W:www.thewhb.co.uk We strongly believe that the food should speak for itself.

The White Hart is an independent public house set in the heart of the beautiful Sussex countryside within easy reach of many local tourist attractions such as Buxted Park and The Ashdown Forest. The recently refurbished restaurant and bar combines clean open plan design with some of the traditional features of an old English Public House, creating a relaxed yet vibrant atmosphere. Along with the c

lassic British pub bar & restaurant there is the conservatory restaurant, perfectly suited for both social and business gatherings. In the warmer months, the country garden is open for diners, drinkers and events. Here at The White Hart all the simple, classic dishes that you know and love are created using the best quality, locally sourced, seasonal ingredients and presented to you 'perfectly' all for a reasonable price. What more can you ask? Well... If you are in the mood for something a bit different, a little bit special… We take our steaks very seriously indeed. We Dry Age our beef in house to achieve a depth of flavour that is unsurpassed by any average steak. We have recently introduced a full Steakhouse Menu to complement our classic pub dishes. This menu includes well known favourites such as Sirloin, Fillet, Rump and our In-House 52 day Dry Aged Rib Eye Steak along with a few unsung heroes of the steak world like our Flat Iron Steak which is full of character and the Hanger Steak which has a flavour unlike any other cut that needs to be experienced to be believed. Our dedicated team will go above and beyond to ensure that you have the best dining experience possible.

✨ Meet the Team Monday: Ric ✨

This week, our spotlight falls on Ric — our incredible Head Chef and the creative mind behind every delicious dish on The White Hart menus!

Ric’s journey in hospitality began remarkably early, at just 14 years old, starting out as a KP. From those early days, he worked his way up through the ranks, honing his craft and building experience across a variety of different venues, until he earned his place leading our kitchen team.
When we asked Ric what first drew him to a career as a chef, he gave us his classic, cheeky reply: “I wanted to learn how to cook… mainly to impress the ladies!” 😂
Jokes aside, Ric’s passion, skill, and dedication shine through in everything he creates. Every menu is crafted with care, quality, and real attention to detail — and we are so proud to have him leading our kitchen and delivering such wonderful food for you all to enjoy.
Here are a few questions we ask Ric for you to get to know him a bit better

Position; Head Chef
Length of Service; 10+ years
Hobbies; Football & Fish keeping
Favourite Dish; The whole menu (if I don’t like it, it doesn’t reach our menu)
Favourite Drink; Modelo
Interesting Fact; I have a pet blue lobster called Larry
Dream Job; CEO of Apple
Common Question; Do you know how to do this in the cellar?

Next time you dine with us, raise a glass to Ric and his team for all the hard work that goes into every plate we serve!

✨ Meet the Team Monday: Ben ✨

This week, our spotlight shines on Ben, a key part of the team here at The White Hart!
Ben’s journey in hospitality began early, at just 15 years old, working as a KP at IS. By 18, he had discovered his true passion for mixology and dove headfirst into the world of cocktails. As he grew, so did his skills—by 24, he had developed a deep love and appreciation for great food, broadening his expertise across every part of the business.

Today, Ben’s focus is simple but meaningful: he takes immense pride in seeing our customers enjoy every little detail we’ve worked so hard to put in place. From the welcome you receive, to the drinks we pour and the food we serve, Ben is dedicated to making sure The White Hart remains the warm, welcoming, and high-quality venue we all love.
We asked Ben a few questions for you to get to know him….
