It was our Mothers birthday last week & we were recommended to try the Red Lion for the first in many years, we were pleasantly surprised by the refurbishment of the venue and especially the reception we received from all the staff. There was a great selection of dishes, freshly cooked to a high standard. The service we received was... More

After reading on of the recent reviews I feel I have to write myself! Visiting the Red Lion after a long journey from Devon Myself and my family received one of the warmest welcomes from Beth and her team. Excellent food and service. with the staff always checking to make sure everything was ok and to see if we required... More

In total contrast to the last review, I visit regularly and I have never had cause to complain or felt anything less than satisfied by the extremely warm and friendly welcome we receive from what we know to be the manageress. Each visit has a lovely ambience, friendly staff with great polite service and delicious food! We are always remembered... More

We received a lukewarm greeting by a lady who we assumed to be the manager. Once she had checked our booking she showed us to our seats with our menus and abandoned us! We eventually managed to flag down the barman to ask for a drink and he also took our order a bit later. The manager seemed to be... More

Went for lunch today, havent been before but had heard good things about it. Plenty of parking spaces. Chickens wandering around the back garden. Inside it was spotlessly clean throughout and the staff attentive. We were told that the food may take a little longer than usual due to a little work going on in the kitchen. Drinks orders were...

I'm a long-standing fan of this place. Most recently, I dined alone and perhaps in something less than my finest clothing. This is perhaps why the lady who acted as maitre d' looked me up and down several times as she walked to greet me, and perhaps why, whilst as I was ordering, her eyes kept flicking towards my dusty...

A great upgrade to what was a terrible pub. I've seen this pub in various incarnations since the late 80's when I moved near here. It got progressively worse over the years until the current owners took over. Good food now, can be a little fussy. Great beers. Still hasn't quite got that classic local feel, but it's getting there.

Booked for a table for 4 for Sunday lunch 6th April 2013. Arrived to a rather pleasant interior and nicely presented pub. Sat for lunch and asked for water and ice which was forgotten immediately and we had to request it again. Menu had a great choice which I thought was very good. The starter took a long time to...

We booked well in advance for Mothering Sunday , we were a table for 8 booked in for 4pm , we arrived to find the pub busy in total chaos and the staff seemed totally disorganised to the point that we waited from 4pm and eventually got given our table at 6pm ....2 hours later !!!!. The food was ok... More
