The White Horse in Maldon

Lovely Sunday roast, nice atmosphere and excellent service. thanks Laura for looking after us!

Lovely food & great service, will definitely go again! Thanks Josie

Just been to the White Hart with friends for lunch. Great atmosphere, great food and most of all excellent service from Roland. Thoroughly recommended.

We met friends we hadn’t seen for a while. There was a live act which was so loud we couldn’t hear each other at times. If you meet for a meal together you want to talk not be drowned out by loud music. Three of us wanted belly pork but there was only one left so we chose again. I chose seafood linguine which was oily and unappetising and meagre given the price tag. We had three starters, three mains and one child size fish and chips and a bottle of wine. The bill for four was over £200. Most definitely not worth it. We won’t be back.

Amazing menu and a lovely festive vibe! Thank you so much to our waitress Laura. Highly recommend

Pre booking needed. Friendly staffs, prime location & cosy place. Ordered Trio Roasts. Pork crackling was my fav. Beef was tough & chewy. Not worth of money.

Booked for my Mothers 80th. When I booked online I was given the option to request certain things for my Mothers 80th, it did not happen. The food looked great when served but it was Luke warm, meat very dry and the gravy tasted like it was made from a packet. We won’t be going back. Customer service and quality food in this country is appalling. Having said all that, Laura who took care of us was cheerful, thanks Laura. I don’t recommend the trio Sunday lunch!

Really lovely pub. The Sunday roast was nice, and the selection of red wine was by glass were good. Our waitress Laura was lovely and made sure we were really well looked after.

Had a lovely Sunday lunch with friends, great variety in the menu and friendly staff. Thank you!

Had a lovely meal at the White Hart last night with my wife and son. Great food and atmosphere with a friendly and efficient service from Rebecca, who also remembered us from previous visits which was nice.

had a lovely time. the food was amazing and so was the service, Rebecca served us and was very polite and gave us a 5* service. we will definitely be coming back.

Very nice good and nice place. Rebecca helped us a lot and was very nice 👍🏼

Had a fantastic evening in The White Hart with my daughter. The service from Rebecca was exemplary, every detail taken care of and nothing was too much. The Food was delicious and great value. Looking forward to going back again soon. Thank you for a great dining experience Rebecca.

We always enjoy our lunchtime work meetings at the white hart. Always great food and impeccable service- Josie is a legend 👍🏻 The Prava men

Popped in for a Sunday roast and was served by Rebecca. Food was delicious and came quickly. Sadly too full to try the desserts! Will be back 😊

Wonderful food and excellent staff

Friendly staff and excellent food

Good choices on the menu for veggies and great service .

Really enjoyed the food. I opted for the vegan choice which was really nice, my friend’s belly pork was really good too. Service from Laura was excellent. Room for improvement would be that wheelchair accessibility needs improvement. As you go in the doors open into each other. Into the disabled bathroom the large nappy bin made access difficult.

Lovely meal and Laura looked after us very well , couldn’t ask for better service, thankyou

We enjoyed our evening and were looked after by the lovelyLaura who was attentive and had a great sense of humour. The food was good no complaints but not 5*. All in all a convenient location to meet friends with a warm welcome.

Lovely evening all round. Rebecca was a fabulous waitress and food was delicious. Will definitely come back

Outrageous prices. A cup of coffee at almost £4 which tasted of water not coffee. A glass of wine £15 !!!! Won’t be rushing back

Lovely food and fantastic friendly service from Rebecca. Thanks

We visited for lunch having heard good reviews and we were not disappointed Lovely surroundings and a nice cosy atmosphere. Good selection on the menu and the food was delicious. Our waitress was Laura and she looked after us, giving friendly attentive service whilst not being intrusive. Thank you! We will definitely be back.

