The White Hart Country Inn in South Cambridgeshire - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Since this venue changed hands it's standards of service and provision have gone through the roof. The food is excellent and the staff are charming. I cannot recommend The White Hart highly enough.

We stayed here for one night after a New Market event. The room was absolutely disgusting. It was dirty and actually lots of hazards we was told we was upgraded as our room was being refurbished. When the lady took us into our room there was random empty draws on the bed and she said sorry I don't know why these are in here. Anyway the first thing I noticed was the floor. We had part tile which as badly grouted with screws sticking up, and tiles lifting. There was bare ply steps which were a splinter hazard to say the least. Live wires randomly coming out of the floor. There was lots of bugs everywhere and the room had definitely not been cleaned in ages and sheets had hairs in them. The bathroom door was dangerous as it was getting stuck on the floor and I caught my foot in it several times. I have given 2 stars as the food was nice but unfortunately we would never stay here again as I've got to say it was the worst place I have ever stayed in. It's a shame we was in such a rush or I would have complained and gone else where. Hopefully after the refurb it might get better but I won't be trying it out as feel the room shouldn't have been available in this state anyway. I think the photos speak for them selves. I would not stay here again if you paid me.

We just had a lovely stay and a warm welcome. We had lunch and I had a yummy lunch. We stayed the night and although our room was still being decorated. It was a comfy bed and nice shower. Thank you for a lovely day

This place is fantastic. The meal was delicious and the service was faultless they went above and beyond to make our experience a good one. Great beer also! Thank you

Don't waste your money. Menu sounded promising, but after a 2 hour wait for our food, most disappointing. Nothing like description, lamb extremely fatty and tough, no flavour to the food, would not recommend.

Really lovely food and very friendly staff. The turkish food was delicious. We had a meze starter. Would definitely go back.

Rooms rather tired but new landlord in the process of refurbishment. All staff very good went out of their way to help. Had breakfast and dinner and all food was very good freshly cooked and well presented. Our best wishes to all at The White Hart for the future.

Celebrating a Birthday with Family, table of 8. Such a let down as have eaten here several times in the past but won't be going back. Poor service, poor food which was expensive for what we got and to top it all we couldn't have deserts because rhe Chef (if they actualy have a chef) finishes at 8.30 on a Friday. Very dissappinting and felt bad for my elderly Mum who wanted to treat us all.

So disappointing. Visited on Friday evening with family to celebrate my elderly Mums Birthday, service was poor and incredibly slow the food didn't justify the time it took to get to us. To cap off the evening we were denied deserts because the Chef (if they actualy have one ) finished at 8.30. Having visited the White Hart successfully several times in the past we won't be back sadly.

This is my home away from home. This Friendly Tavern is a hidden gem offering exceptional Turkish cuisine and warm hospitality. Their kebabs are perfectly seasoned and juicy and somethingi always look forward too. The cozy, inviting atmosphere and friendly staff make every visit special. Whether you're a local or just passing through, this pub is a must-visit for a memorable dining experience with a personal touch. Highly recommended! The locals are alright to 😀

I went there just for a meal yesterday! They were just amazing! The new management is just the best. I liked it so much that I came back today. I forgot her name, but my guess is that she is the new manager. She remembered what beer I took in the previous day and also what my son had for meal.

Came here for father's day. Has completely changed from the usual Sunday lunch and it now has a Greek hint to the menu. We both had the beef and it very pleasant. The meat was tender and very well presented on roast potatoes and was excellent. Staff were friendly and helpful. Was a bit more expensive then the usual Sunday roast but well worth it. Would definitely come again. Highly recommend.

We live in the next village and have passed by the pub so many times. We had seen the new menu and decided to give it a try, we were t disappointed. We had the Turkish dishes for starter and main and they they were delicious. We would definitely go back and as they have more traditional pub fair we could take my parents who prefer more traditional pub food. Was also good value and didn’t feel rushed. Staff were very friendly. Will definitely be back.

