White Hart, Aldeburgh

Improve This Listing

Plenty of nautical memorabilia adorn this single wood panelled bar which used to be the public reading room.

Next door to the town's renowned fish and chip shop and only a few yards from the beach, it is popular with both tourists and many locals.

Occasional music and basic food options, such as sandwiches.

Filled rolls are available behind the bar and in the summer there is a pizzeria in the garden 12:00 to 21:00.

Asset of Community Value

In nearby Aldeburgh the most authentic pub is the White Hart. Built in 1898 next door to the original late 18th century pub (possibly originally as a sailors reading room?) - the old pub is now the living accommodation. It has one completely wood panelled room; the bar counter was shortened by some two feet in the early 1980s and has a modern pot shelf above. In the early 1980s a wall was removed which separated the off sales on the left - the door is now the left hand window. The fireplace is a recent import - previously a door to the street occuied this space. There was a tiny snug at the rear which is now the ladies toilet.
