Hart a few times now as we are local. Sat night with the family was disappointing though, fish and chips was more batter and chips and the Eton mesh was more vanila cream with a few small pieces of...

Lovely pub. The food is absolutely delicious. The staff are very friendly and helpful. Highly recommended it.

Great food great service in great surroundings

A group of 4 of us - 3 adults and a child popped in without booking for lunch. Greeted really well and shown to a table. We said that we were in a bit of a rush as had tickets for cinema. Nothing was too...

Family party of 6 for Sunday lunch Spacious dining area and a lovely garden

Fantastic place, friendly staff and delicious food.

I’ve eaten here twice and both times been surprised at the breadth of GF options and the seriousness with which they treat gluten free requirements for celiac / coeliac guests. The roast was delicious. Ample outdoor space and room for dogs! Worth booking on Sundays if you want to sit inside as it gets busy.

Shown to table, so uncomfortable tiny church pew. Asked to be moved to another table, only availability was opposite the bar you could hardly hear yourself speak. Waiters and waitresses although very polite could do with some training on how to present drinks & cutlery...

We went there couple of weeks ago for a quick lunch ; Service was friendly and efficient, and the food was amazing! Highly recommend the Burrata 🥰

We had an unplanned visit (A21 was closed) and spent a delightful 3hrs here, what a blessing! It was our Labrador's 12th birthday and all the staff, especially Hannah, made us feel so welcome. The food was delicious, the service was perfect and we had a thoroughly enjoyable afternoon. Thank You!

Lovely pub and gardens but food vastly overpriced and vegetables with Sunday roast inadequate. Service average and staff not overly friendly. Would not go back far better places giving better value and service elsewhere.

Called here on the off chance with friends after a day out as the menu looked to offer something a bit different, as well as standard pub restaurant fare. We were met by a very friendly waitress and opted to sit outside on the nice terrace. Service was efficient and friendly. Great food, the crispy chilli beef salad and milanese chicken with citrus salad and whipped goats curd were highlights. Our friend needs gluten free and was very well catered for as most dishes could be offered gluten free. The desserts were good value as well.
