We had a lovely lunch in Cronies Bar, we had difficulty in getting through on phone & email trying to book. Staff were very good & surroundings excellent. Would highly recommend.

Lovely setting, staff very friendly. I had fish and chips, whilst fish was very tasty, the fish and small portion of chips were cold as was the crumble I had for dessert. Expensive for a lunch.

I’m afraid that our meal was disappointing and mediocre. The AC in the dining room blew out cold air throughout our visit despite the outside temperature being 4c on a cold November day. Although the plates were hot, the food was not , no complaint about the food itself. The service was slow. The meals for two of our party were brought but the other two had to wait 30 mins for theirs, in effect we ate separately, not what was intended for a family birthday lunch. Our order for teas & coffees got lost, we waited 30 mins for those & had to re-order. The serving staff were doing their best butI’m not encouraged to come back.

Been coming to golden lion for years. In for lunch yesterday and disappointed. Soup was luke warm and sandwiches were too big...preferred when quartered easier to eat, tuna also bland, ordered tuna and red onion but it was tuna with 2 large red onion rings on top.

First time at The Golden Lion for a meal. Super dining experience, lovely food and very welcoming staff. Really set our night out off to a great start. Great atmosphere too, will definitely be back!

Went for High Tea on Sunday afternoon. Has been redecorated since we were last there, giving it a smarter appearance. Service was friendly and very good. Food was very tasty. Sadly we were the only couple in at the time, hopefully this was the lull before Christmas rush.
