The White Horse in Fareham

A lovely Sunday lunch - chicken, Yorkshire pudding and fresh vegetables for £14.95. Very very tasty. A great historic pub

Whether you are looking for a light bite or a larger meal, with a friendly welcoming atmosphere, this pub is a must. The location is within Wallington village, Fareham. Run by Kelly & Darren with Dan in the kitchen. The menu includes GF, VE & V. If you haven’t visited, you must.

First time in! I moved to Fareham Jan 23. Proper country pub - its got books which is always a sign of taste and what will suit. This will now be my local. My other locals are multi-screen 'blokerooms', or over-priced fakeries. I am happy to have found somewhere I can sit with the dog after a walk, have a read, or a bit of a chat, enjoy a couple of pints and then walk home. Will defo be doing a Sunday lunch in future. Thankyou.

Amazing local pub with fantastic land lords!

Popped in for a pint. Pleasantly surprised. Plenty of choice. Nice atmosphere.

Lovely pub inside and out. Perfect place for a game of pool with a beer

When you want to escape the office or the house at a lunchtime or an evening the place to visit for a snack or something larger; The White Horse, Wallington. Today’s meal a delicious chicken, bacon and mayo jacket potato with salad prepared by Dan and washed down with an orange juice and lemonade. A lovely friendly environment. Kelly and Darren run a lovely establishment. If you haven’t yet visited, I’d recommend it.

Not been here for about 5yrs...food was only served from Wednesdays.... Had the Haddock , chips , mushy peas... Cooked to perfection.. Great pint of Guinness too... Will be back.. Thank you...!!!

Nice beer "Goodens Gold" and friendly staff. Well done.

Nice pub appalling crowd. One man shouted on his phone throughout our meal. As we walked out he said ‘I hope you die in your sleep’. To be fair if he’d carried on talking I would have. The landlady could not have been less helpful.

Nice friendly pub where we had a lovely Sunday roast dinner would definitely recommend

Lovely roast. Value for money..... Friendly pub .also dog friendly.

Love this pub, very well so friendly and great entertainment laid on, The food is excellent great menu and prices

Popped in a couple of times recently. Had food today, very nice friendly pub, great atmosphere, service and food was great. Highly recommended. Thank you

Amazing little pub with a fantastic atmosphere and friend staff. This is a perfect quaint little establishment with lots to offer. I felt a real sense of comradeship within the locals that you can recreate anywhere else.

Classic village pub tucked away near Fareham. Lovely bar staff and great interior. Goodens gold and Doom bar on tap. Good food.

Superb atmosphere Combined with good real ale choices with friendly customers especially the pool team who we played a recently arranged game 10/10

Darren and Kelly (and the team) are wonderful hosts. The atmosphere is superb, drink and food selection is amazing. With all the live music and DJ (of course) makes for a wonderful experience ❤️

Wow what a wonderful curry, lots of tender slow cooked chicken ,in a lovely smooth curry homemade sauce , served with rice a popadom and mango chutney , I would definitely go to this lovely cosy pub like a home from home experience warm and inviting, Kelly & Darren have made the white horse so inviting, with their welcoming smiles and friendly chat ,well done

Nice quiet little pub have been there a few times. All ways Nice and friendly.

I haven't eaten at the White Horse (yet). Went there for NYE. A fantastic soul band played and the atmosphere was brilliant. The staff are very friendly, as are the locals. I've been a few times and love the feel of the pub. It's always busy ( but not too packed) and very much a 'locals' pub so plenty of friendly customers. It's how a pub should be. I would definitely recommend a visit - a village feel and always welcoming.

Had a pre-Christmas Sunday lunch. Great home cooking with generous portions and really friendly service. Lucky to have such a good local pub. Thank you!

We are super happy that the White Horse is serving food again. We enjoyed a delicious Sunday roast today. Thank you..

Fantastic Sunday Roast servered by fabulous friendly staff in a relaxed atmosphere.

Played a gig here and was made to feel most welcome by Kelly and Darren. Fantastic place to play.

Didn't eat here, but the beer and atmosphere was good 👍

Agreat fun pub good food great happy staff & a very warm wecombe Graet beer

Fabulous Sunday Roast, delicious roast potatoes & superb mashed swede. Will definitely be back

Went here with my daughter for some Monday night dinner, and it was their first week of serving food. Well what can i say, all very delicious, my daughter had sausage, chips and beans, and cleared her plate. I had the lasagne with garlic bread, absolutley delicious, large portions but couldn't stop eating, loved every minute of our visit, fantastic atmosphere. Thank you Darren and Kelly, we will be back.

