Really lovely location and hotel. Food is great and they are well staffed and services are generally excellent, aside from busy periods. But overall would highly recommended.

The Black Lion is a nicely located pub in a country setting. The lunch menu was well developed with excellent assorted entrees, Our dishes were very well prepared and delicious. On a busy day the service was excellent at tables both inside and outside. Delightful experience.

We had a lovely overnight stay at the Black Lion. The hotel has a lovely atmosphere and our room was clean and comfortable. Staff are friendly and efficient. Parking is easy just up the road a short distance and is free. Lovely location overlooking the green and we enjoyed our evening stroll to the main High Street. Lovely walks in the surrounding area.

Staff literally bent over backwards to help with our needs, (we’d booked with two dogs, first time they’d had a hotel stay with us, one dog extremely hyper and needy.. ) had a table booked for a meal before realising he’d just annoy everyone and would have screamed like a child if left in the room, went downstairs to cancel the table and was told we could have the smaller closed off dining area to ourselves, we was absolutely thrilled and enjoyed a delicious 3 course meal in private with both dogs, so kind of the staff, outstanding customer service

We had a voucher for lunch at the Black Lion. We were very impressed. The food was delicious; I had a lovely scotch egg and my steak was just as I like it. Chips to die for.. My husband was delighted with his fish cake and pork cheeks. Jo O looked after us extremely well. A very good lunch experience.

My Sister and I visited today for lunch at the Black Lion in Long Melford. Gorgeous village with lots of pubs to choose from - but the very best of the bunch by a country mile was the Black Lion! Overlooking the beautiful village green and a warm welcome from Joe O - who was very professional. Super food, classy, cosy and just perfect! We just had a snack and drinks but it was five star - highly recommended.

Room was fine not the best but not the worst
Squeaky bed, light fitting on centre of room needs attention
The bathroom was lovely with all the soaps ect
I big issue I got overcharged on my drinks 2 white coffee and 2 sambuca £34
I was lucky it come up on my I phone the staff did agree a refund ended up £17.80 the sambuca was the smallest I’ve ever seen

We needed a 2 day break and the black lion provided us with a lovely stay where nothing could be faulted . The room was very nice with every comfort and an amazing shower. The staff were all fantastic in particular Jo in the restaurant . We'll the full Suffolk breakfast was to die for and probably added a few pounds to my weight ! We found thus hotel in top pubs to stay in England book . The restaurant was superb and they let us have our table 1 hour and a half early so we could play our board game . . Little things mean alot .