Honestly terrible. We arrived during the stated check in times on the website and was told by the lady at the bar that the owner was at the shop so we’d need to wait until he was back. We were already late to a wedding due to an accident on the motorway, so after waiting for around 10/15 mins said we couldn’t wait any longer and asked if we could leave our bags and check in after the wedding at around half past midnight. She confirmed that was fine and someone would be there to check us in, so we arrived at the property after the wedding and it was all locked up and no one was around. After calling the number on the website and ringing the bell multiple times with no luck, we had to sleep on our friend’s floor to avoid being stranded in the middle of the night with our belongings in the property! We spoke to the owner the next morning and he promised a full refund, which he subsequently confirmed on the phone… a month later and he offered a partial refund (which I refused) and then said he is not willing to give us the refund that was promised. The management team need to sort out their check in protocol - there should be someone on site at all times during the stated check in hours who is able to check guests in and staff shouldn’t tell guests they can leave belongings and check in late if it can’t actually be accommodated! Avoid at all costs!

We went in for Sunday lunch to try it out. The food is out of this world - the potatoes were crisp, the smoked tomahawk was stunning and the gravy was to die for. We will return again without doubt.

What a wonderful place to stay, cute and cosy. Cannot fault the staff, they went above and beyond for myself and my wife to ensure we had a great stay. When we arrived, we were running late to a wedding and Christoph the landlord even offered to drop us there which was so kind of him. Breakfast was lovely, I would definitely return again.

Thank goodness the new landlords have turned this place around! A wonderful place for a drink and fantastic food! Let’s hope they stay!!

Chris was absolutely wonderful. A genuine guy, I would return on that basis. The guy is trying to make the abode as good as possible well done Chris, see you next time

Amazing food, couldn’t fault a thing. Not your usual pub grub at all. Can’t wait to try more

Poor attention to detail. Small rooms but high prices. £100 for a small room with cramped bathroom . Dirty and mouldy shower, cobwebs everywhere . Not much attention to the rooms No food served on my stay due to a ' technical issue'. Found a decent pub for food up the road. When I came back, people were eating in the restaurant. Bizarre. Expect better from Greene King !!!

We went here for drinks. Next time we will have a meal as the menu looked really good

Amazing tomahawk steaks! We brought the whole unruly 12 of us and the staff were so helpful. The chef ia whizz.

The White Hart inn Fulbourn.. what an incredible little gem! The owner is an incredibly accommodating! We had a surprise leaving for one of our colleagues and it was incredible. Interior of white hart is chick rustic and cosy. Delicious food! If you work in Cambridge, certainly recommend visiting for lunch or an evening dinner. Thank you!

Rooms a bit small and need a bit of TLC; however, I cannot fault how well I was looked after by the owners. Great service, good food and really friendly.

We had a lovely meal at The White Hart pub at the weekend. The food was amazing! Highly recommend!

Highly recommend! The food was delicious and service was excellent! 👍

Arrived 24th February with 2 minutes to end of lunch service. Met with a warm welcome and smile. Selected meat and vegetarian meals. Highly recommend excellent family meal and service. Will definitely go again and we live in Oxfordshire

We had a pub lunch and it was delicious! Great service 😊

We had an absolutely amazing Sunday lunch at the White Hart, everything was perfect & all 8 of us would/will come back. The people who run the pub have been there for 6 weeks ... they are helpful, friendly and exactly what this pub needed. Thank you to you all for the delicious food, great service and for your attention to detail.

Lovely place, great food, excellent staff… highly recommended!

What a shame, rooms for £100 are ok but tired, clean and tidy though. Service was attentive but the younger staff don't understand what a restaurant should be like. Starter was my own poor choice but the ribeye steak arrived seconds after the starter with no questions as to how I'd like it cooked, not sure why I didn't get any cutlery. Chips were oven chips and the veg was slimy slightly cold and tasted tinned. The member of staff who did ask how things were was obviously embarrassed about my comments and there's an under new management sign outside. Not sure if it's bar or table service as I had a bit of both, don't expect to be asked what wine, beer or how you'd like things cooked. You'll have to be proactive for that. I was staying there but went to another pub in the village after the meal. A real disappointment.

2 of us came here on a Friday night for a drink and a snack. The interior is SO nice. Im kicking myself for not taken any photos! Rustic farmhouse conversion style space with wooden beams, flowers on each table and a display for wine. We shared a plaice and chips - so delicious, really crispy and not greasy at all. I would definitely come again to try try other dishes on the menu. The staff were all lovely and the place had a really relaxed vibe to it. All that was missing was a comfy armchair to enjoy a pint in :) Highly recommended!

