The White Hart is a Former 17th Century Coaching Inn now converted into a Hotel, restaurant and bar. I couldn't quite work out what it was actually trying to be ( Hotel, restaurant or pub ?), but I think it probably leads with the food and is mainly there to for the Michelin listed restaurant. The bar area was pleasant enough, on two levels, a front section by the street with comfy seating and large light windows and then a slightly smaller back section overlooking the even lower silver service restaurant. A couple of handpumps serving CW fair, namely Eagle IPA and Bombardier. A very nice décor and a bit of an upmarket feel , which makes it a nice place for a drink with the misses, but not suitable for a session with the lads. So pleasant enough place and the only negative I can say is that it suffers from not having an outside drinking area, which means the smokers stand outside on the narrow pavement congesting the front door like a load of nicotine bouncers.
