Used to like going here but recently the portion sizes have turned into a joke. Had fish cakes for a starter. Was the size of 2 x 3mm thick slices of peperoni. For mains I had a curry and rice, the food was nice but again the portions are terrible (it is not as if rice is expensive). So after leaving we had to go somewhere else to have a real meal.

I’ve been coming here for the last ten years: the food remains excellent authentic Thai food for a very good price, with service to match. This is the heart of the village with a great atmosphere. Cannot recommend enough.

This is our favourite “ go to” restaurant for so many reasons. Food is fresh and cooked to order, tasty and delicious. Atmosphere is quiet, tranquil and cosy and service first class. In winter the huge log burner adds a really homely touch. The prices are so reasonable, food and drinks all fairly priced. Beautifully clean and tables nicely spaced out. Fresh stir fries, massaman, panang, lots of thai seafood and of course red and green Thai curries. The Pad Thai is outstanding . Always go for tempura prawns or salt and pepper squid for starters. Staff are always happy, friendly , and welcoming. Love this place ! Cannot fault it. Oh yes, plenty of parking too

Excellent food, service and quaint setting. Really really good. We had the mixed starter which gave a variety of tastes to try. We then had pad Thai, duck red curry and the sweet and sour chicken. All was very fresh and delicious. Well worth a trip.

A group of seven of us turned up for lunch. The welcome was warm, friendly and genuine. A couple of tables were swiftly moved together so that we could all sit as one group. I asked if I might have some Tom Kha Gai soup (which was not on the lunch menu!) since I love this particular dish. The excellent staff were unfazed by this request and said of course I could have it! When I described this soup to my friends, some of them wanted to try it too. The food arrived very promptly (even the off-menu Tom Kha Gai) and it was all beautifully presented and tasted absolutely delicious. It was also very reasonably priced. All in all, a really good experience and I would recommend this pub to everyone!

The best food I have had out for ages, fed up of mediocre meals for a lot of money, here you get the complete opposite . Stunning food , tasty and fresh for a reasonable price especially like us you go at lunch time . . Under £14 for a two course meal or £35 for a feast for 2 . We nearly didn’t go in, as it looked abit shabby from the outside, thought it was closed down but saw a light on that led to a warm welcome , glowing real fire and excellent food and service .

Another wonderful authentic Thai meal at this cosy pub / restaurant. Delicious tempura prawns and salt and pepper squid to begin, served with dips and salad garnish. Then on to tasty stir fries with coconut rice. Usually go for massaman or panang but loved this crisp freshly cooked stir fry for a change. Incredibly well priced , staff are lovely, family owned and there is a genuine warm welcome. Timothy Taylor real ale, excellent wine selection and the best log fire you will find anywhere . Can’t rate it highly enough.

My daughter and family live in Bristol and my wife and I in Cockfosters. We wanted to meet roughly half way and my son researched the web and suggested we try the White Horse. We are so glad that we did as we enjoyed one of the tastiest, most satisfying, meals eaten anywhere, with quite deliciously authentic Thai flavour and presentation (the impressive art of carving carrots into the shape of roses!). The owner, his family, and staff could not have been more welcoming and helpful. Wholeheartedly recommended.

Aaaah where to begin? This place rocks! From the friendly, super speedy staff to the incredible plethora of flavour from their Thai menu, the White Horse now has a special place in my heart. I ordered the prawn Pengnan accompanied with coconut rice which was perfectly spiced and instantly transported my to rural Thailand. I would recommend whole heartedly to all my friends, family and companions! It’s fair to say that Oxfordshire is a better place with The White Horse in it. A massive shout out to all of their staff who made tonight a night to remember…

We have visited this pub/restaurant on many occasions, and had takeaways during lockdown, and without fail have always enjoyed a delicious Thai meal. We opted for pancake rolls for a starter which were very enjoyable, followed by Phad Prig Chicken. This was absolutely delicious as the food always is here. Quite a cosy, intimate restaurant with about 10 tables, very friendly staff