Only a quick visit this time, tasty food and excellent service. Thank you. Update (dec 2023) NOW 1 STAR Have been here many times over the last 6 years, but today arrived to find a new management sign. When we went in it was empty apart from one other couple. The staff member who greeted us said he could possibly squeeze us in and we were literally squeezed in a corner next to the only other couple in the room. A nice lady then cleared and wiped the table, and took our drinks order (there was no drinks menu), she then came back to ask if pinot grigio was white wine. We were given a very limited menu, no traditional food, -no fish and chips, pies etc.we were disappointed but chose croque monsieur. However after half an hour no one had come to take our order . We caught the nice lady as she cleared the table of the other couple , and she said there would be a considerable wait. We had already been there 40 mins. So we went to the bar paid for our drinks and left. There is no mention on the website of the new management and reduced menu, and we were VERY disappointed with our visit. I hope this is just teething trouble, and they can get their act together, because this has been a great pub for years, and we've had lots of great meals here. Sorry to say we probably wont be back.

The White hart is under new management, started last week without enough rehearsals. Service very slow in the restaurant, only two tables occupied. Menu now limited plaice in batter was replaced with cod in batter, what turned up was cod in breadcrumbs! The chips were fine. No kids menu and no dessert menu. Chef came out to intimidate for asking for dessert menu. Room was booked for a one night stay we were shown in to a tiny room where the double bed was jammed against two walls. There was also a terrible drains smell. We decided to leave and brave the freezing fog on the M25 rather than stay there. The menu on their Web site us out of date

We went for Sunday roast. We liked the location and the fact that dogs are allowed. It is warm and cosy pub. Pork was lovely, vegetarian quorn roast was enjoyable, gravy (both of them) was tasteful, just vegetables and roast potatoes could have been better. Delicious desert. Nice and friendly staff. I personally say slightly overpriced for what it was.

4.5 really as all the food we wanted to order was unavailable, but what we did have was excellent (steak & veg burger). Stayed overnight here, which was as comfortable as expected. Professional, friendly & attentive staff. Breakfast was very nice with endless very well made coffee.

Have an amazing meal here and we brought our little puppy. They could not help us enough. The food was really amazing. I would recommend it to anyone. Unfortunately it was not that busy so I hope they get the support they deserve. The place is clean and looks like a recent refurb. Give it a go!

We loved this place and the friendly welcome we received when we arrived. Our room was spotless and had everything we needed. After a great night's sleep and a good shower using lovely fluffy towels, we went down for breakfast, served between 7.30am and 9.30am we were told, at 8.45am approximately. We were the only diners and our breakfast looked good when it arrived, but it was cold which is why overall we can't 5 star rate our stay. The coffee was not good either compared with the great coffee the lovely woman on duty when we arrived made us after our night out on Tuesday 24th. We just felt little things were missing as well at breakfast, like clean side plates for toast rather than everything lumped onto one plate. There were jams for toast provided so a fresh plate would have been good. It felt as if providing us with breakfast was a bit of an effort given we were the last to be served assuming there were others staying. We didn't see anyone else! We'd like to return knowing next time we'd enjoy our breakfast as we did love the place and there was good parking too.

Great food, short waiting time, polite service, I recommend

Excellent food, excellent service and couldn't accommodate better my request for a quiet area to take an important zoom call. Really grateful, I will be back and will defo give their sister pub in Cambridge a visit - The Old Spring.

The review is about the pub, as Google Maps has only the hotel. Location is nice and charming, nice service and big parking. The issue was the food, really mediocre.

Needs revamp up grade in the rooms

Very stylish and modern with a lovely country feel. Had a tasty breakfast with professional and friendly service from Gino! He was very attentive and polite. Definitely recommend a visit! We will be dining there again for an evening meal very soon!

I dont usually leave reviews but felt i should on this occasion. I came here yesterday for Sunday turkey roast. Arrived at 12:30 and it was empty all but one table. We ordered and food came out in minutes (obviosly microwaved) ........ it was by far, the worst roast i have ever had in a pub or restaurant Potatoes were bland n tasteless, (not seasoned). The turkey looked n tasted like a Bernard Mathews packet slice of turkey, again no taste. Gravy was like water. There was absolutely no seasoning on it at all. To summise, it was a bland tasteless microwaved meal. The venue is beautiful, staff were polite, helpful and efficient but food was terrible. The family sitting at table next to us, all left at least half of their food, as did my mrs. Come on guys, sort it out. Its not of an acceptable quality to serve to paying customers.

