Someone please open a White Horse near me!
We were in town for a business conference and decided to walk over from our hotel—what a pleasant surprise! My friend’s boyfriend, who was all the way in Illinois, actually found this spot for us while we were getting ready. I had no idea what we were walking into, but wow—how beautiful it is. Five stars to White Horse, and five stars to Cody (friend’s boyfriend MVP).
We started off with coffee, and let me tell you—the cups were generous and the coffee was just right. Not too strong, not too weak. Most places serve coffee that tastes like brown water, but this was actual quality. I almost ordered the duck (it looked amazing), but since it was my first meal of the day, I went with the grilled cheese. No regrets there—it was massive and incredible.
The server was totally on my wavelength. He asked if I wanted to add bacon—well yes sir, I absolutely do. And then… they grilled the bread in cheese. I had never even thought of that before, and now I can’t imagine making grilled cheese any other way. Game. Changed.
I also ordered a mimosa and explained how I like it (basically champagne with a whisper of juice). The server totally got it—he even brought the champagne and juice separately so I could mix it just how I like. I’m a girl, so obviously I loved having the control.
Aside from the food and drinks, the ambiance was perfect. The seats were comfy, the decor was upscale but welcoming, and everything just felt thoughtfully done.
Perfection.
