White Horse in Gloucester

Wow wow wow. Popped in for a drink and couldn’t resist the food. Outstanding food, good value and dog friendly. Can’t wait to return.

Ate here whilst on holiday in the area, an absolute hidden gem. The pork croquettes followed by the toad in the hole was perfect after a walk around Symonds Yat.

From the moment we walked through the front door we were made to feel welcome. The dining room is warm and cozy, the decor eclectic. With a choice of two menus, the bar or specials there was plenty of choice. The bar menu giving you the option to reduce your per head spend. We all opted for dishes from the specials menu!! We are a family that loves our food. Every dish was beautifully presented, well proportioned and delicious. I can whole heartedly recommend the goats cheese and pesto beignets to start and if you have a big appetite the ribeye surf and turf. There was a great choice of gluten free or gluten free adaptable options and with no gluten contamination in the fryers we could all share the fries. We only managed one dessert between six of us and were delighted with the lemon sorbet presented inside a frozen lemon. The staff were all knowledgeable and willing to help with menu suggestions, and adjustments to suit dietary requirements. Nothing was too much trouble. If you are not in the area it is worth going out of your way to enjoy dinner.

Best Sunday roast we have ever had and the benchmark is pretty high… delicious Bakewell tart for pudding. Great atmosphere and service. Highly recommended!

Found this little pub whilst we were away for the weekend , a shame as there were not many people in on a Saturday evening we were a party of 10 and I’ve got to say the food was amazing !! And the staff were friendly

We had a lovely relaxed family meal (dog included) whilst staying in the area. My son is vegetarian and has coeliac disease so we often struggle to find places that can cater for him, the staff here went out of their way to make sure he was happy and had a good meal. The food was delicious and enjoyed by all. Thank you!

Wonderful little pub, best pie I've ever had! Very dog friendly

went here with a big group of us and every meal was amazing.

An amazing find in the Forest of Dean. Hayley and the team couldn't have been better. Gourmet food cooked to perfection.

Very friendly pub, and the food was exceptionally good.

Came here for a Sunday dinner after walking in the Forest of Dean. I decided to go for the toad in the hole and my partner made a rogue decision of going for the monkfish curry. The food was beautiful, and we couldn’t fault it at all. The pricing was also reasonably given the location! Now service was particularly good, but is there such a thing as too fast service perhaps? Within seconds of being seated drinks orders were taken. Then when the drinks came our food order was taken. Our food then arrived within 10 minutes or so. All in all we were out within 45 minutes. We perhaps just felt a little rushed, but no real faults.

Stopped off here in passing on a rainy day. We had a warm welcome from the lady running the bar and restaurant and a nice conversation with some locals giving us advice on sightseeing. We ordered the steak pie (comes with a pint) and swapped potatoes for chips. The food was fresh with amazing chips and the pie was really lovely. One of the best meals we'd had on the holiday and for £13 was an absolute bargain, great value. Highly recommend and would return if we're back in Llandeilo again.

Perfect food and atmosphere!!!highly recommended

Found this place on a day trip to Wales, as soon as we walked through the door the landlady was very welcoming, greeting us and showing us to our table. Food was delicious 😋 and the waitress went above and beyond, well done all and thankyou

We had a fantastic Sunday lunch. Particularly loved the rich gravy and roasties. There was good choice on the menu and we had great service. Plan to bring the family back to enjoy this gem of a place.

Always love the food. Diligent with food allergy and offer alternatives. The quality of food, presentation and taste is exceptional. Brilliant place to eat, staff superb and dining experience. Must visit for locals and visitors booking advised. Thanks to all for lovely evening and top food!

Lovely people and lovely food, would highly recommend.

Lovely pub with great food and very warm and welcoming.

Fantastic food, friendly and welcoming staff. Would definitely return again.

Sunday roast was perfect, very impressed with the chef. Service very attentive and quick. Definitely recommended.

