| I wanted to like this pub – I really did, but something is just not right. It’s a one-room pub, the television was not intrusive and the there was background music playing, but there was definitely something utterly intangible about the place. The beer wasn’t bad, but not great. On offer were Theakston “Old Peculier”, Greene King’s awful “I.P.A.”, “York Guzzler” from The York Brewery, Castle Rock “Harvest Pale” and Maxim Brewery’s “Delilah”, which at £3.19 had me pulling my hair out! Very disappointing, with the most expensive beer that I bought over the entire four day sojourn. 4/10. 5thearlofwimbourne - 22 Oct 2011 14:40 |
| Sadly last visit will be the last tables full of dirty plates..beer not very good ..kids all overthe place..only 1 person doing everything..shame used to be a good pub. BAZNPAT - 5 Aug 2011 16:30 |
| My hero may, sadly, have departed BITE’s shores, but, worry not, I’m still around. Better not make separate references to a particular gardening implement and a certain black playing card suit in the same breath within MountainMan's earshot, otherwise he'll probably label you a racist!

| Mr Bonser, it is with regret that I see you probably won't respond to this comment as I note that you have thrown your teddy out of the pram and left this site due to the "abuse" you cite in relation to the reviews on this site. I was more than likely in the Golden Lion on the day of your visit, yes. I still fail to see how you can have the audacity to complain about reservations ? In this respect, I stand by my motion that your tirade was indeed "pompous and less than acurate". At the risk of repeating myself I will refrain sir, from calling you a fool - perhaps the term "cretin" would be more apt ? MountainMan - 6 Nov 2010 18:09 |
| Mr Mountain Man is of course correct about the location of this pub - and I am happy to stand corrected on this point. In all other respects, I am happy to stand by the factual accuracy of my review. Mr Mountain, were you in the pub when I visited ? You can form your own view as to whether my review is indeed a " pompous and less than accurate tirade" or indeed, whether there is a "racist undertone". Mr Mountain - you, sir are the fool, not I.
