The Black Lion - Reserva de mesa

I don't know where to begin! We had made a reservation and arrived a bit early, but were seated right away. After taking a look at the menu, our drink orders were promptly taken and delivered. We then placed our food order and the starters arrived quickly and were delicious. I had the homemade pate which was tasty, while my partner enjoyed the black pudding deep-fried in beer batter with mustard mayo. We didn't have to wait long for our mains, and they were cooked perfectly. My medium rare filet steak was juicy and tender, and the portion size was generous. My partner's homemade burger was huge and cooked to perfection. Even the children's meals (gammon and Lorna curry) were adult-sized port...

First time visiting the black lion with my partner. From the minute we arrived we was greeted with a warm welcome from John. To say the least nothing asked was a problem, always there to make us feel welcome. Our room in “Elwy” was beautiful,...top standard of cleanliness. The food was outstanding, since becoming a vegetarian a few months ago it is always a worry for flavourful food in restaurants…could not fault any of the food here everything we had eaten was full of flavour and all so moreish, hats of to the chef! Every question asked was answered and very informative in regards to the source of food and how it is prepared and cooked. The staff are absolutely amazing! Overall cannot fault...

I booked a Sunday dinner for Mother's Day at this restaurant. The atmosphere was nice and I had high hopes of returning in the future. However, we encountered some issues with the service. Our starters did not arrive, and we had to search for a waiter to inform them that they were missing. When the starters finally arrived, they were all cold. The main courses were served and were decent. When it came time for dessert, we once again had to search for a waitress. Some of the desserts, like the sunflowers, did not look like the pictures as the creamy topping had melted away. Overall, the service was slow and inefficient, and we ended up spending hours at the restaurant. I was disappointed with...

Staff where excellent and the ambience but that’s where it ended. The food was below average in particular the “Rack of Lamb” served as individual chops and where tough. The owner replied defending the individual chops. I could go on about the quality of the...whole meal but I would bore you and myself. I’ve written to the owner in a positive manner and have not requested nor want any concessions. Unfortunately I’ve found his responses extremely defensive and unprofessional. Feedback should be welcomed In summary, this is a respected establishment locally however, better you draw your own conclusions. Reserva una mesa ahora

Trash, ordered soup came out in a bread bowl and was so thick u could eat it with a folk (that was a first) and the bread was so hard it wasn’t edible. Then I ordered lamb chops and was served lamb chop that...was obviously frozen it was so tuff and a million potatoes. The green beans where cooked so much they tasted like water. Wine was good and needed lol and venue was ok. Just ok! I had a funny feeling when I can in and looked like a burger pub. Tbf the burgers looked great too. But any traditional food forget it!

Great welcome friendly service. Lots of choice on the menu all looked amazing! Beautifully presented food, plentiful and very delicious. Locally sourced burgers were very tasty and the sea bass cooked to perfection. Wednesday happy hour was a bonus. We had to ask...twice for condiments and the bill was slow to arrive, but the bar and restaurant were busy. Nice atmosphere, although Phil Collins on repeat did make our teenage sons bemused.

I had another excellent meal at The Black Lion, with fantastic service from the front of the house staff, especially Phil. I particularly loved the new starter of black pudding and liver pate. I ordered my usual filet steak and my daughter had the lamb shank, both were delicious. We were too full for dessert, but a complimentary apple crumble was brought to our table. The half bottles of Malbec were a perfect pairing with our meal.

A VERY well kept inn with a welcoming fire. Service very good, any meal is extremely well presented and appertising. Good selection of Robinson's ales, and a coffee that is worth a visit on it's own. Chips that you would die for Chunky and Cooked...with TLC.

Just had a fabulous lunch with friendly professional service, large meals (you'd better be hungry) made of delicious fresh food. Lovely village location by a little river.
