Creator's Key Takeaways

I travel solo and I basically hate everyone.

I had three of these one evening and the following evening the waitress brought me a fourth that she'd saved.

The food in the main dining room has always arrived in good time and at a decent temperature.

I absolutely loved the starter. It was hot. It was tasty.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Ask for extra food if you want more, but don't waste it.
Be early to get a seat at the Golden Lion, especially on a C day.
Get the shoe pastry of the day at afternoon tea.
