Ate a Sunday lunch here. 5 adults, a 4 year old and a 2 year old and a dog. The staff could not have been more obliging and the food was superb. The roast beef dinner was a delight to look at let alone eat. I had a rump steak with excellent chips, peas and onion rings all for£10. It was cooked to perfection. In all for the seven of us with drinks and desserts, the bill came to £105. Superb value.

Friendly and efficient Lady served us. Menu is very extensive, food was cooked well. Would go again if in the area. Dining room could do with being a bit more welcoming.

Had a very good pub meal last night at a very good price. Nothing sophisticated or pretentious but quite a few items were homemade and the chips were proper ones. The room is un made over/ bit of a hotch potch but they are sensible not wasting money on elaborate renovations. The service was good and friendly.

We had driven past this pub so many times, so on a busy bank holiday when every where was full it was lovely to find this traditional country pub with all the favourites on its very reasonably priced menu . The food was very quickly served, hot, fresh and very tasty, with so much of a helping it totally ruled out dessert. We sat under the shade of a parasol in the beer garden, which even though there was traffic going past the other side of the wall, it still felt still and relaxed. Pros : sensible prices, great fresh food, lovely traditional pub setting.Very polite and helpful staff, quick service, they take cards, they allow pets and have plenty of parking. Cons : none that I can think of.

Tried to find somewhere that served Sunday roast and after a few false stops we came across the White Horse in Llanfair DCThe food was amazing and service was fantastic! We had the Sunday roast which was a choice of gammon or beef at £9.95 - the portions were really great and the desserts at £3.95 each were even better!!Dog friendly as well which was a huge bonus!Well worth a visit!!

We live about six miles from Llanfair Dyffryn Clwyd, so 'Y Ceffyl Gwyn' (the 'White Horse' to you folk from further east!) is just a bit too far away to count as a 'local' for us. So we hadn't thus far given it a try; but, having heard good reports of it as a friendly pub with nice food, we drove out there to taste their pub grub.And we definitely weren't disappointed. 'The management' gave us a warm welcome, the bar was full of cheerful conversations in both languages, we were given the choice of eating in the quieter dining room or at tables at the top end of the bar, and we were provided with a large and varied menu. What's not to like?You get a lot of choice; not because they offer a vast selection of dishes, but rather because, for main course, there's both a 'posher choice' menu and an 'economy' one. And both provide a generous range of options.So we ordered first course (a delicious leek soup for me and a succulently large prawn cocktail for herself) and then decided to try out the 'economy' menu because all the main courses on it were under £8 - not often you find that these days! At that price I wondered what we'd get in terms of size and quality, but we weren't at all disappointed: our meals were plain and straightforward, for sure, but at the price you'd expect nothing else!. I had the belly pork and my other half opted for a curry. My belly pork was simply served with mashed spuds, peas and gravy, but the portions - the chunk of pork included - were huge. The curry was no less generous in quantity. And at the end I was presented with a bill of a mere £28:55, which included our drinks and our first course (we'd no room in the tum for a sweet!). I was paying more than that for a pub meal of similar size and quality fifteen years ago! But had I wanted a more elaborate rendering of my belly pork, I could have forked out rather more and chosen it from the 'posher choice' menu with a wider range of vegetables. In this pub you can pay your money and take your choice!Our first visit, but it definitely won't be our last!

My friend and I had been recommended to go to The White Horse on the Wrexham Road out of Ruthin. I asked 'Mr Google' for information and the photos that came up were dull and the food looked very basic. We persevered and were hugely surprised by the lovely interior with leather sofas in both the bar and the restaurant, the very friendly staff and local clientele from the village, the varied and interesting menu and the hidden size of the restaurant which can host quite large groups but is also cosy and attractive. The food was very tasty and the presentation good. We will definitely recommend this pub to our friends in Ruthin. I had always wondered about the parking which is limited outside the pub, however there is actually ample parking because it is possible to park in the village hall and church car park before you reach the pub. The stroll through the lovely churchyard with it's historically old and large trunked trees is delightful.

On our first night of glamping nearby we went in search of dinner and stumbled on this hidden gem. Simple menu but really well executed there were no empty plates and the atmosphere was incredibly welcoming and friendly. Highly recommend if you have hungry teens and tweens to feed! We will definitely be back!

