The White Horse in Dacorum

A fabulous Sunday lunch for mother in law's birthday. We arrived at 11.45 and we had a 3 course meal. We were made to feel very welcome and rearranging the furniture to make room for a wheelchair was no issue. We sat and enjoyed our meal and wasn't felt rushed at all. Myself and my husband had roast beef, which was just the right shade of pink. My father in law had roast chicken, mother in law had Lamb and my daughter had the wagu burger. Each plate was a generous serving and struggled to finish it all. We were given time to let our food go down, which meant it was inevitable to have a dessert. I had the Lemon meringue tower, which was just wonderful. The owners took time out to come and say 'hello' and we're warm and welcoming. I am looking forward to going again. 😁

Absolutely delicious food. Had the pork belly roast. Sticky toffee pudding and lemon meringue pie were divine. Price is very decent, and staff very friendly. What more can you ask for?!

I had an amazingly fluffy and rich sticky toffee pudding and a tasty pork belly roast crowned by a lovely Yorkshire pudding. Very friendly and polite staff as well as quick service ( Sunday)!

I had sea bass. It was nicely cooked, but could have been warmer. New potatoes were nice, but only a very small amount of spinach. It could have done with some peas to increase the meal size. Wine was nice, but £8 a glass was a bit on the expensive side. We asked for the heating to be put on, and was told it was on, but clearly it wasn't as the radiators were all cold. Electric fan heaters were provided, but they were not very effective. We got the impression the heating was not working. I would go back, but in the warmer months.

The pub is nice and well presented inside, the food is nice I got the pulled pork croquettes and chicken Milanese both were good. There's a good mixture on the menu of traditional pub grub and some some more speciality plates. Did the job and would go back.

Good food good service good atmosphere no complaints

Lovely pub and always been one of our favourite local go to for food however after our visit yesterday we were hugely disappointed. Booking on line worked great, arrived and was seated immediately. The pub was not overly busy (7pm) however it was quite cold probably not helped by a two seated table by a window which was draughty. Starters: Halloumi - reasonable portion but insufficient bread, one very small piece. Soup - no problem with soup but it was served with the piece of bread as a full slice which was dunked bottom end in soup making it very soggy and not enjoyable. Mains: Lasagne - served with a very small salad or should I say a few green leaves - very uninspiring. I did enquire whether it came with bread but had short thrift of an answer "No". Sea Bass - reasonable fillet but then it was hunt the spinach. Two leaves! The potatoes also lacking. Sadly no chance we were staying for dessert - total cost £61 (inc two non alcoholic drinks) have to say was expensive. No issue with the young waitress but think she could tell we were less than happy. Sorry but left very disappointed. Perhaps we should of complained but after asking about bread with Lasagne just left it - no point and not sure it would have made any difference.

Fantastic Sunday roast dinner. Highly recommended. Service was spot on staff very punctual and went above and beyond! we will 100% be back 👌👌

Great family cozy pub Very traditional with blackened beams log fires and big garden area Definitely coming back here again for a regular evening meal

We waited 45 minutes for our meals, one if which came minus 2 items. Our coffees were served before the desserts. Only 2 staff waiting at tables and during our time waiting for food they were off loading a delivery if food and bringing it through the bar and restaurant. Disappointing as we were recommended by friends to go here in preference to our usual choices.

Wonderful and friendly staff, very engaging with all the customers. Great humour and really polite. Called in for tea when staying over the road and would highly recommend. Fast service and the food was delicious, i even had to squeeze in a pudding. The pub overall has a warm and welcoming vibe and is really cosy. Would definitely go again. Thank you

Lovely atmosphere, very friendly staff. Gorgeous food. Good value

Carl was brilliant! He was attentive and friendly, as was Celine.

Nice atmosphere, great drinks, amazing food and lovely staff! Shout out to Celine who was lovely, friendly and engaging as our server 😊

Steven and Celine were fantastic. Excellent customer service experience. They couldn’t do enough. I would definitely recommend to my family and friends.

The pub, typical English, is very nice and the staff pampered me and made me feel at home. Great food and fresh beer, I highly recommend it!

An incredible experience! Excelente food and service. The atmosphere is amazing! Such a surprise! Thank you guys✨️

Fabulous service, food is very good

Very nice pub. Good food. Good service: I go there a lot!

