White Horse Inn [Nellies] (Sam Smith’s)

Very atmospheric, exposed stone/brick, dark, coal fire etc, it really is like stepping back in time. Great selection of Samuel Smith. We didn't see anything ourselves, but apparently the locals will shout at you in you're caught on your phone / tech!

Very atmospheric place with very good prices

Visited 14/12/2018. I can only echo the two earlier reviews. This pub has a unique character, with its labyrinth of rooms, gas lights and coal fires. I ended up in a room which appeared to have been a kitchen in a previous life, with the range still being used to heat it. There is a more modern pool room to the rear. I was only charged £2.00 for my pint of OBB, so it must have been happy hour. Really worth seeking out.

Has to be done. Bucket list. Sam Smiths OBB £ 2.06 a pint. Not £ 2.10 or even £ 2.05 but £ 2.06. All of their other beers too. An excuse to encamp for a weekend and tick. Seven rooms maybe? And corridors. Gaslight. Occasionally painted, over the years. Nothing repeats itself. A cultural icon often mistaken for mere pub. Clean, mind.

Visited April 2017, Yorkshire tour. - Probably the most atmospheric pub I’ve ever had the pleasure to visit & dwell in, not just in the UK. Centrally located in the last pretty & quaint town before the giant Zeebrugge that is Hull. How is this not on the RB map? - Samuel Smith owned from the 12+ cask and tap handles down to the lemonade and the pork scratchings. The tripadvisor tags say it all in a nutshell: original gaslighting, multiple quirky rooms and parlours, nooks & crannies, popular with locals and passers-by alike + no wowmen&children allowed at the bar, area aka "a step back in time". The heat emanating from the gaslights truly is something special. Strike up conversation with relaxed locals in each new room and parlour. You could easily spend a full day in its maze of parlours, wile and read away the hours as you work your way through the taps by halfpints, until a quiz or reading comes along. The oak cask bitter is dispensed from actual oak and tastes lively and earthy, like the missing link between Zoigl and lambiek... Glad our B&B host pointed me here before continuing our misadventures down to Hull and back.
