The White Hart, Hull

Blue Scrumpy left this review about The White Hart

With just enough time to try 2 further new pubs in Hull before getting the last train of the night back to London, I headed to the White Hart. Although, I ended stopping here a little longer than expected and it turned out to be my last of the night.

You enter into a fairly small front bar with an impressive curved bar in front of you. Beyond that is a larger room with a pool table. The pool table was being played by a couple of lads, whilst the only other customers were an elderly couple in the front bar, where I chose to sit.

The young barmaid was friendly. Beers are listed on a blackboard to the side of the bar. The 4 real ales were Rudgate Ruby Mild & Odin's Gold, Great Newsome Holly Blue & Brew York Make It Nectaron. I didn't initially notice the cider list, but the varied selection was Luke's Vintage Draught, Harry's No. 8, Pilton Labyrinth & Temple Somerset Redstreak. Craft beers were Turning Point Tangled Up In Blue, Verdant Don't Tell Gus & Optical Allusion, Vocation Big Coat & New Bristol Pastel de Nata Stout.

Both the Make It Nectaron ale and the Somerset Redstreak cider I tried were in good condition and I was left wondering how I had not visited this fantastic pub before. Until arriving here, I'd assumed that the Hop & Vine would be my favourite pub of the day, but I think the White Hart just pips it. It was just a shame that there weren't more people in.
