Discover the true taste of Dartmoor

Great food is just what we do. Since 1775, the White Hart Hotel has welcomed weary travellers with warmth, smiles and platefuls of local flavour. The tradition continues today – but with a new look, new chefs and a renewed focus on high-quality, locally sourced ingredients.

Whether you're here for breakfast, lunch, afternoon tea or dinner, we can't wait to show you what 250 years of hospitality tastes like.

The White Hart Restaurant

Welcome to the new White Hart. We've treated our restaurant and bar to a £500,000 refurbishment, uplifting these once-tired spaces with tasteful modern décor and a brand-new culinary team. Discover fresh flavours, fresh approaches and a refreshingly friendly atmosphere.

Elegant afternoon tea spread with dainty sandwiches, warm scones, and indulgent pastries served on a tiered stand, perfect for a cosy, candlelit treat.

Afternoon Tea

A traditional Devonshire cream tea served in the heart of Dartmoor National Park. Does it get any better than that? Treat yourself to an afternoon of guilt-free indulgence, complete with home-baked fruit or plain scones with Devon jam and clotted cream.

Sunday Lunch

Our Sunday roasts are already legendary. Savour the flavour of crisp roast potatoes, succulent vegetables and moreish meats, served with stuffing and lashings of gravy. (Good news, vegetarians – the nut roast is just as delicious.)

The White Hart Bar

The White Hart Bar

The White Hart Hotel has been a free house since George III was on the throne. Now, under the custodianship of the Jackson family, our bar once again represents the beating heart of the local community. Expect local ales, top-tier spirits and a warm, cosy atmosphere – roaring fire included.

A selection of sandwiches, salads, wine, and cider served on a sunny outdoor table, perfect for a relaxed al fresco lunch in a garden setting.

Our Menus

This is the best of Devon on a plate. Our menus are all about delicious, hearty favourites cooked with care using the freshest local ingredients. Here in Dartmoor, we're spoiled for choice. So are you.

  Delicious afternoon tea which was allergen safe

Given 48 hours notice of my allergies, the hotel has just given me and my husband the best afternoon tea experience we’ve had in a long time.

  Excellent Dartmoor lunch. 5 stars

The White Hart has a new lunch menu that frankly elevates them to the next level...Mum had Tuna Niciose, which was as good as any restaurant in St. Tropez, I had loin of venison which melted in the mouth. These were followed by chocolate delice with raspberry sorbet, and a peach tarte tatin.

Bravo to the team. Food and service was first class.

  Solo trip

This is a great escape for a couple of hours , the management are extremely friendly. A great selection of beers with both a locals and lounge bar. Food is good too, well worth a visit if you’re in Moretonhampstead. Give it a try, you won’t regret it

  Cream Tea

We called in for a cream tea, it was excellent, as was the service and decor, the new management team really have pushed the boat out on taste as it's beautifully furnished and attention to detail is so good. We will definitely call again.
