The Sweffling White Horse

The Sweffling White Horse A traditional village alehouse, serving an ever-changing range of locally brewed real ales
(1)

A 200 year-old pub, recently refurbished to form a traditional cosy village alehouse. The pub is entirely heated by wood - having a wood-fired range in the public bar (in which pies are heated during the winter) and a large woodburner in the lounge bar. The pub specialises in local produce, offering an ever-changing range of locally brewed real ale - served straight from the cask. Also available is a selection of locally made spirits, local ciders and soft drinks. Fairtrade and/or organic spirits are also available, as well as a small selection of locally made pies and pasties. A selection of traditional pub games, including bar billiards, darts and a few others are also available.

This September, we’re throwing open the doors for our very first ever B**r Festival, and we’re planning a whole weekend of good b**r, good food, live music and good company. From Friday 18th to Sunday 20th September, come along and settle in for a chilled-out celebration of all things b**r and c***r. Bring your friends, bring the family, pull up a chair and make an afternoon, evening.....or whole weekend of it!

There’ll be lashings of b**r and c***r to work your way through, with live music across the weekend to keep things suitably lively. And, because b**r festivals are always better with something tasty to eat, we’ve got some excellent local food lined up too.

Friday evening: Mylo’s Pizza will be serving up their fabulous pizzas.
Saturday evening: Wild Thing Gourmet Burgers will be joining us with their brilliant burgers, including vegetarian and vegan options.
Sunday: Big Pan Paelle Ian their paella chef, has been cooking delicious paellas for over 15 years and has served his speciality to 100s of weddings, events, corporate lunches and parties.

Friday from 8pm: Silmor
Saturday from 4pm: Richard Sherwood
Saturday from 8pm: Sunset Bamboo
Sunday from 2pm: Open Mic

The pub with no bar 🍺

We’re quirky in lots of ways… and one of the most noticeable is that there’s no bar at the Sweffling White Horse.

Just a door into the tap room and a member of the team sitting beside it, waiting to pour you a drink.

It really is a bit like walking into someone’s living room. It might feel strange at first, but we find it makes things more welcoming, more relaxed and, well, more like a proper community pub.

Want to discover what else makes us quirky? Pop in, pull up a chair and settle in.

It won’t take you long to discover the unique magic of the Sweffling Community Pub.
