The White Hart Inn

We visited a nice-looking pub restaurant with a good car park and pleasant surroundings inside. The staff were friendly and there was a great selection of real ales. However, our meal was disappointing. Three of us ordered roast lamb and one ordered roast beef. The vegetables were lacking, with the roast potatoes overcooked and tasteless, and the carrots seemed to be from a can. The meat was tough and difficult to cut. None of us opted for dessert, so we can't comment on that. Overall, the poor quality of the meal means we won't be returning to this restaurant.

This review reflects the opinions of five people who dined at The White Hart for Sunday lunch on December 17, 2023. Four members of the group are regular walkers and have experienced food and drinks at various country pubs. Despite usually only stopping for a beer during walks in Iron Acton, they decided to try the food at The White Hart and were blown away by the quality and size of the Sunday lunch for £13.95. The beef, usually served medium rare, was cooked to perfection according to their preference. The vegetables were also cooked just right, with plenty of flavor and texture. The homemade Yorkshire puddings were a highlight as well. The group also enjoyed the Butcombe beer, which was well-kept and served perfectly. The service at the bar and table was excellent. Overall, they highly recommend The White Hart for Sunday lunch and look forward to dining there again in the future.

We have recently just rediscovered this pub and really like it. However, today we popped in for a few games of pool and were having a lovely time until a group of older people in the corner started using racist slurs so the rest of the pub could hear. I confronted them and was told they were ‘just being honest’ and then they tried to back track and said they had been talking about their dog (the racist slur rhymes with dog, so this was VERY clever of them). Unfortunately for them I had heard them loud and clear, and they had also repeatedly referred to someone as a black b . My complaint is that there was no management present and this behaviour was allowed to go unchecked I don’t want to drink in a pub that openly allows this kind of behaviour. My children are dual heritage and I was personally very upset by the comments. Sad, as we were really starting to enjoy going here.

We recently dined at The White Hart for our family Christmas meal, and we all enjoyed the Christmas Set Menu. The food was delicious with generous portion sizes. The staff were very friendly, and we definitely plan to visit again!

We were recommended this pub by our Air b&b host . Great recommendation. Very quiet little pub which we aren't used to but very nice and welcoming. Staff very friendly and service was spot on. We had the scotch egg which was lovely and warm with a soft middle, huge portion for a starter ! The lamb was so lovely and tender , nice size portion was very suprised ! My partner enjoyed his goats cheese tart .. Had no room for dessert. Thank you for a lovely meal!
