About This Pub
Ah, the White House in Holytown – it's one of those pubs that really captures that authentic Irish feel, you know? From what I've gathered from the buzz around it, it's a fantastic spot for soaking up the atmosphere, especially if you're there for a big match; the energy is infectious and makes for a memorable night out. The staff come across as genuinely welcoming, and they've got a good range of drinks and food options that hit the spot for a laid-back evening with mates. But, let's be straight, it's not all roses – there are a few tales of less than stellar experiences, like dodgy toilets that could do with some TLC, and the odd run-in with staff who might not be in the best mood. Still, with such a strong overall feel from the crowd, I'd say it's worth popping in if you're nearby, just go in with your eyes open and you'll likely have a cracking time.

The White House Pub in Holytown offers a cozy ambiance and friendly service. With its diverse menu and well-stocked bar, it's a great spot for a casual meal or drinks with friends. Definitely worth a visit!
By far the worst pub I’ve walked into! It smelt of cannabis upon arrival. Went to use toilet before getting a few pints and was no lock on the cubicle door. A minute later the bar owner was trying to open it saying it’s no a public toilet mate being really cheeky and rude. 2 minutes after one of the guys at the pub opened the cubicle door when I was still sitting on the toilet. He said that id been sat there for 30 mins (was only 3 minutes) and the bar owner was getting worried about me. I was leaving after using the toilet and the bar owner was raising her voice saying it’s no public toilets and to get a drink before I used it. She honestly made me feel I was so unwelcome. I said to her that I was actually going to get a few drinks after I had finished using the toilet but because of how rude she was, I left it. Thought this was going to be a really good pub as it’s a Celtic pub and I’m a Celtic fan but obviously I was wrong.
I'd love to be really negative about this pub because I am a Rangers fan. It looks a bit dangerous from the outside, like a lot of pubs near junctions, but inside it is small but has a real authentic feel. I like passion and think everyone should have the right to enjoy what they are into. If I have any Celtic-supporting friends over, I'd recommend they visit this pub. Looks well-run.
