The Golden Lion is an attractive, traditional English pub located next to St James Park and close to two royal palaces.  We always offer a warm and friendly welcome to all our customers, we sometimes even see a few famous faces, including Prince Charles once.

Food & Drink

We have a wide selection of draught beer including 4 real ales, one of which is regularly changing guest ale.  We have a choice of high quality wines from around the world and also offer some speciality spirits alongside our standard range.

The food is always freshly prepared by our in-house chef; our menu changes seasonally and always includes traditional pub favourites.

Our upstairs room with its own bar operates as a restaurant at lunch times and is available for private use in the evenings and at weekends and we will always do our best to cater for any of your party needs.  It also has its own balcony which you may smoke on.  Please come and visit us soon.

We have scotch eggs, pork pie and sausage rolls available on the bar after the kitchen closes.
