The White Horse in Suffolk Coastal

Really lovely experience from start to finish. I had lunch here with a couple of friends and a dog. We were all made to feel very welcome with first class service and lovely food in an attractive, friendly pub. Would recommend.

Amazing dog friendly pub. Lovely pub with incredible food and above and beyond service especially with our pooch buster who was waited on hand and foot. Can’t recommend enough and would be our local 100% if we lived here

Sharon and team. As always a superb meal Hospitality is fabulous, Cooper our dog is spoilt rotten. Atmosphere is brilliant. Love it! 😊❤️

First time visit here last night it won't be our last. It was so good value all piping hot and homemade. Lovely warm welcome with friendly staff. This pub is a hidden gem. Thanks to all at Rendham White Horse. 😋👏

Spectacular food and service. Popped in after our walk for a lite bite to eat. Ww were not disappointed. Starter portions are very generous. Mushroom and Stilton risotto flipping delicious. Staff super helpful, friendly and welcoming.

A great local pub with above average food, friendly service and a real community atmosphere. My top choice for a decent pub meal. Nothing fancy but really good. Love the guest cheese option!

Whilst on holiday in area called in for evening meal. Quite a varied menu and specials board. The ambiance best described as good old fashioned village pub with a modern take. The Landlady and staff were first class, friendly and attentive. Food was fresh and superb, so good we booked Sunday lunch there. This was also first class, gorgeous beef roast and some of the best custard west of the North Sea.

Had a beautiful meal with my 2 grandchildren, the food was amazing, so much so that the smile on my granddaughter’s face was an absolute picture when the food was brought out, after a very short wait. The staff were all very welcoming and friendly, the whole experience was great and if I lived close by and not just on holiday it would definitely be a regular place to eat for me.

Lovely country pub with a warm, welcoming hostess. Great steak and kidney pudding too!

Adorable little free house with a quaint and rustic charm situated within a beautifully bucolic town. Out of the way for some, but worth seeking out especially if you have dogs. Food was a simple, small, menu that was done very well with no shortcuts when it comes to the things like gravy and custard. Lovely locals, lovely atmosphere, lovely time. Lots of love from Bella too!

We had a beautiful Sunday Roast Beef dinner. The atmosphere was perfect , Sharon and Alice were so welcoming , their customer service was second to none. Compliments to the Chef. We will be back and definitely recommending this wonderful pub. Thank you Tim and Deb

We are staying in the area and drive past the Rendham White Horse daily. Yesterday we thought we'd give it a try for lunch. What a jewel! The pub is lovely, with beautiful and interesting art and classic jazz playing softly in the background. The food was amazing. We weren't sure whether lunch would just be sandwiches, but it is the same menu as dinner, and there are specials, which yesterday included a delicious and authentic starter of Italian-style seafood salad, perfect for a hot summer's day. We loved the newspaper-style menu. We will definitely be back soon!

I would totally recommend this lovely pub…excellent food cooked by Matthew…I had the rump steak and the hubby had the burger one of the best steaks I’ve had cooked to perfection particularly liked the cubed potatoes welcoming change to chips…we were so impressed booked for the following evening…Love all the added touches totally dog friendly…our Bailey had a blanket to chill on and treats and a bowl of water!! Sharon…the owner and front of house was so friendly and chatty lovely lady!! You must go if you are in the area we would certainly visit again… Helen & Pete from St Neots Cambridgeshire

Delightful country pub, excellent food, dog friendly, perfect!

A very friendly, welcoming local pub that serves some really good local ales. Food is always excellent when I’ve eaten here. I’d recommend the calamari on the starters. Always plenty of options on the specials too. I’d recommend booking in advance where possible as it can get busy. Also worth noting that the pub is very welcoming of dogs. We are very lucky to have this pub on our doorstep.

We found this pub whilst holidaying in Suffolk and decided to visit one evening. Despite not being local and having to ask lots of questions about whether its table service or not, is cutlery brought over and where the toilets are etc, staff were very friendly, happy to answer questions and polite. It's quite a small pub and there wasn't any room to sit inside so we were offered a table in the gardens. I was a little apprehensive sitting out there as the pub have a very big dog outside which is loose and I have a fear of dogs, but I asked the staff how friendly the dog is and they were reassuring and non judgemental of my fears which made me feel better. They said the dog would not approach us and that if we choose to stroke her she's friendly, and they were true to their word as the dog just remained in one place unbothered about us through out the duration of our stay! My partner and me both went for the ribs meal, which was very good value for money as this was a whole rack of ribs for £14.50. Slightly disappointed it didn't come with chips as advertised, it instead came diced which potato squares for some reason, but this is only a small criticism. We ordered the sticky toffee pudding and black forest cheesecake for dessert, these were both very good quality, especially the sticky toffee pudding! A little on the pricey side but we can at least say they were very tasty. We really enjoyed sitting out in the gardens on a lovely summer evening and it was a wonderful way to spend our last night on holiday.