Great food and friendly service, my dog was welcome in the snug - very comfortable

This is a pleasant-looking pub, so the experience should be enjoyable. Unfortunately, the food was not as good as the venue. It was not very busy at lunchtime on a Sunday, which is probably a sign. Some of us had roasts and the meat was tough and overcooked. The service was slow, although the staff were friendly. The desserts were not very nice. There is free parking at the rear.

Just visited for a Sunday roast for a family get together. Chose this pub as we have come here over the last few years and a very positive experience the last time was Dec 2022. Start with the positives waitress was very pleasant and took our order quickly and they were helpful. Now the Bad!!! We ordered 2 x roast pork and 4 x roast beef, £15.95 and £16.95 prices 1 x duck Salad 2 x Cajun Chicken. Meals came out quickly the duck was nearly non existent and hard by all accounts and the pork dinners were pork medallions so not from a pork roast, the beef was absolutely diabolical, it had definitely not come from a joint. It had been put in the microwave!!! Yorkshire pudding was OK, veg was carrots, cabbage and courgette which looked pre packed, again microwaved, Roast potatoes were OK not the best I have had again I suspect from a packet. I told the pleasant waitress that this was probably my worst roast dinner in a pub and will not be returning. Refused to pay full price for the 4 x roast dinners, the manager wasn't even present and had to be called to approve the removal of 1 roast beef as compensation, considering there was beef left on all 4 plates! You cannot charge prices like that for roast dinners when its out of a packet! Alarm bells should have rung when we walked in as the place was 1/4 full at 1pm on a Sunday. This pub has always used to be full and the food was great, maybe its changed hands. Steer Clear we wont be returning......

Very basic room and a bit tatty. Slept ok though and breakfast was tasty.

I popped in today for a spontaneous lunch date with my 3 year old son. I’ve never been before and was pleasantly surprised! Arriving anywhere with a hangry toddler isn’t easy, but the woman serving the bar and tables was amazing with him. She even let him have a little after dinner chocolate to buy me time to look at the menu and place an order ~ if it wasn’t for her my experience could have been very different. I had a pizza, clearly fresh dough, loaded with a selection of beautiful cheeses and fresh basil. My son had a kids fish and chips and thoroughly enjoyed it. We had some nice cordials in the courtyard garden and even my son’s drink had a lovely fruit garnish. Although we sat outside the restaurant inside was incredibly attractive. I only live up the road and have just found a decent all-round pub, suitable for everything from child friendly lunches and refreshments to nice evening dinners with friends. Again, I cannot praise the woman who served us enough - she was attentive, thoughtful and helpful. Thank you!

Excellent service, excellent food, great atmosphere in an exceptionally well run pub restaurant. It was our first visit and on Father's Day and there were 7 plus a child. We will definitely be returning.

I have arrived on a Saturday evening at this pub and it was suspiciously empty. The place looked nice inside. I haven’t stayed at the hotel, I’ve had a pizza there and it was terrible, just a ready pizza served at a pub price, not tasty at all. I’ve refused the pizza and I’ve asked if I still have to pay for it and the reply was that I was the only person who didn’t like it and I still have to pay for it. It is obvious that I will not set foot there again. I’ve also ordered a prawn cocktail starter with brown bread and I’ve received a cocktail that you can find in the stores with some salad and dressing. The bread was just regular sliced bread, not a proper bread from a bakery. The price was nearly £9 for that, so overpriced for something so mediocre. I would give this place a miss if you want to eat a proper meal! Really disappointed about this place and the prices are quite steep as well.

