The White Hart is located in arguably
the culinary capital of Surrey.
Chobham is a beautiful village and
one of its oldest buildings dating
back to the 1500s adds to the character.
We chose to review dinner here because
many of you have asked us "Have you tried
eating here since its renovation and name
change?"
“Rustic charm combined with a local
friendly feel and excellent food
means that this pub and restaurant
should be a must visit.”
The bar area has been moved and
restaurant changed but with a real fire and
prominent bar area as you walk in,a more
homely and rustic pub charm is instantly felt.
We chose to book a table in the charming
restaurant but did manage to enjoy a
refreshing and unique Gin prior to our meal.
A gin from Menorca made from grapes, no
less!
ruth and I dined on a Saturday evening and
enjoyed olives before descending on Scallops
with a little twist, and a Salmon and Crab
starter. The healthy portions, which were
nicely presented, carried lovely flavours.
Service was knowledgeable and very
pleasant as we discussed Surrey walks and
even discussed ‘The voice’ during service.
For mains, ruth chose Sea Bream and I
opted for Pan-Fried Lamb. Both courses were
served piping hot and with an abundance of
seasonal vegetables.
Many restaurants choose now to offer
vegetables as an additional side order, so this
was a pleasant and most welcome change.
The fish mains was succulent and served
with a medley of Mediterranean vegetables
whilst the lamb served pink, with a pesto
crust dominated dauphinois potatoes, kale
and julienne carrots perfectly.
A new zealand Sauvignon washed down
our meals and a busy restaurant was
atmospheric without being too noisy or
obtrusive.
Our puddings were Cheesecake and the
obligatory Sticky Toffee Pudding. Simple and
uninspired you may think, but taste and a little
modern twist meant we really enjoyed our
sugar rush.
In answer to our readers who asked us
about The White Hart, we heartily
recommend a visit here, so much so, we are
booking for when family visit us during the
coming months.
Without doubt the staff and surroundings
are lovely and match perfectly the charming
Chobham ambience and class, that this
village has.
