Blue Lion is the best pub in Baddow. The food and hospitality is always spot on. The owners are so friendly and make you feel so welcome. To top it off, the food & drink served here are brilliant. We had the roast beef sandwich which was awesome. Lovely bread, lovely chips, lovely coleslaw and port
Popped in for a quick drink on Easter Sunday having visited the Blue Lion before and since most recent ownership change. Atmosphere was relaxed in the beer garden with friendly table service. The Blue Lion is dog friendly outside and there were plenty of other visitors with dogs - fresh water bowls
Brilliant pub, recently came under new ownership and really turned the place around. Prices can be a bit high, but the food is absolutely wonderful. The menu changes every so often with the season but always hits the spot. Lovely beer garden that's dog friendly too. Easy to book a table by calling t
Went to the Blue Lion for our daughter's birthday as a group of 10 people. As we booked before hand the pub had our table already layed out for us in a nice area away from the main bar where people were enjoying a good pint and watching the football on the TV. The staff were very attentive and frien
Fantastic evening at the Blue Lion which is under new management since November 2020. Staff were so friendly, food and drinks were delicious, with a smaller outside menu. The outside garden has been beautifully redesigned, with some undercover seating and had some tables with heaters, which can be r
Friendly, professional staff, with a cozy atmosphere, live music, and good food priced reasonably. Owner is hands on with the wait staff making sure everything goes smoothly. Would definitely come back for more!
I hadn't been here since pre covid times due to the previous problems there. Oh wow what a difference. Lovely staff with table service, fast service, nice music, heaters, the place is no longer a gathering for the druggies but a nice place for friends and family to have a beer. Only downside was clo
Popped in on recommendation from friends & we certainly weren't disappointed. Exactly the sort of local pub Great Baddow has been so desperate for. The burgers were cooked to perfection - the charcoal infused bun giving them the edge on everywhere else selling a burger. Very good attentive service
It's some years since I last visited, and The Blue Lion has changed considerably in that period.
No more the stand at the bar and order type of venue, instead you are invited to choose a table and served by pleasant and smartly dressed staff.
Little touches also add to the experience such as napk
Had a delicious Sunday roast here this week. It was Mother's day so most tables were taken but everything was very prompt and the staff were friendly and attentive. Roast potatoes were superb. Also had a really nice non-alcoholic Beavertown beer rather than just the boring Becks Blue often on offer
Dog friendly, just taken dog for walk in park and need sit down. Nice beer garden and they were happy to bring drinks out to me, they even had dog biscuits as treat for my dog.
Congratulations on a lovely venue: A lovely set lunch menu too at good value.
Since the new management we would highly recommend. Superb - every time!! Whether it is drinks, dinner or a group gathering The Blue Lion is superb.
Just had drinks but food looked good,friendly staff helpful,nice setting
Had a midweek catch up with a friend, and what a lovely little pub. Attentive bar staff, table service. Good drink menu. But the outside space is lovely. And you can bring a pup !

We've had a good think and we've decided to
Went here Sunday 18th of September with my family. All of us had 3 courses and all of us was very impressed with everything. My bruschetta, roast dinner, and dessert was fantastic. The staff was incredibly welcoming and attentive especially to my mother which was lovely to see. Again all the food wa
