White Horse Inn in Suffolk Coastal

Really lovely pub with a great garden! Despite kitchen having just closed, the staff were kind enough to serve us some lunch. Really nice food with generous portions (especially the burger!!) and very friendly staff- would recommend and we will be returning.

Lunchtime meal- very good. Adnams bitter.

Managed to fit us in in the downstairs room even when fully booked.

Brilliant staff. Very welcoming. Will return!

Wonderful pub. Great food and atmosphere at superb value.

Can't recommend this pub enough, excellent home cooked food n puddings. Very attentive staff. We'll be back for sure.

A super, friendly village pub. Will visit again soon.

Lovely pub, warm welcome, great Adnam’s beers. We had dinner, steak and ale pie, pork belly, scampi, all delicious, followed up fantastic desserts big on flavour and small in portion , perfect for us. Friendly service throughout. Everything good here, nothing to fault!

Fabulous. Had a great lunch here accompanied by a fantastically kept pint. Proper pub food and great service. They even had the rugby on!

Small but friendly and great service. We felt very welcome and the food was delicious and very good value. It's good simple pub food, cooked well and portions that aren't ridiculously huge. Thanks to Matt and his team for looking after us on a cold and windy January night!

Hoping to eat here soon. Stopped for a drink the other day and had a nice chat with the landlords, and a few days later suffered a double puncture nearby and managed to crawl my way to the pub. The landlord was so kind and let me keep the car safe outside the pub until I could get it repaired. I really appreciate the community spirit. Will be back to eat here soon.

Always love the food, service and atmosphere

Lovely pub fantastic food. My husband enjoyed his fish and chips he said the fish was really fresh. I had the turkey and cranberry pie, delicious. Pastry was nice and light and crammed full. So many vegetables and all beautifully cooked. Star of the show had to be the gravy, a nice sized jug full of beautifully thick and really tasty sauce. I might have accidentally had all of it. Can't wait to re- visit yum yum.

Excellent shoot lunch, great roast pork with amazing crackling and Adams pints of beer - wonderful.

We had a fantastic meal here. Lovely service, great beer and great food! Thank you!

Disappointed in the food. Clearly microwaved from the freezer.

Super proper pub. The service was 1st class and the owners were so friendly and helpful. Food was excellent and served quickly.

Stopped at lunch for a few starters as a tapas meal - excellent!

Appears to be a locals only pub.

Lovely pub set in a quaint little village, I had the scampi and chips and hubby had ham egg and chips, the portion sizes are very generous and cooked well. We both have food intolerance and the staff/owners went above and beyond to accommodate us, they were double checking everything for us and made some delightful suggestions for dessert which was a real treat. Being a small pub it can get noisey, but it's a very small observation. Would definitely recommend 👌

Good tasty and hearty pub food followed by exquisite deserts. Great welcoming service.

Booked a table at 12.00 for 18.30 the same night, sept. the 2nd. When we came in at 18.25, after our ride from Ipswich ( 45 min ) and asked for our table, they looked at us as if we told a joke, no table, no sorry at all and they turned around and serving people at the bar, as if we were nobody. Terrible, Terrible and never ever go there again.

Very friendly staff and locals. Great food and lovely beer garden

Amazing community paired with great food. Everything seems so casual as you can talk to the owners and the workers like they we your friends. Every Sunday they do a raffle and you can win over a hundred pounds! The service time is great and you can keep tabs for years! The White Horse is probably the most dog friendly business I have been to. They know my dog’s name and checks up on him! In conclusion, this pub maximises casualness along with fast and delicious food.

I really liked this pub. It was quiet, friendly and Normal. Really excellent food - not fussy, but delicious and lots of veggie options. Beer well kept. A lovely village pub. If you want Telly sport and a music machine, it's not for you!

If you want a drink past 8pm this is not the place to go. Despite opening hours saying until 10pm we got there at 8 and the land lady started turning all the lights off and shutting shop. We asked repeatedly if they were shutting up and the barmaid stated it’s not my decision ask her. It’s an openly hostile environment, with no welcome given unless have a dog. They make up the opening hours and are openly ridiculed and despised by locals, as we found out when we went two roads over to the other pub in the village.

As a Suffolk gal I never expect much from an Adnams pub. But absolutely delighted to have this family run pub, clearly in charge of the day to day running, the vegan food and the fact they accept cash! #DontKillCash

Hidden gem. Tasty food, big portions, reasonably priced. Feels like a cosy local.

