A lovely place. To be greeted by a roaring log fire on a wet and windy day was a treat. Great food. Friendly and welcoming staff.

Nice little pub in the middle of a charming village (too bad the castle can't be visited) The service is pleasant, the dishes arrive quickly. The decor is superb. Incredible atmosphere. Books everywhere to read while waiting. However, when it comes to cooking, there is a problem. It's not bad far from it, but either it's too expensive for the quality, or it's too low quality for the price. In short, not unforgettable. But the warm atmosphere and welcome allow you to get over all that.

It was a lovely eclectic old pub with plenty of character. The live music was a bit loud so if you're sensitive bring earplugs or you could sit outside. There is a beer garden available at the back. The place was busy but clean. The staff was friendly and helpful. The food was amazing 👏. It is dog friendly with a local doggy resident wandering around.

No Ale, despite four pumps (all off). Mrs Jona got an Aperol Spritz and we were both surprised to be charged £14.40 for one drink. I am not coming here again and suggest you don't either. Spoilt our day in Chilham, rip off.

The best pub I've ever been to and I am not ashamed to admit that I have been to quite a few:) There is always a risk when visiting a "local" pub in the small village that you feel out of place. Was totally opposite. On the first visit felt like I've been coming there for decades. Ticked all of the boxes of what a geat pub should be. History and most amazing setting, cozy, great selection of drinks and food, friendly and attentive staff. Not tried the food, but couple we met at the B&B mentioned that was reasonably priced and very tasty.

We were disappointed ☹️ with the food a lot of money for very little food when ordering a baguette I expected to get a whole baguette instead we only got one half never have I ever before just got one half. For this the price was outrageous. This was a birthday surprise lunch never will we go back.

Just had drinks so can't say anything about the food. This ancient pub is in the Village of Chilham. Very oldy worldy with a lovely fire place that had some logs crackling and burning when I visited. They gave live music on some days. There is nearby parking so not very far to walk.

Amazing 16th century pub with character. Very good food generously portioned with vegetarian and vegan options. The staff are friendly and helpful. There is a wide selection of wines, beers, and spirits. The landlord is a larger than life character who may have escaped the pages of Rabelais or Chaucer and knocked about with Bertie Wooster for a time. The pub can get lively in the evenings especially at weekends and frequently hosts excellent live music acts.

Nestled in the beautiful village of Chilham, The White Horse is a wonderfully colourful and welcoming pub! Staff were friendly and the pub itself an absolute treasure trove of curiosities - the resident pub dog is adorable and doggy friends are welcomed with a biscuit. The menu is extensive, catering to all ages and tastes, the portions generous and the prices very reasonable. Service was efficient and staff happy to help with any requests. We cannot recommend The White Horse enough whether is a winter's day sat by the open fire or a sunny day in July relaxing in the beer garden. If you're looking for the perfect country pub, the White Horse is a must!

Cyclists - steer clear. Cycling through Chilham, I was caught in a rain shower. As the White Horse was opening it's doors as I was passing, I gently asked a member of staff if I could possibly have a tissue or piece of toilet paper to wipe my glasses before I ordered a coffee or tea. The curt reply was 'No' with advice to find some public toilets. How charming.

Went here for a meal on new year's eve (have done this before with no issues) and felt rushed and not welcome by one particular member of staff. Our table was booked for 7pm yet we arrived early for drinks. We were seen to our table and presented with menus as soon as we sat down to be told the kitchen closes at 7pm. Needless to say we had actually finished our meal by 7.04. The food was ok but not piping hot. When requesting dessert we were told the kitchen was closed and were then made to feel we were inconveniencing them by requesting another course. Having told the waiter we felt rushed, his answer was "well I'm not the chef!!". As a result, we paid up and left despite our plan being to stay there to see in the new year. We will not be returning which is such a shame as its a lovely pub with a lot of potential. Very disappointed and a sour end to 2023.

Wir waren an einem Freitagabend in diesem Pub um noch 1-2 Pint zu trinken. Die gemütliche Atmosphäre hat uns sofort beeindruckt. Der Service war sehr nett und sehr schnell. Zudem gab es auch Live-Musik (Jazz). Sehr unterhaltsam, jedoch nicht zu laut. Die Getränkeauswahl hat bei uns keine Wünsche offengelassen. Alles in Allem ein schöner Abend. Wir werden den Pub auf jeden Fall wieder besuchen.

Quirky local pub off a picturesque town square. The place is full of books and odd little decorations, in a good way (it's a great if only a little random book selection). The staff was super friendly and service was quick, given how busy it was. The food was nice too and very filling. Price was reasonable - we paid £35 each for main, dessert and a couple of drinks. There are two friendly pub dogs who roam around. Customers were nice too - one of them even got the whole pub to sing my boyfriend happy birthday.

