The Golden Lion Pub in Wrecsam

Chester Rd, Rossett, Wrexham LL12 0HN

About This Pub

Oh, let me tell you about The Golden Lion – it's one of those pubs that just feels like a proper gem in the area. From the moment you step in, you're greeted by this lovely, well-kept space that's as pretty outside with its flower pots as it is inside, really giving off that caring touch. The food is a standout; we had a go at their three-course lunch and it was all delicious, with generous portions that hit the spot without breaking the bank. And the staff? They're an absolute delight, always cheerful and on hand to sort you out, whether it's finding a table or dealing with any little requests. It's got a great range of local beers too, making it ideal for a casual get-together. On the downside, it can get a tad lively with bigger groups, so if you're after a peaceful evening, you might want to pick your time wisely. All in all, it's a solid choice for anyone looking for a good meal and a warm welcome – I'd definitely pop back for more.

Pros and Cons

Pros

The place has a really beautiful and well-maintained vibe, both inside and out, with gorgeous flower pots that show real attention to detail.
The food is absolutely spot on – think fantastic meals from their lunch menu, all delicious and well worth the moderate prices.
Staff are incredibly friendly and efficient, always going the extra mile to make you feel welcome and sorted.
They've got a great selection of local beers and a charming atmosphere that's perfect for a relaxed catch-up with mates.
It's dog-friendly, which is brilliant if you're popping in with your furry friend on a rainy day.

Cons

It can get a bit noisy with larger groups, which might disrupt a quiet chat, though that's more down to the lively crowd than the venue itself.

Stopped over for some food on the way home to Wilmslow from Montgomery due to the great reviews (see, your reviews matter). Beautiful place, inside and outside. Gorgeous pots full of flowers showing a real caring attitude and attention to detail. It was raining and I had the dog and her blanket so didn’t get the chance to photograph. Made to feel very welcome, even though we hadn't booked on a Saturday afternoon. We were able to sit on a table reserved for later. Fabulous menu choice. We chose the salmon and the chicken. Beautifully cooked, superb flavours (mine had pesto and cheese and ricotta, wrapped in bacon or prosciutto). Point to mention for the chefs, really... perhaps we could have a choice of al dente or 'normal' veg... I really don't like hard broccoli. If I'd realised I would've asked for soft. But the food was to die for, it really was. Managed to catch one of the chefs in the car park and said the chicken and salmon were devine. On arrival, I accidentally dropped my dog's food and smashed the glass bowl. Embarrassed but the staff member was so lovely and said he held the record for dropping things so it was nothing. Highly recommend but it's VERY busy so to avoid disappointment I would book. Wish we lived nearer because this would be a regular little stop-off if it were. Thank you to all the staff for a lovely end to our week away🥰

Fantastic meal at the Golden lion. We opted for the 3 course lunch menu & all of the food was delicious. The staff were all so friendly & efficient. Nothing was too much trouble. Thank you.

After not having visited for many years, booked a table with a friend for an overdue catch up and what a great choice it turned out to be. Due to some health issues, I'd asked for a quiet table but a larger party in the same area proved a little noisy(that's my issue, not a fault of the establishment or anyone around). Requested a move outside, a lovely lady very kindly helped us grab one with no issue at all. We both opted for the Fish & Chips and it was delicious! The batter was perfect, light and not greasy as it should be and the chips super tasty too....a very good sized portion too. I'll definitely not leave it as long between the next visit with such lovely food on offer😊 I have to leave a special mention for the team here as during our visit we spoke to a few...what a fabulous bunch of really lovely people! Warm, helpful, considerate and in my opinion just a credit to the Golden Lion😊 Thank you for a lovely evening 😊
