Great find. Should have found it earlier. Food is a little bit expensive but the quality is there.

We booked online for an evening meal with our one year old and we were not disappointed. What a wonderful evening in a clean and calm atmosphere with delightful friendly staff and such tasty food. The risotto, the chicken supreme, a Tbone steak and the catch of the day (plaice) were all very tasty and well presented. All the different fries were delicious and the creme brulee and the cinnamon doughnuts with gooseberry jam were also delicious. The changing facilities for our granddaughter were very clean and well presented. As were the ladies and gents. All in all a delightful evening and well worth every penny. Unfortunately we couldn't enjoy the garden, which is fabulous, as it was raining but our granddaughter absolutely loved looking at all the lions that are around in the pub and garden. Superb. We highly recommend The Lion.

So under estimated it was a full meal!!! Reasonable price and the best pub meal I have had for a long time.on the high street of East Bergholt 100yds from the beautiful church once attended by "Constable".I fully recommend a visit to the "Lion".

The most delightful countryside pub, with delicious food, friendly staff, great choice of drinks with a frequently changing specials menu. The Sunday roast and veggie roast were so good- not too heavy, and full of flavour! They have a gorgeous courtyard overlooking the garden, and they recently renovated the inside- I couldn’t take too many photos as there were too many people this time! Definitely recommend booking.

Great roast dinner at The Lion with friends - recommend prebooking a table as it is a popular place and busy atmosphere. Chicken roast was excellent, served with large Yorkshire pudding. Gravy and green beans fantastic and full of flavour. Desserts were notably on the expensive end at around £10+ each which felt too much for the portion size (2 profiteroles + accompanying sides) but service was fast and friendly from the team and would definitely visit again when in the area especially in summer to make use of the large garden Free parking available

Delicious food and excellent service! The scallops were fresh and light, the fat chips and fish divine. ALL the deserts were amazing - the apple crumble had the perfect amount of tartiness and was not too sweet and there was lots of crumble. The three puddings were chocolaty and delicate, and the fondant excellent! I was told the steak was perfectly cooked and the artichoke starter wonderfully spiced and delicious. And I LOVED the passion fruit martini with a shot of Prosecco. This was very good quality food. And the servers were lovely. Great meal.

it was the first time visiting The Lion having recently moved to the area. first impressions were good. friendly staff. nice venue. but the food wasnt great. we ordered Lobster thermidor which was missing the samphire and the Ploughman's which wasn't a ploughman's it was a charcuterie type type thing with a pound of cheese. no one wants 8 tomatoes 8 mini gherkins and olives on a ploughman's! nope! no ham no pork pie and a quail egg scotch egg that was grey and tasted like it was off. 1 slice of sad bread. the whole thing was dry as hell and the chef needs to sit there and eat it to understand what he is serving. we wont be back

Beautiful setting in the outdoor Marquee/yurt but it was empty but for one other table at 2pm for Sunday Lunch and we were asked to leave the table by 4pm! (for whom? only one party arrived after us) Obviously not a popular venue. Apperol spitz was watery missing any prosecco Roast beef was grisly and chewy and swamped in gravy Trio of meats was dry Summer pudding was great Therein lies the problem. It is just not value for money. Food and service fairly unimpressive Atmosphere further dampened for me hearing the Chef and kitchen staff at rear of pub. We can hear you from the garden!

After reading good reviews we thought we would try Sunday lunch. The restaurant was nice enough as were the staffbut the food was underwhelming. The home made breads starter was 4 thick slices of white bread .. The roast potatoes looked crunchy but were soft and tasted like they had been cooked the day before or very early and just heated (they were luke warm) not hot. No cracking as advertised with pork. Not much selection of veg with it. The soup was best thing. Didn’t bother with desert. Sorry we don’t usually comment but we were all disappointed

Absolutely love The Lion. You don't get many places in this region that have such a cosy atmosphere; fresh, local, quality ingredients (hence the higher price bracket); & excellent, friendly service. No wonder it won East of England pub of the year 🥳 Nice to see Adnams Ease Up & Southwold Bitter on tap, & can recommend the Viognier. If you haven't been before you MUST try the thick cut chips with aioli dip - they are the best chips ever!! We ordered from the a la carte menu & both steaks were cooked to just as requested. For a more affordable option, head there on a Wed & Thurs + Fri afternoon for the set menu.

Food is tasty here but I don’t return that frequently because I prefer other places locally. I had a whitebait starter which was pretty disappointing in terms of portion size for £10, it was just 7 whitebait with some tartare and a slice of lemon plus they were seemed to me like the frozen type not hand battered or anything particularly special. My partner had the muscles as a starter which was a massive portion in comparison and came with bread. Had I ordered this I would have had a much better experience.

Child friendly. The child changing facilities were clean and easily accessible. Ample street parking. Reservations are a must to avoid disappointment. Beautiful pub. We had the roast trio and even though we got to The Lion almost three hours after they opened, the food was cooked well. The portions were just right. The beef wasn’t tough, dry or tiny. It was a proper chicken breast wrapped in bacon. We didn’t need more gravy. Veg was delicious - not over cooked or neglected. And the yorkshires were fantastic. And the desserts were great. Top marks for presentation. We had to cancel our original reservation as my baby was still sleeping. We were able to rebook and I was very happy with the way the staff accommodated my family. They put us at a table at the back where it was cooler and not noisy. There was room for a buggy and there was a high chair for us.

My husband myself and our 🐕 were staying over for the night and a nearby ⛺site ,one of the locals had told us how this pub restaurant had gone down hill and was only a 🌟 and to avoid . We always like to try places for ourselves, and make up our own minds , we were not disappointed .very quiet only 1 young couple with a toddler eating a meal when we arrived and a group with a child arrived abit later and maybe a couple more who just came in for a drink . We were welcomed with a smile by a very friendly chap who served behind the bar, took our food order, waited on us , and made a fuss of our dog 🦴. The menu had a variety of different dishes, and food was full of flavour . I would definitely recommend the red lion .

Found this place online . Was looking for a nice little family pub to take the kids on a Saturday early evening somewhere with some stuff for the children to do . Looked on their website and they had pictures of a big children’s play area with lots of things for them to do . So all excited jumped in the car took the 30 minute drive there to walk into the garden and not a children’s toy in sight 🤦🏻‍♂️ my heart sank . Was completely shocked no mention on the website or anywhere that’s it’s now gone . Saying that if you haven’t got kids and want a nice quiet pub with a ok garden it’s not a bad place but definitely won’t be going back .staff where friendly.
