My hubby and I went to this venue for a midweek lunch and it was amazing. We had a ciabatta each which came with an amazing salad and we ordered chips as a side. These too were fresh, hand cut, well seasoned and absolutely divine. On the basis of that we booked a family lunch for five of us which we had today. I was a little disappointed if I 'm honest. Our party included my mother who is in her 70 's and now generally eats 1 small meal per day. When ordering we asked if we could order a child 's portion for her as it seems such a waste to order food that is definitely not going to get eaten. We were told I 'll ask but he doesn 't like to do that, he says if it 's an adult they have to have...
Despite it being lunchtime, we were given the option to choose from both the lunch and dinner menus. I decided to go with the ploughman’s, and I was not disappointed. For just £10, I received three different types of cheese, a pork pie, a generous portion of real ham, pickle, coleslaw, pickled onions, a warm mini baguette, and a salad garnish. It was great value for money. My wife opted for the cod goujon sandwich, which was filled with plenty of fish and cooked to perfection. This is the kind of pub food that we love - delicious, honest, and affordable.
To top off our enjoyable lunch, there was a wide selection of beers to choose from. Unfortunately, I was driving so I couldn't sample them...
The atmosphere at the restaurant was very pleasant, the staff were friendly, but unfortunately, the food was disappointing. The restaurant was quite busy, so we had to wait a while for our order. My friend ordered potato and leek soup while I ordered baked cod. The soup was thick and unappetizing. My friend complained and they acknowledged it was too thick, but still served it. They let her order some fries instead. I didn't complain about my dry and tasteless cod, which was supposed to come with asparagus but came with green beans instead. When they cleared the plates, they refunded my friend and apologized. I don't think we'll be returning to this restaurant for food.
I have been going to the lion for 33 years The last owner neglected the pub which was sad to see but this year it has had new refurbishment inside and out. It is warm and cosy and the kids area my nephew loves.The new owners are really passionate and you can see how much work they have put in turning it round. The atmosphere is fantastic. I have not eaten here yet but I hear when people have finished there meals how lovely they are

We have visited the Lion twice over the last few weeks, (after a very long time), we were not disappointed, we were greeted by freindly staff, made to feel very welcome, the food was good and hearty portions went down well, the Chef and staff took care of our requests brilliantly, and we will definitely be calling back as much as we can especially on one of their event nights.
We visited as a large group for Sunday lunch and it was the best roast I've had in a very long time. I understand the pub is under newish management and they really know what they are doing. Beef and roasties were cooked to perfection and everything tasted fresh and home made. The service was lovely too and we all agreed we would definitely be going back.
I went to this restaurant for a family dinner with 8 people, without knowing anything about it beforehand. The ambiance was really cozy and the service was top-notch; our server was extremely helpful and patient. The food was excellent, well-presented, and the portion sizes were generous. The pub was very clean and we will definitely be returning.
I was gigging at this place as a mobile DJ. Whilst waiting to start we ordered pizza with a side of chips. It was perfect. If passing I would most definitely pop in for lunch. Staff are of the old style of nothing is too much trouble.
