ザ ホワイト ベアー(The White Bear)

Lovely Sunday Roast!We ordered the beef and were impressed by the quality of the meat and as usual the very generous portions!Squeezed in a dessert which was equally delicious as was the coffee.Staff helpful and friendly.Looking forward to our next visit!

The food has gone downhill since Emma left. Overcooked chicken which was difficult to cut. Cold chips and cold plates. Manky salad that was days old. Emma's was always very fresh. Beer was good hence the two stars. The lady behind the bar was very good and organised a refund on one meal

We booked into the White Bear as visiting family in Shipston. . We normally stay in another hotel but no availability Our room was very clean and tidy and very cosy . Room 10 . tripped on the step leaving the room but no damage done .The shower was lovely with plenty of hot water etc We really just needed somewhere to sleep and it was perfect . The staff were very friendly and a great selection of drinks . We asked if we could take breakfast with us ( in a sandwich ) this was no problem at all .The lady serving breakfast was very friendly and helpful on a fine point it could definitely do with a lick of paint and hallway stairs and carpets could do with a refresh but for £100 b & b and free parking for 2 of us it was fabulous. We will definitely stay again Thank you

We had a lovely stay in this quaint little pub. Lovely and clean in the rooms. Right in centre of village with free parking Breakfast was really good and served by a very friendly lady. We had one evening meal and food was 100%. Drinks reasonably priced too. Thoroughly recommend

Well this place has the worst landlady I have ever come across and I travel all around the uk for work. There’s nothing nice to say about this venue at all the food and beer is terrible and to top it off she has a 16 year old apprentice running the kitchen unsupervised with no head she’d in the building when I was there on the evening of the 4-10-2023.. avoid at all costs.

So, I knew I was booking into a pub in a busy town so expected some noise. Unfortunately we were in room 10, which backed onto the rear smoking area which meant that, with the window open, a constant smell of cigarettes prevailed. It also seemed to be the staff meeting area so all conversations could be heard and at 0130 we had to lean out of the window and ask people to shut up as we couldn’t sleep. Same in the morning when they gathered at 7….. the room has no warning about a step directly behind the door and I have a bigger iPad than the television. It was clean though. Breakfast usual style. Poached eggs were great, even with the additional hair…..I only paid £100 so should I manage my expectations? Even only paying this, I wouldn’t expect to be able to smell cigarettes and be subjected to noise after midnight. Won’t stay here again.

Fantastic dog-friendly hotel. Our dog can be afraid of stairs and when we called before the stay, Millie was incredibly understanding and recorded a video of the stairs so we could assess. This was really thoughtful and appreciated. Above and beyond expectations. Thank you!

Everything we touched either broke or fell off the wall!

Great dog friendly hotel. Brilliant area and nice river walk for dogs. Recommend this area highly. Close to the Wolds and lovely affluent area