Enjoyed a great meal next to a roaring fire in this beautiful pub. Excellent service. Will definitely be returning!

The White Horse is a wholesome country pub, situated between Berkhamsted & Hemel. The staff are always friendly & accommodating. In the winter there is a beautiful roaring fire going to keep you warm. Main dishes are delicious & the pudding choices are great.

Great menu, excellent food, friendly environment and attentive service... Well worth a visit.

Wonderful place to eat. Great vegan options and attentive and accommodating staff

Lovely food, and very good service

I have had the most amazing g Christmas dinner and experience Thankyou to all the staff x

Christmas Eve dinner. Had 3 courses well it is Christmas!! Was tasty and hot staff great had a lovely evening. A good start to Christmas and will be back for our Sunday roast.

Really lovely experience - super friendly very kind staff who did a great job ( thank you!) , wonderful food ( the Lambs shepherd pie and forager pie my friend and I split and had half of each and both were delicious) , warm atmosphere, family feel but no noisy children, really good acoustics ( so important these days if you actually want to hear what your dining companions are saying!) a super professionally run pub ( you don't see the joins - its all so smoothly well operated) . Highly recommend. Thank you to all the staff and manager of the White Horse for such a wonderful evening ( and for accommodating us at the last minute!).

My friend and I had the Classic Fish and Chips. It comes with a large piece of cod in delicious batter with a smaller piece of battered hake on top, chunky chips and mushy peas. The cod was delicious but I didn't like the taste of the hake, next time I will ask for that to be removed. All the staff looked after us very well.

Faultless experience, all the staff were fabulous, and the food was even better. We only intended on having a coffee but the menu looked so good we had to eat in, and are very glad we did. Special thanks to Stephen for his service, he went above and beyond, but thanks to everyone else who contributed to our lovely meal.

Really nice staff .. food is definitely good .. would recommend..

Generally better food than most pubs. Very accommodating staff. Particularly impressed they don't touch the straws, they use tongs to hand them out.

We always feel welcomed here. The staff are friendly and professional too. There is a good menu to cater for all and the food always tastes delicious too. The pub seating is well set out.

We came to the White Horse for a family Christmas meal (8 people). Food was ordered in advance and served at appropriate intervals throughout the afternoon. The staff were attentive without being over bearing. The restaurant was busy, but not too noisy. The food was lovely and well cooked. Will definitely come back and choose from their regular menu. Thank you for making our family meal special.

Great service and the food was excellent. Would highly recommend it.

Visited the white horse again for another amazing meal. As always the staff and service is second to none, not forgetting the food being lovely traditional home cooked meals, perfect for these winter evenings. Can’t wait to come back.

Once again a big thank you to the white horse. I arranged this festive Christmas meal for a group of my old work friends. I was asked to arrange it at the White horse again after we had a festive Christmas meal last year. Once again everyone had a great time,meal in very pleasant surroundings. Of course a lot of this experience in down to the attentive and pleasant staff. I must also say a big thanks to the reservation team for their assistance regarding me making my party booking on the new system. 🤗

Came here with a work colleague today. Superb service, outstanding food and just a delightful pub! The gammon was excellent.

Popped out on this chilling evening, to have such a warm & inviting welcome by William. Such a personable, Friendly & attentive individual…Food was great too !

Nice food, the atmosphere feels cosy. The staff was great, and my waiter Steven was very friendly and helped with any questions I had

Decided to skip cooking this evening and visit The White Horse. A good decision: an enjoyable meal in a relaxed environment with friendly service particularly from Carley.

Roast dinner was beautiful ...meat tender roasties lovely and great Yorkshire pudding...best dinner ive had out for a long time ....loved it

Friendly pub, cosy inside, and tasty food. The gammon is large with pineapple and egg, well cooked. The any 4 tapas for £27 are good but many are spicy, great for sharing. Lots of parking.

We were staying at the hotel across the road, so seemed an ideal opportunity to try the White Horse, from the moment we walked in we were made to feel so at ease and telaxed. The staff were incredible and the food was honestly, amazing.. wish this place was closer to home! A real gem!

Good pub, standard food but good

Very cozy pub with a lovely roast on a Sunday

The food was good and the service was very friendly, helpful and attentive. The place is clean and comfortable. Thank you!

