The White Hart - South Oxfordshire

The roast at this restaurant is amazing and the staff are incredibly friendly. It's a charming and family-friendly pub with a lovely dog. We visited on a late Sunday afternoon with our daughter and furry friend and were delighted to find a table available. The food tasted just like a homemade roast, with the beef and turkey being particularly delicious. The staff were all very welcoming and the service was excellent. We will definitely be making this our go-to spot for Sunday roasts. Highly recommended.

This restaurant offers excellent value with delicious food, attentive service, and overall great value. I highly recommend it over the nearby Cherry Tree in Stoke Row.

Unfortunately, our recent experience was disappointing. We booked a Christmas lunch for about twelve people, only to find out that there was no Christmas menu available. This was partly our mistake for not checking beforehand, but the service we received was incredibly poor. Three young girls were serving us and there was no sign of any management presence. It seems that the recent takeover of another pub in Playhatch has had a negative impact on this restaurant. The unanimous decision among our group was that we will not be returning.

After many previous good lunches over several years at the White Hart, Nettlebed we were very disappointed on our last visit. The ambience was still good but standards have really dropped! Four of us arrived for a pre-booked lunch at Noon. There were very few other diners present throughout our visit. Orders were quickly taken for a hot sandwich lunch and drinks but it was 55 minutes before any food arrived and when it did the quality was poor. Bread was hard, toasted slices were burned and the fillings were cold (including hard over-cooked strips of steak). The soup was excessively salty (one person had stomach ache after eating it). Some drinks ordered were never ever brought to us and one diner (with coeliac) was served with a gluten-free sandwich with a filling containing gluten. The simple coffee order was mixed up and the wrong coffees were brought. All very amateurish and extremely disappointed. Prices have also increased. Sadly, we will not be returning in a hurry.

Came with a group of 8 friends. It was a Tuesday evening and they accommodated us easily enough. Good choice of food on the menu. As a starter I had the bread with oil and balsamic vinegar. Unfortunately, the balsamic used, didn’t soak up into 5he bread with the olive oil. As a main, I had the sea bass which was very good. The others in the group also seemed pleased with their main courses. Staff were both helpful and efficient. Food and drink was reasonably priced. Would happily go there again