Nice interior with regards to the restaurant, but the rest does let it down, stayed here for three nights with my wife, daughter, and her boyfriend as we were attending a wedding on the Friday, accommodation was extremely basic to say the least and hygiene was borderline, you could clearly see where dirt remained on doors where they’ve been pushed shut, which indicated they hadn’t been clean for sometime, regards to the breakfast as this was in with the accommodation was okay, but it would’ve been nice if it would’ve been hot and not borderline cold, we dined in the restaurant in the evenings twice, but again, unfortunately was let down by the food one of the dishes we had was a chicken kebab with a wrap and chips, which was a mistake, the chicken was dry and the bread that came with it was very hard, only thing that was reasonably decent was the chips, we wasn’t asked if we enjoyed meals, so I mentioned this upon paying and all I got was sorry about that so I just paid then left, I did notice someone else complained about their room upon departure and again was met with the same sorry about that, then they left to pack their car. I noticed that no feedback was given to the manager that was standing about 15 feet away, on our last night, we decided to give them another chance and we ate in the restaurant again, but unfortunately when I complained with regards to the home-made chicken and ham and mushroom pie was burnt and tasted burnt, again all I was met with was sorry about that, it dose seem that none of the feedback gets back to the kitchen or the manager, gives you the impression they don’t really care because they know that the pub is just a stopgap and the chances of you returning is somewhat rare, I can guarantee we won’t be staying there again if up that way.

This is my lovely local pub having moved into the village just before our first lockdown. What a beautiful village pub. My first visit couldn’t have been more nicer.Friendly, that’s including dogs in the bar also, which is great for me and no doubt a lot of other owners during lockdown when everyone got a puppy!! I call in on my way home for a glass of wine and the hospitality and service is excellent. They remember my name and my tipple. We have eaten here a couple of times and the food is excellent. A huge thank you to all of the staff. Well worth a visit. Thank You.

A usual meeting up place with friends. We enjoyed a lovely meal, as always, and good service.

Decent meal, drinks hugely expensive, 10% on bill not acceptable asked for it to be taken off! I will tip what I deem deserved not be forced into it on the bill. This is the way to have people not return with everything costing so much moreto then be charged 10% for someone to bring your food to table? We weren't even asked if meal was OK like we saw happen at other tables!

Fantastic Sunday roast, all home made and delicious too. Update. I have been just today, July 2022 and it is still fantastic. December 2022 still fantastic. April 2023 had a turkey, chorizo pie and a pint of tribune. Still (you guessed it...) fantastic. Also cocktails 2 for £10...

Lovely stay there, food was great. Although the room was looking a little tired, I would definitely stay there again.

Had a lovely meal with my wife here on 7th March. Food was good, prices reasonable and good draught cider. We received very professional and friendly service from the waitress Sasha. A good evening for us. We will return when weather improves. We both had meat dishes that were tasty and well presented. I had a lovely profiterole desert, but I was advised by Sasha that there was a good cheese board.

Well passing and I thought I needed a We’re nice pizza 😋 happy as always

Just had a beautiful family meal for 10 people. Absolutely amazing, from the pub to the food and waitress service. Especially enjoyed the fish and chips. Good portions and perfectly cooked. Would reccomend.

We regularly come here for a midweek lunch. Delicious food & a warm welcome is always a good feature.

Nice pub for a Sunday lunch great atmosphere and staff

First time visit. The food and service is awesome. I like the environment.

What a wonderful place for a Sunday Roast. The staff were all incredibly friendly. The ambiance inside was nice. I will definitely go back.

Great find after our day out at Anglesey Abbey.

Double rooms are on the small size and double beds seem to be snaller still and placed against the wall so if the person on the inside need to use the bath room, one up both up not ideal. This was the only down side. The food is quality, well prepared and presented, breakfast excellent as is the service, staff could not be more helpful.

Came in for Sunday lunch and a pint. I can't help but be so negative, but this was the worst roast dinner me and my partner have had, we found it funny. Meat was dry, aunt bessy potatoes, Yorkshire puddings weren't fresh the general quality of food was like school dinner or hospital food. There was a big sign outside saying full time chef wanted, we should've taken that as a sign! Also, the Guinness was watery. Prices were £17 a roast plus £4.50 cauliflower cheese (which didn't taste of cheese)

We all had very nice meals. The service was most professional.

A very nice place to go for a meal. Friendly staff and the food was good, with a decent portions sizes. Would recommend.

