The White Hart Inn, Bargate

Of course, it was the pork pies that lured us in but we found it to be a delightful pub with fairly recently refurbished surroundings, a good range of beers and the pies in their own display case. That said, the range of pies was not as extensive as that of The Holly Bush at Makeney, but they were substantial, meaty and accompanied by Colman's mustard, delicious. There was more fodder on offer too - free, courtesy of a skittles match taking place that evening. The beers were from several breweries (Hardy Hansons, Morlands, Bass and others) and the beer was well-kept and refreshing. Not quite the style, beer range or quirky interior of the nearby Dead Poet's, Holbrook, but it did have pies!
