Tucked away in the quaint village of Marsworth, The White Lion is a delightful 18th century canal side pub providing customers plenty of dining options; the bar, a cosy restaurant and a large beer garden to catch a glimpse of the sun on a balmy day.

Keeping in mind the owner and Chef Michael Brooke's prior stints at Claridge's and The Berkeley, diners look forward to savour some delicious gastropub staples with subtle French touches. Think mixed salad of roast duck; deep fried whitebait with homemade tartar; steak and ale pie served with mash, seasonal vegetables and gravy, and braised leg of Welsh lamb cooked with a vegetable and pulse broth. Pub classics of battered cod with chips and ploughman's lunch of ham or mature cheddar are not forgotten either.

Nature lovers could step out for a leisurely Sunday afternoon stroll around the canals near Marsworth or just watch the narrow boats from the beer garden.
