    We had an outstanding experience today at The White Horse! From the minute we arrived the staff were nothing but helpful and kind! We had the sea food platter with tempura oysters which was recommended by our waiter, as we weren't keen on normal oysters and they were AMAZING along with the rest of the food! We will defiantly be back as we could not fault the service and standard of food!

    Outstanding meal, Chowder all locally sourced, tenderloin pork belly cooked to perfection and the mille feuille crowned a great meal. Service very attentive. Selection of wines and spirits added a great compliment to the meal, before, during and after.

    We couldn’t fault anything about our visit to the White Horse. The food was second to none, the ambience beautiful and the staff very attentive and friendly. We will return hopefully in the summer to witness the beauty of the landscape and the amazing sunsets.

    Fantastic restaurant, this is one of our favourite restaurants in North Norfolk. We return to the restaurant year after year because we love the seafood so much. In fact we decided to retire to north Norfolk as this was our summer vacation place, the ‘White Horse’ is a restaurant we enjoy and love visiting, the food and service never disappoints. I love the Oysters and seafood selections especially the fruits de mer. Excellent restaurant 10/10. Thank you.

    A lovely Valentines Day lunch. Very,very good service as always. Table with a great view over the marshes. No Bacardi stocked so my wife chose water. The Brancaster Brewery Oystercatcher was a lovely brew! We had oysters first then mussels then a pud. Oysters good but not as big or well presented as previous visits to be rated excellent. Mussels were also good but not excellent. Good quantity and fries kindly substituted for focaccia but size and cookedness (?) of the mussels varied. Excellent effort for a busy Valentines Day lunch service!!! Local real ale at £5/pint and a service charge of 10% seemed very reasonable indeed.

    From the moment we attended our experience was perfect. I'd advised of my husband's birthday on booking, and the staff treated him with excellence. Highly recommend. Food, service, venue, all outstanding

    Had a great lunch with a gorgeous view and friendly service Deducted a point as our mains were not perfect, my prawns were overcooked and the sauce on the chicken lacked flavour, but starters and desserts were delicious and we hope to return soon for more

    So glad we found this, after a bit of a bad start to my Birthday weekend this did not disappoint. If you like great seafood this is a must, whilst we were eating we booked to come back and stay !!
