Recently had lunch and whilst still tasty, it’s not as good as it used to be. Tuna melt was small and ciabatta wasn’t fresh. Chips we overcooked. Avocado club sandwich and purple slaw were great. Service as usual was good.
A wonderful pub and restaurant. I really enjoyed the food, and the atmosphere along with the service was great and fast. The location is also a nice area. Service was fast and the employees were polite. I do recommend. I cannot say anything about the rooms as I have not stayed in one, but I do imagine they are great.
Waited an absolute age to be served once we had been seated. There were other tables that were seated after us but served before us. There weren't many people in which made it even more frustrating as the staff seemed more interested in doing anything else apart from serving us. When the food finally arrived, it was Luke warm, to which I would normally complain, but at this point I just wanted to eat and get out. We've been a few times, but will definitely not return.
The Red Lion is a steady-hand when it comes to the Sunday pub-lunch with a warm atmosphere, and an excellent internal theme. The food was rather good, excellent value and reasonably well presented. Excellent portion of fish and my dining partner’s steak was cooked perfectly. The only minor gripes we had were the availability of one of the more specialist beers on the day (Theakstone’s Summit specifically) and a slightly wanting portion of roast potatoes in my dining partner’s meal - though they were excellently cooked! Overall a very pleasant and excellent value experience that I would recommend, especially for a family outing.
Went here for tea with my husband and two young sons, ordered the Sunday roast, myself and my husband both agreed it was best Sunday roast we had ever had out, it was beautiful, both got the slow roasted beef and Yorkshire puddings were great too. Plenty of choice for children's meals and all were good portion sizes. Well worth a visit. I would definitely come back here if i was visiting the area again.
