The White Hart in Staffordshire Moorlands

Hands down the worst pub I’ve ever stepped foot in, picture the scene it’s Christmas Eve 7pm and you walk in only to be hit with a string Odour of what I can only describe as urinal/toilet smell... no music.. no atmosphere just wanted to get out as quickly as I’d walked in... in fact that’s what I did. GOT OUT!

I play in the local rock covers band 'Wayman' & on the night we played at the pub, decided to have my evening meal with family & friends who had come to watch us. I was pleasantly surprised at the quality of the food provided which was all home cooked & great value. My steak pie contained real steak in large chunks with a light pastry topping which was delicious. Also my partner is vegetarian & chose the vegetarian lasagne. She said it was the best she's ever had after trying other pubs in the area. We would happily eat there again because it's the best food in Tean.

Me and my family went in October for a lovely meal and the prices was okay felt very welcome , definitely coming again

Me and the better half called in for lunch yesterday,after perusing the varied menu I opted for the beef lasagna whilst it should have come with salad and garlic bread I requested to have it with chips and peas which was no problem , when it came it was grand standing up tall and covered in melting cheese full of delicious lean minced beef.whilst her indoors had ordered chicken,mushroom and bacon tagaltalie which came in a large bowl with two delicious pieces of garlic bread the chicken was plentiful as was the bacon and mushrooms and the sauce was no ordinary bland white sauce this was thick glossy packed to the rafters with taste bud tingling flavours simply orgasmic .well worth the money we paid.

Foods always nice when visiting here, great price although portions could be bigger but I’d visit again.

Lovely atmosphere to begin with with our first drink, ordered food, enjoying it, however spoilt by someone playing with the volume of the music, a couple left & a group moved but we were in the middle of eating....will not rush to return due to the lack of respect for other customers

We had a very tasty and well cooked lunch at The White Hart today. I had a falafel and portobello burger in a brioche bun with excellent chips and a nicely dressed salad. My husband had a creamy pork and mushroom stroganoff with rice. We were both very pleasantly surprised and weren't expecting the high standard of cooking. The meals were also excellent value. We will certainly be returning! (I would have given 5 stars for service, food and value but it's not working)

Friendly pub with good beer and great service. Clean and tidy with no pretentions. Wish it was my local! Everything a good pub should be. Will go again and looking forward to doing so. Excellent.

We go here on a regular basis for an evening meal and have never had a bad one, nor a cause for complaint. It's straight forward food, what you order is what you get. Always very hot and quick service. Unfortunately I believe the chef is off at the moment so haven't been for a meal for a couple of weeks, but will be back as soon as they start serving food again (probably before then actually for a pint or two)

Came here recently for some tea. The waiting time was slightly long and the pub didn't seem too full however, the food was lovely. Big portion sizes so you get enough for your money! Lovely atmosphere and nice and cosy in the winter when the fire is in :-)

This was our first visit to this pub although we only live a few miles away. What a lovely friendly pub serving excellent food at a good price. We will certainly be back.

The White Hart has just taken on a new head chef Jane Atkinson. The food was good in the past but it's superb now with comforting winter dishes of Goulash, Stroganoff and Bubble and Squeak on the Specials board. Jane has been hard at work trying out other new dishes, all cooked to order, with seasonal local produce and has received fantastic feedback. Give it a try and post your comments here, making The White Hart the new place to be seen in Tean!

Was here with some friends for afternoon drinks so no food was consumed. The log fire was roaring away and really set the tone for a relaxing couple of drinks. As it was a bitter cold afternoon it was a relief to see the fire was lit. Staff served us quickly and made us feel really welcome. Nice visit

Great little pub. Nice beer and atmosphere. Nice all year round but lovely and cosy in the winter when the open fire is burning away!

Super food as always. My Dad had the steak and ale pie and he said it was the best pie he had ever eaten. Food is always very good and would definitely recommend. Lovely pub with a good atmosphere for families too.