Fantastic warm welcome and found us a table even though they were very busy, had our hungry baby, pushchair and my dog. After a very stressful morning made my day. Roast dinner was lovely. Beef cooked perfectly, big roasties, gravy and Yorkshire! Veg was perfectly cooked, fresh Brocolli, carrot and swede mash with a real flavour sweet red cabbage. Highly recommended 10/10. Thanks 😊

Lovely pub and with the new owners Kelly and Darren only getting better. Can't wait until they start doing food.

Happy to see the pub revitalised and have had discussions with the new owners about the progress. However the transfer of the real ale from the covered barrels in the bar to the new cellar we warned would be a problem with the beer being too cold! Our visit today indeed proved our point, the beer was too cold. It should he about 14 degrees it was about ten! Also to impress customers a glowing reception would help. Unfortunately the young person serving us was suffering from a lack of personality, and spent the time between serving vaping! Pubs should not allow this practice as it is highly toxic, worse than cigarette smoke and cannot be appropriate for the attraction of families .

I have not eaten in the white horse but if their food is as good is as the way they run this village pub, it will be five star ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ well done Darren and Kelly

Saturday night , great live band, busy atmosphere

Lovely place to pop for drinks with friends and the staff a lovely people and so welcoming. Plus free Pool on Wednesday and Sunday is a nice addition to a few drinks

To say there’s been a huge improvement to this pub since Kelly and Darren took over would be an understatement. I’ve lived locally for many years and I’ve seen different owners come and go. I can honestly say it’s such a nice place to hang out now with friends and family. Staff are lovely, dogs are very welcome. Lots going on, quiz nights, karaoke and live music, with new offerings in the pipeline… watch this space.

Excellent locals pub. Brilliant bar staff. Fantastic atmosphere. Service is second to none. Highly recommended. Ps . And there is a pool table 😉

Lovely pub. Great atmosphere for all, very friendly. New owners Kelly and Darren are great. Really turned this place around.

An absolutely amazing pub, frequent here often since the new landlords took over. The place has a new lease of life and a truly great place to be. The staff are all very welcoming, friendly and attentive. Couldn’t recommend this place enough! Jess is the star of the show 🐶

Came in with friends on a Monday evening for a few quiet drinks, first impressions is the lady behind the bar wasn’t every interested in serving us at all but very interested in talking to her friends, drinks were sort of just shoved at us and then asking for payment was very abrupt, while having our drinks all we could hear was the group seemingly bad mouth other patrons of the pub we swiftly left and will not be back!

Good pub with good selection of beer.

Love this place friendly bar staff, great venue for gigging!! Nice beer!!

Since this pub has been taken over by new landlords it has improved greatly. I never felt welcome before they were there but now it's a great little local.

Just started using this pub as new to the area, has a great homely family vibe about it, we have been using it every week and enjoy the beers, pool table and ambiance, if you want a place in the area to meet family or friends then this is ideal

Such a Wonderful, cosy little pub with a great atmosphere. Staff so friendly and welcoming. Wide choice of drinks and not over priced! Was great to see the new manageress catering for all us sports fans... especially during the Rugby!

Such a lovely atmosphere in here now, Kelly has done an amazing job in bringing the white horse back in to the community, bringing together a wide range of entertainment ,including live bands karaoke and quizzes and a very popular meat raffle on a Friday night, definitely worth a visit .

The White Horse in Wallington is a fantastic pub located in the heart of a superb Village. There is a dartboard, pool table and fruit machine. Friendly Bar staff, and the best Pint of Guinness I have had in a long time. Playing for the Pool Team on a Thursday evening, it is always nice to see the other locals and regulars, whilst enjoying the friendly atmosphere. I cannot recommend this pub highly enough.

Nice welcome. Friendly staff and good atmosphere. Good beer.

Lovely traditional pub, great landlord and landlady.

Recently taken over by Darren and Kelly hugely popular couple who used to manage the Cob and Pen a few years back. Great friendly atmosphere with a very warm welcome. Delighted this old hostelry in Wallington has a new breath of life. Looking forward to many more great nights ahead.

Staff where rude, argumentative, and rasist towards my friends calling him "dark chocolate". I find this disgusting and utterly disrespectful. I do not recommend!.

