More than Pub Grub!

Two visits in one week says it all! Both times we had excellent food and service with a choice of local specials despite it being the Christmas period. It was welcoming, plenty of parking and impressively already has 4 electric car charging points. Most definately...More

One to be avoided

There is nothing to be recommended about this place. Food awful, service poor and the décor/setting is scruffy including a muddy carpark. Very overpriced too

Tasty Lunch

I thoroughly enjoyed lunch at this restaurant, particularly the pork belly main course. We had a starter as well and found that we could not manage a pudding due to the quantity of food! The staff were friendly and the service timed nicely. The surroundings...More

We wish we hadn't bothered - Failure from start to finish.

On Friday afternoon I called The White Horse and, selecting option 2 for the restaurant, was forwarded to an answering service which requested a detailed message and promised to return my call. I clearly stated my phone number and requested a table for Sunday lunch....More

We had dinner at the White Horse Saturday evening and the restaurant/pub is beautifully decorated with a good atmosphere. The staff are all attentive and very friendly. The food is very nice but some of the starters are quite expensive (£13.95 for two scallops with...More

Fantastic night away

We stayed here in early October with friends. The staff are very friendly. The rooms are great. The food was excellent (especially the game pie). We had a great stay here and will definitely be back.

Beautiful building serving properly done food

Arriving here in the dark makes you feel back in the Middle Ages (almost). But once inside you are in a different world. Food preparation was above the average expected in places like these, which was reflected by the prices. Although not exorbitant, it wasn’t...More

I can eat like a horse but I prefer to eat at the White Horse

This was our third meal out on a recent trip to Chichester and it was the best. I can't quite give it 5 stars because it is expensive. I had a lovely meal, sea bass in a mussel and saffron sauce with a potato terrine...More
