The White Horse in Leeds - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Well l have enjoyed going here, until yesterday when my partner was charged £13 for a small bottle of prossecco, 20cl whitch l struggle to understand why, as when l have been to other places l have not paid that amount 😕 and when you look on the website for the price list there isnt one, probably won't go back there again or recommend to anyone, really disappointed

Nice country pub ,good food pleasant atmosphere,dog friendly was a plus

Great Sunday lunch and dog friendly. Service from one waitress in particular was questionable when she started having a go at people for not sitting on the correct tables outside when this can't be helped if you're on your own and someone jumps onto your table when you go inside to order....

Since our last visit the menu has changed. The prices have certainly gone up especially the desserts. £7.95 er dessert. But they are lovely. Unfortunately on this visit we felt the chips were over cooked and burnt. The gammon was very salty the staff offered to cook me something else but I felt it was my choice they can't help how salty it is. Would we go again definitely x

Very friendly staff, colourful and stylish decor and the food was reasonably priced and tasty. Worth a visit.

We enjoyed a Sunday roast here. The food was nice, the portion size was okay and it was well presented. The amount of vegetables was a little tight tho, 1 small plate between 4 of us. The dessert blew us away, 1 of the best desserts I've had in a pub. The cookie dough with ice cream, definitely try it if you enjoy the sweet stuff. The actual pub is a beautiful traditional old style pub with lovely stone bricks on the inside. Service was friendly. Will return to try 1 of their famous burgers

Sat out on the sun deck last Friday having had a terrible experience at The Chequers pub in the next village. The staff were friendly and well presented, food ordering simple from a great menu. We had a superb gammon steak with pineapple salsa and homemade chips which was perfect. Highly recommended

Beautiful food - not cheap but worth the money

The white horse in Ledston is one of the best pubs in Yorkshire (in our opinion). We visit regularly and are yet to have a bad experience. The staff are lovely, the beer is fantastic and the food is excellent, portions are fit for a king with the whole ambiance just brilliant.

Recently refurbished. Good food and beer.

Great Sunday lunch.....very busy, book early. Family of 4 adults and one 5 year old had really good Sunday lunch today. Usual Sunday roasts, plus specials. Staff were welcoming and jolly. Food excellent, and sticky toffee was top drawer. Busy but plenty of space for seating. Will definitely be back here soon. Highlyrecommended

Turned up at 9pm for a drink having been numerous times as we are local we know they stop serving drinks at 10pm as we have been told before,this time we where told they where closing because they had been dead,well no wonder when we questions it and said we where not happy ad we had driven from kippaxwe said we would not be coming back so as we walked out the waitress told us to go forth and multiply but not that politely,know wonder you have no customers

The food ambiance and service was great. However, the selection for vegetarians wasn't brilliant, we appreciate the problem but think it could be better and maybe at more competitive prices. Several dishes were offered with sauces which for the weight conscious could be offered as an extra on the side. Some don't like to ask!

Lovely food and great service. Dog friendly

Outstanding restaurant and staff, food was exceptional quality, beautifully cooked and presented and served by lovely staff, definitely one to revisit. We had Saturday night in there and returned for Sunday lunch. Cannot fault it. Beers and wine also great quality, who can refuse a Timothy Taylor landlord? Top drawer, thanks also for their hospitality throughout 😎

Great meal. Enjoyed the food but would have liked to see a lower calorie option such as a salad and perhaps more choice for vegetarians.

To start with the positives the white horse is a beautiful building and the interior is really smart and clean. It is 100% a restaurant, and while this is not bad in itself, if you want to pop in for a drink your going to be perched at the bar, or outside. This makes it difficult if your group has more than 2 or 3, or if it contains a child. The food is no more than decent. Last time I ate here, i had a fish and chips. The batter was over done and the chips were oven chips. It wasn't horrible but it was far from good. Service has been poor and slow everytime I have gone in. I have had my order overlooked at a meal, rarely greated at the bar, been made to feel like an inconvience because when I brought a push chair to a 16th century inn (that one might be on me). You will always have a long wait ordering at the bar, even if only one customer is ahead of you. The last time i was in the White Horse the bar maid spilt a drink on me and threw me a roll of blue roll while I cleaned the floor. I then paid her for the privilage. I'd love to like this place but it just isn't good enough.

Nice pub quiet but with background music. Great food everyone enjoyed there food a bit too much for my grandma and myself but pushed through the bulk of it friendly kind polite service

Had a Lovely Sunday lunch,fresh perfect good quality food,Would highly recommend.

