The beer garden

The best beer garden in Baldock

Huge, fully enclosed and tucked behind the High Street. Bring the dog, bring the family, and stay for one more.

Room for everyone, walls all round

We have a huge, fully enclosed beer garden and plenty of room inside at the bar too. Well behaved dogs are welcome in the garden and the bar area.

In summer it becomes home to our beer, gin and rum festivals, and every other year it plays host to Balstock, the biggest live music event around.

The garden

A huge enclosed garden behind the High Street

Step through the pub and you will find one of the White Lion's best kept secrets: a huge enclosed beer garden, tucked away behind the busy High Street.

Being enclosed makes it a relaxed spot for dog owners, and there is room to spread out on a sunny afternoon or settle in for a long summer evening.
