White Horse Inn in Chichester

Have been going in here for a few years, great atmosphere, Thai night is great, open fire so always nice with dog.

Staff friendly, music in the large garden, nice environment, lovely Sunday roast, very dog friendly,

Lovely pub with great food. We popped in for a meal after driving from Cornwall. Stayed at a local BnB.

This is a marvellous place, with a great ambience. We had first visited the inn in July and when we were in the area again last week, we could not wait to go back again! It is a genuine English pub with a local clientele who clearly are regulars who go to enjoy a drink and a natter with their friends and the staff. The really lovely thing about the place was that they welcomed us and drew us into their conversations, so that we did not feel strangers or unwelcome. And then there is the food..... Steph, the landlady and chef is a wonderful cook! The menu was varied and the food was excellent, the service was good and all the staff are really friendly. Definitely a place to visit again and again... Thanks are due to all, staff and locals for making us so welcome.

This is an absolutely wonderful local pub, which serves an eclectic community and is well known for good, homemade food and well-kept beers/drinks. I am not one to leave reviews, certainly not for poor service as I find that faceless and distasteful. If there is an issue it should be resolved personally as it's the only way to make improvements and move forward but I feel very angry about "diet-coke"-gate!! I was also very kindly invited to this wedding and found the buffet to be top-notch and well-above par compared to if one was to order similar from a high-end supermarket. It was spot-on for this informal celebration and quite delicious. My husband did ask for a cup of tea for me later in the afternoon, which they very kindly provided when they were less busy. I really hope the Bride and Groom drop this person from their Christmas card list, at the very least! On a positive note though - the pub will not miss the return of this particular person, nor that one wanting as "Gastro-pub" - what a plum !!!

Thanks for a wonderful day really enjoyed our experience the buffet was excellent plenty of choice would definitely recommend my friends and family

This is a traditional English pub, which is rarer than rocking horse droppings these days. We were there for a wedding reception. The staff were friendly and efficient, the food was varied, very fresh and beautifully presented, the beer was flawlessly kept. The interior decor was typical proper pub decor, the toilets were spotlessly clean and the outside space was just the right blend of open space with a good choice of light and shade from the sun. In all this was well placed in a peaceful village centre. In all a delightful venue and a very pleasant change from the plastic country pubs one tends to find these days. In all full marks all round for a great pub for which the management should be rightly proud.

If you are looking for a nice friendly locals village pub - with a great food menu, excellent selection of local beers, with friendly attentive service and good value, then you can’t go wrong with the White Horse Inn. The Pub is set in the sweet village of Westbourne in the South Downs, very welcoming, with a nice size garden at the back too. Parking is a little tricky but thats village life and if you park down by the church you shouldn’t have a problem. The previous low rating review was, to say the least, harsh and unfair towards this pleasant friendly country Pub, and the staff team worked very hard on the day referred to in the review - and in my opinion, such review was rather rude towards the lovely couple who held their very personal happy informal wedding event.

A lovely local atmosphere to the pub. Lovely staff members, Ewan serviced us, he was very friendly & professional. Nice food and dogs friendly. Would recommend.

Just had the most amazing Sunday roast at the White Horse. Roast Lamb was fantastic! Home made food, big portions, plenty of fresh veg and a huge home made Yorkshire pudding. Desserts wonderful too. Lovely, friendly young man serving behind the bar, called Ewan, he was so cheerful and very chatty. Would recommend this pub! Can’t wait to return.

Tasty home cooked food by Steph the landlady 😊 or Thai food on Wednesday by a guest chef 😎 also quiz night at the end of the month 🤞😊

Went for drinks with my parents and son. What a lovely welcome we had. Euan the barman was lovely. Thanks, guys. Will definitely be back 🙌🏼

Thai night on Wednesdays, 3rd time here excellent

Lovely pub great traditional food good service food fairly priced what a pub should be staff make you welcome ,dogs welcome as well. good walks around area

Good locals pub in the heart of Westbourne. The food was of a good quality and the portions fairly generous. The service was friendly.

Nice place expensive wine which wasn't very nice.

Perfect venue for a wake. Great food and value.

Came here for the first time only because the Woodmancote car park was full! Our meal was nicely presented, very hot and great value too. Give them a try!