I have reviewed this restaurant several times before and always given it 5 stars for the wonderful Thai food and great service. On this occasion the food was as good as always, Duck Rolls with a sweet dip and a Chicken Massaman curry for my main. However the service was extremely poor. No problem with the starter, it was the main where the trouble started. I overheard the waitress deliver the food to the next table and thought it was a coincidence they ordered the same as us. We waited and waited and after asking where our meal was the owner explained it had been delivered to the next table. We were given hot plates which got cold and still no food, more hot plates and still no food, as the third hot plates arrived, one of the dishes arrived. I spotted my meal on the bar where the waitress had placed it while she answered the phone, so eventually got up and got it myself. The owner offered us a free drink but it was a very disappointing evening, the worst service I can remember. Nobody asked us if everything was alright with the meal, and nobody said goodbye when we left. I don't know if the staff were new, maybe it was just a bad night.

Very friendly atmosphere, very nice vibe. We used to live in SE Asia and so we are quite finicky about Thai food. We had the Tom Yum soup, could have been more spicy but we forgot to ask for more spice! It was delicious anyway the prawns were plump and fresh. Then I had the chef special seafood, generous portions , Full to the brim with seafood with a delicious sauce. My husband had a very tender (extra spice added) duck curry. Then as a added bonus the chef brought out his own chicken curry which is to die for , fragrant with spices and fresh flavour , and even though we were so full , we ate it!

We went to the White Horse for a Thai meal . The food was between average and good , the drinks reasonable and the overall value for money adequate . Service too was friendly . The restaurant area had a pleasant atmosphere although there was a nasty draught on the table we were allocated ( they moved us ). When the manager came and made a fuss of us the service element suddenly went much higher ! Mixed starters - OK but not outstanding . The duck spring rolls nice but not excellent value . The main Penang curry was the best main dish alongside the vegetable pad thai .

We took the set menu for £15. Including the shared starter platter and 3 mains to share plus rice. All that for £15, this is a bargain considering the quality of the food. Really top Thai food. To my taste it could be much spicier, but it is very tasty. Couple of recommendations though:- book a table, as the place is very small.- today it is 2C and snowy outside. They have difficulties to keep up with warmth inside this old pub. Take a jumper...

Small Thai restaurant in old village pub with exposed beams.There are a few tables outside at the front of the pub, but we chose to sit in the small patio area round the side of the restaurant, where there are a few tables also, as it is hidden from the road.We ate at lunchtime so chose from the 2 course set menu. There are 7 starter options, and 16 mains priced at £7.50 or £9.50 for 2 courses.For starters I chose chicken wings which were delicious with a small salad and a sweet chilli dip. I would recommend their Won Ton soup, and have chosen on previous visits to warm me up during the winter months.I have not eaten duck here before, so chose Crispy Duck with Tamarind Sauce which was accompanied by a small salad and rice. Huge amount of duck, and it was delicious, I haven't eaten better Thai food.Staff always cheerful, and service was prompt.

An old English pub that serves authentic Thai food. My brother, who's reached the end of his annual Blighty vacation, fancied a Thai to kick off his taste buds before his flight home to Bangkok tomorrow. We googled and found the White Horse. No rhyme or reason why we chose it. Really glad we did. Left the ordering to brother; which he did impressively in Thai. The result was a selection of really tasty and fragrant dishes that were remarkably like the food that he gets at home. He was happy, it hit the spot and we've made a new discovery.

Not a good place for Real Ale lovers.Excelente cocina Thailandesa a un precio muy razonable, y a solo 10 minutos de Oxford (no muy accesible si no tienes coche).

The mixed starter was super and the Thai man did super service though there was a young girl who needs more training- she brought the wrong food, didn't know what she was delivering when she brought the right food and tried to clear too early. This didn't interfere with our lovely meal though. Well done all.

