White Hart, St Ives

The White Hart is a former coaching inn and hotel. A well preserved flag stone floored central passageway, leads to where the stable block was located, part of which survives as the outside toilets. There are two rooms both with their own bar. The bar to the right of the central passageway is the oldest part of the pub. A large antique clock is a feature of this bar. Breakfast (eat-in or takeaway) served daily between 9am-2:45pm (9-10:30 am on Sunday). On Sunday roast lunches are served. Afternoon teas are served for which booking is essential. In addition to the rear outdoor area there are tables on the Market Square in front of the pub (on days when there is no town market) making more of a cafe culture. Accommodation is available with four affordable rooms.

HISTORY - The White Hart dates back to the late 1600's and along with the Royal Oak is probably one of the oldest pubs still trading in St Ives. The current building dates from the 18th century. Note the stone flagged passageway floor as you enter the pub.