Always great in this traditional pub

Had a very hearty Sunday Roast with Yorkshire pudding, roasted potatoes and a side of cooked veg. Absolutely zero room left for dessert. The owner was very accommodating to us with our toddler. Visited the area with extended family.

Serves great beer and friendly staff 👍

Lovely village pub with a great community atmosphere 😀

We had pretty awful sandwiches which were at the top end of prices for sandwiches in a pub. Cheap sliced bread. Side of chips were the cheapest type of frozen chips I’ve ever had in a pub and the ketchup on the side was glutinous. We will not eat there again.

A real village hub with great food, great beer and lovely staff! always dog freindly. A must visit in Westbourne!

Great beer (HSB & London Pride were sampled), good atmosphere

Good village pub. Open mic' night on Monday. Fun evening with friendly people.

Helpful staff in arranging a fun skittles event. Good tasty food too!

Visited on a Wednesday for the monthly quiz night. Great, friendly atmosphere and a lot of fun.

Really lovely food with a nice friendly atmosphere. Traditional English pub that’s dog friendly. Good selection of Alcohol and good facilities.

Visited on a Wednesday and sampled the Thai food and it was delicious and very reasonable.

Enjoyed my first visit before a curry locally. Nice beers and warm welcoming pub

Great service as always, very welcoming 🥰

Lovely village pub with a much improved garden.

The service was ok, a little insecure, the food did not taste of much but was ok. We had the best lemon dessert after and I must go home and try it my self! The cook was friendly and nice. The only thing that troubled me was that everything was so shabby and dirty so I was almost on my way out in the beginning. The table had old food on it, the spoons were dirty and we could see rest of sauce and fingerprints on the salt and pepper! But otherwise it was fine.

This is a locals pub with very friendly, helpful service accommodated 10 of us on a Saturday evening without any problem. Good food, reasonable prices and a great feel to the pub made it a winner.

Fantastic Monday open mic...All acoustic!

Excellent Sunday lunch. Really enjoyed!

Lovely sunday roast beef with large selection of vegetables

Very rude landlady barred my 2 sons for a misunderstanding on her part

Food 6 stars staff 6 stars what else can I say . spot on

Great food served by friendly staff , would highly reccommend to anyone

Very friendly local pub with a pretty garden. As a visitor to the area would go again.

Small country pub with fun company local atmosphere! That is what I wanted from my family gathering and that is what I got! Friday night, so busy but so lovely, staff were brilliant considering everything and the busy bustle! Booked a table and food was delicious! Staff smiling and friendly despite how busy it was, good for them! Will be booking again!

Hi every one my very 1st post!. Normally poor service ect is water off a ducks back to me. But enough is enough. Booked a table here and that was probably my 1st mistake .the service was very very poor to say the least we received 6 apologies during what should have been a quick pub meal that took two and a half hours to complete. We went to the bar twice to collect drinks ordered. My guest went to get menus promised. When a member of staff didn't return we wrote our order down and took it in ourselves. Someone came and asked if the order was to be served at the same time yes was our reply 20 minutes later one of our items was unavailable. Part of meal arrived after another wait . Remaining items a considerable time later. To be completed fair the food was ok but by now we where very hungry. Asked for the bill and asked for a consideration on it due to the problems. 2.5 hours for a simple pub meal and a free garlic bread and the replacement of the meal unavailable free. On what would have been a bill of over £100.00 with tip. Not good. And the landlady was to busy to see me!

Dog Friendly pub, what's not to like

Usually made very welcome but on this occasion I was treated very rudely by Anna the bar lady who was most off hand and unwelcoming, I will not be reccomending this pub for non locals, very cliquey and expensive and the fish pie at £12 was tasteless and only had a little salmon with no other fish in the pie, sauce OK but definately not worth the money 👎

Fabulous roast veggie lunch served beautifully by Carys

Always friendly this pub/restaurant is top drawer, lovely building going back several hundred years I believe, little garden for the summer and very good aspect in terms of sunny days, dog friendly. Particularly charming covered seating area also. Always excellent thanks white horse

Me, to landlady: “Hello” Landlady: “You’ll need to sign in” Me: “No problem. How’s it going?” Landlady: “What do you want then?” Me: ..... I get that it’s weird and stressful in hospitality at the moment, but the bare minimum I expect from a pub is an actual hello. This was possibly the least warm welcome I’ve ever received in any establishment. The younger landlord actually seems a decent chap, but the landlady seems to consider customers an inconvenience. Such a waste of a great location and a very characterful pub.

