May 2026 - the pub reopened at the end of May (bank holiday weekend) as The Fleet Tavern. It has been reported that up to 4 cask beers will be served - we shall see. Downstairs loos have also been added to the pub. From The Ham & High, "The original ceiling tiles, marble fireplace, and mahogany bar with etched glass details have been retained - although the bar has been moved 90 degrees and positioned towards the back of the large light-filled room."

Jan 2026 - closed again! A Camra member reports "This pub closed at the beginning of January."

Nov 2024 reported as reopening in time for Christmas but only temporarily as Star Pubs seek a permanent operator in 2025. This pub reopened on 16th January and it reverted to its original name - the White Horse but has now changed again to South End Green Social. Hours are 12 to 11 every day. No real ale as yet.

This pub was boarded up shortly after 20th March 2020. This is how it was -

After being closed for around a year, now re-opened as Cork & Bottle and a recent visit shows both 2 handpumps and a wall of 8 keg taps so, unlike some of their other operations, this will not be just a a wine bar. (see below).

From Propel

The Gresham Collective is to open its third Cork & Bottle wine bar, in Hampstead. The company is opening the venue in Fleet Road after taking over the former The White Horse pub. It will feature more than 300 bottles of wine while there will also be an outside garden.

This pub was rebuilt in its current form in 1904. An a attractive triangular corner pub, with long pedigree, dating back to 1721, and including customers such as George Orwell, who worked at a bookshop opposite, and Joe Orton. Interior decoration is listed by CAMRA as an historic pub interior of regional importance, including fine oak bar panelling, decorative ceiling, stained glass and floor tiles. Decorative fireplaces, sconces, old prints, Victorian-style lampshades, chandeliers and rococo mirrors lend an elegant ambience to the wooden tables and chairs, interspersed with upholstered furniture. There is a small garden (or outside area with tables and chairs), rest rooms in basement. A neighbourhood gem. Nearest Tube station: Belsize Park.