On the way to Alton Towers we decided to stop off and eat and came across this pub via trip advisor. What a great choice!! The place and staff are very welcoming and all of us really enjoyed our food you could tell it was fresh! The bill was very reasonable and will definitely come here again

Just found this place passing through on a road trip was so amazed to find this hidden gem Excellent Craic fantastic food and welcoming bar staff

Visited this pub last week. Stayed across the road in the bulls head but quickly regretted booking our stay with them as soon as we visited the white heart. The food was lovely great value for money the staff were very charming and welcoming I even got a free cuppa because I had to wait a few minutes for a tea spoon lol. Would definitely recommend this place for anyone looking for a relaxing break away. Next time I know to book the white hart ( lesson learnt)

Cracking pub, great beer and excellent food, the food is excellent value for money, big portions, homemade, real chips! Eat here regular as we know we're going to get a good meal and service, landlord is a lovely jolly guy to! The real fire is great in the winter.

As a family we have been using the Hart for about 3 years. However the food is now simply the best ever, great Chef great Landlord (superb ales), and outstanding value for money.Thanks to all at the Hart!!

We always visit the White Hart on a Tuesday evening for the quiz which is always well supported. Decided to dine here before the quiz, a good menu available and the food was very nice, served hot and could not fault it. Dined with friends we all had different dishes and everyone was pleased with their dish. A very good start to a great evening. Hope the chef stays here and would highly recommend and eat here again.

I have been to The White Hart a few times now and have never been disappointed. The food is always fresh, hot and tasty and the chef is very accommodating. With food being served throughout the day, my husband and I have been in for both lunch and dinner on varying occasions. The steaks are a particular favourite of mine, although to be fair, I've tried a number of dishes off the varied menus (both bar snack and main) and enjoyed every one. The staff are always welcoming and make everyone feel at home, as do the regular locals. It is genuinely a lovely local pub. There is always a selection of cask ales available (Pedigree is always on hand pull, along with a rotating selection of guest beers). My husband and I will continue to be regular visitors.

I am quickly becoming a regular here, especially on a Thursday. Steak night in amazing, steak is cooked to perfection, sauces are delicious and the chips are very moreish. To top it off they have good cask ales and a fire to help warm you up. Recommended to everyone I know, and don't know!!!!

First time I'd being for years food was great I had steak one friend had lasagna And other had burger good value for money and you could tell it was all fresh and home made great staff And atmosphere as well

A new chef has taken over absolutely lovely food! All homemade been twice and both meals were fantastic! As a veggie I struggle but there are a few options I highly recommend if you want homemade good grub! And my little girl loved the chocolate put. Thank you will be coming again

In december we came here for a family sunday dinner and what an experience!! The staff were lovely and the food was amazing!! We had a big style sunday dinner with all meats and the portions were fab (way more than your average pub grub) a family member is vegetarian but she was catered for with no problem. The pub had a wonderful warm family atmosphere and i would reccomend this to anyone and its a bonus that the food is lush!!

Visited this pub for sunday lunch and on entering was immediately made to feel welcome by the staff, the prices for both food and drink were excellent!! And you certainly get more than your moneys worth. The food was fab!! Well cooked and even had the chef come and speak to us personally to cater for a vegetarian in the group. It seems the staff cant do enough for you and i would recommend taking the time to eating here as its just delicious!!! Will definately be returning!!

I decided to try the food here as we heard there was a new chef. I went with my two kids and I have never seen my 4 yr old son eat as much food as he did tonight! He also wants to go back as the food was beautiful.....what can I say other than it was absolutely bang on! Steak came out medium as requested, knocks spots off rare the steak house! We will defo be going again :-)

Lovely pub, food is great. Bar staff friendly. Had a little snack from the menu, very nice. Really should go here more often!

