Description
Tumble down the rabbit hole and discover Guildford’s riverside gem - The White House.
Perched gracefully on the banks of the River Wey, this elegant yet cosy pub is said to overlook the very waters that supposedly inspired Lewis Carroll's Alice through the Looking Glass. Step through the doors and you’ll find a space that feels both timeless and full of character - think glowing fireplaces, wooden floors, and an inviting buzz that makes every visit feel like an escape from the everyday.
Outside, the riverside terrace is the real show-stopper. On sunny days, it’s the perfect spot to sip a chilled glass of rosé or a pint of Fuller’s Frontier while watching the river drift by - you might even half-expect the White Rabbit to hop past. Inside, the menu takes centre stage, serving up seasonally inspired British dishes made with care: from hearty classics to lighter plates that pair perfectly with a great glass of wine.
Whether you’re joining for a lazy Sunday roast, a romantic dinner by the river, or a festive Christmas gathering, The White House promises an experience that’s charming, atmospheric and unmistakably Guildford.
Don’t be late for this very important date - book your table now and see why The White House is one of Guildford’s most enchanting riverside pubs.
