| Got to say the pub is great, food is good and it gets very busy on a weekend, the entertainment is spot on. It is very rare someone has a bad comment about the place. One of the best pubs in the dale.[Report for Removal] | Laura Ireshopeburn Durham |

| I would not recommend a visit the Golden Lion. My parents and I went there on Easter Monday for lunch. We chose our meals (quite expensive pub prices) and sat back and waited - waited - and waited - nearly an hour. Our order had not been anything that would require lengthy or detailed preparation - chilli, cod and a scampi - very average pub fayre. Eventually we were given some knives and forks - which raised our spirits as we felt our long awaited meal would be with us soon. We then watched as two other parties left having had their monies refunded as they were not prepared to wait any longer. Another 15 minutes passed so we asked to leave but were told the food was on its way. At no real time did the staff appear to be anything other than indifferent - I cannot say they were rude - they just seemed unconcerned. At one point the waitress mumbled something about the restaurant being very busy - which presumeably was why we had to wait. Upon leaving I visited the ladies toilet which was incidentally set next to the restaurant - and was empty - with no diners and no indication that diners had ever been in there that lunchtime! The table next to us was full of what were obviously locals - and we got the impression one of them actually worked there but was their day off - when people asked for their money back they seemed to find this funny - their food certainly came faster than anyone else's. The food was okay - but not worth the wait and it spoiled what had otherwise been a pleasant day - The lie about the busy restaurant was just pointless! So I will not be returning - sorry Golden Lion - a nice pub but lousy service![Report for Removal] | Julia Bradley Sunderland Tyne and Wear |
