Nice pub, well maintained interior. The pint I was poured unfortunately was bad as the barrel and pipes needed a good clean.

The White Lion is a lovely place to go to in Niton. Mum and I were staying in Niton and went to the pub one night for dinner. The food was yummy and mum, who is always looking for a good fish and chips, really enjoyed the one she ordered. The staff were amazing and helpful. I ordered the mussels (which were on the Specials board for that week) and rosemary fries and also enjoyed them. Everything, down to the salad, was made with care and fresh ingredients.
