The White Hart Inn at Lydgate in Oldham - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

I have reviewed this place before, but every time I go I get a request for a review, so here goes. Consistently really good food, including desserts, and well kept beers on offer each time. Charming staff. What is not to like.

A lovely find, our food was very tasty. Recommended by a local as we aren’t familiar with the area. I would visit again if in the area.

the room is absolutely amazing the staff are wonderful food amazing 🍽👩‍❤️‍👨💒🥂🥢☀️we came here for a wedding it was 100 percent fabulous .the grounds are ideal with plenty of space and seating Eric and his team made us feel sooo special they all went not just an extra mile but 100. we will definitely be back. wish we could do it all again this

Great food and the 2:4:1 menu is excellent value. We strayed with a tomato soup with basil oil, followed by beef and then a cheese board. A good selection of wine too.

We had the set menu 5 course small portions but delicious. The beef was so well cooked. Couldn’t recommend enough and service is really good.

Excellent food and friendly staff,lovely location and atmosphere,not stayed in the rooms but if they're anything like the rest of the place then I would imagine they're excellent too,you need to go eat here👍

Had a lovely lunch staff really pleasant .

My husband and I attended my brothers wedding in the Whitehart, they really couldn't of done enough for us. Absolutely fantastic and a beautiful room.

Exceptional food and service. 5 course’s of excellent execution or taste and flair. That’s why I go back again and again

Had a fantastic visit here, very friendly staff and excellent food. Easy to find and plenty of parking for even the biggest of weddings.

Excellent service and tasty tasty food. Went for a birthday/family day. Have to say that Isabelle is a fantastic host. Would 100% come back again.

Exceptional three course meal and an extensive wine list. Brilliant, attentive service. We hope to go back very soon and will be recommending to everyone we know!

Well this was a lovely surprise. The service from the moment we arrived was fantastic and the staff could not do more for you. The food was excellent with a fantastic wine menu to match. The rooms are clean , comfortable and spacious. I would stay again in the heartbeat!!

Friendly attentive staff. Lovely pint of Landlord! Top service and evening meal. Delicious full English breakfast following morning. The White Hart combines excellent food with top service in a friendly atmosphere. Lovely place to visit. Will go again!!!

Came with a few people, I ordered the cheese and onion pie. I would not say it was worth the price unfortunately, as when I opened the pie it was very hollow inside with not much filling.

Fantastic beer garden. Outside bar great idea.

Always a friendly atmosphere. The food is amazing and not forgetting they are dog friendly heart 💓

Nice pub with great views over Greater Manchester. Good beer garden.

Brass band competition on, beer garden was packed. Service was good. Nice place. Imagine great on a sunny day.

Cannot fault this pub - Great service, friendly clientele. Perfect

Personal touches from family run business

Beautiful Hotel and restaurant set in amazing surroundings x

Had a great afternoon/evening at the White Hart Inn. Food was good. On the pricey side but as for as facilities and location are concerned it’s spot on.

Came here for a family meal, the selection is good, something for everyone, I had the steak which was spot on, everyone else thoroughly enjoyed theirs too so no complaints at all

Always a nice place to visit with a pleasant, friendly atmosphere. Lovely village location close to where we live. Hence why I can't comment on the rooms as we have never stayed there.

Here for a wedding, lovely venue

Just popped in for drinks on a hot Sunday afternoon... Fabulous.

Bit pricey for single occupancy (same price as double) when only one set of linen to launder and one breakfast to serve

Yesterday my family and I really enjoyed Sunday lunch at the White Hart Inn yesterday. The meal was excellent as was the service by very pleasant and attentive staff.

Had the 2-4-1, 5 course menu. Food and wine was excellent as was the service by Pippa. 10/10 we will definitely be back soon.

Fantastic food and service as always. Chef selects the best ingredients so all dishes are excellent quality. Crispy pig is outstanding and original.

Last minute booking On arrival Florian had found a table for us in the Brassiere and as usual oversaw the meal with his masterly discrete efficiency We had booked the Fish on Friday deal which included a drink and is fantastic value for money The fish is lightly crispy battered and so fresh and flaky .Home made Tartare sauce makes a lovely difference Even though the dish was quite satisfying on looking at the dessert list we couldn’t resist sharing a Sticky Toffee Pudding which was to die for Well done again the White Hart!

We always go here for Sunday dinner as it never disappoints. The food is always consistent even on busier days, make sure you order the cauliflower cheese aswell it's amazing!

