Friendly welcome. Great pint (well, several actually!). Truly wonderful Fish Pie. Clean, comfortable and well presented room. Good cooked breakfast. Fishermen discussing their catches in the bar at the end of their day. A great boozer. I'd go back there anytime.

We ate here three times during a week long stay in Padstow. The food is excellent. Between the four of us we sampled quite a wide selection over the three nights. Everything we ate was really well cooked, well presented and really tasty. The portions are huge. Main meals were mostly around £9-£11 with steaks being £16.50. All of t... More

We are a young couple in our early 20's, and traveled from north London to Padstow for a quiet relaxing break. Used to come to Padstow with the family years ago. Glad we chose Golden Lion, as soon as we got there after over 5hrs on the road, the friendly & welcoming staff showed us up to room 2. We... More

We stayed here for one night whilst walkng the coast path. The rooms were nice and a decent size. The bathroom was a good size too and very clean. The only drawback was that the rooms were over the bar and after a long day's walk an early night wasn't really an option as I could practically hear conversations that... More

Wow, another fantastic stay at the Golden Lion!! We stayed here last year and decided to come again this year, but this time it was our honeymoon!! After a very long drive from Stockport on Sunday 9th September, we were going to have an early night. However, on arrival, we were treated to the beautiful sound of what we thought... More

Although the room and food was very good, the inconsiderate management decision to allow an extremely raucous party to take place in the bar beneath my room from mid-evening till well past 1am was unbelievable and thoroughly spoilt the whole experience. The noise was deafening for well over 4 hours and left me so infuriated I found it difficult to... More

My wife and i looked long and hard for a good meal in Padstow. We found it when we walked into the Golden lion Pub, from walking into the bar we were given good service, the food was hot and plenty of it. The food was very good value. We will most definitely be eating here again. A good Cornish... More

Massive prawns in it, big chunks of salmon and white fish, in a creamy lovely sauce, topped off with mash potatoe and cheese. Completly... More

We stayed here in the summer whilst walking from Port Issac to Constantine bay. you can appreciate the history by the fact the floors wren't flat but the 3 foot thick walls are great - no noise despite staying above a busy pub on the main street. Great food, friendly service from everyone and an enormous breakfast to send us... More

We haven't stayed here but have eaten Sunday lunch on several occasions. It never fails to disappoint, the portions are hearty and there is always plenty of meat and extra gravy, you won't need to eat again for the rest of the day! Service is quick and friendly, make sure you book though because it gets very busy.
