   Excellent service this and last visit. Lovely surroundings and high quality finish. Food okay but not excellent for the price point. That said, one of the better local options so we’ll be back. Will try the Sunday dinner next.

   Absolutely lovely first time visit to the White Lion for our 5 year anniversary and it didn’t disappoint! The food was delicious, couldn’t fault a single thing between the both of us, perfect value for money for good portion sizes and outstanding quality. Top notch service from all of the staff. Quick service and lovely atmosphere. Loved the wood burners and the whole aesthetic of the place, had a really homely feel but still very clean and a high restaurant quality. Would highly recommend to anyone that hasn’t yet visited!

   I previously visited this pub for meals in July (soon after the re-opening) and December. I previously reviewed our experience & praised the quailty of the building restoration and food quality, but had some disappointments regarding the service of the young staff and the lack of heat in the meal, but biggest issue was the too-small meal portions. ☹️ NOT ANY MORE! 👍🏻 I am delighted to say that this time all these recent issues seem to have been addressed, with a more sensible adult portion size, attentive & friendly service, great beer and wonderful quailty (crispy) fish & chips! Apart from some odd flickering lighting upstairs, whole experience was really excellent with tasty food, great service and a warm & relaxing atmosphere. The fish batter was thin, crispy and tasty, the fish properly cooked, triple- roasted chips and crushed peas, all delicious. 😄 Meals are quite pricey, but one can accept this better when the quality & service is so good. 9.5/10 ! Please keep it up and we will be back again soon. 😊

   Friendly welcome on arrival and quickly seated at a table near a blazing log fire which was good on a cold night. Plenty of choice on the menu and our selection was full of flavour. Gemma's service was outstanding

    Very sad news, as soon as I looked at the new menu it is obviously not as before, the 3 week closure was surely for a reason, the new menu is very ‘ bread & butter’ a typical pub menu you get everywhere. It’s so disappointing that their talented young chef Jack is leaving soon. So a new easy to cater for menu is order of the day. Jacks cooking has really put this pub on the map for fabulous food in the area, somewhere that I have been very pleased to recommend to my friends, who have all enjoyed the cooking, who live out of the immediate area. It remains to be seen how the Whitc Lion will progress, the market they are going into is very price driven & requiring many bums on seats. This is the problem with community owned pubs, too many chiefs and not enough Indians in the kitchen, run by people with no experience of the trade. The management have made a serious error and should have invested more in building a great team in the kitchen, together with strong management. There has been a notable frequent change of staff front of house, with some rally good people no longer there. Currently they still retain some lovely staff, but have a very difficult time ahead of them with this change of direction. I wish them well obviously and will continue to frequent the restaurant, but with a little trepidation! I suspect the lovely wine list will be next for the chop, as the existing wine menu doesn’t fit with the new menu after Jack goes at the end of February, with such an enjoyable wine list, perhaps more for the connoisseur. Yes, I am unashamedly a foodie, so dreadfully disappointing to lose such a wonderful well constructed, expertly cooked menu that to be honest was too cheap for the quality of cooking. But that’s a management issue, who are controlled by many owners!

    Booked a table for 5.45pm , when we arrived the lady at the bar was very welcoming and attentive. We was taken to our table and at that point it was clear that nobody had looked at our booking as we requested side by side , however we began to look at the menu and was told that there was no chips - so we looked at the menu and ordered the fish each , for the lady to return and say that they had no fish ! We was left to look at the menu again and was forgotten about ! When a passer by realized we’d been waiting after an hour she said “ oh you’ve ordered haven’t you “ we said “ no” - we decided to leave and drive into Nantwich and find somewhere else , not ideal a total disappointment . As we left we heard a waitress explaining they had ran out of most food . Can’t believe this pub could run out of chips - very poor - even admitted by the bar lady as we left . The pub may aswell not have been open . Won’t be back - shame !

    To be honest the food was delicious and we very much like what you’ve done with the pub. The staff were very pleasant it’s just that there was a long wait for the food: over half an hour till we got the starters and then another 40 minutes until the main course. It’s a long time for a one year old to be stuck in a high chair! Wouldn’t have mattered so much if we had been just adults.

    Good experience overall. Always welcoming, good ambience, friendly service. Food mostly very good, vegans & vegetarians among us would prefer more choice on menu; I think truffle is used too often as a flavouring (and I'm not a fan).

    Sorry to report that the turkey meals we had (3 of them) were very disappointing. They came with one slice of turkey and NO potatoes. We had to pester the waitress and waiter a couple of times to eventually get some roast potatoes which were very overcooked and not edible. The lady who seemed to be in charge eventually brought us additional slices of turkey which was welcome but to be honest pretty tasteless. Oodles of red cabbage which I think was there to pad out the limited plate of food. My starter was charred celeriac which was bullet hard and I had to saw through it. The drinks were an age to come after ordering and we had to ask twice. All we got from the waiter was 'I will pass your feedback to the chef' - not acceptable. The waitress said' we will adjust the bill accordingly' but that didn't happen either. All in all, a very unsatisfactory experience. I know there was a Christmas party upstairs which the staff were also serving but that is no excuse. It the staff can't cope or the food is limited then the pub shouldn't accept any further bookings. I look forward to your response.

    White LionRespondió el 9 de diciembre de 2022Hi Kathy, thank you for the lovely review. Apologies for the chill, we've had a problem with the boiler but it's resolved now. Feel free to ask for a spot by one of the fires any time, they're the best spots for keeping toasty.

    When you look forward to a Brioche bun with your spicy chicken burger and you get a bap without explanation what a disappointment! Also a rarebit on a brioche is the thinest spread cheese concoction I’ve ever had ! Not a cheesy oozing melting topping I would have enjoyed !!

    I really do not enjoy bar service from trainees. The new boy” , asked me if I wanted a half or a “full” pint of beer, what the heck is that? We had to watch him struggling with our booking, we watched him struggle with a bottle of wine and two glasses, he wanted to know if we wanted to pay for the bottle straight away, when clearly we had booked a table for dinner. Frankly I actively hate being served by idiots.
