Contribute FeedbackThe White Lion is a charming pub that has garnered a mix of reactions from diners. While some patrons rave about the delicious food, friendly service, and inviting ambiance, others have encountered disappointing experiences marked by undercooked meals and inattentive staff. Noteworthy is the pub's appealing decor and clean facilities, along with a favorable variety of menu options, including an enticing curry night. However, issues like food quality inconsistencies and staff behavior have tainted the experience for some visitors. Overall, the White Lion is recommended for those seeking a welcoming spot with potential for delightful meals, but with caution for consistency.
I ordered a Sunday roast and was disappointed to find that the potatoes were undercooked, the vegetables were overcooked and bland, and the meat was lackluster. It seemed as though everything had been reheated from frozen. When I raised my concerns with the staff, they showed no interest in addressing the issue. I do not plan on returning to this restaurant.
I stopped by with my oldest child for a quick drink and we enjoyed our time in the back beer garden. I had a Doom Bar beer and my child had a JD. The location is nice, away from the main road. I have had a great meal here before and also enjoyed the lovely bar area inside.
Every year, except during the Covid lockdown, my 90-year-old mother, aunt, friend, and I have dined at this amazing restaurant every day of our vacation. My mother has gallstones and diabetes, so her diet is carefully controlled. The staff were incredibly accommodating and went above and beyond to cater to her needs. Gary, the chef, is outstanding and all of his dishes are absolutely delicious. He even modified the menu to suit my mother's needs. Thank you, Gary, for taking such good care of us. We look forward to returning in 2023. Best wishes, Sharon Witney.
Didnt make reservation but still had a warm welcome. Good service. Great food. Lovely and clean and lots of space. Reasonable prices.
Tried to eat here, woman told me I could have soup as was safe for my allergies, chef came out and said I couldn’t. Decided it wasn’t safe and she chased us to the door, swearing at my son then threw food at me. I asked why she swore at him and assaulted me with good and she got closer and closer into my face- what a dreadful woman
