Stopped for a quick meal. It's a really friendly pub with a Nepalese menu. Food came very quickly and was amazing. Very tasty and good size portions. Only regret is being too full to try the deserts. Will certainly try again if in the area.

Nice pub, modern and the service was good. The portions were big; we got the butter chicken and the lamb chops. The "classic menu" is a twist on normal pub grub, but with spices etc added. I think we would've preferred it if it was himalayan for the himalayan and plain, standard UK version for the pub grub. Obviously not everyone would agree, just personal preference.

Treated like thugs and hooligans at end of night .at 23.15 people got glasses snatched out of hand and told to go and threatening to lock cars in carpark so we left and got waved at from staff in a patronising way no need not a clue how to treat customers looks like another pub ruined

We celebrated my husband’s 70th birthday here and had an excellent evening. 24 people so the tables were rearranged so we could all sit together. As it was such a large group, we ordered everyone’s food in advance, to ensure everyone got what they wanted. This meant it all came out very efficiently. Everybody enjoyed their food and a number of the group who Hadn’t eaten there before said they will be returning. The currys were particularly good, with one of the party raving about the Gurkha Chicken. Nothing was too much trouble. The staff were so friendly and helpful. Can’t thank them enough for making the evening so special. We’re determined to return to try their Sunday Roasts next.

Planned a family get together, this was convenient for everyone distance wise. The menu looked great for mix of people and ages. Popped in for a sneaky taster which was fab a lamb masala and himilayan lamb chops. So booked for the 10 of us and came today. Wow, everyone said how good it was. Roasts, steak and currys all fab. Thanks to staff who served us today. We will be back for more next chance we get.

We visited the White Harte on a Saturday lunchtime and had a lovely meal. It is really unusual in that it is a pub that does authentic Himalayan food: Indian, indo-chinese and Nepalese. Our food was delicious and good value. It also does traditional pup fayre. The service was friendly and helpful. The only downside was that the pub garden was in front of the pub with no boundary between the garden and the fairly busy road.

Part of a 4 pub chain, 3 in Bristol & 1 in Swindon. They do English style food & Sunday Roast, although most of the menu is Himalayan Food. Plenty of parking although the spaces are very narrow so if someone parks next to you it makes it difficult to in & out your car. We went Saturday lunchtime & the car park was full & the pub was busy. I had a very nice curry. Good quality food. The food arrived in a reasonable time. All of the staff were friendly & helpful Price wise it is at the top end of what I would expect for a lunchtime pub meal. 2 Pints, 2 Meals & 2 Coffees £46. Nice meal out.

Had a family meal booked here for 10 of us. Was waiting ages for food to come out and then when we were waiting at 19:10 the waitress come over to say we needed to be off this table by 8 when we were waiting for them to give us our main meal. I thought this was very rude, definitely wouldn’t return and wouldn’t recommend. It’s such a shame as couldn’t complain about the food.

Lovely food but our evening was severely ruined by the staff. We were informed that we would have the table for two hours which was fine - you’d think 2 hours would be ample time for a meal?! Orders were taken 30 minutes after seating including mains. 70 minutes in and we are told that we need to hurry up by a member of staff as they needed the table at 8pm… we hadn’t even been given our main meals yet. A second member of staff then came over to confront our table about hurrying up to which we were very upset as it wasn’t our fault that the service was slow and the approach was incredibly rude. Meals were great but again, it took so long to clear the table that we weren’t offered dessert even though we had time. After rushing us to eat our mains they then didn’t take payment until after 8pm so it seems that we were rushed for absolutely no reason. Really disappointed as the food was really nice. Won’t be returning unless staff choose a better attitude. Arguing with your customers doesn’t sit well with wanting people to return - I think this should be taken into consideration in the future.

Went here a couple of years ago and the food was so awful I asked for a refund and swore never to go back. Went again a couple of weeks ago because we were desperate to take mother somewhere that let dogs in and everywhere else was fully booked. Obviously under new management because the food was amazing! Loving the Hymalayan menu. I had paneer curry and it was to die for. My hubby had the traditional Sunday Roast but they spiced up the roast potatoes. Delicious. Glad everywhere was booked! Will definitely be going back. Staff were also lovely and very sweet to the dog 😊

I've driven past this pub countless times, throughout my life. But for some reason, never been inside. Until last week! Off the back of reviews by friends, went to check it out, and couldn't of been more impressed. With the food and service. The staff were welcoming and friendly. Showed my wife and I promptly to our table. And served us promptly throughout, checking on us, for drinks top-ups and food satisfaction. We both opted to try one of the Himalayan curries, which were fantastic, and incredible value. I'll definitely be heading back to try more of the menu, and would definitely recommend.

Booked by friends well in advance but they had a call from the pub to move our booking back by half an hour , which we reluntanctly agreed to. Ordered a main course which , before we'd finished were informed for the first time that they needed the table back for another party in 20 mins. Would at least thought we'd have been given the time to order a desert had we wanted. Would never have bothered had we been told we were going to be rushed. Home by just after 8pm. Total waste of an evening. Could have gone elsewhere had we been told. Won't be visiting again.

My wife and I had a very enjoyable Sunday evening meal. I chose the delux roast. My wife had the spiced lamb chops. The meat was cooked beautifully. The belly pork perfectly seasoned. The lamb was delicately spiced. Portions were generous but not excessive. Clearly the White Heart excels on cuisine celebrating the proprietors heritage. I’d recommend a visit to the white hart anytime. Great value

Really confused by the Himalayan food. For us it was the same as any other Indian curry house. We reserved a table (booth if possible) by email and this was confirmed. Upon arrival there was no reservation under our name. We were put on a table on the end right in the path of the kitchen entrance. Food was good but no better or different than our local curry house and this pub doesn't offer any hot currys. We travelled a fair distance for this pub based on recommendation and reviews but regrettably we personally wouldn't say it's worth it.

After hearing amazing things about the new ownership and food. We ordered a take away for my partners birthday. Neither of us ate our dishes (tikka and korma) with a couple of starters. The bread was tough, the rice over spiced and the curry itself was so bland. Then some form of plastic/hair was in the jalapeño starter. Extremely disappointed when we were really excited to try something new.