Great selection of cask ales, friendly atmosphere and beautiful location. Highly recommended

Friendly local. Good atmosphere. 👍🍻

Good beer and they have a pool table and darts

Great bar staff and lovely location near river. Thanks for having us.

Friendly village pub. Keep good beer.

Very friendly staff & locals. Good value. Shame they don't do food though.

Great pub with a friendly village atmosphere.

Lovely pub and great staff. Lovely atmosphere

Lovely landlord and bar staff couldn’t do enough for us and exceptionally great prices! Couldn’t recommend enough. Lovely atmosphere and really friendly will definitely be returning. Thank you!

Bearing in mind it was only 1oclock on a Sunday, they had already had no fish items, you would have expected this late afternoon after a busy lunch!! & My roast was left off the order, so I had to wait, the roast potatoes were soggy, very disappointed & hubby's steak on his full monty was overcooked!!

Pleasant service. Quiet to drink

Really nice pub and landlord was quite intentive.Nice family pub.

Dive of a pub. Landlord a thug. Rather go Sainsbury's opposite.

landlord is a drunk tried to intimidate customers pushed female member of staff who tried to calm things down.will never return whilst under his management. doesn't deserve even a one

Amazing the staff are realy friendly

Lovely place to eat very reasonable, quiet but friendly atmosphere and dog friendly too what more could you want

Came here for a leaving do unfortunately didn't have a full range of beers available due to the brewery dray hadn't turned up ( I'd have been chasing the brewery sooner). Asked about food but that was unavailable as well (no chef). That was a shame. A quieter pub than the cobb and Penn just a short walk away which is frequented by the locals.

Goodens gold straight from the barrel.

Beautiful sitting in garden with a pint watching the sun go down over the sea

A group of six of us meet up occasionally for a meal. This time we chose The White Horse at Wallington. My wife and I were the first to arrive. I said to the man behind the bar that we had a reservation for six people to which he replied, "Sit wherever you like". As there was only one unoccupied table there which would take six people our choice was somewhat limited. The table was, unfortunately, lit by a compact fluorescent lamp which flickered throughout the whole evening. Fortunately none of us suffers from epilepsy. In due course the others arrived and we ordered drinks. I was doubly disappointed, firstly because there was no Appletiser and secondly my alternate choice, tonic water, only came in 125ml bottles which really are designed to go with a glass of gin. You need at least 200ml to go with a meal and I don't see why anyone should be forced to buy two bottles because the right size isn't stocked in the first place. Appletiser comes in a 275ml bottle. We were given menus. These seemed to offer less choice than we had seen on the internet but we were assured that they were the only menus available. We all found something to order. I avoided the steak as the only other time I had steak here I actually bent the fork trying to get it into the meat. However, that was at least 20 years ago so I would expect changes in that time. In all fairness the food was good. I settled for the steak pie and the meat in that was extremely tender and full of flavour. The pastry was nothing to write home about. I think everyone enjoyed their food and some could not manage to eat it all. Three of us had desserts. My lemon meringue pie was satisfactory but I did not eat all the pastry. The two others had pudding desserts (most desserts were puddings), not all of which were eaten. The non-dessert eaters asked for coffee, and this is where the title of this review comes in. One lady asked for black coffee with some hot milk on the side. The waitress came back with the statement that hot milk was not available. The lady's husband politely asked again. The waitress came back with a further message, the gist of which was that Hell was more likely to freeze over than we were to get some hot milk. What??? Is there another so called café/pub/restaurant in the country which can produce custard but not a little bit of hot milk for some coffee? We all felt this was a case, not of 'can't', but of 'damn well won't'. It's not as if they were busy. I didn't see anyone else actually eating while we were there. It's such a pity. The food was tasty and the service otherwise satisfactory. The overall cost was far less than we usually pay, but with an attitude such as the one we encountered we won't be going back.

Good atmosphere, parking is a problem

Try here instead of the Cob and you'll be surprised. Friendly staff & lovely setting. Would definitely go again as the chilli con carne was great!

We were sat outside The White Horse, and the umbrella took flight as it was quite breezy, thus smacking me in the face and breaking my glasses. It did leave a mark on my face also. Other customers saw what happened And concerned went straight to the manager. He came out, took the umbrella off my husband (who had picked it up from the road) and then placed it back and walked away!! He didn't ask if I was ok and when u told him my glasses were broken - no reaction. Other regulars had told me that apparently these umbrellas had done this before. I dread to think what would have happened if this had hit a child. He needs to get them secured for certain. Talk about caring for customers and customer service! Won't be going back there for sure!
