Fabulous hearty food, warm welcome and friendly staff. Would highly recommend. �
Great food,the boys tell me the beer is great.
Friendly vilaage pub well managed and gear service.
We live in the village but always enjoy a meal and a drink at the White Bear. Phil and Sue are fantastic along with their other staff especially Tara x
Fabulous country pub that always delivers. Warm and welcoming host/landlord, friendly and efficient staff and great food. Although my fab venison steak was a little over done for my liking and beyond the medium rare ordered. But great, and we will be back.
we booked last min on sat and well amazing. we had my little boy with us who is dairy free and I cannot thank the staff enough. they made sure he could have something to eat and instead of ice cream for pudding they provided a dairy free option. we where made to feel really welcome. perfect atmosphere. we had a lovely relaxed meal. stess free. thank you :)
Stayed there for a week. Lovely cottage. Wouldn’t wish for better hosts. The free welcome basket was a lovely touch as for the pub didn’t have any food but what I saw looked great. Looking at or next stay and looking nowhere other then here. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Had a fantastic celebration last night 16 very happy diners , thank you to the whole team at the white bear , will be back again and highly recommend
we were only in York for 3nts and we ate here for 2 of those nights!!
What can i say - plentiful choice, delicious home cooked dishes, excellent service, friendly polite staff and very good value for money!!

you'd be daft to give it a miss.
thankyou Sue, Phil & staff
see you again soon (we hope) ��
Lovely friendly pub. Food was homemade and good. Definitely will be returning. �����
Great Meals,Great Service, nothing is to much for them very friendly Family run pub
We stayed in a cottage owned by The White Bear and is located at the back of the pub. 100% excellent experience. The cottage is perfect and dog friendly. The owners could have done nothing more. They were perfect hosts. When we arrived there was a hamper waiting for us with lots of nice goodies in. The cottage has all the nice extras in. No trouble with being give washing powder dishwasher tablets. Supplied a brilliant hand drawn map of the village showing the local facilities and walks. We had 5 evening meals in the pub, all of which were perfect and priced well. The owners really could not have done any more. We had a brilliant holiday and will be booking a cottage to come and stay again.
Always a warm welcome here at the White Bear ...great food in comfortable surroundings and attentive staff .
You won't be disappointed

Brilliant meal and excellent service, highly recommended, the best meal of the week, many thanks
a very friendly local pub with good food and drink.
Finley had a great meal here after years of trying to get my husband to take me loved it thank you so much
Fabulous home cooked food. We were lucky to get the last table on Friday night. Impeccable service and super value. And it is our local for the next week. Locals even said hello as we walked in! Love it!
Fantastic food, lovely staff and great atmosphere
The people working there were just so kind. Valentine’s night, family of four with two under 8years, no booking, not a problem. They all went above and beyond; taking an interest in us, giving ideas as to where to visit, delicious food and drinks, great service, engaging with the children, just being so lovely. Even a lollipop at the end of the meal for the little ones. Such a lovely, chilled atmosphere with very kind staff. We would definitely recommend this place to anyone visiting the area but even more so if you have children with you. If we are lucky enough to be in the vicinity again, we know where to come.
Great pub ! The food our table ordered was a success with everybody, I had the Lamb Henry which was gorgeous and wouldn't hesitate to recommend. Choice of beers at the bar is good, the staff are very friendly and work hard to please and get meals out quickly, we look forward to our return sometime soon.
Just enjoyed my Sunday lunch with a party of 5 - 3 adults and two children aged 3 and 5. Recommend their poached haddock fillet and fruit crumble. Was also able to get a pint of bitter - their own beer.
Had a lovely walk to this place with my girls from a local campsite and it was so worthy of a good review. Every member of staff was friendly and attentive. The menu was brilliant in the choices it offered and very reasonably priced. There is also a lovely children's menu. They sell a plethora of gin which made me very happy! I recommend making a visit and I am sure the staff will go the extra mile for you as their customers. Will definitely visit again when in the area.
Excellent service and food. Lovely atmosphere. Very friendly staff.
Took my family of 6 for boxing day lunch and really enjoyed, the staff certainly looked after us.
Every one of us enjoyed the food which as usual was first class

Lovely pub!
The bar staff are lovely and welcoming.
Dog friendly and delicious food 😋
what a Gem … we were on holiday in the area and popped in for a evening meal, it was beautiful, proper food, cooked well, and presentation on the plate was A1, service was really lovely and really worth a visit but I imagine they fill up quickly so a call ahead would be advisable .
Great food, friendly staff and dog friendly, what more could a person want
Great Food and a friendly atmosphere created by the Landlord very good selection of hand pulled beers,Helmsley Black jacky stout was lovely.
What a wonderful place. The atmosphere is so cosy, food is delicious and staff are so kind! My partner and I stopped by on our way back from exploring the local forest with our little corgi and felt very very welcome. Amazing experience. We will certainly be coming back.
Oh my, food absolutely lush, had pork medallions very tasty, husband had chicken strips ratatouille enjoyed very much, service excellent, lovely friendly staff, Sue & Phil very lovely people, gave us a few ideas of places to visit in area, 1 being Thirsk with white horse. Definitely recommend food.

Good service and excellent food for our Anniversary meal. We were staying at Huby, the next village and we're definitely impressed with this place. If you are around, book in and give it a try.