We are on holiday and had an evening meal. The food was excellent. Even better is the service and the atmosphere. Staff were really helpful, kind and accommodating. I would return without any persuasion. Thank you for a lovely evening

Lovely location with a serene atmosphere and plesand staff who work quickly and efficiently. Lovely beer selection. Food was mediocre, had the steak and ale pie and the pie itself was lovely but the chips were undercooked and the veg lacked flavour and was either over boiled or under boiled. Seemed to be understaffed so lapse in food quality may only be an occasional thing. All the rest was lovely and I would visit again :)

This is a local cute little pub, my food was fine, but felt a little small/simplistic given the price. Again ordering the squid starter for £8 and 5 small pieces of squid was served. We were told later on that there were only two staff on, so i understand things slip sometimes. I had the meat platter for £15, yummy and looked great, again there just wasn't really that much, having said that, I was given a whole scotch egg and the menu said half, so bonus! My partner however ordered the pie, with chips and veg. The pie was the best bit, however gravy and veg seemed to lack salt and the parsnips had hard cores. Unfortunately the chips were also rather anemic and a bit on the hard side. Given that there were only two people on shift and that all the other reviews say the food was amazing, I feel we may have popped in on an off day. The beer was great though!

Went to this pub because we have been before and the pub was great good food and staff went today and cannot say about food as didn't have a meal but the person behind the bar was not pleasant not friendly at all

My husband and I were on a short break in East Anglia staying for a couple of nights in Westleton. We ate one night at the Crown and wanted something a little different on our other night without having to drive. We booked a table at the White Horse and had a very pleasant dinner with great service. Generous portions of good food in a nicely decorated establishment with excellent service. The pub was busy but this didn’t detract from our experience. We will certainly eat here again if staying locally.

Thank you so much . Food ideal for meat and 3 veg man ! Service couldnt fault Loved the atmosphere in bar with chit chat took me back yrs as a village pub should be. To me proves you can mix the modern with the old We will be back

Great pub with a good range of beers, wines by the glass and good food. We came for dinner and had two of the grazing platters. Prompt friendly service, and good value. Highly recommended.

Lovely cosy pub, friendly, good food and excellent service

Tried booking a meal for Saturday night..fully booked...ate elsewhere then went to pub at 8.30pm Saturday night for a drink to be told by barman they can't serve us as cashed up & closing even though still about 10 customers in there..absolute joke !!

What a fabulous place - very friendly and welcoming, and wonderful delicious food - a lovely traditional village pub. Probably need to book to make sure you can enjoy this little gem. Highly recommended!

The White Horse is a traditional looking pub, with a good range of drinks. We were staying locally and thought we'd try it out. The service was friendly, I had the steak pie, gravy, mash & vegetables. The pie & gravy were nice but not much meat in the pie, the mash unfortunately was very dense and tasted like it was out of a packet, the vegetables were very 'al dente' to the point I couldn't cut them for fear of them flying off the plate. Hubby had the fish in batter, which was fine. We each had a sweet and they were delicious and moreish. It's a great pub, and does get very busy.

Whilst on a days walk and birdwatching we popped into the White Horse Inn for lunch. Everyone was VERY friendly and helpful, we immediately felt welcomed and relaxed. Our Adnams beers were excellent and we had two lovely lunches. I had really tasty fish & chips and my partner had a huge, homemade scotch egg. We heartily recommend the White Horse and will certainly return - best lunch out we've had in years!

Whilst staying in the village we called in to this pub one evening and were befriended by some of the locals. The whole ambience of this pub is superb. It is a typical local drinking pub that also serves fantastic meals. The landlady is hospitable and makes you feel at home. We are visiting from South Wales and have been accepted by the community via the pub. If like us you're holidaying this is the place to visit. We have been to this pub 8 days out of our eleven day stay. Thank you Amy and staff.

We enjoyed our evening meal at the White Horse Inn. We were seated downstairs away from the bar which was perfect for us, with two young children. The children had a huge plate of ham, eggs and peas to share which they tucked into happily. My husband and I had fish and chips, although I asked to have mine grilled rather than battered and fried, which they kindly accommodated. Fresh and tasty. We also had vegetable pakoras as a starter which my husband said was the best thing he tried during our stay in Suffolk. Service was friendly and efficient too.

V.busy. Squeezed us in (still in Winter mode at the time) for Sunday Lunch. Very good meal, will visit again. 🙂

Excellent real pub with a great atmosphere and lovely food. We booked on the phone for the first evening and it was so good we booked again for another evening before we left. Recommended!

Pleasant pub. Airy and light. Good Adnams beer and decent food.

