Amazing local pub. Tracey, the landlady, couldn't be more welcoming. All the staff are amazing. Good selection of drinks and bar snacks.
Open fire in the winter, sports shown and always some decent music on in the background if there isn't any sport. Regularly have live music or a decent dj.
Real
Great welcome - when we got to the bar the said they had an open jukebox... write your song on the sheet of paper and it will be played in order.
Really got us involved with other people in the pub and created a sense of community. Great idea to start conversations as we all discussed our music lov
Lovely lady Traci who manages the pub. Soo funny, great sense of humour and keeps this pub very busy.
Nice pub, with a better than average Greene King ale selection. Live music played on the night I visited, the locals and staff were friendly. Generally a good night was had.
No food but great beer and service. A great place to end the day.
Stopped after work for pint, it tasted like beer and staff were friendly. Didn't eat but not marking it down due to that.
Lovely local pub very friendly bar staff had a great time and a good laugh
Really nice authentic pub, super helpful staff
Visited Basingstoke for a couple of days training, found the Golden Lion, great beer, great pub, very welcoming person behind the bar made us feel right at home and a great place to watch the football, thank you.
Nice cold Fosters after a walk to town. Update Just been for a takeaway during these times and I have to say it was great 👍
Proper pub this. screens on for the footie, beer's good 👍
Awesome pub to go to for a nite out great atmosphere would highly recvomend
The Golden Lion did an amazing job of catering for my Mother's wake. They catered for 40 people at a very good price. There was a huge variety of different fare to cater for all tastes including a veggie choice. Everyone commented that the sandwiches were the best ever. They included a large cheese
Hands down the best fish and chips in Basingstoke. My first time ordering from the Golden Lion and definitely will order again. The food was hot, arrived on time and all time classic! 5 stars well deserved!
