I arrived here on a Friday afternoon in thickening snow. Parking at the side and the rear of the pub requires registering your vehicle at the bar. Also at the rear of the pub are several rooms for accommodation.
The interior feels much more traditional with low beamed ceilings and a number of pillars creating individual drinking areas.
Service wasn't the quickest with the barmaid choosing to serve people she knew first rather than myself who had been waiting at the bar longer.
As with all pubs in Hook, the real ale choice was uninspiring with just London Pride & The Rev James available. However, it was also the only pub with real cider in the village. So, I opted for Weston's Family Reserve from a box in the fridge. CAMRA discounts are offered here, but not on real cider.
TVs were showing Sky Sports News, whilst I sat next to a stained glass window which seemed to have some history behind it. Probably just about the pick of Hook's hostelries.

An olde-worlde sort of place in M&B's Innkeepers Lodge group, with a hotel part behind. The pub section has a nice rambling interior with lots of beams, brick and glasswork, and a good collection of pump clips arranged round the ceiling. Sadly this was just teasing and, in mid-Covid, only Doom Bar was on offer and they were having some problems serving it "because the gas is wrong"?? They did however apologise for not having their usual range of guest ales, so I will give them the benefit of the doubt. It felt a bit commercialised but has the potential to be a good pub.

Old Boots left this review about The White Hart Hotel
An erstwhile coaching inn on the main London to the South West road and still retaining a great deal of charm with low ceilinged darkness inside providing a wealth of cosy corners, nooks and crannies. It's a long thin bar with the counter at the back, inglenook fireplace at one end and a more airy dining room at the other. The counter snakes along and is home to six handpumps with regular Doombar and during mid-week a single guest from one of the smaller breweries, the other pumps with clips had little blackboards telling us the beer was coming next or just settling in the cellar. The beer quality could not be faulted and the service was mainly pretty good although the levels in the glasses varied alarmingly from the typical thin southern scummy layer to a deep northern head requiring a substantial top up. GBG listed and I'm with CAMRA and Moby Duck on this one.
