Blue Lion - Denbighshire

We spontaneously decided to have Sunday lunch at the Blue Lion and were able to easily book a table. Before arriving at the pub around 1:00pm, we took a leisurely walk to the falls just outside the village. The atmosphere at the pub was welcoming and the staff were friendly and courteous. We were seated in a cozy dining room and ordered the traditional Sunday lunch. We were pleasantly surprised by the quality of the food, with generous portions of perfectly cooked beef, crispy Yorkshire pudding with crispy onions, roast potatoes, stuffing, parsnips, sprouts, red cabbage, and sweet carrots. All the vegetables were cooked perfectly. We highly recommend the Blue Lion to anyone looking for a delicious meal in a warm and inviting environment.

I stayed at this restaurant for one night in August with friends after a day on Lake Bala. We booked two lovely double rooms that were very comfortable, extremely clean, and well-decorated. We had a delicious meal of two fish and chips and two burgers, all homemade. The continental breakfast, which was included in the affordable room rate, was fantastic. It was laid out for self-service and kept us full all day. The highlight of our stay was the warm welcome from Donna. She was incredibly friendly and helpful, even arranging for us to store our bikes inside. The family atmosphere of the pub was wonderful. I would highly recommend staying here and will definitely return when I'm in the area again. Thank you!

The place was pleasant and service was good, but the cheese burger was only just edible. The bun was toasted to charcoal and the burger was overcooked, tough, chewy and tasteless. Had better frozen burger from Aldi.

We visited here yesterday evening having booked and ordered in advance with us being such a big party. We were booked for 6pm and didn't get starters until 7.10 then mains at 7.45! The appetizers/started were lovely we should of stopped there. Some of the mains that arrived were not great. The smothered chicken was over cooked and burnt, the mixed grill did not have all the different meats it said on the menu, the steak was chewy and the mushroom sauce we received was actually peppercorn! We paid and left as the waitress was already in tears from numerous complaints so didn't feel we could say too much! The service was fine but the food let it down.

We absolutely love this place! Our second time back and staying in the apartments over the road. The apartments are fantastic, have everything you could need with a added bonus of a hot tub! We ate in the pub, food was lovely and well priced. Our visit unfortunately coincided with the awful weather we had and we couldn't make it the first night but had great communication with Lucy over 2 days and was so glad we made it for 1 night. We will absolutely be back for a 3rd time!!
