Will Larter left this review about White Horse
I called in after Trinity's defeat in the FA Cup against Accrington (in extra time), with the Eight Jolly Brewers long since closed for the night, with it being a Sunday. Thinking I might have a whisky, as before, it was a pleasant surprise to see a hand pump with Black Sheep Best, at just £2.50 a pint. And this turned out to be one of the best Black Sheep I'd had this year (NBSS 4). So, in contradiction to what I said in my review of August 2022, I can now see myself coming back to this one; I hope the cask beer will be on regularly (not just at the weekend).

A quick visit before going to a match at Gainsborough Trinity's Northolme ground, and it was pretty busy in this one, despite competition from the nearby Spoons and Stonegate's Canute. With no real ale available here I decided to just have a whisky. Like many of the Craft Union pubs I've tried, this one appeared to be smartly decorated and well run, but I'm unlikely to return because the Eight Jolly Brewers is just around the corner.

Old Boots left this review about White Horse Inn
Formerly multi-roomed but opened out into one room with three areas. Counter is to left with two faces, an array of national kegs and two unused pulls, one badged as Doombar. Modern antique pine woodwork the bench seating looks freshly upholstered, the walls a little less fresh. Big screens both ends and music playing constantly but not at outrageous volume. Other than decor not much change since Mr Winfield's visit.