Three of us dined here on Saturday evening, the menu choice is extensive for a small establishment and there were specials available. Excellent meals, we all thoroughly enjoyed our food, the atmosphere is very pleasant and everyone, staff and patrons were very welcoming and friendly. To top everything off the final bill was a very nice surprise - extremely reasonable. Will definitely use this as our preferred dining choice in future.

La mayoría de los pubs de Gales puede ser un poco descuidado y poco atractiva, pero no ésta. Personal amable y un gran menú. Hay una zona de restaurante como en el bar y asientos en el exterior. Nos sentamos al lado de una bonita iglesia. Amplio menú de pub a precios razonables. Tuve la hamburguesa de cordero y la casa más celestiales patatas cocinadas. Las gambas y patatas fritas fue una excelente parte. Muy recomendable y vale la pena un desvío

Recientemente fuimos allí para una comida el viernes por la noche. A nuestra llegada nos mostraron directamente en el restaurante, ya que el bar era claramente para los locales. El restaurante era muy agradable, pero solo estábamos en grupo, lo cual fue inesperado para un viernes por la noche. Estaba bastante fría, pero elegimos una mesa cerca de un radiador.

Nice locals country pub, good food, good range of beers, always welcoming and when theres nothing on the box, a game of pool or darts, can be tricky to get out of the parking due to the nature of the road, but doesn't detract from...

We have visited this lovely place on numerous Sunday's now , the food is every time at it's best. A very cosy and homely feel to the place.We usually opt for the three course Sunday Lunch as its well worth the money and is not expensive. Staff are always very welcoming. Have not got round to go there to have an evening meal as of yet , but will sure make time for it in the near future.

We called here on a friday night and were greeted by friendly staff and seated in the restaurant straight away. We were really impressed with the menu and the specials board but even more impressed when the food arrived. Good sized portions, well cooked food, a step up from regular pub food but at a good price. We will be returning!!

Fabulous location in a small village with outstanding views of the Clwydian range. A nice warm fire in the bar, friend genuine staff who wanted to welcome you in. The decor and atmosphere is second to none in the area. All this and then fantastic locally sourced food that was tasty and really well presented. The wine list is small but well balanced, and although a bit of a drive over into the Vale of Clwyd, it was well worth the trip. Will definitely be going back and would recommend to anyone.

This is one busy pub/restaurant. It seems as if is located out in the middle of nowhere but it was packed! We were shortly seated with our drinks we ordered from the bar. We placed our meal order, I had a nice lamb dish! It was freshly made and perfectly cook for me! I will say I thought the wait was a bit long before we got our food!

Tripadvisor are very confused. There are a number of serious mistakes on restaurants in Ruthin. For a start, both the Ruthin Castle and the Castle Hotel are in Ruthin and not in Llanfair DC.The White Horse pub is the only eating place in the village of Llanfair DC.

Recommended as just reopened, we had been to the White Lion many years ago. Ate with two other whose food was okay, my food was dreadful, I had sea-bass which was overlooked, dry and the whole meal was barely warm. I should have sent it back but we had waited so long to get our food, it would then have held up everyone! Never again. The whole meal cost over £40 for three people. Never again!

We visited this pub on the spur of the moment for a meal out and were pleasantly surprised. We live local and never really consider the White Horse as a restaurant but were glad we took the chance. The is quite good with something to please most people and there were specials on offer too. The food was excellent with quite large portions and reasonably priced.We will definitely go again!

We visited this pub/restaurant just to see what is was like after recent refurbishment... and it was excellent! The menu is varied and of very good quality.. we revisited and were equally happy second time around. It has a lovely decor and friendly ambience, with very friendly, helpful and efficient staff. And, of course, its location is beautiful. We will be back!

This place has had a face lift and good effort but it lacks a buz. The lad behind bar who rolled a fag behind the bar when we were there and sat on the couch and when we asked for a drink it was if we asked for him to come in on his day off ! It /he had no spark and that's what the place lacks ! Food was plentiful and ok steak had a strange taste to it but other dishes were acceptable. Just had no music no buzz and no personality in the staff!

This is a gem of a pub and restaurant just 2 miles outside of Ruthin on the Wrexham Road (A525). We had a wonderful meal here. The decor and food are superb. Because they were not very busy, we had the full attention of Max and learned a lot about the area. We would definitely come back.
