The White Horse Inn in Babergh

Couldn’t end up eating due to several intolerances, however the man on the phone couldn’t have been more helpful and did offer to whip me up a curry (unfortunately, my fussiness did come out and I don’t like curry).

Fantastic pub , staff very welcoming , dog friendly. Good food and a great place for some well earned refreshment after a trip round the reservoir.

Staff take a long time to clear tables and floor where food has been left . Need a manager to keep an eye on ths staff . Friendly

An excellent little find in the Suffolk countryside. The host could not have been more curtious, fitting 7 of us in. Food was delish and the potions very generous. Excellent value for money - the puddings were epic.

Stayed there for couple nights, with camping with some friends, and it was a lovely experience, people friendly and food was great. Only comment toilets could be better But everything else great.

Fantastic find …… would definitely recommend, especially the Sunday Roast. 😊

We camped in the field at the back not very good facilities, but amazing pub and food, really friendly

Visited the places with family. Very friendly staff. Felt warm welcome, and my 4 year old was very happy too. Will definitely go again..

Lovely little pub stayed out the back field in my campervan. Nice walk to alton water

Good food very reasonable prices and friendly staff

What an amazing little hidden pub! I was in the village after walking a dog and thought I would check it out. Very dog friendly (the owner has two border collies) Great food! (Cheeseburger with onions, chips and a fantastic salad) Great service! Will I be back?? Most definitely!

Positives : Friendly landlady. Nice burger, chips and salad. Not to my taste the dessert - Nougat, caramel and peanut lumpy bumpy. Awful choice I made. Nice bit of music playing. Negatives : This place needs a good clean, a lot of dust and massive cobwebs. It needs a bit of a spruce up.

Very good meal, a treat from my lovely brother, so don't know what the cost was .

Very friendly atmosphere, lovely food, good for vegetarians and welcoming locals

A quiet retreat off the beaten path a nice place for a pub lunch and a drink.

I have visited this pub twice. I refer to it as “baddadan pub” because they have a rather large sound system and it happens to be when the staff turned it on, Baddadan - Chase and Status happened to be on radio 1. Anywho, first time I visited, I had came down with one of my pal’s and his other half for some afternoon lunch, I had a panini which was rather nice. I could taste good quality ham and cheese. Upon second visit, I was quite disappointed with the service, 3 of my pals and I had stopped here to have potential lunch, the staff didn’t acknowledge us, we all had a pint which was delightful so I guess that makes up for it.

Really nice pub with good food and good beers.

Easter Sunday roast at the White Horse with a delicious mixed fruit crumble and custard desert, for £20 a head. Friendly welcome from the staff here. Good selection of real ale including unusually a mild on tap. Open fire roaring keeping everyone toasty. Generous portion of both main and desert and a simple but varied menu. If you are a camper the pub has a large flat field at the rear with room for 10-12 caravans/tents. Pitches are £15 pn for caravans with electric an extra £5 pn. With the pub in hand would make a lovely weekend stopover.

Lovely little pub. Very friendly.

Me, my Partner and a friend had a great lunch here at The White Horse. All the staff were very friendly and the food was lovely. Will definitely come again

Excellent meal had by all 23 of us

This is a lovely little pub. Very good food. Can't comment on the beer as I had a coffee. As I was riding a motorbike. The staff are very friendly and helpful. I can now comment on the beer, and it is absolutely lovely. Their ale on tap is great

2 friends took me here for my birthday lunch yesterday. Unfortunately we were so cold it spoilt the occasion. One of my friends was getting over double pneumonia and she was actually shivering, we were all really cold. The meat pie and chips were very nice but the broccoli and carrots were too hard, mine went back and more were cooked, the broccoli was a bit better but carrots still hard. I enjoyed my pie. The curry one of us had was nice and she ate all of it. The 3 of us enjoyed our deserts.

If you want good food at a traditional pub then I recommend The White Horse, Tattingstone. Good sized portions and reasonably priced. The barman is an asset, friendly and looked after us well - thank you for an enjoyable weekend lunch.

This is a lovely country pub with fantastic home cooked food, great service.. the barman was really friendly and helpful. I would definitely recommend this cosy little pub to all my friends and family.

Stayed overnight in my campervan, nice flat field and a quiet night. Ate in the pub, simple but good food and good service. As mentioned before toilets were the only downside but I guess it is all part of the character of the pub.

Food great. Service great. Just needed to keep my coat on eating it. Sunday lunch and thd pub was pretty cold. Its a bit basic inside but that a good old English pub for ya. Love it.

Had a great Sunday roast here. Really tasty food and the staff were very welcoming. Great choice of desserts too!

Booked a table for 4 for lunch as we know it can get busy. What a great menu selection and service, the only disappointment was that there was such a great choice we will definately be going back. The curry was exceptional as was the apple crumble. Definate 5 stars.

Fab meal halfway through our cycle around Alton Water. Very friendly service. Great food and portion size. My sticky toffee pudding and custard was delicious. Toilets could be improved.

