   Went for a Sunday roast and the food was unfortunately cold and the roast potatoes were rock hard. We booked a table for 3pm. Everything felt very rushed. We paid our food bill at the bar at 4pm and spent £200 for 8 of us (4 adults, 4 children). The pub closes at 5pm and when we asked for more drinks at 4:10pm we were told we can’t have any because they had already cashed up. Only after going back to the bar to ask again and state we would be gone by 5pm and say surely they can serve us a drink as they’re not closed yet we were told we will see what we can do and they eventually let us order more drinks. Not very welcoming at all and we won’t be returning.

   As always, an outstanding meal at the Red Lion. The staff were attentive and friendly, talking us through the specials and adjusting meals to suit. The food was served promptly and as always, absolutely delicious. This restaurant has fast become our favourite place to eat and cannot wait to return.

   We booked for Valentines Day and had a lovely evening. The food and the service was excellent, we couldn't find fault with anything, all of the staff worked hard to ensure the diners had a great experience. Our waitress looked after us perfectly and we highly recommend The Red Lion. Keep up the great work Red Lion

   The beer battered haddock was excellent with crispy chips and crushed peas a delight. The staff were attentive and food arrived quickly. Well worth a visit, we will be back.
