The White Hart Hotel – Hingham

Just the perfect pub with rooms! We need more stars! A proper pub with a wide range of drinks, customers, eating options and places to sit. Splendid rooms to stay in with reclaimed baths, radiators, taps etc and comfy modern beds, Dyson fans, kettles, crisp white sheets and dazzling white bathrobes and towels, super posh toiletries. We stayed in July and appreciated the outdoor seating options but the bars and dining rooms have glorious log burners for winter days. Two stand out things for us were firstly the staff who all genuinely seemed to like working there and went out of their way to be friendly, attentive and helpful. Secondly breakfast(!) a magnificent menu, perfectly cooked and served until 11.30. This place is the perfect antidote to the proliferation of corporate pub chains, it is run with attention to detail, love and a real focus on the customer. Set in an idyllic Norfolk village, It has jumped right to the top of our list of places to stay for a perfect break.

We had our wedding breakfast here and it was simply totally brilliant. Katie and the team ensured that the experience was exceptional. Jay was in charge on the day and nothing was too much trouble. Service was seamless and the food awesome. Thank you so much.

As an infrequent food and drink customer of The White Hart over many years I can report this hotel continues to have a good 'vibe' with a busy but not overpacked bar and customers of all ages. I visited for food and good beer accompanied by friends and a good evening was had by all. Staff were friendly and service efficient with no lengthy waits for food or drink. A star is dropped as I thought my main course was a little expensive for what I was served.

Been here a number of times to eat and have a drink. Always friendly but I feel that the menu has taken a turn for the worse. I had the beef stew with a great lump of gristle and my wife’s meal was less than ideal. The standard of food and prices don’t seem to match.

Old Inn and boutique hotel, centre of this historic village. Only visited for brunch after a 2.5 hr stroll around the network of footpaths in the area. Service was excellent foot satisfactory. Real ales available, muddy boots and dogs welcome.
