The White Bear - South Croydon

Beautiful old country pub from the 16th century. Beautiful atmosphere, wonderful friendly and efficient staff.. Had a wonderful lunch with my friend Angela, thanks Angela by the way!! Very recommended for every occasion. Nice food and drinks options.

Beautiful pub on winter night, cozy, beautiful fire and good music!

My cousin and I were looking for a dog-friendly pub near home and the white bear menu caught our eye. We came and the staff was super friendly. As soon as they sat in a beautiful remote part of the pub, I felt special. ..but as soon as we realized that they were sitting next to an open fireplace, I only heard take a seat and I'll get Lee to get rid of the fire. It quickly became a super romantic attitude at once, and I just wanted to share this moment with my other half!! But it's good... I have the next best

Visits Sunday in hope to get a table for 3 (including our Greyhound) Unfortunately they were fully booked and we were told that it is best to book a few days before Sunday lunch. But they managed to find us a table in the bar and set it up for lunch. I found the White Bear to be a super land pub. The employees, including the owner Lee and his wife Sian, could not be more friendly and attentive. While the other customers, where very friendly and open to the conversation. It felt like you put your local pub in your foot. In fact, I would love this pub as my place. The food itself was hearty meals, very pleasant about a good beer and glass of wine (the dog makes dry January) and was a lot of choice, including a nut roast. Everywhere if you are looking for a quintessential English country pub. With good food, friendly staff and patrons. Then the white bear is by far the best choice.

Proper . Old fashioned country pub with good beer, nooks and crannies to sit in but plenty of space, friendly staff, a fire in the fireplace, lots of seating outside for summer it's January at the mo pretty bleak. We weren't eating but the food looked great. We'll definitely be back. Fantastic.
