JULY 2015 Top 25 Most Gorgeous & Delicious Outdoor Dining Spots in Connecticut BY CONNECTICUT MAGAZINE STAFF The White Horse Country Pub, Washington One of our favorite things about The White Horse—a classic British pub that’s a snug and stylish home for hearty comfort food—are the impressive artifacts on display throughout, ranging from a sheet from the first newspaper ever published in England (with an ad for a lost dog) to a vintage Indian motorcycle behind the bar and a guitar signed by members of the Rolling Stones.
In the winter, it’s a treat to enjoy the great burgers or favorite dishes like the steakhouse shepherd’s pie and chicken pot pie by the fire, and while the pub is equally welcoming in the summer, insiders know to score a table outside in the back, where you can dine right by the East Aspetuck River and feel like you’re in the countryside of England.
