Looks lovely, just a shame the service is so poor! Bitterly disappointed especially as it was my birthday! Never again, their loss.

Forget the shopping and wrapping of gifts for a little while and treat yourself to one of our indulgent festive cream teas. The prefect way to relax and soak up the lovely atmosphere at this special time of year.

Nic is cooking up a storm in the Black Lion kitchen! Don't miss out on some amazing dishes, including an indulgent Sunday lunch. Come and enjoy the Melford Christmas fair on Sunday 29th and pop by for a cosy meal and relaxing drink by the roaring fires. W

Long Melford Fireworks tonight! Who's going? If you are popping over to watch the display then the Black Lion will be open from 6pm serving some of Nic's ( head chef) bonfire specials. Black pudding, sage and apple sausage rolls straight from the oven. F