Group of us had lunch here today, fantastic! Food was delicious, great service and quality beer!

Good, typical pub food I had Scampi and chips and my other half had ham egg and chips. Good pint of cider and very friendly staff.

Typical pub fare, I had Scampi and chips and the other half had egg, jam and chips... Barman was very helpful.

Great pub food and service. Nice pint and friendly staff... would happily visit again.

Cracking pub, super warm friendly atmosphere

This is a hidden gem! We camped here for a couple nights and had an amazing time. It’s a cosy pub with a lovely beer garden and a delicious food. The staff are all fantastic and very accommodating. Thank you for a relaxing weekend away.

We stopped for a break whilst on a family bike ride. The staff and locals were so friendly and the food was great. We liked it so much, we'll definitely be booking a table next time.

The food was very good value and portion size was large. However the fish and chips I had were too greasy. Cooking oil needed changing. A small pub but good range of beers

Stopped after jimmys farm. Probably the nicest quaint pub/resturant I've ever been to. Very friendly

Great out of the way, proper pub. New management are great and very friendly. So happy to see it managed well again.

1st visit. Very friendly staff, fantastic home cooked food and very reasonably priced...we'll be back. And thankyou.

Great value and excellent quality fish and chips and fish were amazing. Sitting outside in lovely sun shine watching locals play Pétanque, very friendly people.🍺🍤🍴

Food is really good The waiter was really upbeat and happy

A very enjoyable place to have a Sunday roast. We had the pork roast and the vegetarian nut roast. Portions plentiful and of reasonable quality. The menu was good and extensive and would like to come back to try. A good range of puddings too, the syrup sponge and custard was exactly what the doctor ordered. For the Venue, there is plenty of parking, a beer garden to the outside and very good beer, I tried the White Adder. Inside the pub had a very friendly atmosphere and welcome.

Had a nice lunch with friends in a proper country pub.

Great service great food the staff could not do enough it was more than 5*. Food was great we had a lovely time. I took a dessert away and that was amazing cheesecake.

Exceptionally attentive and friendly staff, delightful beer garden, charming old boozer and tasty bar snacks. Closest pub to Altonwater, which has a great circular walk. Mind you move your car from the reservoir car park as it closes at 17:00.

Great little pub. Every village needs a pub like this one. Fair prices for well kept local ales. Nice wine for the Mrs. Friendly publicans and locals. Good food prices. Can't ask for more than that. We now cycle to the White Horse every week. Cracking wood fired pizza most Thursdays. Made to order in front of you.

Celebrated a birthday here with friends. The service from the team on duty was exemplary, and refreshing to find nowadays. The food was good, honest, wholesome fare and the ambience cosy and traditional. The beer was good too! We will definitely be back!

Nice friendly local pub. Kids play area outside needs a little TLC but food was good

Lovely pub and a great pub garden.

Well very disappointed with the Sunday roast , all veg uncooked and beef too pink , roast potatoes weren't roasted or seasoned. . So all in all not worth the money sorry.

Really friendly pub, very good service and lovely food, would definitely use again if in the area.

Great little pub, been a few times, staff are also great, cracking food to finish

Friendly pub with good Sunday roast lunch, generous portions, lots of choices including vegetarian, quick service and really helpful and lovely staff. Looking forward to visiting again.

Very nice pub....lovely food and Latte coffee. Dogs welcome. Great all round & staff very friendly. Will definitely return.

Just had an excellent roast dinner and delicious dessert at a really good price too. Very friendly staff and cosy atmosphere. Will definitely go here again for another roast dinner.

Alton Water is well worth a visit and so is the White Horse. We had a good meal, pub classics at reasonable prices. Not a problem being gluten free. Food was well cooked, a very enjoyable visit.

Very friendly staff. Lovely little pub. Proper homely feel. Stumbled across the pub whilst driving to look for food. Glad we found it! The food was lovely as well. Very welcoming as well with the locals. This was a big thing for me due to social anxiety and I felt very comfortable here.

The nicest group working there, went with 4 of us, food was incredible, huge portions, and insanely well priced. We had starters, mains, puddings, and two drinks each, all totally below £30 a head ! Couldn’t recommend more.

Just finished eating here and it was one of the best meals I’ve had! The calamari, roast dinner and syrup sponge was absolutely delicious and couldn’t have been better! The staff are also so welcoming and lovely, 100% recommend coming here!

Christmas Dinner for 24 friends. Absolutely brilliant service, great food, very reasonable and lovely friendly staff. Could not fault it in any way, thank you so much

Nice staff, chips amazing and a nice family-friendly vibe

Friendly pub, traditional feel with wood floors and furniture apart from some sofas around an open fire. Close to Alton Water so good position for walking and cycling. Had a drink and food which was very good and very good value. Would be happy to go back again.

Lovely little pub well priced and very friendly q

Excellent experience. Highly recommended.

Perfect end to a day at Alton Water. The welcome was warm, the food was excellent and very reasonably priced. I had fish pie for £10 and the desserts are amazing! Can't recommend enough, great place to chill - will be back!!

