"The choice of craft lagers and beers are amazing, even for me, I don't like all those hoppy, heavy lagers, here there is an array of choice to suit everyone."

“The White Hart Inn sits in a truly remarkable spot, mere steps from Wells Cathedral, and the rooms, though spread across the historic buildings, offer a quiet comfort with genuinely welcoming staff. Breakfast here is a highlight, a generous spread that sets you up perfectly for exploring the town's charms, and the pub itself hums with a vibrant, local energy, particularly around its impressive selection of cask ales.”