Had a disappointing experience as a member of staff would not stick to the 2 person at a time rule that she had asked me to abide by, letting a customer jump me in the queue. She then took a strong overreaction to the fact that I queried this and took it upon herself to search my friend on fb to inform him that I had been barred from the pub the next day. Complete abuse of the track and trace system put in place and feel quite disgusted that they would disregard customer confidentiality!!

Lovely friendly company good food

Been there twice now on a Sunday for there roast On both occasions the Yorkies were very well done but apart from that dinner was lovely Today really bad experience with member of staff She was very unfriendly Also knocked a full drink over on us , no apology No reaction , very sour faced girl Male member of staff came running over apologising and wiped the spillage up But still was not offered a drink to replace it Girl who knocked it over just went behind bar with no reaction , she had asked us did we want to see desert menu which we did but she did not bring it Male member of staff asked did we want desert menu and he brought it over Again desert was great Female member of staff that seemed to be a manager sitting at bar vaping while we were trying to eat our dinner very off putting Don’t think we will be returning which is a shame as we are new comers to village

Service was very good. The food was delicious and home cooked. Will go again.

Always a friendly welcome in The White Horse, the quintessential village pub.

A warm welcome awaits you here. The staff are very welcoming and warm. The food was good and hot (fairly standard pub fare but done to a good standard). They have specials but these were limited on the day we went as it was a Monday and they explained that they had been very busy over the weekend. The food however was still of a high standard and the personal touches by the staff made for a very good experience. We will definitely be back

Nice Fullers Pub. Friendly staff made me welcome.

Mum and I went here for Sunday roast. We hadn,t booked but they were more than happy to serve us. I had roast chicken and Mum had roast beef both were lovely. Large potion size haven,t had a roast in a pub with so much meat for a long time.

The food was great a nice selection for dinner. We were a table of 6, the food came out quickly, it was hot and fresh. Only 1 disappointment was that the bar staff gave us our G&Ts without any gin in it, a different staff member was at the bar and she insisted it had gin in it...she made us feel foolish...we then spoke to the staff member who made it and she smelt it, apologised and straight away corrected it.

Having recently moved to this part of the world my wife and I are keen walkers and sometimes we stop for a refreshment at random pubs/inns on our treks. We have stopped at this pub quite a few times and have always found the place very warm with a lovely roaring fire and is always a very clean establishment. The female staff and landlady are always welcoming, warm and helpful. It’s a cosy Olde World style pub with a good selection of beers and the wife tells me the wines are lovely and chilled. There is a lovely garden out the back which we generally vacate to on our walks weather permitting. It notably even has a small car park “rare in this area” and caters well for smokers with a covered seating area outside. We have eaten here on a few occasions and can recommend the Sunday Lunch which is delicious, plentiful and is value for money.

Just had a lovely lunch in the garden. Excellent food. Good beer. Friendly staff Dog friendly.

Good village pub friendly atmosphere

Sorry that we are not there outside next fish&chips as we brought it. Thank you

Favourite Pub!! We've just recently moved into the area and we love it 😁😁 Great atmosphere with lovely friendly staff! Nothing is ever too much trouble!!

Stayed overnight at this pub. Dinner was very nice. Desert was really nice. Both were served very quickly. Staff friendly and accommodating. Definitely will return.

Stayed here for the weekend, the room was light and air, the bed was very comfortable. Will book again.

This is probably the worst pub you will ever visit. The land lady swears at you, the drinks and food are over priced and there are 2 better pubs close by. Please avoid this place

Walked in without booking but the bar maid was more than happy to serve us for food and was bubbly and very helpfulI had calamari as a starter which was huge well cooked and presented nicelyI then had the mushroom tagliatelle for my main. I’ve had to take it home with me as I was given so much, I couldn’t leave it as it was deliciousMy girlfriend and I both being chefs were very impressed by the food and smiley service given to us by the young blonde lady who served us

Decided to go for a nice pub lunch whilst awaiting some deliveries as live opposite. We certainty were not disappointed. Both chose the prawn mayo baguettes which were lovely and fresh with plentiful juicy king prawns. Served with a delicious dressed salad and crispy plain tortilla chips the portion was large and could not have been tastier. Well done and would highly recommend

Good pub to be in, staff very welcoming.

