Let the Lion Roar Again!
The Ickleton Lion is now under community ownership
Welcome to The Lion at Ickleton
We’re a community owned freehouse nestled on the beautiful Cambridgeshire, Essex border. We are proud to serve delicious food, great drinks and a friendly atmosphere for everyone.
Our menu celebrates classic, nostalgic pub dishes, reimagined with care and a modern twist. Wherever possible, we work with local suppliers to bring you the best of the region’s seasonal produce.
Situated right on the ancient Icknield Way and National Cycle Route 11, The Lion is the perfect stopping-off point for walkers, cyclists, and travellers looking for a place to relax and recharge. There’s a cycle rack conveniently located and visible from our garden.
Our beautiful garden features a pétanque pitch and plenty of space to unwind. We are dog friendly and dogs on leads are very welcome in both the garden and bar.
Come and give us a try, we’d love to see you and welcome you in.
