Review Black Lion Pub - Great Dunmow

Eddie Rogers
Pleasantly surprised by the food here. Ordered a tuna sandwich which then came with fries and a side salad. Food was great and the pub was fairly quiet for a Saturday afternoon. They have several large screen TV'S and sky sports. Good value at around £10 for a sandwich chips and salad and half a Cider.

A local pub to us and it's always great in here. The kids are welcome, the food is amazing and the prices are normal! We absolutely love seeing the pub dogs too who are always very friendly - a highlight for the kids! Great beer garden too.

We had a delicious lunch here outside on the gorgeous terrace. Service was great, very very friendly. Oh and cute dogs too 😄

A charming country pub! The drink, food and staff are all fantastic. If you want a country pub with character this is a place to visit. We have visited a number of times and each time we have been made to feel welcomed by the staff and the landlord John alike. The springer spaniels are a lovely addition too.

Great traditional Pub with really good food and friendly service. We had the Black Lion salad, a panini and a Burger, all great with lovely drinks too. Followed by some great old fashioned deserts too, who doesn’t love Jam Roly-Poly pudding.

Lovely family friendly pub and good food. We were well accommodated at very short notice; all but 1 of the staff were extremely helpful and friendly.

One of the few authentic, owner - run pubs left in the area. Although it is dated, the engaging bar staff and quality of the no nonsense food more than compensates. Beers well kept and still serving honest PA types. A jewel, use it or lose it.

Cosy country pub complete with dogs! Love that.

Lovely little pub. Dog friendly, there's even a little bench seat next to the bar for dogs and owners. Full of character. Food service is slow, and the quality varies. Sea bass is excellent but small. Avoid the salads, you just get iceberg lettuce, 3 bits of carrot and 2 thin sclices of peppers for £12 Sandwiches are all delicious and are good sizes. Lasagne yummie. Baked potatoes- OK ish. Scampi burnt. French fries super yummie. I really like this pub but for food either pre order or make sure you plan for a long wait. For relaxing there, it is great. Friendly staff, good inside and outside areas. Full of character. Good parking. Prices for drinks are on par for the area. Bar snakes eg nibbles, crisps etc there is a good variety. On the whole, a lovely little pub and well worth a visit.

First time back in this pub for 30 years and we weren't disappointed, from the warm welcome and friendly staff to the great food all was lovely! We were so impressed with the landlord John's generosity and laid back ways. It reminded us of how pubs used to be, and we will definitely be going back for more.

I must have chosen the wrong day to go to this place. I waited over an hour for a Sunday roast,(We were first customers of the day, being half hour after they advertise that they are open for food). When it eventually arrived it was lukewarm, and I complained to the girl who served us, who was extremely disinterested. By the time we got halfway thru the meal it was stone cold, and we had certainly lost our appetites. We paid the full price, but complained again, but to no avail, she couldn't have been less interested. So, I would love to know why we have been apparently the only unhappy customers here.
