Graham Coombs left this review about The White Hart
a fairly upmarket stone-built pub on a busy road junction. It is all very smart, with a tasteful pale green colour scheme and posh furnishings. As mentioned in the previous review, there is a heavy restaurant focus with both ends laid up however the large central section remains as a bar. This has a mix of high tables with high chairs and semicircular banquettes on a partly stone-flagged floor. There is also a tidy garden terrace, although I should imagine the traffic is annoying. Ales on were TT Boltmaker and Leeds Pale, and I might have been lucky but they were in very good condition; nothing of much note on the keg taps. Food is pricey but good.

A long thin pub at the bottom of the well known local landmark of Pool Bank, the road that climbs up the southern flank of Wharfedale towards the airport. Unremittingly modernised inside with the usual fake flags, removed walls and dodgy ceiling. Being a thin pub the counter is along the back wall and has a trio of pulls, a nasty and pricey Landlord, Doombar and an Abbeydale pale, keg wise there’s a selection of solos with largely lager and a cider plus Guinness. The entrance is only from the car park which tells you enough. When taking a leak I was almost gassed by the auto perfume machine. It’s a dining pub just swerving being a full on restaurant, you can just get a drink but the beer’s not that good and it’s overpriced, in a word; poncy.
