Best meal of our UK trip so far. This is a very authentic neighborhood pub (don't be put off by the 'gastropub' label) with a charming staff and a superb Sunday roast. Good value to boot - the servings were immense. High marks all round.
The cauliflower croquette and dauphinoise potatoes were so good and different from usual roasts. Would definitely come back again!
Always fabulous, food and well-kept beers. Friendly family-run local. Getting ever harder to get a table, especially for their excellent Sunday lunch.
One year on, we've not changed our minds. Just as fabulous post pandemic.
Another year on and the welcome and friendship is just as lovely but now
The quintessential local Bristol pub, superb beer, exceptional staff and the best Sunday roast you'll ever have.
Really delicious roast, the best I've ever had. Book and goš
Lovely lamb and Pork roast dinners (beef and veg options also available) by the fire, lovely service in this family run pub. Food was brilliant, parsnip croquette and dauphinoise potatoes were a nice touch. The vegan apple crumble was also lovely. Would definitely go again.
Delicious food: I had the salmon cake, and it comes with a avocado and cucumber salad. We spent only 18Ā£ per person.
The beer was good; but we especially appreciate the welcoming atmosphere. Thanks!
Had the lamb and mushroom pie Sunday roast. Best Sunday roast we have had in a long time (possibly ever). Definitely the best vegetarian Sunday roast I've had. Lovely Staff and a nice vibe.
Went to the lion for a friend's 50th birthday party and it was brilliant. Lovely range of gins, amazing chicken curry, great little courtyard garden and amazing dancingāŗļø.
Lovely little family pub with pretty decorations. The bar was spotless and flowers on every table. The burgers on the menu were very inventive with different flavours!
Excellent and attentive service, we were even moved to the garden without asking, as soon as a table became available.
Well kept ale and nice food - perfect after a day walking around Bristol.
Lovely little pub serving great food. Great atmosphere, relaxed, friendly staff.
Itās nice, of course. The beer was good. It was pleasant and relaxed, and Iād go again if I were nearby- probably a lot if I lived in the neighbourhood. But there was something missing. Itās like a Chat GPT version of a pub.
Amazing pub, great service and food. Planning on visiting a lot from now on, the veggie/vegan food is fantastic. Great customer service who genuinely care.
We were originally treated to The Lion in Cliftonwood by my sister-in-law as being a proud Bristolian for 26years I had moved south I can honestly say this is probably the best thing she has ever done on this occasion I took my parents and grandmother on a trip to visit which may have started by me
Superb roasts with gluten and dairy free options available. Friendly place.
