White Lion - Table reservation

I visited The White Lion on Sunday, December 17 for lunch and had a terrible experience. My starter of deep-fried mushrooms had black pepper in the batter, which I dislike as I prefer to season my food at the table. The roast lunch was equally disappointing - the gammon had no flavor and was tough, the roast potatoes were cold and overly seasoned with black pepper, the Yorkshire pudding was soggy, and the gravy had a strange sweet taste. I spoke to the waiter about my dissatisfaction and he said he would inform the chef. Overall, it was a disappointing experience and I will definitely not be returning anytime soon.

Went the white lion yesterday vastly improved since my last vist about 7months ago, staff were especially welcoming, new manager seems to on course to turn the place round, barmaid Emily who I think is new was very efficient and helpful. Keep up the good work will definitely be coming back more frequently when I'm in the area.

I had a fantastic experience at this restaurant! The staff was excellent, the food was delicious, and the price was reasonable. We had a party for 22 people to celebrate a birthday, and I will definitely be returning soon.

Used the white lion on several occasions but this time didn't stay to long due to the fact that the garden door into the bar just slammed with a big BANG each time someone entered so we ate up drank up and left.