Hi, we came here for lunch today for (I think for the fifth time - we are fairly local to the area). Initially I was disappointed to see that the previous amazing things like beef ribs were off the menu and that it was a standard bar lunch menu. I completely understand that it is not viable to have your previous lunch menu options these days. But both the steak and ale pie and beef lasagne were absolutely delicious! The pie gravy was exceptional (your chef knows their way around cows - very reminiscent of the gravy with the lovely beef ribs). Excellent, efficient and friendly service too. And I always love your dogs. If anyone is looking for an excellent, tasty lunch, with a warm welcome, this is definitely recommended.

Family of four. We popped in on the way home from FOD on the off chance we could be seated and eat. Staff were very accommodating and found us a table. 4 roast beer dinners that were exceptionally good. The cask ales were also top notch. Staff were especially welcoming and friendly. This is a pub we visited on the off chance but will definitely be coming back and bringing friends. Diolch

Food was amazing lovely friendly staff nice cosy pub

Excellent food and very friendly accommodating service. The cheese board was amazing!

Love this place. The food is knockout, and always on point! Have been coming here for years and can honestly say best pub food I've ever had.

A group of us 10+ stopped for drinks and coffees here last week late morning, we had a warm welcome, quick service and sat on the decking area, lovely relaxing pub with excellent coffees and a decent low 0% alcohol draught beer on tap which my CAMRA member friend was most impressed by. We didn't stop for lunch, but the food looked tasty.

Lovely Pub, stopped here as a group of 7 of us after cycling for the day around the the local area. We hadn't booked ahead as it was a last minute stop but the staff were very welcoming/accommodating for us all, really great food and a lovely garden area/decking area to enjoy a larger in the sun. Will definitely stop back when in the area again. Thanks

Food is amazing, been eating here for the last 5 years since living locally and never disappointed. Staff are friendly and attentive and the atmosphere is warm and relaxed. Highly recommend.

First Take Away Sunday Roast -lovely

Traditional country pub with a warm welcome. I'm a vegetarian so I chose the Celeriac Steak with truffle mash which was delicious!

Very nice meal , good service and a nice pint Thanks

Had lunch there today ...excellent food and service

We ate Sunday lunch here two days ago, absolutely wonderful, we will definitely be eating here again on our next visit, Hayley could not have been more helpful.

My friend, my dog and I had such a fantastic night here last night. The food was excellent, I had the bacon steak and it was delicious, my mate had toad in the hole which she said was great. Fantastic service and my dog had the best night of his life, rolling around with the owners dog. She had such a clear love and understanding of dogs, we were able to really chill knowing the dog was safely running around in the secure garden with his brand new bestie, Monty. Thanks for such a great evening 😊

Great lambs liver and mash. Dogs under the table. Friendly helpful staff.

14 of us Had Easter Sunday lunch here, it was one of the best if not the best roast Dinners we've had out at a restaurant/pub. All the food came out together nice and hot and the roast potatoes were crispy ( rare find) kids portions we very well priced and sized. I would highly recommend

Great venue for good quality food freshly prepared . Owners and staff very helpful and welcoming. We will definitely be returning

We ate here on the evening of the 23rd March. We both ordered the lamb rump with dauphinoise potatoes and roasted vegetables, which was extremely well cooked and seasoned. Compliments to the chef. I had the chocolate brownie and my husband had the mini pavlova for dessert, both were lovely. The team was polite and efficient. Would definitely recommend 👍

Vest meal we have eaten out in a long time. staff are lovely and welcoming. The food was amazing so much so we went for dinner one night and returned for lunch the next day

After a long dog walk we were hoping for somewhere to welcome us and two scruffy dogs. We could not of felt more welcome. The dogs were given treats and given lots of attention. The drinks food service all wonderful. I used to visit the pub with family over 45 years ago. So wonderful to see it still going and beautifully restored and very well presented. Beautiful pub and will be going back for meal sooner than 45 years this time.

This was my mother's favourite restaurant and we went often. Sadly she's no longer with me but I like to think of her here, enjoying great food and being fussed over by the lovely staff who treated her like a friend. This is the best Chinese food I've ever had.

Lovely dog friendly place. Food was superb. Excellent hosting staff made us all feel welcomed. Highly recommended for those who want good food next to a warm fire place.

Had a lovely Sunday roast there, not cheap but very nice

Popped in as part of our holiday to forest of dean. It was an absolute gen if a find. Fantastic food sourced from local area and businesses lovely atmosphere and friendly dog. If in the area would recommend to visit.