A lovely little pub with a local vibe. Dog friendly and lovely food!!

Excellent steak , would definitely recommend. Food and service are always first class. Very friendly.

Popped in for an evening meal, staying nearby in the local holiday park. Could not be more accommodating, food was delicious- highly recommend

Nice friendly pub. VERY dog friendly. A bit dated inside but the service more than made up for it.

Lovely, friendly pub, which we stopped off at for some lunch. Food was delicious and good portions. Very good value for money. The lady who served us was very welcoming and friendly. She made our dog welcome with some biscuits, too. Will definitely visit again.

Excellent service and food good portions full of flavour, good atmosphere and clean toilets.

Excellent everything!!! Friendly welcome from the lovely landlady while hubby toils in the kitchen 😉 But it's obviously a Labour of love and it shows. All homemade dishes, my Steak and Kidney pudding was delicious, as was the special of the day chilli with nachos, salad and avocado dip. The beer is well kept, the pub itself is in a lovely setting, with a nice beer garden if the sun is shining. Luna will bark at you to start with, but it's an attention seeking bark, she's very friendly. Luna is the pub dog not the landlady. And lastly it won't empty your pockets....or craftily it will, because you will keep on going back.

Best pub I have visited in ages. Beautifully kept beer and great food at very reasonable prices. Landlady and bar staff were delightful. Excellent place to visit if you are staying at Carlton Meres as it is just a 20 minute walk across the fields and very quiet country lanes so no worries about driving. Check out the public footpath on your OS map. A really easy stroll to a great pub and the highlight of our holiday. Can't wait to go again. Probably a good idea to book in advance if you want food especially on a Sunday.

Occasionally you call by chance in a small public house serving food, expecting to be disappointed. Today my wife and I dropped in at Rendham White Horse and had a great experience. First class meals for both of us. An excellent friendly service from the landlady, quality music playing softly in the background, and an honour to meet, head of security, Luna; a very calm dog with a sense of presence. We have no hesitation in giving a very positive review. Clearly a couple who know how to run a good pub. Well done.

Lovely food, great atmosphere and service. Big selection on the menu and the specials board. Great deal on specific days. Had steak and a pint for £15.

First time eating here on Saturday night. Great friendly service and great food. Good varied menu. Really nice atmosphere, overall a lovely pub.

Best pub in the area. Lovely managers. Well done

Loveliest hosts imaginable. Friendly pub dog. Gorgeous food . Would definitely visit again

Thursday afternoon lunch during the school holidays. Pleasant walk over the fields from the cottage we were staying in to get to this lovely traditional village pub just across the road from the church. Delicious lunch and very friendly and attentive service. Inside of the pub recently and tastefully refurbished. We’ll be back.

Brilliant local pub. Great selection of beers and delicious food! Would wholeheartedly recommend

Messaged on facebook to book a table for my family on Easter Sunday and received a prompt response. Upon arrival we were welcomed with a smile and shown to our seat. I had advised when booking that our dog would be us and their dog friendly approach was evident. Treats, a water bowl and dog blanket already set at our table. The fire was warming and the staff were attentive and friendly. We ordered Beef and lamb roasts and the food was delicious. Finishing with a delightful sticky toffee pud and custard. Would highly recommend 👌

Well readers here I am again reluctantly recommending another fabulous pub with dynamite food. The reason for being reluctant is the more of you that discover how good this place is the harder it will be for my wife and I to book a table. On entering the pub you are greeted like long lost friends & a roaring fire awaits. We were a party of 4 my wife and I and our two friends, we were show to our table and give a broadsheet ( yes I do mean a broadsheet) menus in the style of newspapers of old. The menus had interesting facts, jokes, sudoku as well as a good range of dishes. We chose a large merlot, whisky & coke, a pint of Victoria ale and 1 other ale, senior moment I’ve forgot what it was.. We ordered 3 Sunday roast lambs &a roast beef. I have not included any photos not out of spite but all the photos previously taken are absolutely correct. The food on arrival was plenty full and served on hot plates, we we even given without asking extra gravy ( which was to die for). The food was heavenly massive Yorkshire puds, parsnips, peas roast spuds, gratin potatoes and a large amount of either lamb or beef. ( the slides of beef were thick and tasty ). Deserts I’m ashamed to say we even managed to squeeze in a pud, 2 x ice creams , 1 x Syrup sponge and one sticky toffee pudding which I’m convinced was home made as just superb. We will definitely be coming back..

