Went before Christmas and had their set menu. Was so good I booked Boxing Day lunch there as well. The food is excellent as is the service. If I have one criticism is the wait between ordering and courses is a bit long. However, you now know this so don’t go if you are in a rush. I would highly recommend and will return again and again.

Arrived for a bar snack at lunchtime- staff took our menu away & said not available today- choose from restaurant menu only. 3 of 4 meals arrived at our table after 45 minutes & we were told “ there is a bit of a delay with the chicken. We have run out & someone has gone to the shop to buy more.” I asked to cancel my order. 5 minutes later the meal arrived & staff said “ someone else cancelled their order- so here is your meal.” We thought that odd- but I began to eat . I realised the chicken was cold in the middle. Staff took it away & returned to say they would “ need to cook the meal from scratch.” I didn’t have time to wait ( meal was “ slow braised chicken ),and all 3 other diners had eaten their meal by then.

Met some friends here for a bar meal, the staff decided we were too cramped where we were and set us up a space at the end of the dining room. The food was excellent but it’s the staff who made and it’s why I always try to visit when I am down in Cambs.

A fantastic meal. One of the best we have had. Service and atmosphere excellent. We had Christmas menu and the turkey was beautiful and moist. I have eaten here before and had sea bass which was equally good. A great place to ear or just have a drink.

Excellent Xmas dinner last night with a group of friends. Even though the restaurant was very busy, the level of service was excellent. The food was of a high quality and portion sizes were very generous. I would thoroughly recommend it.

A very average restaurant, I would have given it less stars if it wasn’t for the wonderful waitress. She seemed to do everything in the place. There was another gentleman in the restaurant, but he seemed to just stand around doing nothing whilst the young lady ran around doing all the work. It’s incredible she managed to remain extremely polite and cheery. She said her name was Daisy, and I hope she was tipped well that evening. The food was pleasant enough, but very large portions.

We’ve been many times before and the service and food has always been excellent. Tonight however it was terrible. We wouldn’t usually write on here but feel the experience tonight was so bad that we have to and there were no management about. After finishing our starters the waitress who we believed was in charge asked if we were ready for drinks and desserts, we explained we hadn’t received our main meal yet. Within minutes our main meals arrived but the steak meal was all cold. We called the same waitress over and she said she’d get it heated up. When it came back the steak was overcooked and the rest of the food was heated to the point it was inedible. We approached the same waitress to explain this and her response was ‘what do you want me to go about it?’ Her attitude was appalling and we decided to not have that meal. We then asked gif the bill 3 times and she was rude and couldn’t even answer us. I have never been to a restaurant where the person in charge treats customers in that way. We ended up having to wait at the counter for her to arrive and ask for the bill again. We paid and as we left she sarcastically said goodbye. Appalling service and appalling food. I hope this person never has to deal with your customers again. We won’t be returning again and certainly won’t be recommending the white hart to anyone we know.

A really great selection on the menu with a particularly fabulous steak and ale pie. Pudding portions were HUGE and maybe a bit too big for a normal appetite but doggy bags available. Friendly staff too.
I had a wonderful evening with my friend, I am gluten & dairy free, which wasn't a problem in fact the chef went the extra mile to adapt the mail. I wanted to be dairy free. The menu has many things which are gluten free. I give it 10 out of 10Dietary restrictions: Great for any celebration

Food was ok but not up to its usual high standards, service was really slow and disjointed. Had one meal come out and they had finished by the time last meal came out. 3 hours for 2 courses is not good enough.

Went originally just for a quick drink but ordered the bbq ribs platter, was amazing all of it tasted really good, the staff were friendly and helpful, presentation of the food was spot on. Served promptly and were happy to make us food even though the kitchen had just shut. Never been in here before but will definitely return, a very happy customer

After reading positive reviews for The White Hart, my partner and I, along with friends were looking forward to our Sunday roast. Sadly however, we were quite disappointed. Two of us had the roast lamb, which was fine, apart from cold parsnips alongside and a huge tasteless roast potato. My friend however had roast beef, which she had to send back, as completely inedible. The second plate sadly was no better, as the beef was gristly and tough. The desserts I have to say were very nice though. When we came to pay the bill, we had to ask for it to be adjusted, as the waitress did say previously that they would make it right with us! Well, to my disgust all they reduced it by was £7.50 half the price of one of the mains, and no apology whatsoever. I hasten to add we will not be returning to The White Hart for a Sunday lunch!
