Top Places and Services in West moors, Dorset

We regularly visit the white hart on Fridays with my wife, young daughter and in-laws. David (the owner) is a great host and cannot do enough to ensure our time at the pub is enjoyable. He is great with our daughter and because mamma keeps her on a strict diet he has even made her food that is not on the menu. We love the food (especially the legendary ploughman’s and seasonal specials) and the atmosphere. We also tried a Sunday roast here recently and it was delicious. It’s a place that we are proud to call our local.

We visited this lovely pub after it was taken over by the new owners, and I must say, it’s an absolute gem! (We now make it a regular visit once or twice a week) From the moment we walked in, we were made to feel so welcome—it's clear they genuinely care about their customers. Not only do they provide excellent service, but they’ve also gone above and beyond to make sure my 1-year-old daughter feels right at home. They prepare healthy snacks for her while we enjoy our meals, which is such a thoughtful touch.

The food here is fantastic, with the summer ploughman’s being a real standout. It's fresh, flavorful, and perfectly put together. Whether you’re after a relaxing drink or a hearty meal, this pub offers both in abundance. It’s great to see a local spot where families can feel comfortable, enjoy great food, and leave with a smile. Highly recommend! Good luck David, James and team with your new adventure xx

My friends & I had a,fantastic morning, enjoying lovely tea, scones & cakes . Thank you David for making it a very special pre birthday Celebration. Can thoroughly recommend a visit, wonderful staff. Really great atmosphere. And incredibly comfy chairs.

WOW what a fantastic hidden gem! As it was our first visit we were unsure what to expect. There was plenty of parking and seating outside on arrival. The friendly bar lady told us it had recently been refurbished and under new management. The decor was beautiful and had 2 log fires burning giving it a warm and welcoming feel. The staff, food and service was excellent. We had heard about the legendary ploughman’s which we wanted to try but unfortunately due to high demand they were waiting on a second delivery so we opted for the pie and stew which were both delicious!

The only downside was an extremely rude woman sat on a nearby table who was causing a commotion about the ploughman’s being off the menu. The bar lady was extremely apologetic and was offering alternatives put the woman was not having any of it. She had no thought or consideration for other customer who were sat enjoying their meals. This went on for a good 10 minutes. She then got up and started shouting and waving her phone about at the staff in the bar area and proceeded to storm out with her husband looking extremely embarrassed in tow!
We weren’t fortunate enough to try the ploughman’s but have booked to go again next week with friends and family. We also want to try the Sunday roast and were advised to book as they get very busy.
Well Done White Hart you have done an incredible job, look forward to visiting you again soon.
