Found it hard to choose from the menu. The Greek platter was disappointing. Service was bad. Having been to The Lion many times before I will not be returning for quite a while.

Stopover in Blaenavon What a lovely surprise, overnight stop on returning to the Midlands from watching rugby in Cardiff. Impressive refurbishment of old historic building to create cosy pub/restaurent with rooms. Atmosphere in evening was super, busy, satff very friendly and cask ale excellent. Food was 5 star both in the evening and at breakfast. (I had a very large flat iron sliced sirloin steak with garlic mushroom sauce grilled to perfection and wife a very agreeable cleanly fried fish + chips in evening whilst). All at reasonable price. Room and facilities very clean and comfortable. Visit to "Big Pit" not to be missed and will be back for a longer break to visit the rest of Blaenavon's heritage sites and Brecon Beacons.

Food was beautiful today, I had beef stroganoff with linguine and garlic bread, my husband had ham egg and chips, food was made to order . Jam was cut lovely and thick and tasted lovely. I told the man that served us to tell the chef to keep the stroganoff on the menu as it was so nice.
