The pub reopened in June 2026 after being closed for over a year, with food planned to be reintroduced after the World Cup.

On the main road into Godalming on the corner of Hare Lane, this pub has been in operation for some 300 years and is renowned for its live music.

There is one large bar with distinct areas: the bar itself and a lounge-type area which leads to the part where musicians usually perform. Doors at the back lead to a patio area with a large awning to protect smokers, thence to a good-sized garden with canopied seating. A glass panel exposes the workings of the hand pumps. Well-behaved dogs are welcome inside, as are families.

A long-standing feature of the Three Lions is live music, with something held most nights. Prior to reopening this was:

Monday - Open Mic

Tuesday - Country & Western

Wednesday - Quiz

Thursday - Jazz & Swing

Friday & Saturday - various bands or soloists

Sunday Acoustic Music from 4pm

Historic Interest

There has been a pub on this site for 300 years & most of the building is at least as old as that. On the main road into Godalming on the corner of Hare Lane, this pub has been in operation for some 300 years, with records going back to at least 1723. In 1891 it passed to Lascelles Tickner of Guildford, which was taken over by Friary, Holroyd and Healy’s (also of Guildford) in the 1920’s. Via further mergers ownership passed to Ind Coope, thence to Allied Lyons and Carlsberg Tetley. However a few years ago it was acquired by Shepherd Neame of Faversham. A more detailed history can be found on the website.
