The Lion of Beaconsfield is a handsome coaching inn in the heart of Old Beaconsfield that has been winning hearts since its current management took over, earning the kind of devoted following that only comes from consistently doing things well. The building is beautiful — inviting, intimate, full of the character of a genuine English inn — and the kitchen has matched it with Sunday roasts and weekday dinners that reviewers describe as delicious: well-portioned, carefully cooked and worth coming back for. The roast duck, in particular, has been mentioned with real enthusiasm.
Live music evenings have become something of a fixture here — the Odyssey nights and Soul and Motown events filling the room with a warmth that suits the setting perfectly — and the pub handles private functions with a level of care that has made it a trusted venue for both business and personal occasions. The Lion of Beaconsfield understands what a good English inn should feel like, and has done the work to make it a reality.