Was greeted by Justin with a smile, he was so polite and friendly. Served us and was lovely and chatty, can’t recommend the food enough, we had the salt and pepper squid to start which was delicious and followed that with the buttermilk chicken burgers which were so light and crispy. The sauce was amazing! Justin came back to check on how we were doing and was lovely. Can’t recommend enough, visiting the area for a few days and will definitely be coming back

Me and my partner did the wine and dine. This is great value for money and I like the fact that you can swop your desert for a after dinner cocktail instead. I had the espresso martini. The food was very good

Great afternoon getting a Sunday roast! Lovely service from Laura! Thank you :)

One of the best pub/restaurants around the West Yorkshire area. The food is of highest quality, the staff are second to none and the atmosphere is a cosy one that all contribute to make you want to go back.

Great evening at the White Hart. Excellent meal and drinks. Top service from Laura, will certainly come again.

Laura was our host and she was brilliant. Really engaging, explained certain menu items in great detail and made the overall experience that much better, thank you!

Absolutely fantastic stay. Staff were brilliant, very friendly, helpful and polite. My room was fabulous. Very clean and very comfortable bed. The meals were amazing!! But I have to mention the tomahawk steak, WOW!! By far, the best steak I’ve ever had, EVER! I will definitely be going back and certainly recommend The White Horse to anyone. Thank you again to all the staff, you superstars!!!!

Drinks came fairly quickly but staff slow taking food orders and although our table was booked fairly early it took 50mins from arriving to receive our food.

Second night here for evening meal.Great food and service. Great music superb service again.Would definately recommend .

Good size car park . We eat in the bar which was a good size room was nice atmosphere. I thought the food is average for the price.

The White Hart ticked every box and more. My husband, toddler, baby and I attended for lunch. Nothing was too much. The staff went above and beyond to make us feel comfortable giving 5* service with a smile. The food was beautiful. I ordered the salad which I would never normally order from any restaurant, but I wasn’t disappointed. I can’t wait to go back and order again. The building and garden is beautiful in a great location with good parking and dog friendly!! We will definitely back with the family and our dog for more amazing food! Thank you White Hart team

Location and parking very good. Pretty well kept garden area. Internally Intimate eating areas for family groups. Good service

Visited recently on a Friday lunchtime, was busy but we got a table quickly. Very friendly staff and excellent service. I had one of the specialty burgers which was delicious with halloumi fries. Great coffee and the barista was suberb, never stopped the whole time we were there, excellent! Would highly recommend.

Great cosy little pub restaurant with quality food

We had a wonderful dining experience here. Rebecca our server was incredible, made it so special and was great with my little boy. The Sunday roasts was amazing so tasty and big portions. Would recommend 100% one of the best meals out we have had

This pub/restaurant was very good for everything……..except the food. Nice surroundings, pleasant attentive staff but mediocre meals. They advertise the best Ploughman’s lunch in Essex yet supply it with very little salad and what appeared to be Tesco white bread, with no other choice available and very average cheese. We ordered the most expensive item on the menu the Tomahawk steak, but it was more medium raw than medium rare, plus the steak and the vegetables were only just luke warm. The chips were a little soggy (but ok). We went there because of the good reviews on Trip Advisor but it did not live up to expectations.

We really enjoyed the Wine & Dine menu tonight. Thank you to Alex & team for looking after us.

My husband and I enjoyed 2 lovely courses here. The food was excellent and special thanks to Mel and Emma for being so polite and professional and looking after us! We will definitely be back again

Popped in on spec, had the vegetarian pie. Really tasty, good firms chunks in sauce, crisp pastry Generous helping of vegetables and extra gravy Very friendly person behind the bar, I’m coming back!

Really disappointed, less than average expensive food

Very expensive for mediocre quality Sunday roasts. The fish dishes were better. Took an hour between sitting down and getting the food and it wasn't very busy. Not planning to return.

vegan options great, all of us enjoyed the food

Very nice clean eating place. Worth a visit.

Really nice pub. Looks excellent. Was in a Sunday and it was very busy and the food coming out looked excellent. We just had a few starters but each was excellent. Sat outside which is a nice beer garden. Comfortable. Decent amount of space. Lots of parking but still gets quite full.