Sunday night and busy as always. A famous West Indian cricketer (GG) was in with family and friends and the atmosphere was very good for a Sunday evening. Service and food excellent as usual.Thai Curry and weeping Tiger (strips of steak on a skillet) were very good. They also usually have a t least two real ales on draft which is always a plus point.What I love is if you are in a rush they speed things up and if you have time and tell them so things go at your own pace. We have been here many times and as a local restaurant you cannot beat it.Keep up the good work and we will keep returning.

This place is always good. The take-aways are good too. We popped in here last night for a meal and were not disappointed. Er indoors had green curry (chicken) and I had the chicken pad Thai. We shared a mixed starter for two. I had a half of Bitter and her highness had a large lime & soda. All of it was good as was the service. The bill came to a few pence over £30. If I had to be very picky I would say that the green curry was slightly thin (watery) and the cabbage in the pad Thai was past its prime. These minor things were not enough to affect our enjoyment of the meal and all of the other diners seemed to be enjoying their meals too. It's advisable to book a table most times. I. use phone or email for this and takeaway.

The duck curry is absolutely delicious. Pad Thai is really good, especially with prawns. The service is good and friendly - Good wine and beer choice.

I'm not sure whether we just went on the wrong day because the other reviews for this restaurant don't seem to have had the same problem as us - but we had absolutely appalling service at this restaurant. The staff were polite and friendly, but very very slow. It took half an hour for them to take our drinks/starters order, and after finishing our starters, another hour until we received our main. It was only when I went up and asked whether they had started cooking it yet because we had to leave, that they hurried up and said it wouldn't be a moment. I was very very disappointed by the service but nonetheless, the food was INCREDIBLE. Best Thai food I have ever tasted by far, and if this was just a glitchy day with service I would return in an instant.

I lunch here one a month and the standard of food never varies, it is always excellent. I normally start with chicken satay, followed by green thai chicken curry or sweet & sour prawns, both are very good. The set two course lunch is outstanding value at £7.50 per person

The White Horse is small and we didn't know when we went in it was a Thai restaurant, we had a drink first and then tried the food as a second thought - so glad we did. Went for the 2 course £7.50 special which was worth every penny. Lovely fresh crispy veggie spring rolls then we shared a veggie green curry and the veggie Pad Thai - both were excellent, flavoursome and served in an appealing fashion. Green curry was packed with flavour, good mix of vegetables and tofu, I would recommend for couples or small parties - staff were courteous and helpful. Nice wine and beer selection on top.

Never had a bad meal, charming young waiter who nothing is to much trouble for, we eat here regularly and have watched this young man grow in confidence. We recommend this restaurant to all our friends and we will certainly carry on eating here!

Have been up to Forrest Hill and the White Horse a few times this year already, nice cosy fire and good service, but we are only here for the tasty thai food, see the menu on the web site, good selection and good prices. I can see we will be back again soon.

Revisiting after a few years & a bit disappointing. No prawn crackers, unchilled white wine & our meal got off to a very bad start by the defensive rude manager. What a shame as we were looking forward to our meal out! Green curry rather bland. Food okay but after the abuse we received we will not return.

Don't go by the trip advisor map, why they don't check these things I don't know, Forrest Hill is just north of the A40 just east of Oxford, see Google.As title, great Thai food (some european dishes as well) cosy, warm pub, good beer, service and great Thai food. Easy to find as well.

I really recommend this pub/restaurant! Why?Firstly, it has a really warm cozy old atmosphere of a country pubIt is clearly loved by the locals with kind staff.The food is delicious! My brother and I had Tom yum soup and Thai green curry. He said it was very good, and he knows, having spent time in Thai land!The food was really good value. Really refreshing to have tasty, honest food at affordable prices. No over-fancy gastro, retro pub here!Lastly, this is for you, Oxford locals: We walked to the pub in Forest Hill, through Shotover Park and Shotover estate. A lovely 2 hour max walk! Then you get the reward of this scrumptious Thai lunch on arrival. You can then get the 108 bus back to town.