Good food as usual mix of adnams beer and friendly hosts

Outstanding village pub with well kept Adnams beer. Staff very friendly and work their socks off. What's not to like?

Very expensive average meal overpriced won't be coming back

Nice pub. Good beer. Friendly. We ate there twice. First time was fine. On second occasion, having booked three days in advance, we were given a table a few feet from the door (on a cold, windy evening). The "steak and kidney" pie was a good size and had good pasty, but little steak and even less kidney (three pieces, none much bigger than a grain of rice). Had it been advertised as a mince pie and priced accordingly it would have been good but advertised as it was, it was a failure.

Lovely genuine village pub excellent home made food no ping ping here and good service by a hard working couple

Found the pub by chance and glad we did . Fantastic food and super friendly. Great portion sizes and food really tasty. Look forward to returning!

Very pleasant local pub. Cheerful and welcoming (dogs included). The food is outstanding! Definitely recommend......... Don't forget to say hi to Digby if he is there....

Great fins, very busy and very welcoming. Nice place to finish a walk.

Lovely little place! Stopped in for lunch after a walk nearby, staff were incredibly friendly, and we were served very quickly for both drinks upon arrival, and taking our orders. Loved that there were a variety of vegetarian & vegan options on the menu (including a jackfruit pie!) sometimes this is hard to come by at certain pubs. They are dog friendly too 🐶 We’ll certain be back again in future if we are in the area.

Nice country pub, food very good, service perfect.

I really enjoyed my visit recently to the White horse. Several things that impressed me: they were really family friendly with high chairs, children's menu and changing facilities. There was also several interesting vegan options which caught my eye. A tiny point to improve would be to have a few more vegetarian options as well as vegan. There was also no vegetarian or vegan options on the children's menu. Luckily my son was happy with just chips. The place was so lovely and friendly and the staff really wonderful that I wouldn't let this put me off - I am already thinking about when to come back 😃

So happy we went to the Whitehorse for dinner. The pub was full of locals who were all very friendly and the bar had a great range of drinks. The food was all freshly cooked and was wonderful.

Little gem of a place! Lovely people and good food. Well worth a visit-or two.

Fantastic friendly atmosphere and welcome. Lovely food and great service a gem of a find highly recommended. Only disappointment is we didn’t find it sooner !

Perfect traditional country pub. Crackling fire, warm welcome, best beer in the area and delicious, reasonably priced foods. The landlords and locals are customer and dog friendly too!

Lovely, small-ish unpretentious pub. Staff were friendly and very efficient, good selection of beers plus a pub dog. Floorboards, no music, good value food. Absolutely perfect. Well worth a visit but although they serve food from 6pm, not sure if they serve all evening. Best to check.

Lovely pub and restaurant. The food was delicious and the service was prompt. Next time we will be visiting again. The clientele were very friendly too!

We hadn't booked, but arrived at opening time in the hope of securing a table for two. We were welcomed, and directed to a table for two in an area separate from the bar. We were invited to purchase drinks, which were bought to our table together with the menu. I'll eat anything except oysters and marrow, so everything on the menu was OK by me. I chose steak and kidney pie with red cabbage cooked in orange juice, together with mustard mashed potatoes. The pie was full of tender steak chunks and a fair amount of kidney. The pastry was firm and flavoured with a dash of herbs on the crust for extra taste. Far far better than Fray Bentos. My wife chose lasagne. This was a sizeable slice which she managed to finish. She is very critical of poor quality cooking. There were no complaints. For dessert I chose apple and autumn fruit crumble with ice cream. The staff were happy to provide two spoons so we could share. We were even offered a second empty dish to enable us to transfer half the crumble to it for my wife to eat more easily. Overall a good price for a very good meal, with very friendly and helpful staff. We did think mid week would guarantee a table. Both the bar tables and restaurant tables were soon filled, so would recommend booking to ensure you secure a table. There is street parking, and a pub car park. The car park was not illuminated, and it is difficult to see after dark. There are floodlights attached to the outbuildings over looking the carpark, but we're not on. Possibly an omission on the part of the staff to switch them on.

Chicken pie was absolutely delicious.

Simply excellent food at very reasonable prices. Light as a feather batter on fresh cod. The venison sausages and garlic mash...simply superb. Compliments au chef!!

Excellent menu, and lovely food, staff are friendly and helpful, would recommend without hesitation!👍

We were staying in Westleton village and are so pleased that we booked dinner at this great village pub. The menu has a good selection and reasonably priced. We chose the seafood platter followed by summer pudding/cream and bakewell tart/custard, the food was absolutely delicious...