Called by for a pint with the Yorkshire Driving Club. No time for food, so unable to comment, but the WH was clearly popular at the time of our visit as many diners could be seen waiting to be taken to tables. Plenty of beers, lagers and wines to choose from, although the most expensive pub visited on our local travels. Loverly setting, well worth a visit again

Laura was great fun and cheeky. It was refreshing and sorted us a complimentary drink because of a long wait. This was perfect as it was our anniversary. Thank you Laura x

Food was excellent, as it was when we visited previously. I would have liked to have sen the meat pie on the menu but apparently that is only included during the week. Price of a tonic water was high £5+ Overall very good and we shall return

Great dining experience, lots of food options and nice cask ales to make it a meal to remember.

Fabulous lunch with you today. Although you were very busy, service was excellent. We booked for 1.15pm. Warmly greeted and table prepared.

Staff member serving us was friendly. Service was incredibly slow despite it not being busy We waited an hour for our main course to be served after our starter. Had to ask the waitress what was happening with our order as no one came to speak to us and we noticed that customers who arrived after us had been served their mains before us. We were informed they were just waiting for the pizza which didn’t make sense as pizza doesn’t take long to cook. When the food arrived it was very nice , just a shame about the delay and lack of service during that period of waiting.

This was a special lunch in memory of my mother, and everything went so brilliantly. Our menu choices were individually checked, we had an amazing waitress (Summer) who gave us her full attention. From booking (Justin) to checkout (Summer), the experience was 10/10. Thank you so much.

Been here a few times; lovely old pub with elevated food and a good beer selection. Very popular and worth booking to get in the restaurant section. Last visit was 10th July 2024 for lunch. Service was very slow and the menus were incorrect so most of us had to pick something else.

Always have a great time at the White Hart, whether it be for drinks or food. Kate is fantastic & so friendly & our 8 month old adores her! Looking forward to visiting again!

Great food at a lovely venue. The service from Laura was bang on...attentive, polite and couldn't have done any more.

Lovely Sunday lunch. Friendly staff.

Stopped for Sunday lunch, on the way to the airport, after a drive down from Inverness. Between our family of 4 we had the Trio of Roasts, Steak, Veggie Fig Roast and kids Roast Chicken. All were fantastic and resulted in clear plates. Nice atmosphere, friendly attentive staff and amazing food. Cannot recommend highly enough and we will definitely be back - well worth the drive!!

A very enjoyable meal. Pleasant place, friendly, helpful staff (thank you Laura), and a good menu at fair prices. What more can you ask for.

Food is amazing, wonderful atmosphere/setting and lovely staff, special thanks to Georgia for making our meal extra enjoyable :)

Good reliable food for a relaxed night out with friends. The steaks were really good. Laura our server was really friendly.

Came in for some food and drinks, Nadia was a star brilliant service will definitely come again:)

Went to the White Horse on the basis there was little else open. After looking at the menu, was interested in their claim of the best Ploughmans Lunch! So ordered it. Wow! Huge portion and well presented. I enjoyed it and it certainly lives up to their claims. Staff were friendly and helpful.

Lovely staff and great food, recommend.

Great food, great service from Kate!

Delicious food and excellent service from Laura. Thank you

We were a large party post funeral so the mood was a bit sombre upon arrival. The delightful Erin saved the day with her fantastic demeanour, attitude and attentiveness. By the time we left, we were all laughing and joking with Erin who gave as good as she got. Next stop Erin, Karen's Diner to truly let that fantastic service shine through! 😂 Thanks in all seriousness for raising our spirits, you were great.

We got served by Laura who was awesome 👍🏻

We stopped off here on a long bike ride, and they were really welcoming, letting us charge the bike battery. The food was good but the service was excellent, thank you

Lovely pub , tasty food , nice staff. Thoroughly recommend.We had the Belly Pork , Linguine, Soup and Fish and chips. All well cooked and well presented. Decent prices .

First time visiting for me and my boyfriend and what a lovely pub it was. The staff were all very friendly and welcoming especially our server Laura who was very attentive and checked on us regularly to ensure we had enough drinks and the food was right. She was very efficient and had a great personality adding to the warm atmosphere. We both had steak which was cooked beautifully and exactly how we had both asked we also had the 3 trio desserts which were delicious.

