The Golden Lion

Easily best pub in the village. Don't judge a book by it's cover. Looks quite tired on the outside, but inside lovely authentic country pub atmosphere. Friendly staff and a nice all round experience

The Golden Lion is the quintessential cosy gastro-pub. It serves excellent food is the most exquisite environment. I had the short rib — simply wonderful flavors. My wife had the duck —also great. We shared the jam rolly poly dessert. Highly recommended!!

Absolutely brilliant pub! Fantastic service by super friendly team, great drinks, lighting, atmosphere and really tasty food. Loved our evening there.

Best pub in the village by far. Well kept ale with local choices. Delicious food made by chefs that clearly know and care. Top quality without being wanky. Staff were wonderfully welcoming, attentive and friendly. Great atmosphere. Exceptional pub evening all round. Can't wait to come back!

Great pub with rooms. Friendly staff, great food and drink. Reasonably priced.

We had a lovely time here - a real rustic charm and atmosphere. Would highly recommend

Always great service and delicious food, plus a lovely relaxing atmosphere

Our favourite restaurant. Great atmosphere. Friendly staff. Good food. Lovely location and building. Mixed and varied new menu with options for those that need them.

Very nice pub a short walk away from where we were staying. The Sunday roast was excellent, the staff were helpful and gave a good service. Being a dog friendly place was also benefit. Worth a visit.

One of my favourite places. Have the salmon fishcakes.

Now they've got Jam Roly Poly, which I think we all agree is the king of desserts!

Just home from a week away at a beautiful Holiday at Home property in the village of Osmotherley in North Yorkshire, the icing on the cake was our visits to the Golden Lion a village pub and then some!!!
On our first visit which was just after opening the first thing we noticed is that nearly all tables were displaying reserved cards, in less than an hour the tables began to fill and not long after the pub was full of people placing orders for food, we were told that this is normal by the customers and staff alike, we quickly enquired if there was any availability for several days throughout our stay, fortunately we were in luck.
All I can say is the staff are fantastic, the beer is perfectly kept and the food is outstanding. I'd like to thank all the staff for making us feel welcome, and a massive thank you to James as he has looked after us so well on every visit.
All I can say to the people reading the reviews is if you are in the area call in and give it a go you won't be disappointed.

Attractive traditional pub, with well presented conremporary bedrooms. Great shower. Excellent evening meal and breakfast. Great for walkers as right on Cleveland Way.

Drove down from Whitley Bay to see family who were up from Dorset for a wedding.
Smashing little pub. Dog friendly. Amazing roast beef 😋
If we are in the area again , we'll be back 👍🏼

The food was excellent and the welcome was warm. We both had the beef bourguignon with cheddar mash and dumplings.
The dessert was also of a high quality. The staff were all very attentive. We will return! Would not hesitate to recommend.

Lovey lovely pub. Worth a trip from London. Landlord so charismatic. Can see why it's Rishi's favourite.

I enjoyed eating here today with my family gorgeous pub and I enjoy the drinks here it’s dog friendly and the mussels were amazing I’d 100% suggest you try it

The service was excellent. Plenty of gluten free options. And the steak? Not kidding, I wrote home about it.

Always great to return to my roots and to The Golden Lion where the wonderful food, welcoming atmosphere and reliable cosiness of the pub is so good for the soul. We had a memorable meal served by a friendly waitress - I didn't know a fishcake could taste so good. Back in the south-east now with a right monk on!

We went yesterday for Sunday lunch. What a brilliant place, couldn't fault the waiting staff, they were fantastic and the service was perfect. The food was fantastic, I can't wait to see what the usual week day menu is like. Myfamily will definitely go back,

We had a fantastic stay and meal at The Golden Lion.
The food was great with friendly & attentive service.
The rooms are spacious, clean and comfortable with excellent shower facilities.
It’s set in a beautiful area with great walks nearby. Highly recommend.
