The best restaurants serving French food in West Ruislip Hillingdon London

We went out to lunch at the White Bear. I have been before but it was so long ago,long before it became a Heartwood Inn and I cannot even remember what year I last went in this pub was that long ago(although I did go for the Christmas market at the end of 2024) TBH,it is a nice pub lunch but with a twist. The decor is nice. I liked the addition of cushions on the seats to elevate the comfort of the back of the seat. It was very peaceful inside. The service is good and the staff were friendly and attentive. Requirements were handled well. The food was exemplary,the gluten free range has improved massively which is a good thing. There are quite a few options on the menu if you are gluten free. If you have ever been to TGI Fridays and needed to accsess the gluten free menu it is similar to how it is done here,just scan the QR code on the menu to find out. For my mains I went for the Chicken Roulade,it was delicious and flavourful. I added a bit of mash as an extra and that was delicious. The vegetables and tomato sauce were nice,despite that I originally requested not to have the tomato sauce,the tomato sauce came with the dish on a separate plate with the veg so I could try a little bit which was nice of them. The dish is part of the lunch menu but I was impressed about how good value it was,you would pay more in the Harvester for chicken! Onto desserts,I had the blackcurrant,rhubarb and elderflower and the vanilla ice cream. It was clear which one was the best. And drum roll…it was the vanilla it was very tasty. Blackcurrant was my second favourite and then the rhubarb and elderflower. TBH,they were all delicious and I would have the same scoops again. For drinks I went for the apple juice and orange juice(with no bits)which were delicious. The toilets were nice and the garden area is beautiful. I would highly recommend the White Bear in Ruislip. I hope to return soon.

Thoroughly enjoyed our time here over the weekend. Nothing was too much trouble.
