The Red Lion

We didn't have a table booked but we're accommodated and looked after very well and quickly.
Food was absolutely fantastic! And the staff were very friendly and engaging. Lovely atmosphere in the pub as well

Had a nice evening out for a meal here but I'd like return just for drinks ideally as beautiful building with history. Meal was excellent but pricey! One of us were forgotten about regarding bringing dessert out,someone else had to keep asking for a sauce. New barman I'm guessing told me my Shiraz was "about....,hang on I'll check!" I wasn't going to hand over my money til I knew exactly,not about! Unfortunately cost what I'd spend on a bottle but I guess that's how it is with Wine 🍷 in pubs and restaurants

Very ambient pub with wooden panelling everywhere. The paper menus were big enough to have a larger font for the clientele eye sight. Mostly over 50s at 545pm. Specials board had good fish selection. Prices reflected neighborhood. Same as city centre. Average plate is £18-£20 . Worth a visit but expect to book. Tables get turned with a polite reminder. Check the bill doesn't include drinks already paid for. This restaurant has a working formula. Expect it will still be there in another 10 years.

Bustling is a great way to describe The Red Lion, it was Sunday lunch time and the tables filled quickly, the staff were friendly and engaging, the food fab and the table clearing was almost surgically clean.
We had the roasts and they were great, rare beef, great chicken, the roast potatoes were, as with most places, not like home cooked, but bulk cooking is not great for potatoes, The vegetables were alsi well cooked and the cauliflower cheese the best my partner had tasted.
The Desserts were equally impressive, we booked another meal there before leaving

This has been our go to place for some years. Experience yesterday was not 5 star. Service v slow despite being quiet. Not all meals up to usual standard. Disappointing for family celebration and 12% service charge still on the bill.

Really nice olde worlde atmosphere with real fire. Attentive service and varied menu .my friends Plaice and Vienesse Schnitzel looked delicious ,my gnocchi was horrible, possibly cooked too early and kept imunder heat ,dried out,overpowering tomatoe sauce and nothing special roughly chopped vegetables. Pub kindly did not charge me,Thankyou

What can I say about The Red Lion?
The food here is delicious, I've never had a bad meal here. The menu is really varied, but the fish offerings are excellent. One of the best places to eat if you love sea food. There is an excellent selection of drinks available, they have a great wine list. I would say you definitely need to book in order to avoid not getting a table as it is very popular.
The staff are lovely, friendly and chatty too.

Really good quality food with quite a wide menu including pub classics and more. Prices reflect quality and service was very good too - we arrived without a booking but were accommodated which was much appreciated. Although there isn't a child's menu we were told the kitchen could prepare more or less anything. Very happy overall.
