White Lion

Great community owned village pub now under new management. We sat in the lounge area which was warm and welcoming with the log burner lit. We dined with friends and all had different dishes from the varied menu and all were excellent, as were the real ales. The new landlord Stuart and his staff were very friendly and welcoming. Definitely a good place for a warming meal on a dark winters night.

The White Lion is a community owned pub, which has existed since the 18th Century. The pub has had various work done recently to improve the pub inside and out, to provided a range of facilities for pleasure and business, ideal for groups to meet up. The pub was awarded the Rural Oscar for the Best British Pub 2023 by the countryside alliance. The pub is a traditional Shropshire pub and restaurant with excellent beer and a lovely beer garden.

Called while on a walk to escape the rain. Very friendly staff. Couldn't have been more helpful. Water for the dogs and all made very welcome. We had an evening booking but ended up staying for lunch. Beautiful burger and chips on the special board. Hubby had gammon and egg, which he said tasted incredible ! Guiness and local ale and gin, and we walked back to the van parked on a local site carrying some takeaway sandwiches for our tea. Will call again and highly recommend ☆☆☆☆☆

After a long walk in the beautiful local countryside, this pub offers a warm and welcoming stop for delicious food with extremely friendly staff! We had the vegetable gyros & the californian burger sat in the quaint beer garden out back; totally delicious with fabulous presentation. Would highly recommend this pub to anyone passing through. Thank you guys!

Lovely pub that begged to be visited given the sign outside shown in the pic. Staff were really friendly and there was a great 'locally' atmosphere in the bar where I was served. The dropped star is for the real ale as I tried two of the three on offer and they weren't up to the same standard, being noticeably less fresh then at other nearby pubs. Didn't have any food, but the 5 stars are for it's local reputation, which is very strong indeed.

Really enjoyed some eclectic hot, sweet, sour Asian flavoured, Med flavoured easy eating food here… ! Try a bowl of crispy coated, big & juicy Chicken strips on the side dish menu, Jalepeno Poppers.. for a bit of heat, crispy coated peppers stuffed with cream cheese, both great as a starter! Not out of the freezer...home made! Polynesian Prawns dish, tasty with decent sized prawns in a chilli spicy sauce with salad and chips. Tried the Greek styled Gyros with Chicken, also available with Beef or Halumi, served on a flat bread, a Greek salad and a few chips, its a great tasting plateful of food! I had that evenings special of Sea Bass fillet, new potato's, Charred Asparagus and a Hollandaise Sauce..but asked for a side of chilli to sprinkle over the top and they obliged.! Fish cooking was spot on. Another of our party had Teryaki Beef with noodles, there was nothing left on that plate! We saw proper home made Burgers going out and staples like Fish & Chips, there's something for everyone.! We ate in the stable outbuilding, at first i thought we would be forgotten about in this quaint back room, that is separate to the pub..i was wrong, excellent table service all night and the lovely waitress kept us well refreshed!! Its a very busy bar, but don't be put off, the beer is great and there is the stable outside that seats 30 people! Also an outside bbq & seating area with a log fire on the night we were there! In a nutshell..Good hospitality. Great flavoursome food. North South East West.. it’s here, all home made and expertly cooked, quirky, tasty, well spiced and Jalepeno hot. Something for everyone.!! Proper home made cooking .. treat yourself to some great tasty food. Well done Shaun & the gang.
