La Cloche At The Lion

Went to the pub on Xmas eve at 5.30pm and it was closed.. Last time I was here on Bank Holiday, we were told to leave as they had no staff : Shame as its a nice pub when it's open!

Very disappointed experience here today!! We booked a table before hand for drinks and food @5pm but we turned earlier @4pm We were six. The pubs was empty literally! And they sat down us at the back where the heating was off . I did asked the manager three times , please let’s sit in one of this empty tables per sure we will leave before the football kick off . He insisted was not possible , no tables available . Absolutely ridiculous! After an hour an a half they decided a table was available next to the toilets . Anyway, we took it , it was **** cold . Food average and I don’t think we will go back there . It’s a shame local pubs don’t care about local customers.

This pub has potential to be. a great success. It is situated in a quiet residential road so it is unlikely to become a haven for youngsters.This is re-enforced by the price of drinks which are above other local prices. The pub does not seem to advertise that they show rugby or cricket. In all I enjoyed the experience but very few people were in there when I visited.

The Lion is a wonderful place for private paint and sip parties. Great food and atmosphere .

EXCELLENT FOOD! Standard drinks options at normal London prices, but the food was fantastic! We had Sunday roast for three and it was delicious and there was more than enough food. Our vegetarians had some good options: the veggie fish and chips was fantastic. They do offer a full vegetarian roast dinner but you have to book it 48hrs in advance and we only booked the day before.
