My wife and I have dined at the White Bear on numerous occasions and between lockdowns too. Special thanks must go to Rory, David and Franco. Always charming and nothing is ever too much trouble.

Managed to get a table for the festive menu before Tier 3 returned to Middlesex. As ever, the food and service met every expectation. One feels desperately sorry for such establishments that deliver, consistently, high quality hospitality. The management has worked hard to ensure maximum...More

My husband and I visited on our wedding anniversary. We had three courses each and found the food was absolutely stunning. The staff were very attentive and friendly and the ambience was Christmassy but not overdone. We had concerns due to covid but everything was...More

Last night I noticed the potions seemed rather small. My...More