Booked for dinner on a Saturday so no midweek price deals. The brasserie was lovely, cosy and busy, and beautifully warm on a cold evening! We had starters and mains, all excellent. A bottle of Cotes du Rhone was very good though from the cheaper end of the very extensive wine list, and came with an interesting bit of explanation of its origin. This is not your regular Saddleworth pub meal with huge portions at low prices, but is just what it ought to be for a slightly more fancy occasion. The staff all gave just the right level of friendly personal attentiveness too.

Superb food and excellent service. The food was exceptional and very well presented. There is an excellent wine list and great hand pulled beers.

As always lovely food, good atmosphere,great service....what else can you ask for!! And the set menu is back on Wednesday and Thursday evenings with great choices at competitive prices. Can wholeheartedly recommend!

I am my husband stayed over last Saturday for a meal with friends. The room was spacious and I loved the bathroom (room 10). A couple of small things: a small table or stool next to bath would be useful to pop bits and pieces on when in the bath. Full ingredients would be useful on homemade biccies.. The bath taps made a loud banging noise and the water was intermittent when turned on full. The info brochure was falling apart and stuff wasn't where it stated. We did find the bed really comfy and the staff were great about providing more pillows. Finally, my husband was made up he could have sticky toffee pudding, as he can't have cows' milk or soya- I need the recipe. Oh, all staff were brilliant. We will be back.

Hosted a recent birthday party, The Library is a fantastic private dining venue. Topped off with great food and staff.

Fish, chips and a pint. Friday family treat. An absolute delight. Sizeable fish, big portion of chips, mushy peas and a very tasty homemade tartar sauce. Wonderful welcome from front of house staff.

The best fish and chips for miles. Even my very fussy parents couldn’t fault it and can’t wait to go and try the other stuff on the menu.

Fantastic food, lovely atmosphere and professional and attentive staff. Good value due to lunchtime offer. Worth a visit.

Excellent meal as always Brilliant service Superb value on a midweek night had 2-4-1 meal in the Brasserie - a cosy small restaurant especially when the fire is lit

I love this place, it’s my favourite restaurant to visit with friends. The food and service never disappoint. Thank you for being consistently excellent!

We had Sunday lunch and couldn't fault it. The staff were so friendly and did everything they could to make our visit a great experience. The food was amazing and we will definitely be going back!

Their Friday special fish and chips is always outstanding. The lemon cheesecake is just amazing for desert. Service was laid back and friendly.

Nice food but limited menu choice. Good value for £24.95 each. I think people would struggle with the starter options and the main course

Lovely place, really relaxed, didn’t feel rushed in any way nor did we feel that we had been forgotten, friendly helpful staff, very efficient and professional. Food is exceptional and very reasonably priced. Would highly recommend

We hadn't been to the White Hart since before the pandemic & it was great to be back. We arrived too early for our booked time but enjoyed a drink in the bar while we waited. After a short time the head waiter came to tell us we could go to our table ahead of time. We enjoyed the same service as always - professional, attentive & very friendly. We chose the 3 course set menu & I particularly enjoyed the chicken which was succulent & had a delicious crispy skin. We're looking forward to our next visit.

Excellent service and food was delicious, had the Haddock and Chips and passion fruit cheesecake with mango sorbet, also the sticky toffee pudding all delicious

My sister and I took mum for a belated Mothers' Day lunch and had a wonderful time! The food was, as ever, delicious, and the service and care (including finding us a dog-friendly table) second to none - we love The White Hart and are already planning another lunch - and the reduced price 2 and 3 course menu makes it even more attractive!

It was our first time visiting the White Hart and we were not disappointed. The Sunday lunch was excellent, the service was superb and the prices were very reasonable. We had a wonderful time and could have stayed all day. We will definitely be returning.

Really good service from a professional team , served in the bar area which allows dogs who also created well and the Sunday roast was good. The pub is a very good location and lovely atmosphere .

Brilliant food and service. Florin was amazing host as always,the place would not be nearly as good without him. Consistently excellent.

Service was excellent and the quality of food was even better. Love coming here as our treat venue and will definitely be back very soon

We took advantage of the dinner offer. It seemed that as it was an offer, the portions were smaller. Vegetarian choice was aubergine which is rather an odd choice to give as not the most popular vegetable. The vegan brownie was inedible. It was quite disappointing and the drinks are very expensive.