Went into The White Horse to take my 98 year old friend for a drink. The manager there was so welcoming and let us book a table by the fire even though we were there just for drinks. Great service. Would definitely recommend this pub to anyone wanting a quaint and cute country pub.

Enjoyed the meal. Bit quiet but it was a Tuesday. Decent pint of bitter and we were looked after by Carly who was polite and did a great job.

The rib was wonderful. Not too large portion just right. and it was nice to have a real fire going as well

Been going many years, and never been disappointed.

6 adults & 6 kids, with allergies and a dog. The team really looked after us, took the allergies seriously and we had excellent food. Will looked after us really well! Thanks Carl & team!

Saddened by yet another below standard visit met by poor, rude and below standard customer service driven and lead by an even worse attitude from the management team. This visit was the straw that broke the camels back, the food again was below par as always on busy days and this is met by an unprepared and stressed team. The chap in charge has a 100% poor attitude to customer service, arrogant and cocky (we're busy so it's time to leave as we want your table) and this was just after finishing our main course meal and saying that we didn't wish for dessert! I do wonder if we did order dessert where we would be asked to finish eating it! Outside Maybe?

Quaint, old English pub with a nice selection of food and cosy places to eat.

good food. friendly staff. good ambience. great lunch with friends.

This is one of our favourite local pubs with an excellent restaurant. We went there for a light lunch and chose from the 4 for £27 choice. As good as usual and it was nice to eat things we would not cook at home

Always a pleasure. Great for kids, and adults, and food and service is second to none

Lovely and delicious food. Was quite busy for a week day but didn't have to wait too long for our food. Good service and friendly staff.

Sunday lunch here was very good: quality beef / pork and decent quantities. My meal could have been hotter: it seemed to go cold too quickly. The prices for mains were reasonable but were far too pricey for desserts: most were over £8 and sounded as if they came straight from the chiller of a catering supplier; those I noticed were small. Very attentive service; however, I do wish wait-staff would not use the phrases 'you guys' and 'grab you a glass' on visits to the table - an excessively informal and cheap way to address people out for a meal.

We come here regularly, Carl is always very friendly and welcoming. Laura is super friendly especially to our dog-willow loved the biscuits and blanket! Foods was great, always is. Lovely pub, lovely staff very dog friendly

Brilliant, another lovely trip to the white horse with karl and his team.. lovely customer service, food fantastic and ambiance relaxing.. beautiful times.

Went for lunch on a Friday afternoon. Lovely olde worlde type pub with wooden beams and a great feel to it. Food was lovely, I had a pie (chock full of meat) and my wife and mum both had fish of the day dishes, all were lovely. Service was outstanding, very friendly and attentive without being overboard. Only downside is the price, as £90 for lunch for three is vey much at the higher end cost-wise for a pub lunch. Definitely recommend.

Stopped in on the way home from wendover woods. Always cosy and staff always welcoming. Roast Pork Sunday roast was delicious. Top marks to Carl and team 😊

Really good customer service and lovely food, thanks!

The food here is incredible and a reasonable price for what it is. The man who served us was more than capable and an excellent front of house server, I cannot recommend him more highly. I had the chocolate bomb thing for dessert and it was indulgent, decadent and beautiful. We had fish of the day and the pie for our mains and they were exquisite too. The pub is clean and comfortable, with low beams and a lovely traditional pub feel. There is an extensive garden area out the back too which looks like it will be great when the summer returns. I highly recommend a visit to this pub, thank you for a lovely experience.

Lovely Sunday roast today (and still warm enough to sit outside!) both roasts were really tasty and filling and we had a lovely waitresses served us outside. Thanks! It's also very dog friendly with plenty of space outside for our nervous pup to relax.

Me and my partner had a lovely time here, food was amazing and service was impeccable. Our server was very good at informing us of menu changes, meaning my partner could have the calamari. The place is decorated quite nicely and the atmosphere is very nice as well. Would definitely come again

Carley was a great waitress, the food was good reason not 5 stars some of it wasn't very warm. First time we've been for a roast and would definitely go back.

Lovely Sunday roast, excellent desserts. Carley was the perfect waitress and a credit to the pub.

Excellent friendly and helpful service especially woth my allergies

Always a fantastic experience at The White Horse. Great setting and ambience, really friendly and attentive staff, varied menu and delicious food! Their Steak Frites is my go to, and never fails to satisfy!! We’ll be back!

