This review is for the restaurant (taproom). The taproom is very cozy with the fireplace. Friendly staff and bartenders. Food is consistently delicious. Can't wait for warmer weather to sit out on the porch. Highly recommend.Food & drinks: Delicious food and drinks.

The room was clean and cozy. The bartender is one of the best in the business, and all staff are accommodating and polite. Nice twists on a few classics with the menu.

It had been a decade and a half since I was at the White Hart so I was curious to see the reopened Inn under it's new ownership. Tap room hasn't changed, same great atmosphere - this place still has charm! Unfortunately the new dining room was too bright and sparse, could use more privacy and comfortable seating - maybe some folding screens, softer lighting and some good classic jazz? The food ranged from average to amazing - all well presented. The service was prompt, professional and pleasant - excellent.

ORIGIN: Hart is an old English word for a mature male deer, and a white hart is prominently represented in English folklore. The White Hart itself has some history. The building dates back to 1806, with use as an inn soon thereafter. LOCATION: The White Hart is located in the center of Salisbury, as for centuries, a great place to stop when crossing New England. The town and its surroundings are also worthy of being the destination, as there are many natural attractions, as well as cultural institutions in the vicinity. CONCEPT: Today the White Hart welcomes travelers and local residents alike, with sixteen rooms, two restaurants, a wide porch, and ballroom. There is something for everyone. EXPERIENCE: The White Hart has artwork scattered across the building. As I waited for a garden fundraiser and talk to begin, I walked through the entrance floor and marveled at the variety and number of prints on the walls. A reception was arranged in the bar/lounge area next to the ballroom. Many thoughtful details could be found in the cheese board display. Most unique and striking was the use of a vase of forsythia branches to cast dappled light on the table.

Lovely Inn with exceptional dining options. Love visiting in the summer. This was our first visited in the winter and really loved the fireplaces.

Review of Restaurant onlyMy wife and I have dined at The White Hart three or four times over the last couple of years and the experience just gets better and better. Last night, we sat in the taproom, as the lucky guests of friends. Every dish showed an exemplary combination of sound, exciting conception and flawless technique. I am a French-trained chef, and I can assure you there is no better cook anywhere in the area. This gentleman deserves much more recognition, and all of his loyal following, among which we number ourselves and other friends. The service and ambiance are equally topnotch, they make great cocktails, and choose excellent wine. The setting is beautiful. What more could you ask for?Food & drinks: Truly excellent dining experience

We’ve been coming to this amazing inn every year for 10 years now. The rooms, the staff, the food, the common spaces — every single detail is absolutely perfect. I’m so grateful for all the family memories we’ve made here over the years.

On the outside they have “nice” pictures, but their service was “fake” and their room dirty with half attempts to cover the awful smell.

Absolutely terrible. Management needs to do a serious investigation into their employees, the place is filthy, bugs everywhere.

Love the staff here, but the dinner menu could use some additions. They never have specials either. Also, don't try to reinvent fried chicken. I love hot honey, but on chicken it's to heavy. Just make classic, soul fulfilling fried chicken with regular mash, a biscuit or Cole slaw. It also has to be hot! Steak is often tough. The menu is too limited. Again, staff is very nice!

We've stayed in the White Hart before, and have always loved the ambiance, rooms, and food. However this time was so disappointing. We stayed in room 32, which was a lower level King bed suite in the separate cottage. The room itself was lovely. However, I would never stay here again. Starting in the early evening, and then again first thing in the morning, every single footstep in the upstairs room could be heard as though it was a herd of elephants. We finally called the front desk, who tried to help, and when the upstairs guests did not answer their phone, the staff member came over to knock on their door. They did have children who must have been constantly in motion, although the guests denied it. They may not have realized that in such an old buidling, every step can be heard below, and even when told, did not think it appropriate to try and restrain their children. While the hotel staff expressed their apologies (in the evening, and again when I mentioned it at checkout), nothing was done. Recognizing that guest behavior is out of the control of management, these upper floor rooms should not allow young children (unless some sort of sound proofing is added). These rooms are not inexpensive, and for a special evening away, we were sorely disappointed. Update: Mgmt did recognize our suboptimal experience and refunded us a portion of our stay, which was the appropriate response for an inn of their quality.

We had dinner in the Tap Room, found a place at the bar…and it was divine! First, the bartender made me a surprise drink …delicious to say, and then dinner arrived…we shared the burger and sprouts…it was soooo good! Dessert made its way and that too was outstanding….all great! Must go! We went back the next night and it was just as good!
