If you eat in the bar area you go to the bartender order your drink of choice and meal.

But really who goes to a pub in England and not order fish and chips. This is the place to do so. They do have a restaurant but I believe you need a reservation for that. Worth every bit for a nice meal out and I believe that the menu is a bit different.

This is my third dinner experience at The Bell, and it certainly won't be my last. The atmosphere in the restaurant is calm and pleasant when it's not so busy, but does seem to liven up when the tables start filling with diners. The decor is classy, and there are lots of little corners tucked away for a private family gathering or an intimate meal for two. Food here really is something special, I have tried various meals from the menu and have never been disappointed. There are menu regulars for those who like to find their favourite dish and order it every time, but the specials are changed often for those of us who like to be adventurous. I really do think this is somewhere to come for a special occasion, it's a delightful treat each time I get to come here and I'm sure you won't be disappointed.

Thanks to its central location and tons of history, it seems like this pub has suffered at the hands of tourists like myself in recent years. The interior is smaller than other pubs I visited, but could be downright cozy if it weren't for the people coming in, looking around, and then leaving after taking a photo or two. (Maybe I just caught a tour bus day) They have 8-10 beers on tap, offer wine, and was told that the fish & chips are tip top, though we just had a few pints on our visit. Service at the bar was friendly and prompt, and we snagged one of the few tables available to sit and people watch. Overall White Horse is a fine small pub and well worth a visit if you love historic buildings/businesses. You can be the judge of the rest.