Impromptu decision for our first visit. Thirty minutes from home but worth it. Lovely greeting, good food and service, pleasant atmosphere. Down on our list of places to visit again.

Great food, lovely staff, well priced, would highly recommend. Freehouse so good selection of drinks

Very friendly country pub with good food and friendly service and also dog friendly definitely will go back 👍

With an impromptu call from my folks this morning we had yet another delicious Sunday lunch at the Rendham White Horse. The roast beef was SO tasty, everything was perfectly cooked. The atmosphere is relaxed and service, great. It’s becoming one of our favourite places to eat.

What a lovely experience. Lovely food and drink. The staff were extremely friendly and helpful. I wish we lived close by, so we could visit regularly

Lovely meal here while on a short break in Suffolk. Delicious food and warm welcome in a small peaceful dining area with a fire. If I lived here I'd go every week. Try the Game Suet Pudding and the Chocolate Orange Bread and Butter Pudding. I did!

Lovey welcome to us and our dog. In fact the dog got very spoiled- a blanket put down under the table for her and a line of doggie biscuits waiting on the table. Very good food and the new owners made every effort to make us welcome. Very much worth a visit. We are locals so we will be back!

You guys do it so well. Our Sunday lunch was excellent. Lovely relaxed atmosphere, great open fire and fab wine. Thank you, we will of course be back.

Five stars aren't enough for the wonderful, friendly welcome, plus great food and service - and that's just my labrador's review! As owner-occupiers, the landlady and chef team work exceptionally hard to deliver good value, superbly cooked food and good beers. The Rendham White Horse is exceptionally dog friendly, with a blanket, water and biccies provided and a log burner to curl up near for a snooze. Luna, the house dog is welcoming and it was great to enjoy a quality dining experience in such a relaxed atmosphere.

Great meal at The White Horse last night. Such a warm welcome, super cosy seats next to the wood burner. Our toddler was super spoilt with great service and some animal dominoes provided on the table. Food was delicious and prompt, real ale and wine great too. We loved our visit and we’ll definitely be back!

Great country pub, lovely warm atmosphere. Staff, beer, food & fellow patrons where great. Maybe suggest a slightly larger variety of beers, other than that, fantastic..!

Having been born in Rendham it was a real trip down memory lane as it’s been many many years since I have visited the pub. A lovely meal on a Thursday evening & it was good to see the pub busy with so many people dining. I had my dog with me and she was made very welcome with some biscuits, a water bowl and a blanket to sit on. The service was top notch and the food was simply delicious. I would really recommend a meal here and I will definitely visit again when next in the area. Lovely friendly welcoming atmosphere and the log fire was great.

The most fab dog friendly pub. Biscuits and dog blankets provided. Food exceptional. Staff so friendly. Warm cozy atmosphere

Very warm welcome. Very friendly pub. Great atmosphere. We were on holiday nearby and went in for a few drinks. Obviously well used by the locals which is good to see. The chicken and bacon terrine starter was excellent and it was nice that we were able to order a starter only as we’d eaten at lunchtime. If you’re in the area a visit is a must. Thank you Sharon and Matthew.

Great welcome and fabulous food. Warm and cosy atmosphere with very friendly service. Food arrived swiftly and was great value for money. Thank you, we will be back!

Great welcome. Wonderful atmosphere with friendly attentive service. The food came swiftly, was very tasty and great value for money. Will return again soon.

Had lunch here today for first time. First class food and friendly and efficient service. Would highly recommend and will definitely return.

Amazing dinner tonight, landlady was so friendly and welcoming and the food was beautifully presented and delicious. The pub dog is gorgeous! Would highly recommend Will definately go back! Thank you

We visited for lunch on a Friday, having walked over to Rendham from the local Lonely Farm Campsite. We were warmly welcomed a lovely, friendly woman behind the bar. We don’t drink alcohol, so asked for soft drinks, of which there was a good choice. However, the bar appeared to be well stocked, with something for every taste. We both ordered the steak and kidney suet pudding, a dish from both our pasts. The food came without undue delay and was absolutely piping hot and delicious! The pudding was not too large, yet would be sufficient in size to satisfy most diners’ appetites. We were offered the dessert menu, but declined due to the walk back! Our lunch was lovely and we would really recommend a visit to the Rendham White Horse.

