The White Lion, Soberton

I am not a real ale drinker, but my mother (who is) informs me they have a good selection. I am more of a lager or Caffreys type peson, so the choice was limited here.
I would NOT RECOMMEND this pub to anyone who wants a value meal and peace and quiet. The prices are shocking (6.95 for 5 prawns) and the portions small.
I might be 'out of touch' with what things cost in the Uk these days (I visit twice a year to my hometown nearby), but for that you can get a 3 course meal in Spain. (And more prawns for your money ;)

On a previous visit (when the past owenrs were in situ), we were given a sardonic grin when we arrived past 1230hrs on a Sunday and were expecting somewhere to sit and eat. We were there before opening time this time round, and got our choice of place. It soon filled up and proved that some folk have more money to spare than they are letting on.
The only saving grace this time round was the bar/serving staff had improved 100%
Despite this we will not be going back again.