Another fantastic meal at the White Horse Inn. Haley and the team do absolutely brilliant. We have been to this place on many occasions for special anniversaries birthdays and some times just to have a superb meal. Faultless every single time. We've never heard anyone have a bad meal here. Amazing

First time going here. I was dubious when I arrived as in the dark it appears to be in the middle of nowhere, but received a friendly welcome. Staff were welcoming and so helpful and the food was amazing. Definitely returning soon and will encourage others. The food itself was flavoursome, not greasy and plentiful in it's quantity.

The food was delicious, plenty of choice & served really quick considering they were very busy. Friendly staff & nice atmosphere. Definitely worth a revisit.

Fabulous Fish and Chips best I've had in years. I don't know how much was spent It was a treat. So when I put £100 it was worth it.

Recently moved to the forest, the White Horse recommended by new hairdresser. What a recommendation it was. Ambience of a true Forest pub/restaurant. Lovely people, staff excellent, lovely resident dogs and the food was amazing. Not had lambs liver for some time and it did not disappoint. Wish we could have stayed for sweet but Rugby WC final calling. Will be back very soon.

Lovely food, I would really recommend coming here but make sure you book in advance as it can be very busy! We were massively under charged on our bill which we brought to their attention. Guinea Fowl was a winner!

Lovely Pub with delicious food our Airbnb Host at The House of Bread recommended this place. It was great food and great service !! Thanks 😊

I've not had such tasty food in decades.... Thank you x

We had an amazing dinner on Sunday evening. Had the best roast lamb I've ever had, was unbelievable. The service was brilliant and all staff were really friendly. Would recommend this pub to anyone.

What a lovely pub - we shared starters and they looked and tasted amazing! The staff are super friendly and helpful. Great garden out back and the pub inside had a quirky feel. 100% recommended 👌

Awesome pub, really quirky and staff were so helpful and friendly. Our dog felt right at home. Food was incredible and the overall pub was fantastic indoors and out

Eat here twice this week and so pleased we did superb food. Very friendly service and good beer what more could I ask for. Highly recommended

Lovely little pub. All local ingredients. Pet friendly. Food was great. Boar burgers were epic! Good local ale. Lovely hosts. Brilliant!

Fantastic food and our dog Merlin loved meeting his fox red lab doppleganger Monty. Thank you 😀

Had a short break in the Forest of Dean and was recommended to go to this Inn to eat. Absolutely fantastic food and service. It was so good, we ate there twice on one day. And they are very dog friendly so our dogs were able to roam in their enclosed garden and play with their dogs. I really wish that this was my local!

Lovely food, really welcoming and accommodated us last minute with a small person. The resident dog (an old slow Labrador) was loitering - not menacing at all but if you have allergies or any thoughts on hygiene for a restaurant probably not ideal.

Delicious Sunday lunch for a party of eight.

Friendly staff. The food is lovely and nothing is too much trouble. Would highly recommend

Hidden gem for great pub grub. Lovely garden for sunny days and dog friendly.

We stopped off at the White Horse Inn as we were passing through, so didn't have a reservation. On arrival, we were very happy to be allocated a table, as it looked very busy inside (even at 6pm). We treated ourselves to three courses each, and with every dish that came out, we mmmm'd and ooooh'd throughout as each mouthful was just divine. The Mackerel starter and Lamp Rump mains were stand-out dishes, both flavourful and comparable to much more expensive restaurants we have dined at. The chefs here are truly talented. The waiting staff were all friendly and efficient too, and it was very evident that everyone here works so, so hard. We will definitely be returning when next in the area. One of the best spots for a lunch or dinner for miles around.

As always the meals were perfect, our groups ages ranged from 12 years to 74 years and there was something for everyone, we were well looked after by the staff and nothing was too much trouble, I have eaten here and used the takeaway service on numerous occasions and have never found fault with any of it. Exceptionally highly rated.

Fantastic pub. Beautiful food and very welcoming staff. I would recommend it to anyone. Probably the best food in the Forest of Dean.

Absolutely stunning food and incredibly friendly and efficient service. Would highly recommend! Best meal I’ve had out in a long time!!

