The White Hart, Newhaven

Steve C left this review about The White Hart

After my disappointing non-visit in February last year I decided to give the White Hart another go. Thankfully there were no fleeing staff and I was served promptly even though the pub was busy with people watching football. This place is Newhaven’s sports pub with Sky Sports that is shown on the plasma screens that are found throughout this L shaped pub. There are two dartboards, a jukebox and to the left of the bar is a pool table. Harvey’s Best was available from the lone hand pump, but everyone seemed to be drinking the generic lager. Cheap pub grub is served throughout the day and there is a late license until midnight on Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays. Being the only real pub that shows Sky Sports there was an interesting mix of people. These ranged from normal law abiding citizens to others who I would steer well clear of.


Being a fan of live sport I would use this place to watch the odd football match if I lived locally, but I wouldn’t become a regular as there are better pubs in Newhaven.

I approached the White Hart at 22:15 last night (Monday) and I was just about to push the door open when the barmaid came rushing out and locked up. She told me that it was too quiet before running to a waiting car and speeding off. Maybe when I’m next in Newhaven I will make this pub my first point of call to make sure I get a drink.
