Operator: Shepherd Neame
86 Horseferry Road, Westminster, London, SW1P 2EE (View on Google Map)

Originally built c1815 and called the White Horse until 1832 (it was a watering-hole for horses). Rebuilt in the 1894 by the New Westminster brewery, whose premises were situated a short distance away in Earl Street. Now a welcoming single-bar pub, with a fine, long wooden bar and bar back.

Last refurbed in summer 2025, the bar area now has plush velvet and leather banquettes and intimate booths, framed by handmade stained-glass screens. Antique lighting and hand-painted traditional wall coverings complement the decor.

The food menu includes bar snacks, sandwiches, weekend brunch, and main-menu pub favourites. Four handpumps provide at least three ales from the Shepherd Neame range.
