Every time I've been to this pub on a Sunday they've got the bill wrong at least the last 4 times I've visited for a meal this time they charged £5.50 extra for cauliflower cheese we never had so I would advise anyone having a meal at the blue lion to check the bill because its never to your benefit

I found this listed on my list of places to eat, no idea where I got the idea from but I'm so glad we tried it today. Lovely pub with a great outdoor area although with the weather today we ate in. Lovely food, good portions and great service. I had the gammon and my husband had a pizza. Will definitely be on our list of Saturday lunch venues from now on and will perhaps try a Sunday roast in the future too.

The menu offered a delightful array of authentic Italian dishes, each meticulously prepared with fresh, high-quality ingredients. The flavors were simply divine. The service was impeccable, with attentive staff ensuring our evening was nothing short of perfection. Grazie mille, Blue Lion.

We all had a Sunday roast,it was delicious & hot & the best we have had in a long time. Every meal was so tasty.

A Lovely place for us to celebrate our wedding anniversary last night. I ordered the rump steak with all the trimmings and was not disappointed. My steak was so tender it melted in my mouth. My husband had gammon with all the trimmings and he really enjoyed it. My husband is a Coeliac and has dietary requirements ie gluten free. He was well looked after and even had gluten free onion rings. Quite a few options for gluten free. Staff very friendly and helpful. Highly recommended 👌 👏👏

This is a really delightful pub in a very attractive location. We were taken by friends who had been several times before. I am a coeliac and require gluten free but also lactose intolerant and they catered for me beautifully. I had gf fish and chips and the batter was probably the best I've tasted. It was so light it almost melted in the mouth. There was a large piece of cod the likes of which I haven't had in a long time accompanied by a decent portion of mushy peas and chips which were very nicely cooked. There were several gluten free options on the menu which makes a welcome change to a lot of pubs. As it was steak night, my husband and his friend ordered the steak with a choice of sauce which came with a free bottle of red wine and the other lady ordered Salmon en Croute which she thoroughly enjoyed. Staff were extremely pleasant and very helpful. We would definitely recommend this place if you are looking for a good well cooked meal at reasonable prices. We will certainly go again that's for sure.

Six of us visited on Tuesday December 13th - we decided on the weekday menu - the serving staff were excellent and efficient. The food was piping hot, very good portions too - the squid was amazing in particular, the mixed grill was HUGE ! but we all said the food was tops ! we all loved the wide choice on the menu - the puddings rounded the evening off perfectly ! We will sure visit you again at some point, hopefully in warm weather so we can all sit outside and enjoy summer evenings. Well done to everyone at The Blue Lion for making us all so welcome.

A group of us had food off the lunch menu and it’s was ok but not great. Steak and Stilton sandwich which I had was average. Everybody has different interpretations of recipes but in many other places the stilton is either melted directly or turned into a sauce. I wasn’t expecting just crumbles of stilton as it’s very strong when served like that. The salad wasn’t fresh either. The garlic bread wasn’t cooked properly. The mac and cheese felt like it was bought in as it was very stodgy and heavy. Mini cod and chips had soggy batter. The staff do not clear the tables very often so after food had finished the tables are cramped when trying to enjoy drinks. All minor things that could easily be corrected to make the service and food fit in with this great setting.

Having been many times before we were disappointed in this visit. I had gammon which was under cooked, as were the chips (soggy and limp), which when then had to swim in a plate full of pea water (they hadn't ben drained properly) made for a slightly under average meal. The wife had what can only be described as a 'Mary Berry Piźza' (soggy bottom) No offer of top up drinks, no checking on food satisfaction until eaten, then when told just got 'OK thanks' no questions as to why or what we thought what was wrong. Prices not that cheap so expected better.

Just had Sunday lunch here. Lovely atmosphere and the dining room was clean and bright. I had the 'meatless' Sunday lunch. Now I am not a veggie for political/environmental reasons, I just don't really like the taste of meat. I must say I did not miss meat one bit. The cauliflower cheese was very tasty and the veggies and potato accompaniments were all well cooked. I also had the expresso mousse, that was smooth and creamy. My other half had a scotch egg and roast turkey. He enjoyed his meal as well. The bill was very reasonable too. We will visit again.

Starters were ok (but you can’t really go wrong with pate) but the mains were vile. Undercooked and cold, we had to send 3 burgers back and they just deep fat fried the same burgers and served them again. Didn’t end up eating the main and after that we really didn’t want to even try the deserts. The servers were rude and there was absolutely no atmosphere in the very dated, echo’y and cold ‘restaurant.’ Overall avoid this place. It’s awful.

It was abysmal. I ordered a passion fruit and mango pavlova for dessert. Sounds nice, doesn't it? When it came (without any explanation as to why it wasn't a Pavlova) in a sundae glass it was clearly NOT a Pavlova... more an Eton Mess, which is not what I ordered. On the top was an 1/8th of a passion fruit segment (that was the reference to passion fruit in the title which I had to pick up and squeeze over the top). If I had closed my eyes, there is no way I could have identified the mango sauce, I suspect from a jar or sachet but certainly not fresh... that had been poured over the crushed (bought... no way were they homemade) meringues... probably nests from the local Co-op down the road. The "Pavlova" had never seen a piece of fruit in its short life and they had the audacity to charge £6.25 for this mess. It doesn't even deserve a capital M !!

We visited at around 1pm and booking a table was very quick and easy because they were not busy. This place was very good, the staff were friendly and the food and drink were reasonably price. Two 10oz steak meals plus 2 carlings came to £32 in the end which was not bad at all. The pint’s were good and also the food was excellent and for a reasonable price. The venue was also very clean. I’d recommend this place to anyone who wants a good quality meal for a reasonable price.

Been before and it was excellent. This time it took ages for our food order to be taken and drinks to arrive - food was average but was very over cooked. Shame as we loved our previous visit.

Sunday we visited The Blue Lion for the first time. We booked and pre-ordered for 8 of us. We were not disappointed!

Was recommended to try here, we found it understaffed, average welcome and poorly prepped food. The bacon on the burger was burnt , burger small, and toaster soggy. Not impressed, not planning on going back any time soon 🙁

Excellent service and spot on food. Better than Weatherspoons I have to say. Will be back soon. Highly recommended.
