About The White Hart

Situated right by the church in Ludgvan on the outskirts of Penzance, The White Hart is a character-filled inn dating back to the fourteenth century. It’s the ideal Cornish pitstop between St Michaels Mount and Carbis Bay at St Ives, whether you’re grabbing a quick pint or enjoying a leisurely lunch or dinner. In summer you can watch the world go by from the picturesque beer garden whilst in winter log burners help ensure a warm and cosy welcome. The menu is packed with pub classics with a gastro twist with a popular roast on Sundays featuring succulent meats, seasonal veg and lashings of gravy. There’s a fully stocked bar too and Cornish folk music and trivia nights running throughout the year. A new patio was added for summer 2024.

We were recommend to The White Heart by the owners of our holiday cottage. We definitely was not disappointed. The real ales are brilliant along with a great food. The staff are welcoming and helpful. Would highly recommend to anyone.

The weather outside was awful but it was so cosy inside, just the weather for a Sunday Roast and this did not disappoint. We both had the turkey and the portions were generous with a big crisp light Yorkshire pudding on top. The Roast potatoes were delicious and there was plenty of tasty accompanying vegetables. The service was quick and friendly. So glad we visited. Thank you

Great old country pub, first time visited in a while. Good menu. The fish and New potatoes were delicious but veg was just a little over cooked. Staff very friendly. Only slight criticism was the number of dogs in such a small restaurant area. We had a massive labour poo sat right next to our table whose nose wss inches away from our plates and a Jack Russell under the next table who took an instant dislike to it. Quite daunting if you don't like dogs.

Great quality food (had the fish & chips) and lovely genuine Cornish pub atmosphere in traditional 'olde-worldy' pub. Good beer also. Would highly recommend.
Andy
Beautiful little Cornish pub which serves lovely food. Unfortunately it is ridiculously understaffed. During our visit there was just one young lady who had to cover the bar, take food orders, serve the food, collect the plates whilst continuing to cover the bar! No fault if her but we had to wait almost 1hr before our food arrived. The chef actually came to us and apologised for the slow service, explaining that the entire pub, including the kitchen was staffed by just 3 people. In short, lovely little pub, very friendly staff excellent food (stunning steaks) but very clearly the owners just want to maximise their profits and not pay for sufficient staff.
