The White Hart Bar and Restaurant in Wiltshire

🚇 Aldgate East 🍺 £5.30 Amstel ❤️ A proper old school London high street pub. . The White Hart is located on forever busy Whitechapel High Street and just a stones throw away from Aldgate East Tube. . This neck of the woods is undergoing massive redevelopment at present, the local landscape has changed irreversibly over the past couple of years which sadly saw the end of a local and excellent pub The Still & Star, this pub is being replaced by towers of steel, glass and concrete (progress) ☹️ . The White Hart looks like it has been slotted in to the row of buildings it sits along with. This narrow pub is quite simple architecturally and has a traditional pub frontage. At the right hand side of the pub is Gunthorpe Street, a cobblestone narrow alleyway which was a location of one of Jack The Rippers murders. I had a peer up the alleyway and it does have a moody atmospheric feel to it. . Inside, this boozer is long and narrow and does stretch back a fair bit. The decor is traditional with a wooden floor, a bright red panelled bar and lots of bric-à-brac on the walls and ledges. . I visited on a Saturday afternoon and the atmosphere was very lively with a mix of a few locals, tourists and a few lively characters who had been on the sauce all day and had just come back from The Arsenal win over Man U. The beer choice here is simple, I ordered a pint of Amstel which was a good drop and my cheapest pint of the day at £5.30. I must mention the Guvnor, as mentioned earlier there were a few fellas who were raising the noise levels and he calmly kept them in check. I spoke with him briefly, he was from the same part of Ireland my family are from, he’s a big fella and was well in command of this E1 pub. . I love a high street pub, for me there is always that little edge to them about who’s in attendance or who’s going to walk in the door. The welcome and service here were top notch and you will be well looked after. The White Hart is a proper London pub and is a great example of how all pubs used to be around this manor. Top pub, top Guvnor’, nuff said me old china. . 📊 Information correct on visiting 23/04/22

Couldn't review the food as we didn't have any we just popped in for a drink. "Real and cask ales" is what drew us in but there weren't any! Told they had run out! 8 pumps all ran out hmm strange or maybe just not had any for a while.

Brilliant pub and locals and staff so welcoming I will be back on Monday for my birthday

This pub is from 18th century, must visit. However a proper refurbushing ofvthe interior would upgrade the experience.

A proper Pub!!! An Oasis surrounded by tourist traps

Great pub, the landlord was friendly and chatty and the girl behind the bar was also very friendly and quick with serving us. Good mix of people in there, all having fun and singing along to the jukebox. Can't comment on the food as we only had beers, but there was a great selection of beers and all reasonably priced for the location. Definitely worth a visit if you are in the area

Nice bar to drink beer after work. The service behind the counter wasn't very friendly towards us foreigners. The Thai food is tasty, but you have to pay for it as soon as it comes to the table, which was a bit annoying.

Good food, especially thai. Lots of beer. Authentic bar. Worth visiting

Very good traditional thai food in a British pub. Plenty of history on the track of Jack The Ripper

Serves good beer and has Thai restaurant like my wife,s Thai house restaurant in Billericay attentive staff and typically East End pub atmosphere like the Pride of Spitalfields in Henage street .

Always great service and Thai food

Always great service and Thai food

Great little pub in London. Cosy feel, makes you feel like you're away from the hustle and bustle. Good pint of Guinness too!

The pub is fab! Popped in for a quick drink after sight seeing. Barmaids were so quick to serve and welcoming. Saw the food coming out from the kitchen and WOW! Thai food as well as english menu. We ordered beef penang and pork pad Thai......FABULOUS 😋 What a little gem. Husband and wife from thailand cooking....please give them a applause for stunning food. Go visit the White Hart pub Aldgate. You will not be disappointed x

We came here because of the football atmosphere, the Spaniards won, which was also reflected in the mood. The business itself has its own vibe, but don't expect the beer here to be super bottled. It has neither foam nor taste. Disappointing for us.

Decent pub with a good selection of beers. Staff are friendly especially Ian, and you don't have to wait long to be served.

Quaint pub, absolutely recommended!

I saw Real Madrid win the 15th championship, so it will always be a special place

This pub is great by me. As old as the hills and although relatively small, has a nice British/English pub atmosphere. Highlight for me is that it serves Adnams Mosaic Pale Ale, and if that's off, you have Beavertown Neck Oil for a decent pint of ale. Can't say I've ever eaten in there or stayed all night, but for a few pints and a catch up, it gets my vote.

alex and adam are the best!!! 10/10

Nice pub , convenient place to wait

Great Thai food Staff are really nice too Thanks!

