The White Lion - (Near , london)

4 /5 Fiona Klein: Lovely Sunday Carvery, good value and so many vegetable choices!! Well be back !

5 /5 paul batchelor: WOW! The Sunday carvery was quite simply excellent value. I have celiac disease and the catered fully for gluten free - a total game changer. The service was just a little chaotic behind the bar, but I believe that was due to new staff being trained up. That said, the staff were very friendly and welcoming. The outside of the pub looks a little tired but the inside is lovely so dont let that put you off Overall, we would definitely go back again without a shadow of a doubt.

4 /5 FLnurseER1: Although our experience did not start off well, we would definitely return again. Our reservation was for 11 people and a dog. We were promptly seated in the back room and were ready to order. After a long time, a lady came to inform us, that we can not sit there with our dog, that dogs are welcomed only in the front room. More waiting. After at least half hour, we were seated around several tables in the appropriate room, and being from the US, we waited for someone to take our drink order, by now the kids (5) were restless. No one came to explain the order and pay system, we finally saw a sign at the bar. More waiting followed, we had to choose food and pay for it at the bar as well. All this confusion made us regret coming here, however after having a drink and seeing the carvery and veg choices, we relaxed and were able to enjoy an absolutely delicious Sunday roast. Portions served were plentiful, the meat tender and juicy, the nut roast was liked by our vegetarians. We had also enjoyed the live entertainment, a lovely lady with a very beautiful voice and we stayed around for additional half hour listening to her. The pub is in a convenient location with plenty of parking, and a quaint old church nearby if you fancy a short postprandial walk.

5 /5 Claire Lievesley: Absolutely fantastic. First time visiting with family, welcoming atmosphere, very quiet for the time we were in. Food amazing.. we had the pie and because there wasn’t enough chips ready for the portion on the plate the chef sent out the pie so that it didn’t go cold and quickly followed by another serving of chips.

5 /5 Mary Cooke: Hi, I just wanted to add that the speciality evenings we have really enjoyed, so far have been a great curry evening with so much choice. The other evening we have enjoyed is the superb fish and chips. Massive fish and lovely fat chips. True value for money from a landlady who always greets her guests with a smile. Lovely food and people. Well done Julie and Ian the chef. A pity we missed the Chinese evening but I bet the food was lovely. My husband and I eat here every Sunday. The White Lion is the best of the best. We had Christmas and Boxing day in their excellent company. We felt we were a part of an extended family. Beautiful home cooked food. We cannot fault this family run business. They have had lower class clientele that were abusive. But rubbish always comes to the top of the pond. So ignore negative comments, if they want fast food then they can go elsewhere. This is quality food not junk food. FEB 14 VALENTINES DAY 2025. WOW!!! Beautiful food and lovely touches with real red roses and heart shaped candles. I just have to show you my pudding. Lovely homemade meringue with that gorgeous chewy bit. Cream islands under all the meringues and huge strawberries. Three flavour meringues, plain, pistachio and raspberry. This was SOOOO good. We so love this place and I really really wanted the Tri of meringues with Chantilly cream again that I had them on the following Sunday. Now with edible flowers and raspberries. Picture added below. May 2025 Well, I just had to add another delicious pudding. Sticky Toffee Pudding. Just look at the picture. Lovely homemade caramel and the lightest and most delicious spongy sticky pud going. Rich custard....my diet cannot cope with anything less!!! The little balls on the top are caramel. Just little touches like this and the strawberry take this out of the ordinary in presentation . If you havent tasted this pud then you are denying your tummy of a great experience. Mind you, if you all go there then there may not be enough for me.....mmmm, just me thinking. Too late I have posted. I just had to show you my pudding favourite for June. Pistachio Meringue with fruits and Chantilly Cream. If nuts are not your thing there is a lemon alternative. This is sheer decadence.
