Lovely lamb and Pork roast dinners (beef and veg options also available) by the fire, lovely service in this family run pub. Food was brilliant, parsnip croquette and dauphinoise potatoes were a nice touch. The vegan apple crumble was also lovely. Would definitely go again.

Always fabulous, food and well-kept beers. Friendly family-run local. Getting ever harder to get a table, especially for their excellent Sunday lunch.One year on, we've not changed our minds. Just as fabulous post pandemic.Another year on and the welcome and friendship is just as lovely but now The Lion excels with their Sunday lunch menu and new rice pudding dessert. It's all absolutely delicious.

Went to the lion for a friend's 50th birthday party and it was brilliant. Lovely range of gins, amazing chicken curry, great little courtyard garden and amazing dancing☺️.

Had the lamb and mushroom pie Sunday roast. Best Sunday roast we have had in a long time (possibly ever). Definitely the best vegetarian Sunday roast I've had. Lovely Staff and a nice vibe.

Delicious food: I had the salmon cake, and it comes with a avocado and cucumber salad. We spent only 18£ per person.The beer was good; but we especially appreciate the welcoming atmosphere. Thanks!

Best meal of our UK trip so far. This is a very authentic neighborhood pub (don't be put off by the 'gastropub' label) with a charming staff and a superb Sunday roast. Good value to boot - the servings were immense. High marks all round.

Came here for Sunday roast.The staff were nice and friendlyBut the food took tooo long to come. More than 45 minutesWe ordered the roast lamb and roast beef. The lamb wasn’t good. The beef was okay not the best tho.The place is nice but a bit small and crowded

The cauliflower croquette and dauphinoise potatoes were so good and different from usual roasts. Would definitely come back again!
