Love the bed and warm welcome and the new bathroom so so nice!

Margaret United States of America

Highly Delighted. Superb accommodation. 5* service. Luxurious rooms.

Martin United Kingdom

Very helpful and welcoming staff and friendly landlord Mark. Location is great to head into town or down to the river. The pub offers a great local vibe and is full of life in the evening. The rooms are good value for money and well kept. The coffee and chat with Mark before departing was great, I’m sure to be back again.

We have recently been refurbished and all rooms are now en suite & have tea and coffee making facilities & large TV's.

If you're looking for a proper traditional pub, where you'll receive a warm & friendly welcome, head on down to the Black Lion Surbiton. Family run by Father & Son for over 18 years, we show passion & enthusiasm in everything we do, from the hearty pub grub, including popular Sunday roasts, to the weekly pub quiz & regular live music nights. If that's not enough, we also show al the big football & rugby games on our 6 large screen TV's whilst serving steak & burger menus freshly prepared by our chef. We have a large patio garden equipped with heaters & covered areas for your comfort.

You'll find us just off Surbiton High Street on the corner of Brighton and Maple Road & whilst we'd love to have you dine with us providing a great selection of hearty traditional pub grub, if you fancy a change of scenery Surbiton offers a good selection of restaurants & bar's within walking distance. We are just a 5 minute stroll from the River Thames take a walk along the tow path or why not get a boat to Hampton Court Palace? A short walk & you'll find yourself in Kingston town centre famous for it's department stores Bentalls & John Lewis. We are very close to The Jockey Club at Sandown Racecourse & Sandown Sports where you can take a Skywalk Adventure, race the day away Go-Karting, play 18 holes at Sandown Park Golf Centre or Ski at the only dry slopes in London. With fantastic transport links an 18 minute train ride to Waterloo station, we access a wealth of adventure on our doorstep.
