White Lion — Restaurant in Watford

Stepped off here with family and I cannot say enough good things about this pub. We had food and a couple of drinks. Food was super, especially the pizzas. The staff were amazing, it's amazing how good and nice every staff member is, great fun and was great with the kids. They have a great area for kids games and this really was well received by ours! Spoke to the owner, lovely lovely guy who made us feel so welcome. Be told us about a kids food offer for August which reduced the price... He didn't need to as we didn't know about it, but he did.

I was visiting Watford and during my stay I decided to walk about and explore a bit of the city.

Beautiful pub with delicious food and yummier stout. Friendly and conversational bartenders, and the location provides a very short drunken stumble to the station. Cleanest pub toilets I've ever seen.

I love the garden during the spring/summer. Never been here any other time, but I imagine that during the winter I'd enjoy watching the snooker inside while listening to the fantastic rock music they play on the speaker.

PLEASE have the fish and chips (the chips are the potatoeist chips I've ever had) and the pizza (ticks ALL the boxes). I might stop getting takeaway pizza and just come here instead.

Even the pub-goers all seem friendly but I'm too shy to talk...
