  1. Hosting our private event at one of west village bars White Horse was an absolute delight from start to finish. The rustic charm of the venue provided the perfect backdrop for our celebration, and the attention to detail from the staff was impeccable. From the initial planning stages to the execution of the event, the team at White Horse Tavern demonstrated professionalism and a genuine commitment to ensuring our gathering was not just an event but a memorable experience for everyone involved. The customizable menu options allowed us to tailor the culinary experience to our preferences, and the attentive staff went above and beyond to accommodate our every need. Our guests were not only impressed by the inviting ambiance but also by the seamless coordination and hospitality displayed by the White Horse Tavern team. Without a doubt, we highly recommend this venue for anyone looking to host a private event with a perfect blend of charm, versatility, and outstanding service.