Lovely little country pub..amazing food from the starter to the main. All food ingredients are source locally which is reflected in the price you pay for.. the food presentation is five-star restaurant quality. The staff are friendly. It is also dog friendly, so you can bring your doggy along or the option of meeting the lovely doggy, who come say hello. High recommended the white horse 8nn

Lovely food and good service. Really enjoyed our visit. Great if next time you can flex to making a coffee liquer when asked by guests rather than being so rigid to menu but thought food and wine were great. Will be back.

The waiter's are super nice tortias are lovely

The people who run this pub know exactly what they need to do to make it special. The food is always excellent and we have never been disappointed! We will always visit when we are in the area. Really can't fault it 👍

Food was SO good and staff really friendly

Absolutely delicious Sunday lunch. Friendly professional staff. I can highly recommend and I will definitely return again.

Nice place. Was just passing through so didn't eat but food looked good. Will visit again sometime though.

Excellent service and excellent quality food provided by really professional chef. 3rd time visit and always will return when down in the Forest of Dene.

Very nice pub. Good food and helpful staff

Very warm welcome, staff attentive, great food.

Had yet another lovely evening and the meal last-night, always a fun relaxed evening with great food. Thank you all.

Has to be the best Sunday lunch I have had in a long time. The food was amazing. The decor is lovely, feels very homely. The service was fantastic. Cant fault the food or service one bit. The only thing that was annoying was that the carpark had cars parked in it of people that were not even visiting the pub, they were going off cycling/walking. So people visiting had to find elsewhere to park on residential streets.

Great little place with a beautiful garden

Amazing food and lovely hosts, beer garden for the dog too :)

Lovely pub, fantastic food and very friendly staff. Honeycomb cheesecake was to die for

Very good food. Friendly service. Bar/restaurant divided with a dog friendly area😃warm welcome 🙏

Lovely pub , dog friendly with great staff, but on a Sunday, all of the tables were occupied for lunches

Eight of us celebrated our grandsons birthday here this evening. Staff were very friendly and helpful. The food is very tasty and freshly cooked, if you wanted more you only had to ask. They catered for the children's wants. It may not be the most swish place but oddly enough we went for the food. You would not be disappointed.

Ohhhh such a nice pub and the foood. Yum, yum. Will absolutely go back if in the area. In fact, wouldn't go anywhere else. Yes the food was that good. Book the table by the fireplace

Great service, excellent food. Lots of drink choice.

Every year we make a visit to the annual coleford classic car show And every year we call in here for dinner and every year it gets better!! Superb food and welcome so much so we have decided to go back just for the food:-)

Great food and good selection of drinks

Came here for Sunday roast, and were blown away by the quality of the food. Everything was perfectly cooked and balanced, and just have to mention probably the best cauliflower cheese we have ever had. Friendly service from the team as well

This is our second visit to White Horse and we were amazed about the look and taste of the food served, they’ve managed to outbest themselves and our second visit was even tastier than the first one. Totally recommend, we’ve tried only Sunday Roasts and Desserts, but it feels like anything they do, it’s going to amaze you!

Very nice welcoming pub, lovely food and drinks along with being dog friendly makes this a must stop on a hike

Just been for lunch for the first time. Really delicious food. Generous portions and all food was fresh, hot (temperature), and very tasty! Excellent service also. Looking forward to going back!

Good soup and bread before a long walk, great find! Very helpful and kind staff.

We only popped in for a drink but we will definitely return to eat here too next time we are in the area. The staff were lovely and very accommodating with our awkward greyhound. The food delivered to other tables looked delicious! The whole place had a really nice vibe about it.

Staff where so lovely, friendly and helpful food was amazing so tasty and hot and fresh was my sister birthday and they brought her out a muffin with a candle and sung happy birthday would definitely come again and recommend all empty plates and bowls

The staff are very friendly and helpful. The food was outstanding, very tasty and fresh. Portions were just the right size meaning you can have several dishes of your choice. I would recommend this restaurant if you enjoy buffet type meals.

Great food, lovely ambience and excellent beers.

Lovely pub with a lovely atmosphere very friendly Dog friendly

Great food and service. To drawer
