The White Horse, Dover
Intrigued by a rather unpleasant review of a pub I know very well (from eastkent on 25th March 2010), I checked out other reviews of his and found a glowing report of The Eight Bells in Dover. This, to me, speaks volumes about the kind of drinker Mr E Kent must be - how one could possibly prefer the plastic surroundings of a Wetherspoons chain pub against a pub that has existed since 1345 and is easily the most charismatic hostelry in the town, supported by tourists and locals alike in their droves?
The White Horse is just what one would hope for in a pub that puts its customers first - real beer beautifully kept, good food, a warm welcome and no jukebox!!! A sun-trap of a beer garden, dog-friendly and above all people friendly; the amount of people who use the pub on a regular basis bears ample testament to the fact that this pub is well run on the right lines. Methinks the rather personal and uncharitable comments made against the ladies that run this excellent establishment are grossly unfair and that personal comments do not merit space on a public website.
If, like me, you like real whisky, you'll be pleased to know that the landlady stocks a couple of really good malts - for those that like battery acid, Glenfiddich is available, but (most pleasing of all) the king of malt whisky, Highland Park, is always available. The White Horse Inn really is worth a visit; go once, try not to find personal insult, and I guarantee you'll go again.
