About This Pub
Ah, let me tell you about The White Lion – it's one of those pubs that just feels like a proper hidden gem in the countryside. From the reviews I've seen, folks are raving about the beers; they're spot on, with a fantastic range that keeps you coming back for more. The staff really stand out too – they're dead friendly and go the extra mile, like when someone had a car breakdown and the team made them feel right at ease. It's got that cosy, community-owned charm that makes you feel like you're chatting with old mates, and being dog-friendly is a nice touch for anyone out on a walk. On the downside, they don't do food in-house, so if you're peckish beyond a bag of crisps, you might have to plan around that fish and chips van on Tuesdays. Still, with such high ratings and a solid 4.7 average, it's clear this place knows how to deliver a good time without the frills. If you're in the area, it's definitely worth popping in for a pint and seeing what all the fuss is about – you'd be hard-pressed not to leave with a smile.

My husband pop in yesterday came back and told me he found a lovely pub he said fantastic beer so so friendly thanknyou for making him feel welcome well he going to take me to the pub so I can see for myself can see for myself
The white Lion in Rempstone, a little pub with fantastic beers 🍻 a lovely building inside and outside dog friendly pub with lovely service behind the bar by Sarah.
Whilst towing our caravan, our car broke down with 2 children and a dog in the village of Rempstone. Whilst awaiting recovery I arrived at the pub on friday evening to get us into the warm and find safe haven. It turns out that I'd found Britian's friendliest pub!! The staff went out of their way to make us feel welcome and ensure we were set up on wifi, fed cobs and kept comfortable. Simone and her partner really went above and beyond to ensure we were looked after.
The locals offered us a very warm welcome too and no-one minded 2 sleeping children taking up space on the benches. And, at pub closing time (when we still hadn't been rescued - 6 hours along), one local came to speak to me to ensure that we had a bed for the children for the night - this village really is full of the nicest people in the country!
If our path ever takes us to Rempstone again, I will look forward to visiting. Can't thank the community of Rempstone village enough for your warm welcome and hospitality in our moment of need.
Lovely little country pub with great beers, very friendly service and atmosphere.
They don't serve food but there's a very good fish and chips van calls round every Tuesday evening, and your welcome to eat them in the pub.
P.s don't tell everyone as you get everyone in.
Love the place
