Awesome service from the moment we walked through the door and food is outstanding. All staff are very friendly. We visited after a long day out starving and I am so pleased we chose here with 3 kids in tow including a 3 year old who just wanted pasta ? the guy serving us was so good with the children and he stopped to chat they loved it and they made it so easy. Food was delicious and big portions! If I lived on the island this would definitely be my number one spot for eating out at. Thank you ???

Decided to pop in for some lunch during our holiday. 2 adults and 4 kids. Was not disappointed in the slightest. Lovely greeting by the staff and we were seated straight away. Lovely menu on offer which also caters for coeliacs and vegans. The food arrived in good time and was simply delicious. Good portion sizes too. Food isn’t overpriced. It was an absolute pleasure to visit this place and we would definitely return.

I've been here before and the food was fantastic, however today I am the DJ and I am genuinely amazed. The pub usually cover 80 something at a time but today they are catering for a wedding of 200 and they seem to be doing it seemlessly. Everyone seems happy and the food looks as great as when I last ate here. Well done White Lion.

Ate there for the first time with two friends on Thursday using a Price is Wight voucher which was excellent value for money. Very good meals, well cooked and plenty of it. Service was good too. My one negative point however was that it was really cold, some heating would be a great addition!

Quaint family run feel pub! Excellent service from super friendly staff, accomodating for kids and generous portions which are also delicious and well cooked!If in the area or even a 30 min drive, well worth a diversion for some proper pug grub with flare.

Fantastic food. We wanted Sunday roast but in the evening so they kept 3 back for us. They were delicious everything cooked perfectly. The desserts were to die for. If I come back to the Island with definitely visit again. We have already started recommending The White Lion to Friends, Family etc. Well done to the friendly staff you are all perfect.

This wonderful Inn is a must to visit for food. Portion sizes are plentiful, with the option on some dishes to have a lighter bite.We visited fairly late on a Tuesday evening during the "eat out, to help out" scheme and were a bit worried that we wouldn't get a table. However the staff were fantastic at accomodating us and we were seated in front of an impressive fireplace.The food was glorious, I had Lasagne and quite honestly it was the best I had ever tasted, beautifully presented and fresh crisp salad. Prices were very fair and quality superb.The staff were so friendly and although they were getting ready to close for the evening, took time to stand and chat with us. ( socially distanced of course!)The Inn was immaculately clean and tastefully decorated, younger children will possibly love the changing colour lamp.We will definitely return to this place on our next visit.Thank you so much.

We had the pie, mash and liquor delivered. As Londoners brought up n Pie and Mash it was very tempting to have this delivered to our home, something to cheer us up!Good News it did, the pies were a very very good likeness and the liquor was wonderful. My only fault would be, but that is because I am rather greedy, there was not enough mash.It lovely and delivery on time perfectly GREAT