Fab spot for a bit of grub and a few beers. Real traditional EastEnd Pub. Staff are great and a good mix of customers. A must see for whitechapel 5*

Friendly, busy. Nice atmosphere

A proper old fashioned pub that is loud, raucous, fun, and non pretentious. It might be small, but it is mighty. Good choice of drinks. Didn't eat there, so cannot comment on the food. Service is prompt, yet friendly. Ticks the boxes.

Nice pub good beer, lots of history

Busy pub around Aldgate East. Short walk from Liverpool Street. Worth a look

Top destination to watch the football. Was very popular. Nice atmosphere and very friendly staff. Took a little while to get food. But it was delicious, fresh, authentic Thai food. Air was a little stale inside the bar - could do with an air change every now and then. Small place, old, historic and popular.

Plenty of characters in this pub.Good beers.

Didn't get food but was a lovely little pub with well priced drinks and the barmaid is lovely. Definitely will return when in the area.

Just typical, good English pub.

I used to come here years ago when the dad ran it... Now it's rude and inattentive and unwelcoming

Good place for a drink, haven’t tried the food yet so I can’t give it a rating. Interesting story about the pub and the “autumn of horror”.

Gezellige pub, Oud en authentieke inrichting.

Amazing place! Amazing New Year 2024, Staff is rockstar!

The Thai food here absolutely amazing. The best food we have had while on our trip in London.

Friendly local, full of character and interesting characters!

Nice friendly neighbourhood pub with good food

A las 21:00h cierran la cocina, después de esa hora tiene buen ambiente para copas.

Pasamos a tomar unas cervezas y bien, de precio adecuado y el ambiente era agradable.

Small but big pub. Super atmoshere with super personal. Nice place for some beers ;)

Classic pub, warm local crowd — absolutely everything we needed for some solace on a cold, frosty December evening. Expect to warm your cockles and to share a few laughs 🤪 with friends! If you bring your friends. Thank you to the publican(s).

Amazing staff, super helpful and a lovely pint.

It's one of the best Guiness pints I've ever had here in london

Great beer and setting with secret authentic Thai food

Staging post for Jack the Ripper tours. Good pub, decent drinks selection

This is an old pub and felt very comfortable for us out of towners

It used to be a good local pub but not anymore. They really need to improve their customer service skills. The Blind Beggar or The Hospital Tavern (just around the corner) offer a much better atmosphere and service.

I always go after college! Good!

Good victorian type pub very popular for the walk tours and great customer service

Consistently good. Great setting

Superb old boozer, great bar staff. Full of characters and a great history. I will return!

Food was lovely. Great atmosphere. Good company

Really nice place to eat and drink food was very good.

Lovely pub with great food and nice and good service.

Great pub with a fascinating history. Good beer and friendly staff, what more could you want.

Very nice little pub prices are excellent 👌

Great pub, good atmosphere in the evening, friendly staff and nice beer

Gemütlich urig typisch britische.

Excellent pub. Wonderful atmosphere and brilliant staff. I highly recommend!

A nice historic bar, good service, and drinks. If you want to duo into the Ripper trail, this is worth a stop or just for a friendly place to chill with a pint.

On entering your pub/restaurant wefound it homely and comfortable. We ordered food and drink with the waitress this was prompt. Food brought finely quick and the presentation was beautiful. What happened then well not sure. We had no check backs to see if food was good. Until we finished and a young waiter took our plates . That's was it no one came back to check if we wanted any dessert or drinks or the bill. I'm in hospitality myself and never leave my customers like this or I would be told by management hope5 this was a over sight on the staff. Sorry to drag on. We all enjoyed the food thoroughly

My friends and I were having a good time chatting and drinking after a dinner together until the bartender asked two of our friends (who were not drinking) to leave. He said “if you don’t have a drink you have to leave” and so we did. Don’t come here unless you want your evening ruined!

Great pub, friendly atmosphere.

Oldest pub. Bar staff friendly. Nice pub for a few beers

Top, geschichtsträchtige Bar... lecker Bier.

They were well before opening time but allowed me to use their toilets. Well worth five stars! That’s all.

I am very excited that my wife and I visited this exceptional old British bar/restaurant they have perfect beer for pretty much decent money, friendly service and good food. If I have a trip to London again I'd love to go back for a few drafts. Thank you for making my holiday enjoyable and also the memories of when I lived in London for a few years.

