"We went to this restaurant for dinner and to watch a football game while we were staying at a nearby lodge. We had made a reservation for 5pm. When we arrived, the man at the bar told us to sit wherever we liked, but mentioned there was a private event in the back. We chose to sit in "the snug," a cozy and secluded area. The bartender brought us menus and informed us that our order would be taken after 5pm, when the chef was ready. The food was delicious, especially my husband's steak pie which was generously filled with tender pieces of meat. However, we were not asked if we wanted another drink or dessert, and felt a bit neglected. When we went to pay at the bar, we inquired about watching the football game, but the sports bar was too crowded. We moved to another section of the bar, where the server told us she would be with us shortly, but then prioritized serving someone else. We didn't feel very welcomed and it seemed like more of a place for regular customers. Although the food was good, we probably won't be returning."

Visited twice in a week and had two lovely meals. Recommend the burgers and the steak pie. Good prices for food and drinks are at a really good price (and good choice) for a hotel.

We arrived to check in after a long weary drive to find the door locked a local then told me that the landlord is in prison for fraud it would have been polite to inform me of the situation, and not waste my time and effort View menu

We're an American couple traveling by narrowboat, and after what seems like a few hundred ham and cheese sandwiches,we had a great dinner tonight. Highly recommend the sirloin. Friendly, cozy place that was perfect for a nice evening.

I went to this restaurant for a meal and initially enjoyed the great service and food. However, my experience was tainted when the staff took a break and began using foul language and smoking while we were dining. They continued to swear loudly even when another family with a young child was present, which I found disrespectful.

Absolutely fantastic little place. Staff are all chatty and welcoming. Prices are great. Food was good (we had a Limited menu which was still great) heard the chef is very young and training so gave the benefit of the doubt but all was fantastic. Came back three times whilst staying here for a few days just for drinks as it was cosy and welcoming. View menu

A family of eight sat in the beer garden at the restaurant. Unfortunately, when they arrived, they saw kitchen staff taking a break outside. This was not a great start to their dining experience. They ordered their meals, but only the child's burger was satisfactory. Everything else was overcooked and burnt. The children's meals came out last, with fish fingers that were so burnt they were inedible. One adult ordered a gluten-free burger, but they had to apologize after realizing they had run out of gluten-free buns and served a burnt burger instead. The lasagne had chunks of solid béchamel and lacked flavor. No staff came to check if everything was okay, so the family waited for their plate...

It's a while since we last ate at The Black Lion and it will be an even longer time before we return. Calling for lunch we were told there would be a ten minute wait. Ten minutes? It was forty and there was only one other table being served in the dining room. We selected our meals. My husband chose from the vegetarian menu and received cold vegetables, and when he asked where the new potatoes were (he'd been given a dollop of mashed potatoes) was told they'd run out! My meal of tasteless scampi and seriously over cooked chips arrived looking brown and extremely unappetising there were no peas, they'd run out. There was no offer of a substitute and I suspect the overcooked chips could have b...