We were there for a birthday lunch and were made to feel very special. Beautiful venue, delicious food, and the staff so attentive and friendly. Would definitely recommend 👌

A little disappointing. Ordered a meal and it came with half of what was on the menu. Queried this and they told us we did have the full meal, which it definitely wasn't. They went up to the kitchen, came down and avoided us until we called them over and asked again, they then told us they had run out of ingredients during the day and we weren't told this. Food was luke warm. The dessert was the best course.

Delicious all the way !! Both starters , the scallops and the chicken terrine had been created by mixing a range of ingredients. The main course of featherblade beef melted in the mouth. It had an additional cost supplement but was definitely well worth it. Great service and pricing.

Superb cooking in an attractive and welcoming environment with attentive service - will be booking a return visit very soon.

Came for my mums 79th birthday meal and it was fabulous. Really lovely food, great service and a really warm atmosphere. Wished we lived closer so we could come in more often!

Very nice cooking, wine list and service. Would be a good view in the light too. Looks like there are lots of value offers on weekdays too (not for us, we were there on Saturday night). A safe, competent ad reliable option. Also a very friendly atmosphere.

The menu is detailed as a set price menu. It is very misleading as all but two of the dishes attract a supplement of £5.00. I wine for a sandwich which was crispy falafel - it was very average. Service was very good

Lovely relaxed light lunch with family. Engaging and helpful staff, alongside a varied menu made our dining experience very enjoyable.

Chips were so overcooked, I couldn’t cut them, they just shattered. I mentioned to the server but he just shrugged! On the plus side hubby’s meal was faultless and he thoroughly enjoyed it.

Food was outstanding , such great quality and always so flavoursome. Eric who looked after us went above and beyond to make sure we had everything we wanted.

Not great... Felt like eating at a work event, and the food was average at best! Service not good, and zero atmosphere, would not recommend

Perfect Mother’s Day meal in the Oak Room, the food is always top quality and the staff are very polite and attentive. Always look forward to a meal at The White Hart.

Excellent service, excellent food- we had a wonderful evening and will definitely return. Also nice to see a restaurant that charges appropriately for the quality provided- so many places now are so expensive but only offer moderate food. White Hart is top notch!

Went for Mother’s Day lunch in the Oak room. There was a special 3 course set menu which was well priced and turned out to be exceptional value for the quality and volume of food. The service was great, friendly and attentive staff who went...

Although most of the non surcharged items on the special menu were gone by 7.30pm (poor planning) and the al acarte menu not available - caused food selection part of the evening to be very frustrating. the staff were amazing and the food was delicious

We took advantage of the February 2-4-1 5 course meal offer as a half term treat. The food was absolutely delicious. We are regular visitors to the pub for drinks, we love the atmosphere and the staff are all so lovely. It was amazing to eat in the Brasserie we really enjoyed the evening thank you. So lucky to have the White Hart so close by.

Family time ,,, nothing was to much trouble ..my dad has a mobility scooter … every thing was taken into consideration The staff the food .. just superb .. thank you 🙏

Excellent Sunday Dinner Beautifully cooked medium rare beef Delicious crisp and fluffy roasts and a great Yorkshire Pudding with nice veg and a deep rich gravy served with great efficiency and charm by Florian and his team What’s not to like!

Excellent lunch. A generous portion of perfectly cooked Belly Pork, Haddock in a faultless batter and the best chips I have ever had but the outstanding course was the Skrei Cod with curry sauce sublime Thank you

Simply great as always - great atmosphere, excellent staff and service and the food was beautifully presented and tasted great

Excellent food at a very sensible price. Management should keep the special offer going through March. All tables were taken and everyone had bought wine etc.

Wow - back to its beautiful best - food, ambience and service all stellar, we had a wonderful Valentines meal and will definitely be back. The set menu at reduced price for February is fantastic value - plenty of choice and we both could have...

We returned to the White Hart for the 241 offer we were not disappointed the food was good the menu limited to three choices per course. All in all a good night out other than it became a little bit too noisy as the night...

Took advantage of the latest February deals for a birthday lunch. Great service and food. Wasn’t rushed at all. Lovely atmosphere. Well done!

The valentines meal was lovely, and the ambience was romantic and relaxed. The food portions is where the event falls down slightly! I know this was a tasting menu experience, and the food/presentation was first class but given the cost I’d have wanted more.