Very historical feel pub with a nice selection of ales and friendly staff, happy to chat. We stopped by for one drink and it was the ideal place for it, but the pub-grub looks solid as well, so I would be happy to pop back for some food another time.

Great pub to end the day great service . Staff were friendly and courteous.

A traditional pub offering a delicious Sunday Carvery, a generous portion of meat is offered and you can have a cut of each joint if you’d like to, the meat is very tasty and succulent. Help yourself to the great selection of perfectly cooked vegetables, top it all off with the thick, flavourful gravy. Puddings, we were told are homemade… the sticky toffee was mouthwatering. The wine is very reasonably priced and very good. Parking is easy on the high Street or there is a carpark opposite which is not pricey.

Good location but just an OK pub. Not bad at all, nothing special

Friendly staff, great food and ideal for pre-gig in The Old Stables. We would highly recommend this pub having eaten there before and always been impressed. Check out the chicken and chorizo tagine. It was delicious.

Had a couple.of nice beers here

great tasting thai food.the fish and chips was not half bad either.would go again to eat of ever back in thr area

Great Ripper pub with a nice cold pint served by friendly staff.

Amazing pub, been here since Jack the ripper times. Great drink selection, home cooked Thai food and a historical setting!

Great we pub with some history attached to it regarding Jack the Ribber. Worth a visit

Fantastic bar, great staff and beer and food is fantastic, location what more can I say

A pleasant historic pub, one of London's oldest. Famous for Jack the Ripper. A good spot for a small group to watch some sports. There is Thai food here, separate from the bar itself. The staff is friendly and helpful. The bathrooms here are clean in the back. It is a quaint place for a quick pint.

Never had any food. Friendly staff good service. No complaints.

Lovely spot. The staff were friendly and went out of the way to get a recommendation for a Greek restaurant. We ended up eating there. They have a Thai kitchen and it was very good. Fantastic spot.

I loved this historic pub when I visited the uk

The best pub in Aldgate. Great staff, cheap pints and a nice little smoking area at the back. Highly recommend

Thai food and fish& chip were amazing! Beer is nice and cold.!

Great pub with fantastic history and Thai food

Compassionate Neighbours, St Joseph's Hospice have a monthly hub called A Hub in the Pub. Every 1st Monday of the month It has a great quiz and a sing-along

Friendly staff, Central, cheap drinks.

Old spit on the floor type of pub

Absolutely one of the best pubs I have ever been to!! Wish it was nearer Old Town where I live. My mate & I arrived mid afternoon on a Saturday after going to a Cat Show....and thanks to the chef, we were able to get some grub even though it was close to the end of meal service. I am so glad he did....the food was of an extremely high standard - it was hot, tasty & OMG the chips were so scrummy! The bar-staff were friendly & the place is so relaxed. I will definitely be back here again in the not too distant future....and I will definitely recommend this place too. Definitely 10/10!!

No coffee being served or food available on a Sunday

A really nice historical pub visited yesterday with my wife on her birthday and not to far from the Jack the Ripper museum which we also visited 👍and we had lunch delicious Thai food 😋🍜🍚👍

I went for supper here yesterday with a friend, and had their maple syrup bacon burger. It really was the best burger I've had in a very long time. Excellent!

Nice atmosphere, friendly staff

Thai food simply amazing, chef is amazing and would definitely be back!

Today was my birthday night and we went to the pub to get a few more drinks. When my friends went up to the bar the lady said they're not serving anymore, to which they asked to just get some tap water. There were two men sitting by the bar, who said "it's good friday dont you get it in whatever country you are from?". One of my friends is from Cuba, so she said that no, she doesn't have that in Cuba they started to laughing at her. When they finished, they went outside to smoke a cigarette, so I went to the bar lady to let her know she was disrespectful to my friends (We're all young women, and we're a bit worried of confronting men, so I went to the female bartender instead to feel safe while walking about my concerns). I told her that's just so she knows, the men were really rude and condescending to my friends, to which she answered "I don't care if you had a bad day, there's a pub next door", and when I tried to be nice saying that I understand and work behind the bar as well and I just wanted to let her know these men were sexist she replied "it's not my problem, if you had a bad day just go to the other pub and bother people in there". Terribly rude person, and I wouldn't recommend for anyone to go there anytime. Don't EVER go there, the lady made me cry on my birthday and I will definitely never go back there :))

Nice iconic place with good beer and great food.

Great pub in partnership with a fantastic Thai restaurant in the rear. A good selection of beers and a reasonably priced menu. Really friendly and helpful staff. Definitely back in a few weeks.

Great out, friendly staff, warm and cosy 👍🏻
