| on a snowy cold thursday night. what better is there than a real coal fire and a pint of real ale?. well at the british lion you get both. intresting choice of beer though.living in guiseley i was suprised to see a wharfebank and a saltaire brewerys beer both brewed 3 miles from where i live yet 260 miles from home. any way the abbotts was on top form, i noticed the menu sourced all it food locally,and there was fresh folkestone crab {not frozen}although it would have been that nite ...lol. oh and thanks to the folk who roasted the chestnuts on the fire, they were superb loiner8 - 8 Dec 2010 10:35 |