Lovely warm atmosphere, friendly staff and the steak was great.

Amazing place with fantastic food. Sunday roast is out of this world. Ingredients locally sourced and fresh. Yorkshire pudding definitely home cooked as enormous! Reserving a table is a must as a popular venue. If you have dogs there is a blanket, water bowl and treats ready for the fur babies arrival. The Staff are lovely and very welcoming. Nothing is too much trouble. Can't recommend this place enough.

Visited in May and today while camping nearby. Fantastic place to eat and especially for people with dogs. The food is locally sourced, fresh and beautifully cooked. Sunday roast out of this world! Yorkshire pudding is definitely home cooked as enormous. Reserving a table is best as a popular venue. If you have dogs there is a blanket, water bowl and treats by your table. Staff are lovely and very welcoming.

Brilliant food and nothing was too much trouble Highly recommend

Good food, good ale and great service.

Couldn’t recommend this place highly enough. Excellent service, staff and food in a beautiful building.

Superb example of a classic English pub with outstanding food and decor. Everything is made even more special by the wonderful landlady who is very friendly and orchestrates very efficient service of the tasty food: the grilled offerings are a particular success.

Pleasant atmosphere, friendly welcome, good beer, good food!

Received a warm friendly welcome when we called in for Sunday lunch. The three of us had the Sunday roast. All of us thoroughly enjoyed the food and wouldn't hesitate to recommend this lovely pub.

So friendly and welcoming. Tasty menu. Shared a dessert. Looking forward to returning. Dogs are welcomed and treats and blankets provided. Great beer section too.

Delightful country pub. Nice decor inside. Really friendly welcoming landlady, whose partner is the chef. The menu changes regularly and Sunday lunch is delicious. Vegetarian options are good as is the flame grill. All homemade food and a good wine list for the non-beer drinkers, although by all accounts the beer is tasty. Dog friendly with a personal touch, I wish my dog was still alive to enjoy!

Super welcoming dog friendly pub. Gorgeous inside, very delicious food. Dogs probably more welcome than humans 😄 of course this is a joke, but our table was equipped with a blanket, water and treats for our boy. The food is super delicious. Highly recommend it.

Lovely atmosphere. Dog friendly pub. My 5yr old dog had never been to a pub with me since I had her when she was 3yrs old. The pub landlady is exceptional! She put me at ease with my dog. Food was out of this world. Good value for money, excellent efficient service. Would highly recommend. Will be back.

Amazing service, quality food and great atmosphere.

Had a really good evening in the White Horse , the food was excellent with a good choice of meals , Sharon the owner was welcoming and couldn't do enough for us ,large pub big garden and full of charm will be going back

On our week's holiday we ate here 3 times. All the meals were good but the Sunday lunch was great, best meal of our holiday. The staff are very friendly and they looked after our dog amazingly. He had a mat, water and treats waiting for him. Cannot thank them enough for the great hospitality.

4 of us had dinner in here and was greatly surprised by the portion sizes and timely manor it was served in. Food was hot and tasty. Steak, medium rare cooked to perfection.Lamb meatballs, gorgeous. Fish Pie, scrumptious and Vegetable Chilli, nice and spicy. When in the area would definitely go back again.

We visted here again today, as usual the Sunday roast was delicious as was our choice of dessert. Both members of visable staff were friendly, helpful and attended to our every need. We would thoroughly recommend this pub. Keith and Hazel Ford

After passing by on Saturday I noticed this pretty little pub and decided to call and see if I could book for Sunday lunch the next day.... I was greeted by the landlady and she kindly squeezed me in despite the fact it was Fathers day, the next day. I asked if dogs were allowed and she welcomed them. The following day I arrived and was again greeted by the landlady. She took me to my seat and it was set for me AND my dog. There were dog biscuits lined up for her, a water bowl and a lovely comfortable blanket for her to curl up on. Not unusual at this pub, if you've stated that you have a dog. I was handed the Sunday menu with my drink and chose the beef. It came beautifully served with a separate dish of vegetables and a little jug of gravy. Everything was homemade, no frozen veg or pre-prepared roasties. Delicious beef and even homemade horseradish. I was recommended a glass of Cabinet Sauvignon and it didn't dissapoint. For dessert I had fresh cherries with meringue and Eton mess ice-cream yummy 😋 I decided to have coffee in the lovely garden at the rear of the pub and the landlord( and also the chef ) kindly brought my dog a tasty piece if pork which she devoured. !!! All in all a well run, delightfully decorated and excellent food...... 👌 this would definitely be in my top ten .

