Splendid, authentic and vivid pub. This pub has become a guarantee for me and I can’t believe it’s in one of the most touristic places in London, Covent Garden. You must try their pies, all of them are exquisite. My fav is the slow-cookedBeef rib, shin & pulled brisket pie followed right after by the Steak&Nicholson Pale Ale Pie. The dining area upstair is leap in to the past. A mention of merit goes to the excellent service

Wow....we love this pub. Its small, busy and very friendly. Staff are great too. Up for the weekend to watch Argyle v Chelsea....we met a Chelsea supporter and his friends and had a great time over about 6hrs !! Nice beer, good gins and nice chips!! We don't make a habit of going back to the same pub but this place was the exception....back Sunday night for more !!

We're both pescaterians so it was an obvious choice to try out their Fish & Chips and Fish pie. Both were amazing! I tried a surprising beer that is now one of my faves. The staff was kind and welcoming. Vibes to the max! 10/10 Thank you White Lion!

Okay food in a beautiful upstairs dining room with views of the busy street below. This alone is worth a visit. Service is also friendly and accommodating to requests.Tried their lamb shank pie and found it to be quite bland. Wouldn’t order again.Their halloumi fries were really good and their festive bread pudding was decent.

we had already been a couple of years ago and had a good time. we returned for this reason and confirm the first impression. Good food, great beer and very friendly staff. The location is very nice and clean. For this reason I have no negative notes to report

On a 12-hour layover in London, we went downtown to do some sight-seeing. It was so cold and rainy that we gave up and popped into the White Lion Pub. The bartender was so friendly and welcoming and we had a great time. When the restaurant opened, we went up for some great food and discovered that the lovely server is from near our home in Canada. Small world. Made our day so much brighter!
