The White Horse in East Hampshire

Not worth it! Run down, unfriendly and many more places to explore in this lovely town. A blot on the landscape. Go elsewhere.

Lovely little pub, great atmosphere and prices! It has small but perfect pub garden out the back with a screen to watch sport

Awesome traditional English pub! People and staff were very welcoming and friendly! We had a great time meeting and talking with the local people from the town and learning about Alton's history.

A very safe and friendly place to go to, every time I go I feel safe and have a very good time, every one is very friendly and there is always something going on, I hope it will carry on for many years to come, you mean alot to me, thank you for accepting me, I love you all, please keep up the good times, God bless you all.

Bar staff very friendly and polite and after my first visit they remember me and what I drink which makes me feel wanted and not just another number, the management are friendly and welcoming and are always ready to talk. The security is top notch making me feel safe at all times making me feel safe, I love to drink and socialise there because the patrons are always willing to talk to me and I feel better as well because nobody judges me bt my disability, I would recommend the white horse to everyone for a good and safe time, I hope tobe returning as much as I am able to. God bless everyone there.

Absolutely despicable pub. I saw a large man very drunk and they kept serving him. Then when he needed an ambulance because he passed out face down drunk. They refused to call one because of their reputation. Avoid at all costs. Money grabbers and the owner has had an affair with his sons girlfriend. Says a lot about them as people. No duty of care to their customers. Avoid avoid avoid. I will not be returning. It’s a shame because it use to be a respectable place.

Situated opposite the Wetherspoons which may account for the prices. Wetherspoons must be one of the most soulless pubs I have ever been in. The White Horse had a lovely atmosphere and helpful and friendly staff. Prices compared to Wetherspoons so why go there. Beware though, if you don't like T.V. screens with constant football then this is not the pub for you.

Me and my wife visited here over the bank holiday weekend and it was so welcoming friendly and great value we went back twice more, showing sport and such a lovely atmosphere and the locals were fantastic. The landlady was so helpful they also have a meat draw on the Sunday at 7pm and you get a raffle ticket with every drink you buy, a great proper pub.

Booked a table on the number shown, arrived today to find they do not serve food. Looks like an old web page

Regarding the comment "racist" i can ensure you that we was closed 3pm..everyone was drinking up! As managers we are far from racist.. its a shame on your 1st visit with us you felt this way..and arrived at 3.10pm.

I am writing to put a certain post here correct, the post accusing the landlord and landlady of being racist is way off. I was in the pub at the time the two gentlemen came in 15.10 on Christmas Day and had been asked to drink up as they where shutting, which was fine as everyone deserves to spend time with their loved ones. They asked for a drink but rules are rules and the pub was shutting and no time was the landlord racist or rude to the gentlemen, just bad timing and to accuse them of being racist is out of order.

Went in there on Christmas day with friends. It was in the afternoon. Pub was full of people. But we were told that they are closed and so is the bar, even though I saw customers being served. The only reason they were closed was because we were Asian. It was pretty upsetting. Hope the racist MF reads this.

It was football on TV I guess but stood at the bar for about 10 minutes waiting to be served. Seems locals took full priority and not even acknowledged we were there. We just had to walk out. With management and staff skills like that we will not be back.

Since discovering this pub I’ve had several great evenings at the White Horse. The bar staff are friendly, the beer is kept well and the atmosphere is good. The managers are welcoming and helpful and often organise entertainment such as a band or DJ at the weekends as well as a traditional meat draw on a Sunday afternoon. Highly recommended!

Had a great afternoon/evening here. Stayed longer as had such a lovely time. Friendly, helpful bar staff, especially the 2 young men. Nothing was too much trouble. The managers made us very welcome as new customers. The entertainment was fab! The regulars sure know how to enjoy an evening here! Can’t wait to go back. Thank you!

Went here as a couple on a sunday evening. Have heard many stories of the drugs that get sold here but decided to try out as cheap to drink.

I have to say, if the Ivy House hadn't thrown my dog and me out, I shouldn't have found this pub. It was a wet Saturday and we were in need of shelter. We, my dog and I, had a hospitable welcome and I enjoyed a very good pint of Pride. The dog rather enjoyed the crisps. We will be back.

