The White Hart - Woking

Lovely meal great service overall excellent

Lovely meal and lovely staff!
The food was tasty with real thought given to the mix of flavours.
The desserts were divine

I had not eaten here for a number of years but my Mother said she always enjoyed the food (lunchtimes). My friend and I had dinner here on a Monday evening. It was busy. Lovely ambience and the staff were friendly. Originally we were shown to a table near to very loud speaker, but were quickly shown to another table before we sat down.
I ordered the cod and chips. The cod was nice but the chips were very over cooked and bland. I chose pancakes for dessert and these were rock hard (The restaurant took the dessert off the bill). Food is over priced.
I am due to have lunch here in a few days time with my family, hope food is better.
However, the two young men who served us were really professional and the service was excellent.

Efficient booking service.
Pork belly dish not very tasty to much fat not enough pork..sauces good though The other dishes my family choose looked good .

I visit the White Hart on a fairly regular basis, either for drinks with colleagues or the occasional meal. I have known the White Hart since 1974 and witnessed all its various changes, both structurally and ownership's and have always enjoyed my visits there. It has gone through various stages of being good, being fair and being not so good. It went through a tremendously good period when there were lots of Polish staff - gosh it was so efficient and so good. The current ownership do well although there have been one of two occasions when one has had to wait to be served at the bar a bit too long - occasions when there have not been enough bar staff to cope with number of people wanting a drink. Management need to be able to spot this and switch duties of staff to manage the situation and not leave themselves open to comments as I have just made.

Nice atmosphere
Good choice of food
Friendly staff

Visited with my sister for a sunday roast. She had the mixed roast and I had beef. Both were very good and the protion sizes were great for the price paid. Whilst I didn't drink on this occasion as the designated driver the selection of beers and wine looked good. Service was very good and the atmosphere was nice, it was my first visit but as I live close I will be back.

Firstly we were not shown to our table but told 'it's over there'. Turned out to be right next to a music speaker playing very intrusive music. Asked to be moved or have it turned down. No joy. Eventually asked person who seemed to be in charge who unplugged it. Food was ok.

We eat at the white hart quite often, the last time we went the experience was not good st all, very slow service and we were even given the wrong bill at the end of the evening! This time was better however the service was still very slow we only had a main course and dessert , we felt it was very expensive for the food? we seemed to be waiting for our main course a very long time before it arrived .

Nice old world ambience with a respectful clientele so no irritating noise. Just happy, low key banter.
We were there on a Sunday and the choice of lunch was the complete package for a Sunday at sensible prices plus an a la carte if you so wished.
The food was beautifully cooked and presented; the American waiter was unobtrusive but attentive and very able.
Just a very pleasant experience all round. We’ll definitely go again, probably in the evening next time.