Had driven past on many occasions but never stopped. Now that I have I'm glad I did. I had pie of the day (lamb and ale) with a side order of seasonal veggies and new potatoes for mid-week lunch Very well prepared. Staff were very welcoming and attentive. On site parking. Disabled access. Would probably book ahead if I was going for dinner or meals on weekends. See my pictures for internal decor. Press like if this review was helpful.

Delicious food friendly staff and cosy and clean pub

A nice dinner with my friends beautiful place I had the pie off the day I hade the beef mushroom ale amazing pie staff friendly

We wore for a quick bite at the white hart inn We had a quick chicken souvlaki And a cools Guinness lovely service lovely place 👍

We hade the most amazing time at the white hart in the souvlakia was to die for also the pizza that my friend had my other friend had the pie off the day and she was were happy the waitress was were polite and she was doing a great service and the ambiance was nice rustic pub I will definitely come back

Rooms not massive but ok for a short stay. Breakfast excellent.

Food was good although a little pricey, along with the service charge. Our room stank of smoke

The food was good. I had prawn souvlaki.

10/10 food, cooked perfectly! Service was very impressive too, will definitely go back again, thanks

Thoroughly enjoyed our family lunch. Special shout out to the Italian man who served our table. Thank you.

Tasty food with prompt service and decent drinks

Possibly my fave pub in the whole country.

Haven't been here for a few years and could not believe the prices of the dishes on the menu. Fish and chips £17.50 - thats insane! I would like to know what makes the fish and chips that special?! I had to go and place our order at the bar even though there really wasn't many people out at that time of day. I ordered steak ciabatta with cheese, I was told that it already came with cheese and I ordered a pepperoni pizza for my partner. When food arrived there was no sign of any cheese so I sent it back to source some cheese, it had been microwaved on return as it was far to hot to handle. The pizza was thin and lacked flavour I'm afraid to say. So all in all 2 and a 1/2 cokes, 1 pizza, 1 ciabatta and chips for £40 seems crazy when I had to order my food myself and was not overly impressed when it did come, shame they didn't have a front of house to meet and greet as well.

Lovely quaint old building tiny rooms but all with the essentials pub restaurant and food very nice and staff very friendly too oh yes and a banging brekkie

Just had a Sunday roast today which was very ordinary. We’ve eaten on a Saturday which has been okay but unfortunately we won’t be returning for Sunday lunch again. Waiting staff polite and friendly.

Excellent food and table service. Gets very quiet after 9pm, which is a shame

Good food and service, strange that kitchen shuts at 2 on a Saturday. Pork souvlaki was good and a good portion

I had the chicken souvlaki, served on a flatbread . It was nice enough for a pub chain although the the flatbread was hard and inedible, it would have made an excellent after dinner Frisbee.

demanding 18 pounds for a frozen fish and chips... BIG RED FLAG.

Didn't have the cheesecake though. Otherwise very nice atmosphere

Excellent place - very friendly and good menu - could do with some more vegan choices please

Been here a couple of times. Good food. Ample parking. Friendly staff.

We stopped here for lunch today. The food was delicious. We had the steak ciabatta with chips and the duck wrap. Good size portions, very presented and very hot! We had a lovely young waitress. The decor was rustic and warm and welcoming. We will definitely be going back for dinner at some point. Highly recommend 👌 UPDATE: Had another amazing lunch here on 30th April 2022. It was a 50th Birthday lunch. Such a great choice on the menu and a very enjoyable day 😀

High price for Sunday lunch with little meat, lots of fat and missing key elements on some plates. Rude waiting staff and owner.

Nothing good to say here...awful service, poor food and terrible attitude from the manager! Avoid.

Good food, service and ambience.

We didn't dine here but menu looks good. Service good staff pleasant

Good food, nice ambiance with a beautiful fireplace.

Excellent, customer service you couldn't ask for better, the food was cooked perfectly , a great meal in a nice relaxing atmosphere ,

Tired Rooms , taps dripping drainage problems on sink and shower tray , an electric pump which is noisy disturbing your sleep, Food in small portions and overpriced , , apart from that Perfect.

The restaurant we did not stay overnight. The menu was an interesting mix of Greek and Turkish meals in addition to the traditional pub meals you might expect. The quality of the food was extremely good as was the friendly service. The pub look interesting from the outside,And once inside it has a very nice ambience and looks recently refurbished, in a way that retains its traditional feel.🔥
