Golden Lion — Restaurant in Basingstoke and Deane

Below average Food, Paid £3.50 for large chips, standard sized portion arrived, it isn't a large compared to normal chip shop. Curry sauce was a large and was standard fare but the burger and sausage and bacon roll were disgusting, buns filled with fat, cheapest sausage used ( I wouldn't call ut a sausage as you'd struggle to find any meat), bacon was standard catering stuff. The burger was just wrong, no care taken, biggest piece of lettuce stem, soggy from fat, grizzle within the meat. There are plenty of better takeaways, go there not here....

Overpriced for portion size and quality

Overall they are barely better than charcoal grill, chicmex and are nowhere...

Not very clean, glasses always dirty and tables always sticky. The Manager is not welcoming and can be extremely rude and very unprofessional. The Manager is usually sitting at the bar drinking - gets a kick out of talking about employees, employees that have left and customers. (Making up stuff that isn’t true and not being very nice at all) The manager bars people on the simple fact that she doesn’t like them anymore. They don’t serve food but do it for parties, if you saw the kitchen it came out of you definitely wouldn’t risk eating it. Also they don’t clean the ice machine, so if you are thinking about going there be very careful...

Service was bad, they hardly payed any attention to us while we were there, had to wait 25 minutes after arriving and multiple attempts to get their attention just to order drinks, which then took another 10 minutes to arrive while we watched our same server take another tables order and drinks over before we saw ours.

No only that but they allowed a known peodofile move around without a mask and switch tables whenever they pleased.

Definitely not going back anytime soon given how they treat non-regular customers, they obviously don't care about trying to recoup their losses over the pandemic so I'm not going...
