   We visited today for Sunday lunch. It was also my husbands 70th birthday and the end of a week full of celebrations. The staff were excellent. We were taken to the snug where our table was. Unfortunately there was a wonderful little dog with the part already in there. My husband is allergic to dogs so we asked if we could eat somewhere else due to this. They quickly sorted another table for us. I was also asked to make the staff aware of our situation regarding the allergy when we booked in future as it is a dog friendly pub. So please be aware of this. We were offered drinks and our food order was taken quickly too. We both had the traditional roast beef dinner. The food was excellent very very tasty beautifully hot and plenty of it. We could of had more of the vegetables and gravy if required. We did have more gravy . The staff were very attentive throughout our meal and we did not feel rushed at all. The pub soon filled up and the atmosphere was great. We also had dessert followed by coffee and tea. We asked for our bill and was very pleased with the total price. A lovely end to my husbands birthday week. Thankyou 🙂

   Another excellent visit to the Red Lion, the food and service was to a very high standard as always. The service was to a high standard and the food was outstanding. The orange bread and butter pudding was to die for. Please put it on your excellent menu more often. .

   Good food but would have been even better if alternative options had been found when ordering a gluten free version, rather than just removing the gluten, so ended up with no Yorkshire pudding, cauliflower cheese or the stuffing.

    2nd time eating here. Went back because it was so good the first time, and it did not disappoint! I am coeliac and the gluten free choice selection is outstanding. You must order the calamari!!!