Lovely dinner and we were made very welcome by Kate. Will be back again soon!

Came in for some drinks and gorgeous food! Justin gave great wine reccomendations whilst Laura made sure we were looked after at all times! Will definitely be coming back very soon!

It's a while since we visited this lovely pud, the food and service is very good with ample portions, would definitely recommend.

Lovely food (especially the vegetarian selection) and great service from Laura.

I rarely eat vegetarian food - but tried a vegetarian pizza here and it was quite frankly delicious. The desserts were also pretty good! Worth visiting!

We had Sunday dinner as a party of 8 and the food was superb. We were served by Laura who was amazing and happy 😁

I was out at The White Hart in Pool-in-Wharfedale this evening for an early evening meal with colleagues. The food was excellent. I had the sea bass, which was perfectly cooked with a delightful crisp to the skin and soft flesh, served in a delicious sauce. The service was attentive and warm, in fact I noted the warm, kind welcome I received at the bar on arrival. We had a room to ourselves so we generated our own happy and relaxed atmosphere. I'm sure we'll be back.

Lovely food fantastic service from the lovely Laura. What a lovely member staff and so attentive

Great evening at the White Hart. Good food and service. Katie served us.

We had a delicious meal. The atmosphere is lovely and we were served by Katie who was so lovely and helpful. Thank you!

Lovely service by Laura and food thabkyiu

Laura gave excellent service last night. Really friendly, and always made sure we were well looked after.

Had a great evening here tonight. Food, drink and service were all spot on. Served by Laura - she was really kind and helpful. Thank you!

Had dinner at The White Hart and was delighted with the food. Laura was amazing, so friendly and polite made our evening perfect. Thank you

Had a lovely lunch today with tasty food and a nice atmosphere. The service was particularly good from Laura.

Great service and food and drink excellent

Summer was lovely, really helpful as one of our party was gluten free. Food was delicious and would definitely recommend. We’ll be back.

Excellent food and staff, attentive and friendly. Only comment we have is that it is easier to eat a desert with a spoon AND a fork especially a tart! Starter knives and forks were removed as we didn't have starters so it would be relatively easy to return the forks with spoons for desert.

Called for a drink , made welcome even in our working clothes , food looked good, will be calling again to sample the food

We ate on a Tuesday evening, a group of 9, never eaten her before. Food was fantastic, the only thing that trumped the food was the service that Laura provided, prompting, concise, she really knew her stuff and was super witty and friendly! Thanks Laura!!!

Stopped by for dinner as it had vegan options and was dog friendly and what a treat. The staff were lovely, the food delicious. I had battered banana blossom and chips and my partner had sea bass. We aye in the bar which was lovely and the Restaurant also looked above average. We will definitely be going again

Fantastic pub, great food and lovely staff. Nadia was great, really helpful and great knowledge of the menu. Think this lovely place may need a lick of paint or two, but will definitely be visiting again!

Thank you so much, it was a great way to celebrate my Dad’s 90th. We booked the White Hart, as it’s one of his favourite venues for Thursday Lunch Club. Amy and Justin were brilliant, I organised our requirements through them, everything was great. On the day Laura looked after us, it was a surprise for my Dad, so we had a few bits to finalise, before we collected him and brought him back. Laura was outstanding from start to finish throughout the day. Highly recommended, everything was outstanding. Thank you all so much, for making my Dad’s 90th birthday, truly a day to remember.

Having been for lunch several times, we booked to celebrate Dad's 90th birthday with 25 family and friends. Everything was perfect. Amy and Justin were always prompt and very helpful with the booking and planning. A big thank you to Laura on the day for being the best host and making sure everything ran smoothly. Also, to the front of house team, thank you for your patience and excellent service. To the chef and team, the food was wonderful, thank you. We had a great time, Dad loved it. We'll be seeing you soon for lunch, just the 3 of us next time though 😁

Amazing night at the white hart for my birthday. Laura went above and beyond to make the night special.Excellent food and service.

Very disappointed with food. Ordered the jerk chicken burger and chips. Burger bun was to hard to eat and chips very soggy. No side salad. Over priced for very poor quality food.