So good to be back in a great English pub, even if it was only to pick up my brother and daughter

April 8th Open Mic was, by general agreement, the best this year!We were entertained & spoilt (& serenaded at times) by a talented array of 25 musicians & vocalists, the youngest (& talented) of whom was in his teens.We were also treated to an excellent horn section, infact at one point ;there was almost a complete orchestra on stage . For those of you who are reading this & are unsure about supporting these showcases of local talent, get your A into G on a Monday night!

Lovely quaint pub , been many times , love it there

They wouldn't accept our Scottish money, with the reason being that they couldn't tell if it was counterfeit, how bloody insulting.

I find it demeaning when English establishments do not accept Scottish money. How inconsiderate.

Enjoyed a fibrant, witty evening last night (Monday). An excellent array of musicians to entertain us all. So, if you enjoy live music & fancy a go too.. Well this is the place to showcase your talent..

Called in for lunch. Both beer and food were first class. Extremely satisfied.

Lovely cosy pub serving good beer and great home cooked food. Just a shame that the young bar staff have tunnel vision. Totally unable to see anyone waiting to be served.

Friendly and easy going with good food. Almost at the centre of quaint Westbourne Village Fun, laughs, food, drinks and good times! Will go again next time we are in Westbourne!

Came in this afternoon to a mummers play. Thoroughly enjoyable. Great atmosphere.

Visited here while visting family a really nice pub live music so nice

Great friendly place.. quiz night Weds

Can't believe I've not written a review of the White Horse before now! (And I'm not being bribed!)

Local village pub and restaurant

Lovely food, great atmosphere and good service. Could do with having a kids menu but offering smaller portions of adult meals definately works.

We were staying in Westbourne for the weekend and were immediately drawn to this Fillers Pub.Our first visit was on Friday evening and we quickly saw that this was a middle class locals pub which suited us perfectly. The first thing I'll say is that I would have normally given it a 4 star rating because of a couple of very minor points - a mistske on my final bill and I sometimes felt a bit ignored at the bar when trying to order a round while the girls were 'chatting'.It qualifies for that Fifth Star however because .... Hoorah!!!!!! Sanctuary ... there were no TV screens to be seen - absolutely wonderful.Anyway... the drinks on Friday were superb for Ale drinkers and my wife found the white wine 'lush.We went back on Sunday and had a delicious lunch there; roast pork for me with all the trimmings and a chicken dish for the wife - both meals came with generous portions and loads of vegetables. We finished off with a crumble each (with a choice of custard, cream or ice cream).The meal was excellent, service was good and it only cost £36.90 total for the 2 of us, inclusive of a small Coke each.

Lovely friendly atmosphere in this village pub. Ideal for a drink whilst waiting for fish n chips next door. If someone was creative it could be a really nice pub. Lick of paint, charity shop curtains and some fresh flowers would make a world of difference.

Went for the open mike, great evening

Great pub with friendly staff and special evenings

Friendly owners/staff. Great food! Very welcoming. And dog friendly which is a massive plus 😊. Highly recommend.

Friendly and dog friendly pub. Outdoor space with covered patio & garden. Theme nights but haven't experienced as yet.

Nice pub for a very reasonable price meal. Landlady and staff very pleasant. Will be going back again

Visit regularly, great food and service. Good range of drinks and an excellent variety of regular meals aswell as an extensive specials board. Big beer garden at the back of the pub - ideal for when the weather is nice. Highly recommended

Nice pub , good food ,and friendly staff, what more could not ask

We visit this pub regularly but don't often eat here. Took my parents and my children and the service was great. Food was delicious. Typical pub food done brilliantly. Highly recommended

Cosy place for quite drink& food

Never ate there, i believe the food is good, beer and wine reasonably priced, staff friendly , pub has just had a revamp , definitely would come again

Traditional Pub, friendly staff, great service,, Excellent food.

Nice pub for a very reasonable price meal. Landlady and staff very pleasant. Will be going back again

Proper British local pub with a great landlady.

Popped in for lunch and had a side of chips. Didn't need the chips! Great food, great service. Thanks again.
