"There's not much in the way of ambience here flatly lit with large windows looking out onto winter darkness so not a place for an intimate dinner. Some of our menu choices were good but the fish and chips were a big disappointment: grey probably pre frozen coley in a restaurant in a fishing village? The menu deliberately does not identify the fish... the chef needs to up his game in Aldeburgh."

We had a lovely meal. Beautifully cooked. My boeuf bourguignon was outstanding and my wife’s sole was perfectly cooked. The service was exemplary. Well done.

I was very disappointed with my experience at this restaurant. Although the prices were fair, the roast beef was tough and full of sinew, making it hard to cut and chew.

Fantastic food. Wonderful staff. If you are local or visiting, you should try this restaurant. I am originally local but now live away. On a three day trip back, we went twice. Do try.

Returned to The White Lion for a Sunday lunch and it was as good as previously. Good choice of meals including a vegetarian nut roast. Good value, well prepared, friendly staff and a nice atmosphere. View menu

We have visited this hotel multiple times, but our most recent experience was the most enjoyable. The hotel is conveniently located, and it is clear that a good amount of money has been invested in it.

Absolutely brilliant roast dinner and a nice dining room with pleasant staff. We both really enjoyed our meal and trying the brioche gelato (which was a new one on us, but which worked! . If we ever return to Aldeburgh, we would definitely return!

I made a reservation for a dining and stay package at this hotel. The location is ideal and the rooms are warm and comfortable. The staff is attentive and the breakfast and dinner at the Brasserie were excellent. The hotel is dog-friendly and they also have a happy hour, making it the perfect place to stay. View menu

Hotel prices but below average food and average service. Long waits even though half empty restaurant, TINY fish starter presented without lemon, no offer of bread or rolls, dry slice of bread with a soup, tiny open tart SMOTHERED in balsamic glaze so that was all I could taste! Frozen supermarket style chips!

I always stay at the White Lion when I'm staying here for business. The burger probably has to be the nicest burger I've EVER had. It simply is delicious and cooked to perfection. The restaurant is lovely, a great selection of beers, Adnams Wild Wave is a must!!. Pity next door at Sea Spice isn't the same quality. Please open on Tuesdays and Wednesdays.

"This wasn’t our first visit (the previous occasion was more positive than this) but this was really quite poor. Problem after problem, service was poor and just not very welcoming. Firstly, drinks weren’t available issues with draft, but then bottles weren’t available either. So there was a very limited selection of drinks on offer and the staff weren’t proactive in advising what was available. So it was request and receive a no! Secondly, the food was poor. The starters were shocking. Really quite bad. There was a bit of redemption from some of the mains, but we elected to not proceed with anything else as it wasn’t great. We had to wait ages for drinks and foods to arrive despite the fact that the restaurant was practically empty and many staff present. Frequently there were 3 staff at the back of the room standing about chatting, but they weren’t attentive to our needs. They didn’t check around the room to see if guests required additional drinks or require plates clearing. They didn’t check to see how the food was and when we complained regarding a starter they simply didn’t know how to handle it. When the draft beer came back on there was no proactive behaviour in returning to the table and letting us know so that more drinks could be ordered. Drinks were poured in wrong glasses, plates were cleared whilst people were still eating and then not cleared when they needed to be! Simply put the staff working had no idea on what table service should be perhaps they had received no training which is a major failing when the restaurant is part of a hotel. It was not welcoming. The restaurant was freezing cold. The service was really very poor and the food disappointing. They also don’t take dogs which in Aldeburgh is a bit weird. There is plenty of space and the tables are large so they would not be in the way. We won’t be returning."