Had a lovely burger tasted homemade nice coleslaw. Chips very pale and soft wasn’t so nice. Setting of the pub lovely.

Lovely beer in a lovely location

Brilliant food menu really reasonable prices ,nice atmosphere

A nice local pub with a garden in the village. The staff were very friendly and we were able to take our dog in to the pub. The food was great, very tasty and fresh and quickly served. We ate in the garden which was...

Popular pub with very nice hosts. Hearty roast for Sunday Lunch, with very good vegetables. Portions are big. Ask for gravy jug - my son wouldn't eat his as it was dripping with gravy. Beef was a bit underdone and tough, pork was more fat than meat and minimal chewy crackling. I've eaten other items on the menu before which were all good.

Have been meaning to try for a while...and wish we hadnt left it so long! Lovely village pub, slightly tucked away. We sat in the garden which was relaxing and pleasant. Great selection of Adnams beers and wines at the bar and ladies serving were...

Speed here for a nice drink in the garden. Nice looking menu with loads of fresh fish, but we may not squeeze in a meal this time, so we'll have to come back!

On holiday with the family in the Minsmere Reserve and needed a last minute dinner option. Popped into to the Whitehorse Inn as this was our only nearby option. What an absolute delight! The food and service was outstanding. Authentic and tasty home made pub...

Delious Chicken + Leek Pie with. LOTS of lovely Veg😋

Just had a week on holiday in Westleton and this was our go to pub! It may not look as flash as others but it sure is worth a visit. We ate here 3 times and each time the food was excellent. Really fresh and...

We visited this lovely pub for meals on three occasions during the past week whilst on holiday in Suffolk. We found it very welcoming and the service excellent. Being as we had a rather large dog with us we ate in the garden which is...

Excellent staff and varied menu. Food well prepared and presented, definitely worth a visit if in the area. Lovely atmosphere and friendly local customers.

Beautiful location for a lunchtime pint. A very good pint of Ghost ship. Very friendly bar staff.

Friendly staff good service, perfect 🍺 outstanding food 👌.

Lovely friendly pub. Excellent food.

Had a very nice ale here and the food!! Wonderful. Very friendly locals

Brilliant food and service fully recommended, we were a party of 10 and all the food was hot and good quality.

We are regular visitors to this part of Suffolk but have shamefully never stopped for long in Westleton. As a break we decided to book The White Horse for a family dinner. This is our kind of pub. Friendly, quite small (no bad thing), comfortable,...

Nice pub with very good accommodating staff. We had had a long walk across Dunwich heath that took longer than expected. The pub finished serving lunch at 2.30pm. I called on my way there at 2.34 and they very happily took my order for 4 x fish and chip that was ready on arrival. 🙂🙂🙂🙂

Excellent local pub. Great beer and food choices. Made to feel very welcome on both evening visits.

Had an evening meal there. Very welcoming staff. Food plentiful and very good. Adnams Broadside very good.

My wife took me away for a few days and whilst in this part of Suffolk we dined at this cosy little pub. Very friendly and welcoming with a very nice menu from which to choose. The food was really good with service to match....

Bit apprehensive as although a small village the white horse looked like a proper locals inn (which it is) and it might be a bit too clicky. Couldn’t have been better looked after. The staff are friendly and attentive with super table service for food...

Delicious food, beer was excellent and a really welcoming and friendly pub.

Such a friendly place. Lots of space inside and plenty outside too. Even seats beside the village pond where you can sit and watch the ducks in peace and tranquility. Best food at reasonable prices too.

Excellent food and drink staff very helpful and attentive making sure we had everything we wanted

Really good quality food in a friendly local pub. Good quality ingredients, cooked to order, fresh veggies done just right, and lovely desserts done just right - home cooked and prepared. They focus on quality, not on overloading your plate. Really tasty, and really excellent value. All this, plus a village green and a duckpond, who could want for more! We love this place.

Visited here in Feb when staying locally. The staff and other customers were so friendly and the food and beer were excellent. Suggest check opening times and whether food is available before you go.

Lovely pub with a great atmosphere. Good was amazing

Disappointing. Heavy unfresh food. inexperienced waiting. Bare not comfortable venue. Sad for such a lovely village.

Pretty village but pub a lack lustre...

My wife and I visited "The White Horse" twice during a recent walking week in Suffolk whilst staying in a cottage in the next village. Nothing to look at from the outside, but warm and friendly inside, patronised by the locals, which is always a...