Great historic old pub. The food was excellent and the service was friendly and second to none. We’ll be back for sunday roast soon

Great place to stop with your caravan we stop here regularly friendly staff great food

Lovely pub! All the staff were so friendly, food was proper pub food (good value and good size portions). We stayed the night in the field, we were the only ones so was lovely and quiet. Toilets were open all night, good value again and had electric hook up. We will definitely be back.

Great food Lovely little pub with ample free parking Dog friendly Good Food Good Prices Genuine Good country pub

One of the best country pubs. If they can stock at least 4 real ales ALL the time at around £4.00 to £4.30 a pint ,then why can't others closer to busy towns. Those who tell me tyey can't afford to chuck away "off"ale that's not been drunk. No demand they say. Laziness I think. This pub's hospitality is excellent also. Me and my buddies from the club "The Old Boy's Biking and Hiking"(Ipswich area) love this place.

Fabulous olde worldy pub but well up with modern catering very dog friendly 👍very reasonable prices 👍💓situated right beside Alton Water with Fantastical walks and scenery 👍💞 Love It

Great food here today, very friendly staff and excellent service from Yousef.

A very enjoyable lunch was had by the 3 of us, delicious local ham and lots of it. On the downside the pub is not disabled friendly so we had to eat in the garden The staff were extremely friendly and tried to make things as easy as possible in the circumstances

Very nice country pub even though it was quite late when me and my partner stopped for a cheeky drink on way home from a long day out. Very friendly staff.

Lovely local village pub. Stopped in for a drink with the family, friendly staff and a great pint of ale!

Decent lunch and friendly staff and locals

Friendly pub, still old fashioned

Nice little pub, quite traditional, went to a chopper show very pleasant

Lovely people, dealt with a party of 19 with no trouble at all. Traditional food, nicely done. How they managed to bring out all diners at once I’ll never know! Oh and lots of cheesecake choices…

Stopped in at the White House in Tattingstone after a ride around Alton Water for a bit of lunch and it was lovely. I would definitely recommend for anyone looking for some refreshments mid way through a trip around Alton Water!

A great English country pub. Good beer and chips. I had a Muldoon ale. The outdoor se sa ting is plentiful and well spaced out. Our family group enjoyed it.

Half an hour's drive away and perfect for a weekender. Great place.

A lovely pub, friendly staff good food and beers. Will definitely vist again. Recommended.

Not the first visit but was for before the (C19) thing , friendly atmosphere,nice inn/pub been renovated and the food quality,huge portions a gem of a country pub not expensive either!

After a 3 hour walk a HUGE roast was just the answer today, a big thank you to the White Horse staff

We only popped it for an afternoon cup of coffee but liked the location and local atmosphere and somewhere on the list to go back for food, Nice walks around reservoir.

Fab little village pub we popped in to on our way home from a day out awesome friendly staff and locals 🙂

Went for the Wednesday steak night and to be honest this was far better than any steak house I have been to. Steak was so tender and tasty and sides were a joy. Some how fitted a dessert in and that was top restaurant quality as well. Need to visit more often.

Sunday lunch for four and a dog. Great service, even though we turned up nearly an hour early. The roast pork was great and the vegetables beautifully cooked. Vegetarian lasagne was also good and the beer too. When the dog upset a glass they came over with towels to help mop up. The only thing we could fault was the toilets which were a little rough but a small price to pay for a great pub with fab food and service. 😁

Friendly locals and staff. Well kept beer and great looking food (I was too late for the kitchen opening) It's a traditional pub with a roaring fire and a warm welcome to match. Located in a quiet village it's ideally situated for walks and for a pitstop on the way to the Harwich ferry which I do every time I cross the north sea. They also have a simple campsite with electric hookup. I've only ever stayed in a tent but there are motorhomes and caravans parked up sometimes.

Great food and drink, in a wonderful atmosphere, created by lovely staff. Couldn't ask for anything more.

Made a note of The White Horse Inn while cycling past towards a ride around Alton Water. Stopped in on our way back noting straight away that it was a good old traditional pub, family and dogs welcome too. Greeted and served immediately by friendly staff, so we decided to eat here as well. I had a chilli with chips, my wife settled for a good old egg, ham and chips. Must say that we both enjoyed our food. It was such good value for money and hearty portions. Certainly worth popping in if you are passing.

A super roast dinner in a dog friendly pub. Perfect way to end a winter walk. Staff were also lovely. We will certainly be back.

Very friendly, nice fire too. Was extremely busy when we went, but service did not suffer. Would definitely go again.

Great pub for a quite friendly pint

Had a great few hours here on Saturday in a large group for a friend's 50th. Food was lovely, piping hot and very well organised. Staff were all fantastic, welcoming and very helpful. Apprecuate the efforts of the birthday banners and for the birthday drink given to help with celebrations. Will happily return again if we're in the area.

Lovely food, staff very friendly and a nice warm environment to be in. All in all very welcoming. Definitely go again.

Amazing food and lovely care and hospitality with a roaring fire. Pet friendly too.