My party of 20 people were delayed by an hour and a half, but the pub very kindly rescheduled us for later and fitted us in. There was a pre-order on the food, but even so everything arrived on the tables within ten minutes of our arrival. The food was excellent all-round: ample, tasty and fresh, yet modest in price. The staff were amazingly well-organised and welcoming too. Plus, the hamlet-setting is idyllic, on the edge of the High Weald AONB.

New team starting on Thursday night 28th September with new staff and better prices we shall see what prevails.

Fantástico pub mirando desde fuera. Cervezas encima forma y así fue el rugby. Se sentía como estar en la habitación de alguien que así se volvió muy frente amable como la gente interesada en nuestros grupos excursión. Acabo sirviéndonos la ale y la nutria fue agotando casera temía pero afortunadamente no durante nuestra estancia. Saludos.

Despite the board on the outside of the pub, this establishment does not do lunches!! I didn't particularly care for the attitude of the 'bar maid' - very rude - so I wont be going back.

Wonderful squash soup - creamy and thick with just a touch of nutmeg. A juicy burger and wonderful fries (I mean chips according to the English). Great little place with very reasonable prices, a warm fireplace and wonderfully friendly staff!

Lovely old pub with low beamed ceilings. Good laugh with very cheerful staff and an extensive food menu.

Nos sirvieron una cena muy bien preparada y presentada de carne asada para una reunión familiar de 14 personas. Incluso la llegada tardía de algunos miembros de la familia no parecen fluster el personal o efectos en la calidad de la comida que se sirve. Una pequeña zona del bar estaba reservada para nuestro grupo y las mesas estaban establecidos para maximizar la posibilidad de disfrutar la compañía de los demás mientras se cena. La bienvenida fue cálida y también se extendió a los niños en el grupo. El servicio de la casera y su personal era cortés y eficiente y los precios eran asequibles.

fred barnes ripped me off for £500. do not go to or spend your money at this pub. dont line his pockets.

Muy cálida bienvenida de casera, decoración acogedora con chimenea animada. Buen menú incluye cena de bistec especial que elegí. Increíble relación calidad-precio - enorme porción incluyendo casero patatas fritas, aros de cebolla, col, guisantes, champiñones, ensalada y cebollas fritas, todo por 6,95 libras o dos por £12. Delicioso, y el chef salió de la cocina para comprobar que estábamos muy contentos con todo! bebidas a precios razonables, buena selección y la lista de vinos. Los baños están bien decorados con artículos de alta calidad, excepcionalmente limpio. No disfrutamos de un almuerzo en un pub mucho por un largo tiempo ... excelente comida, excelente relación calidad-precio y un servicio increíblemente amable. Sin duda lo hacen un punto de visita aquí de nuevo!

Cinco de nosotros reservamos para el almuerzo de domingo. Nos recibieron con una cálida bienvenida y una chimenea abierta. Pedimos 5 asados y quedamos encantados de encontrar que una libra extra puede tener todas las tres carnes en el menú. Comida llegó rápidamente y estaba bien presentada. las enormes porciones de productos frescos bien cocinados. El asado se sirve con judías verdes, zanahorias, guisantes, repollo, patatas asadas, puré de patatas, coliflor queso, relleno, Yorkshire pudding y salsa! Fantástica relación calidad-precio 8/10 años

Thursday night is steak night and it's two for £10. Great home cooked food , home made chips ,onion rings, onions , mushrooms, peas, and salad served with the steak . Can't go wrong. Definitely worth a visit . Yo man

The meals at the White Horse were lovely and great value for money. We went here every night for four nights as we were stopping at the swan and fancied a change. Thank you to everyone and for making us feel so welcome.

Very friendly, casual pub. A cider and lots of beers on tap. Nice, comfortable indoor seating and a few picnic tables out front as well. The classic English pub facade makes sitting outside quite lovely.

We stopped for lunch at a time when there were only a few other customers. The young man taking our order didn't seem to know what he was doing. 45 minutes later, we asked where our food was, and were told it would take another 20-30 minutes. No reason was given for the delay. We asked for our money back and left.

I went to this pub to try an evening meal, wasn't sure what to. Think when I walked through the door as its a very old building and you just never no what to expect. But the barmaid was very nice and friendly so I had the chicken with baked potatoes and some beens followed by chocolate fudge cake with custard, all freshly cooked non of the processed rubbish just good food and would definitely reccomend this place.

New to the area and spent the evening down at the white horse last night.The locals where friendly and and the landlady too.It's got a pool table and the front garden overlooks the high street.Great place for a drink.
