I recently visited the White Lion to celebrate my father's birthday and it was amazing! The rustic look of the venue makes you feel comfortable and the general aesthetic is incredible!
The food was great and the staff were always on hand for any requests, drink top ups or just a chat!
The surrounding area is beautiful and full of fields with sheep and cows roaming around. However, you might want to visit surrounding areas (like Crewe or even Stoke) if you're wanting more things to do.
If you're looking to eat somewhere that gets you out of a busy town/city and wanting to enjoy high quality food, then I cannot recommend this place enough! Perfect place to enjoy food with those you love in a calm environment!
Very nice rooms here with complimentary tea and coffee and nice biscuits and a comfortable bed. Lovely countryside location with gorgeous seating area in the garden. Breakfast was delicious. Unfortunately no hot water for a shower. Slow to fix. Service needs slightly more attention to detail. Fingers marks on light switches etc. But I would stay again.
This is a Fantastic beautiful venue.The main bar and bar snug/lounge, are lovely in the older part of the building, then walking round into the restaurant it becomes very modern with a great mix of seating areas and sofas.
The back of the building has a very large patio area all under large heated umbrella's as well as a small outside bar and then also has a large garden grassed area with lots more outside benches,it could easily seat over 100 people comfortably, it's a fantastic area for outside seating and eating. Then there are also 2 decking area's near the large sets of patio type back doors. There are also 2 function rooms, so this venue has everything you need for,say a birthday or wedding etc including a stage area for a band.
As well as the venue the food is fantastic too, and they have some great beers on draft as well as the usual wine and spirits available.
I also have to give a huge thank you to the staff who looked after our large family over the weekend, the staff were brilliant and worked so hard and went out of they're way to please our family stay of all ages from 3yr olds to pensioners. The staff looked after 60 of us over the weekend and we're absolutely brilliant. Thank you the white lion, it was an absolute pleasure staying at your fantastic venue 🙏🏻🙏🏻
