Dietry   Requirements

Just a heads-up we’re a very small independent & we can’t cater for every dietary need, but we’ll always do our very best to keep you well fed and happy. 

We absolutely love dogs here at The White Horse they’re more than welcome in our snug bar (sometimes they’re the best-behaved customers, to be honest). That said, our snug is rather snug… at peak times it can feel like a live-action sketch featuring free-range children (probably ours), a Crufts semi-final, and a few burly Welsh farmers who’ve clearly had a rough week especially if you’ve seen the state of things on Clarkson’s Farm. All we ask is that you keep dogs, kids, and farmers under some form of control. And yes, we’ve got water bowls just ask, no need for puppy-dog eyes.

If you manage to get a pram through our door, congrats! Although you’ve just re-enacted the Suez Canal blockage, but with snacks and nappies. We totally get it (we’ve got kids too), but fair warning: it’s a bit of a tight squeeze & we kindly ask to leave all prams in your boot or outside the pub.

At The White Horse, we always aim to put our best foot forward usually the clean one and we continuously work hard to make sure your experience with us is as delightful as a Yorkshire pudd on a Sunday afternoon. We’re so incredibly proud of our team; they’re the beating heart of this pub (alongside the incredible food & beers, obviously). Now, while we strive for perfection, we’re still mere mortals, not hospitality-shaped robots, so occasionally things may go a bit… sideways. We all have good & bad days except.
We’d love to agree that the customer is always right, but let’s be honest if you insist your steak should be cooked rare, medium-well, and vegan all at once, we may struggle. And as for TripAdvisor… well, we prefer the age-old wisdom of “if you’ve nothing nice to say, pop the kettle on instead.”
The British hospitality industry is tough enough without emotional damage from a two-star review titled “My Chips Looked Judgemental”. So… let’s all remember: #BeKind #BeUnderstanding and most importantly, #ItsOnlyAMealNotMajorSurgery. #SupportBritishHospitality
If we’re not your cup of tea, please go a support another incredible local hospitality business that could be more up you’re ally.

When leaving after a good time, please channel your inner ninja, not a full brass marching band. We’ve got lovely neighbours (who actually like us), and we’d love to keep it that way!

Love and gravy,
The White Horse Team