Great service from all of the staff and luckily the place hasn't changed that much from 25 years ago. It has a relaxing charm - ideal for friends and family plus dogs.

Service very slow. Ate our meal with no wine because just couldn't order it, then took too long to come. Order double drinks at the start so you've still got some for the meal maybe?

Second time we have come and food and service has been 5 star both times! Will definitely be back!!!

I had a wonderful dining experience! The food quality was truly amazing, and the service was top-notch. Despite the restaurant being busy, the staff remained incredibly friendly and helpful throughout our visit. Heidi was the one who served us and was so lovely with our dog, even giving him treats. It’s clear that they are very dog-friendly here, which made our visit even more enjoyable. I ordered the lamb roast, which was cooked to perfection, while my partner enjoyed the fish and chips, which were equally fantastic. The prices were also very reasonable. Highly recommend!

Always a great experience at this lovely pub. We are now fairly regular visitors and tend to commendere the pergola covered area outside. Genuine friendly service from a great team. Good selection of food and drink and in a pleasant and relaxing environment. Carl was super helpful on our last visit, even offering for me to taste a new wine. Highly recommended for a visit.

Good lunch. I had the sea bream and it was very tasty. Decent selection of beers.

Great food very spacious outdoor area with friendly and very helpful staff

Friendly staff and pleasant garden area - table service is also a plus

Wanted to try the white horse Sunday lunch for a while as it always gets good reviews. Finally got the opportunity to visit. Roast beef was delicious as was the lamb my husband had. Everything was lovely except it was all just “warm” didn’t stop us eating it all but could have easily been so much better. We did have the cauliflower cheese extra which was a little disappointing, hardly any sauce and again just warm. Don’t let this stop you going it was lovely, huge Yorkies!

As always, excellent service and food. Very happy to supply my elderly mother with a children's menu. Great music selection but not too loud. And the bus stop back to Berkhamstead is just outside. Perfect. Thank you

Fantastic Sunday lunch best we’ve had in a long time ! Highly recommend. Desert was delicious too . Many thanks we’ll be booking again soon

Went for Sunday lunch with my husband & mother in law. We all had a lovely meal ( lamb& pork loin) Staff were very attentive and friendly and the food was really good we all had deserts as well and wine would recommend for a family meal here. Food is cooked well it’s not over priced and has a lovely beer garden

Well worth a visit, made to feel very welcome

Came down for food on a random Saturday been here before and always been good overall. This visit was no exception, service/food as well as the atmosphere was on point. Would definitely recommend

Bar staff clearly didn't want to be there. Been using this pub for years , completely put off now

Lovely from the moment we walked in the welcome was so friendly from the 3 rock shandy girls we will be back xxx

Great service from Josh, very welcoming

Carly gave us excellent service this evening and ensured that all allergies were catered for and answered all our questions regarding the food. The food was excellent and brought out in good time.

Have to say the white horse has such great service, friendly staff, good food, just a really nice pub to catch up with people.

Lunch party organised by a .colleague, my crab and asparagus salad was disappointing. Doubt the crab would fill half a table spoon, about 5 small asparagus spears, plenty of small half potatoes covered in mayonnaise, the whole covered by some sort of greenery. Cost £15.50, worth about £3.00.

Lovely food! Friendly service from Carl and Laura!

Great Sunday lunch and our waitress Nancy really efficient.

The food was first class and the server (landlord) could not have been nicer helping with food allergies. All round top night out Thanks 👍

First visit but won't be the last! Great food, great service and great atmosphere.

Lovely Sunday Roast, Great Service, as always 😀

Had a wonderful Sunday lunch at the white horse and even though they were busy our food arrived hot and quickly. Nice portions of meat and veg. We ordered some side dishes but in all honesty we didn’t need them. Also had a Black Cherry tart which was delish. Good service, very polite young waiters and waitresses. Would definitely go back 😁

Decent enough but out of 4 of us there was something not great on all of them. Roast - lukewarm, steak - chewy, - fish - a little dry, burger underwhelming.

Highly recommend. Great evening with family and friends.

Nancy was very helpful and polite

Lovely pub with freshly made food and lots of options. Davis was a fantastic and friendly waiter who ensured we had a lovely dining experience. Would recommend.
