Lion Lamb - Menu

What a fabulous Sunday lunch. Food was absolutely delicious. I had lamb, others had chicken and pork and all raving about it. Lovely service and great atmosphere. Dog friendly which is an added bonus for us. Some had starters and some desserts, all delicious and presented really nicely. A new favourite haunt.

We don’t visit this pub very often as it’s quite a distance from home, but never been disappointed here. It’s always a treat. The chef genuinely understands food and flavours, so this is a cut above standard pub grub and is sensibly priced too. Particularly recommend any of the seafood dishes as all very fresh and expertly cooked and seasoned. Can’t praise it highly enough! Well worth a visit.

Been quite a few times as more of a place we go because of memory’s. We went for a drink one summers evening and the menu looked great we had to order some things, food was really good, we looked forward to going back. Booked a table on a Friday night, great staff. Menu lacked and they had ran out of a couple of things. Terrine was nice, although one bit of bread for it. I’m all for a bit of “charring” but the Chicken supreme was burnt it did not taste great, truffle and Parmesan chips lacked the truffle and my partners beef was dry and the side order of onion rings never came. Got 20% off the bill. Was still £70. Sadly won’t be rushing back.

We made a reservation for 6 adults and 2 children immediately after our Christmas dinner in 2022 for Christmas Day 2023 because we had enjoyed the day and the food. However, this Christmas Day experience was quite different in many ways. There was no welcome, no welcome drinks, and the pre-meal nibbles were cold and of poor quality. We had to go to the bar to order drinks, and in some cases, they were left on the bar and not brought to our table until we reminded the staff. There was no gravy or Yorkshire puddings, and the prices for wine were jacked up to £30 a bottle. The food was average at best, and for around £100 per person, it was a very disappointing experience. We will not be return...

My experience at The Lion and Lamb on Christmas Day was very disappointing. We had pre-ordered our food for a party of 6 adults and 2 children. When we arrived for our 2pm reservation, it seemed like we were neglected in favor of larger parties already dining. The women were given a glass of prosecco upon arrival, but we had to ask for more once the men arrived. The food was average at best. The souffle was small, tasteless, and resembled a sunken scone. The beef and turkey were okay, but for £100 per person, I expected more than just a few pieces of carrot, parsnip, and a tiny dollop of mash. I didn't have any sprouts, but my wife had one. The service was very poor, with unacceptable wait t...

My friends and I go to the Lion and Lamb every couple of months and it has always been wonderful. Sadly last Saturday it was horrendous. The place was freezing cold, I had to keep my coat on the entire time. But worse than that we waited 55 minutes for our food, when it finally came it was stone cold and the portion was miniscule, the salmon was the smallest portion I have ever seen and the price was over £18 ! We sent it back, ten minutes later it came back exactly the same, cold. There was only one waitress on and it was quite busy, all around people were complaining about the long wait for food. I asked the waitress if the place had changed hands, as it used to have such high standards an...

Another excellent late Sunday Lunch here. Is now our go too destination for Sunday Lunch, when we want to expect excellent food exemplary service. Very busy today even with a later booking at 15:00, but Jack greeted us with a friendly personable welcome, aplogising although none was necessary, as already apparent how busy they were), got us seated, with menus drinks order taken promptly delivered, starters taken. Monkfish Pheasant were met with equal appreciation, again apologies for delays on main course service. Sophia also served with same excellence, as do all the staff), but some things are worth waiting for, our Roast Beef Roast Pork were outstanding! could here other diners being told...

Upon arrival, we received a lackluster welcome and only cheap fizz for the adults, as opposed to the children also receiving drinks like the previous year. The meal itself got off to a rocky start when a prawn cocktail was spilled on the unironed and creased tablecloth, creating an unpleasant smell for the duration of the meal. Additionally, advertised items like pigs in blankets were missing from the turkey main, the mash was dry, and the gravy on the beef had a skin on it and was poured directly onto the plate instead of being served in a jug like the previous year. The children's courses were repeatedly delayed, and even the 'manager' coming to the table with a file to check their orders...

Having been recently for a lovely Sunday dinner, sat next to a roaring fire, I decided to go for a Friday evening meal out. The pub was quiet, and out of all the tables where we could have sat, we were placed near the kitchen in the bar area. I got the impression this was strategic, so we were near to bar and waiting staff. It was very cold evening outside, and there was no heating on at all inside, the radiators were clap cold, not helped by a nasty draft every time staff went in and out of the kitchen, with the door left wide open on a couple of occasions... I had to get up and close it. I even wandered round to see if their lovely fire was going, it was, but it had all but gone out, no so...
