Never been before and fancied a pizza. Live no more than 10 miles away so booked. What a treat, my pizza (calzone) was superb, chock full and cooked to perfection. Wife had steak, chips etc, again presented really nicely and cooked perfectly. Staff were attentive but not in your face, pleasant and knew what they were doing. Recommended.

Food was great, but the menu has been the same for quite a while, so maybe needs a few changes. Whatever you order though is delicious 😋

Called in for a quick fix for tea and very impressed. The staff were very friendly and welcoming and a lovely place inside. Great selection of drinks available and we chose the pizzas for our meal which were superb. Will certainly go back again.

I booked a room for a friend visiting from the States. Eve, at the front desk, was very helpful. It's a nice hotel with a history located in the middle of Belper. Crackling fire, friendly pub, dining room with full menu. What more could one want?

We booked a family Christmas meal get together, 15 of us. The food was excellent. Everything came out together so no one was waiting, your choices were printed on the reverse of the place names so no one forgot what they had ordered. We …

Great pub, hotel & restaurant. Been coming here for the past year for drinks and food since moving back to the area. Excellent real ale, which I drink and the food we’ve tried is great too. Located in a central position in Belper, with car park, outside area and close to transport links.

The Lion Hotel is in a great location in the centre of Belper. There is onsite parking, and reception staff were excellent when we checked-in. The hotel has a bar and restaurant and a cracking atmosphere. Our room was nice, clean, tidy and …

The food was delicious here. I had the chicken shwarma, which was flavourful and was quite a big portion. The caramel brownie was very decadent and rich. Our waitress was lovely and attentive. It's a well priced pub in a nice setting.

My husband and I called in for lunch on a Saturday afternoon. We were seated in the pizza room which was empty, so nice and quiet. From the menu we chose the fish platter to share and had a side of chips. The food was served quickly and was piping hot. The service was very good and the staff were attentive ensuring we were happy with our meal.