A nice dining experience. The staff were friendly and helpful. The food was good quality and came out quickly. The pub was nicely set out. would recommend.

Lovely pub, very friendly and welcoming. Good quality real ale, exceptional food. We realised whilst there it is dog friendly too which is a bonus and whilst a small thing, the highchair was spotless, something which is rarely seen. My only feedback would be the steak pie was a little herby and lacked the rich ale flavour that I personally like, but this is just my personal preference and would still order it again. Update. Another lovely meal, spotlessly clean and good food/drink, I could happily keep working through the options. Keep up the good work.

Great little pub the food staff and atmosphere is excellent

Normally have a really good experience at the White Horse but Mother’s Day meal today was a bit of a let down. I ordered the three meat Sunday dinner and got 3 small slices of meat - picture attached. In comparison my wife had beef and received a good portion even though mine was a few quid more expensive. An extra slice of meat was brought on a separate plate when my wife mentioned it but no apology or even acknowledgement that is was a bit stingy from the waitress. The jam roly poly was also quite a miserly portion for the price. Veg portions were also small. Some of the staff were lovely and others were a bit cold. The day before the meal we received a call to confirm table and were told we had a time limit of 1hr 50mins . Bit weird really - not good customer service to make people feel rushed before they even get there. Shame really as we normally enjoy a meal there. Prior to that someone had called me to take a deposit I had already paid - forgivable as mistakes do happen but overall experience just not great. Nobody asked how the meal was at the end so no chance to even feed back. Waiter took the card payment and promptly walked off 🤷🏻‍♂️

Lovely meal. Got my mains before I had finished my starter but overall was a very enjoyable meal. Lovely environment.

Lovely pub. Good attention to dietary needs.

Had the pie's absolutely amazing beat pie I've ever had

First time I had visited and would definitely come again. Nice menu. Food was lovely (Chicken burger with the focaccia bread) and service very good and friendly staff. If I could just ask one thing for next time, please don’t switch the coffee machine off too early. 😊😊

Come hungry! Portions are enormous 😄 had a lovely meal here - the chicken parfait to start was especially good.

Came for Sunday lunch today and couldn't fault it. Superb food and service everyone was friendly and so helpful. One small suggestion maybe increase vegan pudding selection (not vegan but have an intolerance to cows milk) maybe offer dairy free ice cream or cream and a milk alternative for tea or coffee 🙂

Had the steak and ale pie,with chips and roasted veg. Wonderful.

Unreal 2nd visit. I came just before lockdown and it was OK nothing to complain about at all. However my husband and I came last Sunday for dinner and Wow!!! Unreal 😍 We had the patè, delicious!!! Now I have to get that ever time. We both had the 3 meat roast, absolutely perfection! My husband then had the jam roly poly and he's a fuss pot with jam roly poly and he said it was decent! I had the choc fudge brownie dessert, wasn't my fave as had raisins in which I don't like. But that's just a preference thing. Plus I am on a diet so maybe it was a good thing. The only thingy husband said wasn't perfect was his beer was a bit flat but he said it was how it had been poured so nothing a bit of training wouldn't fix. I think it was moretti he had. This was not issue enough to not leave 5 stars and not being picky hence not saying on the day. Just friendly feedback. Honestly the best Sunday dinner experience we have had, maybe ever The food and service really were brilliant. We will 100% be back as we are only in next village.

Great food but the tables cramped

My wife and I plus our little dog had a meal with you today name Booth 2pm and all the staff very helpful and pleasant. I had meat pie 5star my wife ordered Salmon but out of stock so she was little disappointed but understood with it being New year. Overall we enjoyed our visit and we shall be back soon. Happy New year to you all Mr Booth 😊

Lovely place with cosy warm atmosphere, helpful staff, awesome home cooked food and dog friendly 😊

Fantastic place to drink and eat

Very cosy, local gastro pub. Nice atmosphere. Decent food. Dog friendly.

Pleasant place for an afternoon coffee.

Food was nice. Nicely decorated. Service was reasonably fast. Staff were polite and courteous, they were just missing smiles

Fab food as always cooked to perfection, friendly staff & great service highly recommend.

Excellent meal steak pie and chips to die for, staff very friendly and helpful would certainly dine there again 👍

Wonderful meal for my mother in laws birthday. Lovely staff who accommodated us and a 2 year old. We all thoroughly enjoyed our food and ky tomahawk Pork was beautiful. Highly recommended 👌

Amazing well tasty food, a return will be a must.

