Our menus celebrate the season’s freshest ingredients, including wild garlic, Yorkshire rhubarb, and Nutbourne tomatoes. Each dish is carefully crafted with locally sourced produce, from slow-cooked lamb shoulder, mint & wild garlic mayo to Devil chocolate sponge & mousse cake.

Sunday’s at the White Bear are all about perfect roasts. We are talking plates piled high with succulent meats, vibrant vegetables, golden roast potatoes, Yorkshire puddings risen to perfection, and an abundance of rich, velvety gravy. For those who can’t resist a bit on the side enjoy creamy cauliflower cheese and delightful pigs in blankets. And to add a spicy twist to your Sunday, don’t miss our perfectly crafted Bloody Marys. Join us this Sunday for an indulgent roast.
We had a party of 10 people on a Saturday night and couldn’t have asked for better food or service. Everything was timed perfectly and tasted amazing and there was nothing our servers Lucy and Luke couldn’t do for us. Thank you for a fantastic night!
