Why it's worth checking out
The White Horse sits on Crown Street in Surry Hills, one of Sydney's most characterful and food-and-drink-loving inner-city suburbs. A much-loved restaurant and pub, it's a genuine local fixture — combining quality food with a good drinks offering and a relaxed, characterful atmosphere, the kind of accomplished, versatile spot that's become a real favourite in lively Surry Hills.
The appeal is that combination of quality food, a good drinks-and-cocktail offering and a relaxed, characterful setting in a great Surry Hills location, ideal for a relaxed meal, drinks and a feed, a date or a sociable night out. A spot that's nailed both its food and its atmosphere really stands out in a suburb full of good options, and the White Horse has clearly won over a loyal following.
With a 4.7 rating from more than 350 reviews, it's clearly delighting its guests. Menus, drinks lists, opening hours and pricing change with the seasons, and a popular spot fills up over weekends, so it's worth checking current details and booking directly where needed before you go — particularly for a weekend, a group or a table at a peak time in Surry Hills.
