Strongers . left this review about The Golden Lion
The Golden Lion is a J-shaped pub with a dartboard on the left-hand wall before seating that runs up the long laminate floored left-hand side to a pool table at the left rear. A television in here was airing ITV, they seem to like this channel in these parts. In the smaller carpeted right-hand side of the pub are banquettes along the front window adjacent to a fireplace on the right-hand wall and more banquettes are found in the right rear. The jukebox was silent, but there was some rock music coming from a radio behind the counter that supports Standard keg alongside San Miguel and four hand pumps, two of which were on drawing Wainwright and an OK pint of Bewdley Brewery’s Baldwin, named after former Prime Minister Stanley Baldwin who was born locally in Bewdley. It’s hard to judge a pub when it’s so quiet, but the service was polite and I can imagine there being a good atmosphere when busier.

Just a quick pint, then I'm off left this review about The Golden Lion
Solid side-street local with fairly plain furniture and decoration throughout the U-shaped layout featuring the bar and lounge seating to the right as you enter, with the dartboard, games machines and pool table in the left-hand branch. A patio beer garden is also available at the back. Finding three of the four handpumps in use, Wainwright (with an old Thwaites clip), an excellent Baldwin IPA from nearby Bewdley (£4.00) and a Rosie's Pig cider were being served.
