What Lauren Wilson likes about White Horse Tavern:
Not only was the food delicious and the venue a historic gem, our bartender, Zach, was top notch! Very friendly and gave us tons of recommendations for places to hit during our vacation here. View all feedback. What Zella Batz doesn't like about White Horse Tavern:
the white horse is certainly not what it was earlier. it was the place to go for a special dinner due to the ambientes, eating and service. I was there twice in the last weeks and both of them were disappointed. in any case it has lost its elegance; there is no more dress code to talk, eating is simply ok, and the service is moderate. I will not come back unless I hear some positive reviews. View all feedback.

read moreThe White Horse Tavern, the oldest tavern in America, once known for its elegance, has seen a decline according to recent visitors. Despite some disappointing experiences, such as undercooked Beef Wellington and rushed service, the historical ambiance and excellent food have kept patrons coming back year after year for special occasions like New Year's Eve and Valentine's Day. The staff, including servers like Isabella, have been praised for their exceptional service and the delicious offerings such as Beef Wellington, Lobster Bisque, and Steak Frites. Guests also appreciate the unique historical atmosphere and the opportunity to enjoy fresh local ingredients in dishes like Scottish duck egg and Lobster mac cheese. While some minor issues like service delays and music genre preferences were noted, the overall consensus is that the White Horse Tavern remains a top dining destination in Newport.
