White Lion - Shropshire

The bar area is traditional and cozy with high quality local beer on the tap. we enjoyed our lunch in the restaurant very attentive and helpful. the chef spoke to us before preparing the meal to ensure that all our nutritional restrictions could be met, which is very soothing when it comes out. highly recommended!

We stopped by for lunch on a Thursday and found ourselves to be the only customers. The owner, a friendly gentleman, greeted us warmly. I was joined by my two children, aged 4 and 6 months in a pram, as well as my mother. He graciously opened the doors for us and allowed us to choose our seating. The service was excellent and he interacted wonderfully with my curious little boy, answering his many questions. The menu offered a good selection at reasonable prices. I ordered the homemade chicken curry, which was delicious. The chicken was perfectly cooked, the rice fluffy and the naan bread was not the typical mini one you might find in a toaster. My son had the kids burger, which was clearly homemade and a generous portion for a children's meal. My mother enjoyed the Cajun chicken burger, which was also well-prepared and a satisfying size. It was topped with fresh salad and homemade coleslaw, a rarity nowadays. We had a great time and will definitely be returning soon!

Called in on a mid-week evening for a drink and meal. It was lovely to enter a warm and welcoming hostelry with log fires burning, in both the bar and lounge, where we were seated. We tried the locally brewed Salopian and Stonehouse Brewery ales, which were in fine fettle and then had a thoroughly enjoyable meal, accompanied with a bottle of delicious red wine. We had a memorable evening, which included great company, a warm and cosy atmosphere in a lovely village inn. Well done the new owners!

Booked for the Sunday roast for my wife's birthday as had heard many recommendations for the White Lion, they weren't wrong, absolutely fantastic food very reasonably priced. Staff were excellent couldn't do enough for us. booked again for the following Sunday :

We visited today to celebrate our dear friend’s birthday and wow, what a magical afternoon we had. We had booked a table in the old stables as we wanted to be able to sing happy birthday without upsetting other diners with our terrible singing voices. We were given the lovely table in the corner by the fire, which was just perfect. We were served by a lovely young girl, who made us feel like nothing was too much trouble. We all had roast dinners and not only were the flavours incredible, but the presentation was perfection. My partner is actually a chef himself, so he’s not always the easiest to please food wise but he said this is now his new favourite place for a rare day off. The pub is under new management and it was immediately evident that they’ve made significant improvements to the place since we last visited under the old management. With improved menus, nicer decor and fabulous service we’ll definitely be returning again soon for a date night!