The White Hart hotel has had a complete refurbishment.and is now a modern sophisticated welcoming hotel, bar, and modern fine dining restaurant, serving a imaginative menu to suit all palates, and at a reasonable price, with service you will be pleased with.If your looking for somewhere stylish and different try this exciting new venue for the area.Ŵilf Hodgson

We go to this pub regularly for a great relaxing environment where we know we can take our 2 kids without trouble.The food is always plentiful and of the best quality and at a price everyone could afford ! Highly recommended

Decided to put pen to paper as people are quick to complain but credit where it's due. This pub has had a recent refurb is quite spacious, clean and comfortable and has car parking available round the back. We were made very welcome on arrival and enjoyed some really good food. There were 4 of us - 3 had garlic mushrooms on toasted ciabatta - good to dip in and 1 had pate which was also good. Our Mains choice was 3 x steak & ale pie which had a light pastry crust top and was served with great tasting chips and peas and 1 x Lasagne with salad, chips and garlic bread - they were all very tasty. Noticed they do a curry night and a steak night (available all the time as well) so will definitely pay another visit. Look forward to working through the menu!

I visited this pub with my children for Sunday lunch I was very happy with the food we got the beef was delicious. And the portion size was perfect We were made to feel very welcome by the owner of the pub the new chef and the bar staff. There wasnt much of a waiting time for our food which was great with 3 young children. I will defo be returning for seconds (Christmas day infact). :)

I had not been to the White Hart pub in some time after having a few less than welcoming visits under its previous managers/owners. So, after seeing how the new management had taken care in brightening up the exterior with fresh paint and lovely new signs and a good scrub of the windows and inside bar area, I started to feel confident that the White Heart was moving in the right direction and, after a return visit in the last wee,k my confidence was not unfounded.The atmosphere was jovial and it was good to see a healthy number of people inside enjoying the good conversation and sound selection of larger, spirits and soft drinks. Although, some local ales would be a very welcome addition.A simple food menu was on offer until 9pm and had all the expected pub meals on offer, at prices that won't make you feel guilty for grabbing a burger with your pint.One of the nice things about this pub is the number of little corners and tables dotted about, so you can be as close or far from the local 'banter' as you want to be.There is a pool table if you should want a game, and they have a list of White Hart events that occur on a weekly basis from acoustic nights, to cribbage and quiz night (I shall be checking this out, as I love a pub quiz).It may not be the best small local pub I have ever visited but the White Hart does have the buzz of "hidden potential" about it that I find alluring.I am hoping that as the weather gets warmer it makes good use of its outside space and put a bbq or 2 on and embraces the village and high street to its fullest.This is a pub to watch!!

Excellent home cooked food, fantastic service and a great pint. Making you very welcome. Recommended.

This pub isn't my local but I do always choose to come here over many others that I could choose from. The food is always freshly cooked and the owner himself does the cooking ... Which he does an excellent job of. The menu is well put together and the food is tasty and good value.The drinks are also competitively priced and there is a good selection of guest ales aswell as other beers on tap.The staff are always very welcoming and enjoy people coming to the pub ... You don't have to be a local to come and eat or drink at the White Hart.Many Thanks

We have been using the "Hart" for the last six months, this pub is a traditional family run establishment offering excellent value for money food and real ales.A warm welcome is guaranteed for all, whether a regular or a one off visitor and live entertainment combined with a great atmosphere genuinely results in a great night out.Thanks to all at The "Hart"

Stopped off here on way home from Lake District trip (found via this app). Sunday lunch menu was very limited (3 mains in total), but that optimistically made me think they'd be good. But they weren't! Veggie option was a tart, which was served cold! and somewhat stale/dry, with some veg cooked/reheated to oblivion. Served with gravy (on a cheese tart!?). Soups where edible, and beer was quite good. We'll find somewhere else for stop off next time.