I'd like to go back again which says a lot

Great pub with really friendly service. (You gotta meet the dog). Great hearty food. Steak and kidney pudding requires loosening the belt a notch. Big portion of scampi. Great chicken wings with soy dressing. Yum.

Lovely pub, welcoming staff and excellent food, would definitely recommend a visit here.

We stopped here on the off chance whilst away for the weekend, and all I can say is WOW! We really fancied a roast dinner and The White Horse did not disappoint us! We were warmly greeted and our order was taken quickly. We sat outside in the glorious sunshine taking in the scenery in this beautiful little village. We only had to wait about 5-10 minutes for our food. And what we received was THE best roast dinner we have ever been served at a pub! There was a generous portion of pork, a huge yorkshire pudding and all of the trimmings which you don't always get at other pubs - the potatoes, parsnip and stuffing were spot on! The veg was served seperately in a bowl - fantastic choice - carrots, peas, red cabbage, courgette and cauliflower cheese - I love my veg so I was in heaven! And I loved the little extra touches like the gravy boat and apple sauce which were just brought to the table without us even having to ask! It was hands down absolutely fantastic, I literally couldn't find fault in any of it! We will definitely be back if we are ever in the area again - just disappointed that we don't live closer!

Super dog friendly and the food and service is fantastic. Loverly decor and very welcoming . Best pub in the area by far

Paul and I just had a lovely meal and made very welcome x

Lovely country pub with comfortable feeling run expertly by chef and his wife. Food excellent with really good menu. We have eaten there twice with friends who eat there regularly and are never disappointed. Would definitely recommend making a detour for this friendly dining experience.

Mary Ann & I have had two excellent meals during our week's stay in Rendham. Wonderful food and the service we got from Sharon was first class. Teddy & Rufus our two dogs also received a lovely welcome and the dog treats were well received! My compliments to the Chef and we will certainly be back next year. Very highly recommended and thank you.

Great food, and very helpful staff, quick service xx

Stopped for lunch whilst on a bike ride. Service was excellent, food was delicious, choice of local beers all kept well.

Delicious food, lovely choices on the menu, and friendly helpful staff

Just had a fantastic lunch here. Booked a table, as we have dogs… got there to find our table set with added dog biscuits, blankets and water bowl. The food was excellent, as was the service. Highly recommend a visit, we will definitely return #...

Absolutely excellent food, service and super dog friendly. Highly recommend a visit x

The White Horse is a welcoming local pub, serving classic pub food in good sized portions. Nice steak and kidney pie and scampi Nice tasteful decor and friendly service and the Wherry amber ale on tap was very welcome. Most importantly, they are OPEN evenings...

What can I say about the food in this pub, YOU MUST GO AND VISIT. The roast dinner was out of this world. We have stayed at a holiday park around the corner twice and only just found it but will be going every time...

Professional and friendly staff. Will definitely come back and recommend others to visit

Lovely setting. Ambiance felt really nice. All four of us were very happy with our meals. Would definitely go again.

Most brilliant find, great ambience, genuine home cooked stunning food, and the most friendly of staff. Dog friendly as well

Host at the pub was excellent And the food was lovely and hot.

Friendly pub with great service, food is superb , highly recommended. Will be back soon - well done Sharon & Matthew 🙂

We are gradually working our way through a Suffolk Walks book and our walk starts at the church and return via the White Horse. The walk is a 5 k ‘stroll around Rendham past a few very nice houses fields and one building which has...

Cannot speak highly enough. Of any pub, restaurant or eatery of any kind I have ever been to they have the best service, ambience and most utterly delicious food. I rarely write reviews but in this instance this place deserves not 5, 6, or 7 stars but 10 and above, a spectacular reopening and all the best wishes for the new year.

Lovely country pub, very cosy in the autumn and winter.

This is an attractive pub staffed by an excellent team who kept it going by sheer hard work despite the tenants, Woodforde's Brewery who really could not run the proverbial. Pubs like this are vital to the survival of rural communities. Even in these dire...

Good food, good service, friendly staff. Fair prices

Very friendly service, great atmosphere and excellent food. Let's hope this place re-opens very soon!

Wow! Best Sunday lunch, small bet great menu, so flavoursome, expertly cooked, ample portions, great service. Compliments to the amazing chef and his team

Had great food dining for two. Jodie with her team, were so friendly and welcoming. Fantastic service.
