The Golden Lion Inn

Brilliant stop while out cycling, looked after us all and food was great. Thanks for use of the first aid box too. Very kind and considerate people, a credit to the area.

We had a delicious family Sunday lunch for four at this pub today. The starters and main were freshly prepared and beautifully presented. Mains arrived hot with plenty of vegetables and gravy . Sadly we couldn’t fit in the homemade deserts . The owners were very friendly and coped amazingly well given the high volume of walk-ins they had . Highly recommended and we will definitely be back

So we called into this place after a long walk, purchased 3 drinks at the bar, this was halfway into a super strenuous walk. We thought we would support the local business. We took the drinks to the Garden, it was a lovely setting. Before we were about to depart, I thought I’d fuel up and eat my snack size toffee crisp (steep inclines ahead), only to be told by the landlady I couldn’t eat my chocolate on her car park, if I wanted to eat chocolate I should buy some from the bar. I would have had no issue with this, only the way in which I was spoken too was appalling. I mentioned it was a piece of chocolate, to a response of “I don’t care there is chocolate behind the bar. Now I could have been hypoglycaemic, thankfully I was not. Also whilst waiting at the Bar the landlady was heard slating a few tourists asking for Directions. “What part of right do they not bloody understand, Right at the milk Churn”. A group of Germans on Bikes probably wouldn’t understand. If approached different, I wouldn’t be writing this but this lady clearly doesn’t appreciate the £15 spent on a couple of drinks and doesn’t appreciate the visitors. If visiting, the beer is great but watch out for the Welsh dragon!