This is quite a nice local pub and the local people were very friendly. However the same could not be said about the staff on this visit. It took a long wait to order food and drinks and then they got the drinks mixed up. No apology for such a long wait, in fact they were totally unaware of it. Food was okay but not particularly generous portions and as I have said quite small in size. I think with a little more focus on customer service it could be so much better. I think the landlord does the cooking so is probably not that aware of front of house service.

Nice village pub and the customers were friendly. Food was nice but small portions. On the evening that we visited the staff appeared in quite a confused state. It took over 20 minutes to get our food and drinks ordered. The girl spent ages at the till then had to ask someone to do it for her. Our drinks were wrong but no apology. Apart from that we had nice evening but I would not say the food was outstanding and the staff could have been friendlier and a little more customer focused. Perhaps because we were not locals.

We returned to the White Hart today, a pub that we love due to it`s fantastic landlord and staff and real pub atmosphere, after a disappointing xmas meal served by the chef at that time. However what a superb meal we had today courtesy of Martin the new chef. We have eaten in some starred restaurants but my starter of chicken fillet strips in bbq sauce served on a dressed salad was so light and delicious and my husbands garlic mushrooms were superb. Top that with 2 fantastic and elegantly presented Sunday roasts, polite but efficient staff and of course Andy the owner who always makes us feel so welcome and you have a winning combination. Well done and we can`t wait for the medieval banquet!!!

Ate there this evening - new chefs first week - and a brilliant new menu. spoiled for choice. Fast and friendly service. excellent value for money. Food presented very nicely and was piping hot. Excellent - ill be back!

this is a very good value for money pub. menu is a little limited, the food quality is excellent and it serves cask ales which my husband loves. and they dont overcharge for the wine either, they do have entertainment occasionally at the weekends, well worth a visit.

The White Hart is a nice, warm, friendly pub that has good honest food, which is reasonably priced would recommend for family and friends.

Thanks for our complimentary meal it was gratefully received and we really enjoyed the food. Service was very good, Thanks again.

Popped in for a pint and a bite absolutely stuffed and warm when I left lovely atmosphere and very service I had A blue steak and it was done to perfection and the home cooked chips are amazing

Four of us had a meal tonight 9th December 2013. Three of us had steak and it's the first steak we've had where you don't actually need a knife to cut it as it was so soft it just fell apart. It was rump steak but the quality of fillet and only cost £6.95. The service was fantastic, so quick and we received a meal check from the chef and also from the barmaid. We thoroughly recommend this place.

Really like this pub been on several occasions but was let down on Sunday with the food service. Party of 12 booked in for Sunday lunch but unfortunately the first served in our party had eaten theirs by the time the last 4 received their meals. Great food just let down by the serving. Will use again but not with a big party. Disappointed with lack of apology.

The White hart in tean is one of the best pub I have been to in a long time. The staff are incredibly friendly and helpful. The drinks are perfect everytime and there is always a good range of real ales to sample.The food is 5Star. Always piping hot, beautifully flavoured and always decent portions.home made chips are to die for here.As for the prices....well...just go and look for yourself. Your draw will drop with amazement. Such value!!!!!The weekly quiz night is always a laugh and free to enter which is nice and there is always prizes to be won. In regards to entertainment there are regularly great bands on which is a refreshing change from crappy kareoke and stuff you get elsewhere.Next visit soon!!!! (next week in fact)

If ever you are in Tean you must visit the White Hart. Lovely atmosphere and the regulars are most welcoming.Keep up the good work Andy and Kerris

If you find yourself in the staffordshire village of Tean, pop into the White Hart pub. Newly refurbished,and run by an eccentric family who actually care for their customers.Real ales (cask mark accredited) Value food,not an extensive menu but one that covers all appetites. No music blasting out, (there is a duke box but in the back room with the pool table)There are music nights,mainly weekends but also a unique jamming session on mondays where you can turn up with an instrument and have a go or bash one of supplied percussion instuments.Also a weekly quiz. And no sky so no lager louts!
