The White Horse

The White Horse is a traditional village pub on the Salisbury side, tucked into Quidhampton with a customer car park and the kind of easy local feel that suits dog-walking visits out of the city. Dogs are welcome inside and food is served throughout the day – lunch runs from noon to 2:30pm and dinner from 6pm to 8:30pm, so your table supervisor can stay on duty whether you're stopping for a lunchtime pint or sitting down for an evening meal.

The pub opens at noon Monday to Saturday, closing at midnight most nights and 11pm on Sunday. There's a straightforward indoor welcome for a wet-pawed arrival and the welcome is genuinely dog-friendly rather than grudging tolerance.

It's a handy stop if you're heading out towards Wilton or looking for somewhere practical and unpretentious to settle in with a dog after a walk. No fuss, just a proper village pub that knows dogs and their people belong together.