Didn't have food. Looked good though

After a walk around the nearby RSPB Fairburn Ings, this pub was a welcoming treat, the food was fantastic, with a good menu choice and cracking beer. Every member of staff was very friendly and helpful. Would definitely recommend! The halloumi fries were delicious, the steak and ale pie was perfect, and the portion of fish and chips was very generous.

We had a lovely family meal in a wonderful atmosphere and friendly welcoming place.

Delicious pub Dinner after wine in Hic across the road. Excellent traditional pub grub hosted by friendly people.

Beautiful Sunday dinner. 7 of us went, 3 had triple meat plate 4single meat, 2 drinks each came to just short of £150 great value. 1 dinner was a glutton free option as daughter is coeliac. Gets quite busy, so you may have to wait sometimes, but well worth the wait. Nice outside area.

Not been to white horse for along time, but had sunday lunch last week. Still the high standards i remember. Lovely tasty food and pleasant freindly staff. Wont leave it so long next time.

Not eaten here yet but one of my favourite pubs

Probably the nicest food in the area.

Nice little pub, food tasted good but nothing special. Reasonably priced food and drink and a good selection on the menu. Portions are very generous though (perhaps a bit too big for some of us). Had a ploughman's which was on the specials. Really good but had to leave a lot of it as just too big. Son liked looking at the friendly chickens at the back of the car park. Hopefully they weren't the ones on the menu! Good car parking spaces but can imagine it getting busy on weekends, a midweek lunch for us was lovely and quiet.

Food fantastic service very good really nice place

Fantastic meals. Really friendly bar man who served us. Will come again for sure.

Busy pub set in a beautiful village, friendly staff and punters, lovely food, highly recommended, reasonable prices.

Service & atmosphere was great We only went in for a drink. The food others were eating looked delicious and smelt very nice.

Absolutely outstanding Sunday lunch, all staff very attentive, friendly and professional 👌

Very good on all points. Will go again.

Out of town eatery with cask conditioned beers well kept on the bar. Tested a few like .. .. ..hic

Excellent Sunday lunch. You could tell it was homemade. Huge Yorkie puds. Would definitely go here again.

Food was lovely, service was great 👍

Nice place in a really nice village and nevertheless the food was amazing.

We all had a Sunday lunch and thoroughly enjoyed it. We sat outside as we hadn’t booked, I think I’d choose to have it out there again rather than sit in. We will definitely go back again 😊

Family of 9 went for Sunday lunch, & not one complaint. Everything on the plate was top-notch. The roast potatoes were the best I've tasted in a long time. Will definitely be going again. 😊

Gorgeous food, great staff and atmosphere. Beautiful old pub

Nice place, but for the name of God, please don't call that thing "Greek Gyros". That's a cheap shish kebab at best. Nothing Greek in there...

Food was delicious the staff very friendly and the atmosphere was cosy. Will definitely be coming back.

I had a calzone which, to my surprise, was unexpectedly good. Obviously I can't compare it with an authentic one, but it is by far the best Italian food served in a restaurant in the UK. The place is lovely with a rustic look, a pleasant atmosphere and an very important aspect -Very Clean-.

Love the white horse, if its busy and all the tables are booked and you just want a drink the only place to sit was at the bar so be aware at busy times

Fantastic food, lovely atmosphere, friendly staff

Lovely meal, as ever. Great staff. Highly recommend.

Lovely reasonably priced food lovely atmosphere.

Lovely place and atmosphere, good food,staff pleasant, would go again

Lovely food. Great pub. We ate at lunchtime, not too busy. Advisable to book though

Lovely food . Staff very pleasant

Very friendly and good atmosphere

Great gluten free options for meals...and wow!! What a menu

Booked the table over a month ago love this place for food so we were looking forward to it. It was a family meal for my sisters birthday the following week. Very disappointed in the level of service we received from start to finish. We arrived for our booking time a very young man toom us to our table but wasn't impressed he had to do this. He said would you like to order drinks, we asked to see a wine list or what wines you have he said OK and never came back. 20 mins later after no one coming to us we captured a older waiter who sent some one over. She took our food order too by this time we'd been there 30 mins. The food we received as always was super and delicious no issues there. The very young man came back to clear the table and asked us if we wanted to see dessert menus we said yes. Again he never came back so around 20 to 30 mins later we asked a waitress who brought us them. He then came back 5 mins later and said just to let you know we need this table in 15 mins. I proceeded to explain we had to wait over 30 mins to order as no one came to take our drinks order and left us waiting and then he again left us 20 to 30 mins waiting for a dessert menu. We ordered the dessert but didn't feel welcome at all throughout our visit more of a inconvenience. And at the end rushed to say the least. Been there before for Sunday lunch and never ever received service like that. I understand it was busy but the young man looking after what seemed to be us and the area we sat in was clearly not interested . Little disappointing for a birthday lunch.

