ROB Camra left this review about Golden Lion
A Holts pub, modernised to within an inch of its life. It's now one bland room in which the right hand side was all set up for dining even at 3:30 on a Friday afternoon. Drinkers are welcome at the left hand side though. Lots of generic prints on the wall, no doubt bought in a job lot from a Pubs R Us warehouse. 4 handpumps on the bar, but only Holts Bitter available along with Fullers London Pride. Very expensive for a Holts pub with my pint costing £2.76, it was in good nick though.

A Holts pub that has been modernised. Now similar to hundreds of eatery pubs nationwide. It does however have 4 handpumps serving Holts Bitter, Hat Trick and Two Hoots plus a guest ale called Lion on today. The pub is much cleaner than the others in the area but also a lot more sterile in atmosphere.
