We had a lovely weekend, staying for a wedding nearby. The staff in the White Lion are a real team - everyone trying their best to give us a great experience. Facilities, food, accommodation and the warm welcome were all on point. Excellent value for money too.

Had the pleasure to dine at 1657, experiencing the tasting menu. Every dish was absolutely mind blowing, with expertly paired wines complimenting each course. The pre dinner cocktail also delivered, and the genuine, warm, friendly service truly stood out

We had lunch, it was very nice. We chose 3 for £12 for starters, the frickles were nice, crispy and the dips were nice. The falafel salad could have done with more falafel, there were only 5 in a big bowl. The burgers were nice as was the fish and chips. Reasonable price, £100 including drinks and coffee.

Top notch in all respects (bar parking which, in the centre of a historic town, is understandable). The room was superb, about twice the size of a typical hotel room! and very well appointed. In the bar there was a good selection of beers and cider, and food from the kitchen was very tasty and reasonably priced.

We had an absolutely fantastic meal at! From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere was warm and welcoming, with friendly staff who made us feel right at home. The food was incredible—every dish was cooked to perfection and bursting with flavor. "The steak and ale pie was the best we've ever had!" The portions were generous, and everything arrived hot and beautifully presented. The service was impeccable—attentive without being intrusive, and they made sure we had everything we needed throughout the meal. The pub itself had a lovely charm, with a cozy, relaxed vibe that made the whole experience even more enjoyable.
