The White Horse Restaurant presents a refined, ingredient-led menu that balances classic British comfort with modern gastropub creativity. The “nibbles” section sets the tone with options such as Red Onion & Thyme Focaccia, Marmite Butter, Oysters, Wagyu Beef Salami, Gordal Olives, and Cantabrian Anchovies, offering a mix of indulgent and simple starters designed for sharing. Starters continue this elevated approach with dishes like Chicken Liver Pate with caramelized walnuts and onion chutney, Salt & Pepper Pork Belly, creamy Burrata with Crispy Chilli Oil & Blood Orange, Half Dozen Snails Grilled With Garlic Butter, and Grilled King Scallops paired with seaweed braised leeks and brown butter breadcrumbs. The sides, including Chips & Garlic Aioli, Parmesan & Truffle Chips, and Port Braised Sticky Red Cabbage, reinforce a strong emphasis on richness and indulgence.
Mains are clearly the heart of the menu, showcasing British produce with dishes such as Confit Shoulder Of Welsh Lamb, Roast Wagyu Beef & Yorkshire Pudding, and Honey Roast Smoked Ham, alongside more contemporary plates like Smoked Haddock & Chorizo Risotto with Crispy Poached Egg & Parmesan and Jerusalem Artichoke & Welsh Cheese Gratin with Celeriac Purée, Truffle Vinaigrette & Kale. The variety continues across both meat and vegetarian-friendly options, all presented with a focus on depth of flavour and seasonal balance.
Desserts and afters lean into indulgence, featuring Sticky Toffee Banana Pudding with Malt Ice Cream, Toffee Sauce & Toasted Pecans, Dark Chocolate Crémeux with Kumquats & Caramelised White Chocolate, Buttermilk Panna Cotta with Yorkshire Rhubarb & Shortbread, and Whipped Nutella Cheesecake with Vanilla Ice Cream. The cheese selection is equally strong, with Perl Las, Cenarth Brie, and Hafod, served alongside pickles, quince jelly, sourdough crackers, and optional 10 Year Old Tawny Port. Overall, the menu delivers a polished countryside dining experience with a strong focus on rich flavours, premium ingredients, and classic-meets-modern British cooking.