Wonderful food,attentive staff. Great meal

I have today been for a meal at the White Horse with a group of friends. Having heard good reviews about it I can say that I was not disappointed. As we were a party of 15 we had ordered in advance. However a member of staff came to check there were no alterations from that requested. The food arrived quickly and was lovely and hot. Our witness, Ellie, went over and above, when one of our ladies felt ill, and stood outside with her to make sure she was ok. All had a good night and many promises to go again. I for one will be returning.

Had a fab lunch today, something different and that's what I like! Grilled Octapus - yummy! yummy! On a rich and tasty risotto mmmm. Credit for bringing a bit of taste & spark to a country village. Need more treats like this. xx

Prices are higher than surrounding area but its worth it. The three of us ahas fish and chips and steak and ale pie. The fish and chips were excellent, batter was crispy and tasty and the chips were well cooked, they also accommodated us with garden peas rather than mushy. The portions were very generous. My partner had the pie and she enjoyed the meat and veg and chips but the pastry was flavourless and the portion was too much for her. I finished off with sticky toffee pudding and custard which was excellent. Overall we were happy and would come again.

Excellent meal will certainly come again the fish and chips were wonderful.

Lovely food and cosy surroundings

I was slightly disappointed compared to previous visits. Service and food a little below the standard we're used to. Hoping it's just a one off.

Beautiful setting, fantastic friendly host, great night out I would definitely recommend this place

Inexperienced staff. Not the best experience

I had the most wonderful time on Saturday, as did my family. And for that I thank you. I understand that individuals might have been affected by the volume of people but a full review must touch on the EXTRAORDINARY planning behind Saturday. A great Christmas light show, Santa, a choir and brass band. All just amazing. Also both pie and peas and indoor dining available, all to the highest quality and standard. This was the best start to the festive season and I enjoyed every second. Well done to all and I will look forward to next year.

My favourite pub in the area always superb food and service but last night was a disaster and the worst thing was no one cared one iota. Too much to put on here but high spot was a £6.75 glass of rose served in a plastic beer glass. Feel free to contact me !!!

Visited for Sunday Lunch, early afternoon booking. Have to book in advance due to popularity although they have plenty of footfall asking for availability. Busy pub/restaurant with traditional decor and cozy atmosphere. Friendly and attentive front of house staff. Generous portions for starter and the roast was ample although I'd personally prefer more roast potatoes. Great sized Yorkshire pudding on the plate as well.

Fantastic pub with great food. Lots of gluten free options too. Well worth a visit.

Lovely little country pub and the food is great

Amazing hospitality, amazing food, cosy rustic and all at a very reasonable price.

Very nice Lamb Sunday lunch. Plenty of meat, veg, gravy and huge Yorkshire pudding.

It was OK good service food was good nice and warm room lighting could have been a little more

Lovely young staff. Good service. Lasagne a bit small for the price but extremely tasty. Meat in the Steak pie a bit dry in parts but overall taste was good.

Proper food, fresh home cooked and delicious. Will be back for steak pie, best pastry had in years. Decent portion and reasonable price

Booked for a family Sunday Lunch 18th Sept. After we were served lunch we waited well over an hour for table to be cleared and asked if we required deserts. We asked for the desert menu and duly ordered deserts and extra drinks. Before we received desert and drinks a member of staff came to say that they needed the table back in 10 minutes unbelievable . When we complained on paying the bill members of staff were seen laughing and my wife told them that they were not professional and then another off duty member of staff and her mother tried to get involved really totally unprofessional. Truth is not staffed sufficiently and that's down to poor management shall not be returning.

Food is good, but the service could be better.

Great old pub in a really quiet village,

Called in for a drink and food. Nice outside space (covered deck area) and a large car park. The young staff could have been a little more friendly (no welcome or thank you's after serving - but that's kids these days I suppose). The food was lovely, well presented and plenty of it.