Very lively and popular local pub in a fantastic setting. Dog friendly. Compact with small tables inside but a beer garden with more space. Only one non-alcoholic lager (no non-alcohol or low-alcohol beers). Good food. Very slow service at the bar. Hot and sticky inside on a hot day but plenty of outside seating. Plenty of parking in the village car park.

I’m a taxi driver. I often take people into this place for lunch. I’ve taken a Canadian couple in there on the 13/06/23 around 17:30. Nobody was at the bar. So we helped ourselves to a table. A guy walked Upto us and asked whether you’ve a table booked? We said we’re only here for a drink. He asked the Canadian couple what they would like to drink? When they placed the order, he completely ignored me and served them the drinks. Then my passenger asked the man to take my order. I’ve asked him for a coffee. He said we don’t have any hot drinks. Then I asked for a coke. I’m pretty sure he ignored me because I was an Asian. My passengers said you shouldn’t come here again. They’ve witnessed the whole drama. I was very disappointed by the act.

The White Horse in chillam, if you are a tourist looking for a real traditional English pub this is it. A fantastic unspoiled pub in a beautiful Kent Village. A warm friendly welcome, most importantly well kept, good quality hand pulled cask conditioned real ale, they also serve excellent pub food. It's very rare I give a pub five stars but this is one of them, (my equivalent of bake offs Hollywood handshake). A picture i took back in 1987. Highly recommended

An utterly phenomenal experience. As you walk in you brought into, not only, a warm encapsulated and untouched part of historical Chilham that hits the senses, but a beautiful warm and friendly pub. The staff were beyond helpful and friendly and the Landlord has not only has a smile but also everything calmly under control (along with some interesting history about Chilham itself, to go with the many pictures and beautiful decor of the surroundings). The food is utterly mouthwatering and there were exciting vegetarian/vegan options available for our party. Dogs are more than welcome too, and there is fantastic live music on certain days too! I would recommend a visit to anyone.

Lovely quaint local pub Booked a table but on arrival was told by a young girl it had been booked for next week. No problem though we found a nice table. The menus was rather restricted but I fancied iether the pie or the lamb shank. Though it was early in the evening it was not available. Disappointed I ordered bangers and mash the next best thing. In the meantime time I asked her for the wi fi password but said they had no WiFi by a young lady worker. I thought great at last a pub that doesn't encourage phones. The meal arrived and looked acceptable. My personal experience was it was insipid, plain pork sausages with hardly any seasoning or flavour. The gravy looked nice but just lacked that just something while the mash again just didn't hit the spot for me. Don't get me wrong for most it could be acceptable but I think most people pallets have changed over the years with more exotic and stronger flavours. I paid on a portable point of sale terminal which I'm sure needs wifi. So I asked the male manager or owner why they didn't have WiFi. He said they have, I mentioned I was told they didn't and he apologized.

One of the very best Sunday lunches I have experienced. Served piping hot and with a smile from our server. Beef was generous and left pink in the middle, great Yorkshires crisp on the out side but soft and tasty in the middle. Fantastic choice of vegetables roasted parsnips, red cabbage, cauliflower in white sauce and a side bowl of cabbage, broccoli and green beans. Roast potatoes were perfect for us crisp on the outside and soft on the inside. Thick, tasty gravy and lots of it. Just a great and memorable lunch. Good selection of wine by the glass and beers. Staff are all smiles, efficient and charming. Instead of the beef my wife tried the vegetarian option and declared great alternative!

We had a very good meal at The George at Molash; we were welcomed on arrival and shown to our table, the service was very efficient and the waitresses were professional but also friendly. They looked after us superbly. We chose our meals and these took a little time to come out but we were not worried about this as we were chatting and food was cooked freshly to order. Other tables were informed about a wait for some foods as they were cooked freshly to order. This didn’t affect us too much as we ate quite early - table was booked for 6.30pm. The pub was very clean and tidy. The portions were good - for both dinner and we had a dessert. We finished the evening with herbal teas and were shown a selection to choose from. Overall we had a very nice evening at The George, and had good food, service and atmosphere.

After a long period of absence we went for drinks here on Christmas Eve. Not a single pump was working and a small bottle of Peroni and an equally small (and disgusting) bottle of Prosecco was charged at £10! The manager was overheard telling another punter that they were “running down the stock” which translates to “we’re going to be closing soon”. Such a shame - this used to be an amazing pub years ago. Mis-management has led to the state it is now in. Bring back the former owners.
