Great traditional

Not good.The Landlord wasn't a nice person to me and my dog whatsoever.Supposed to be a "dog friendly" pub.He spoke of my dog in a very unfriendly manner.He spoke to me in a very derogatory manner.I was there to meet a lot of very dear and good friends of mine.He spoke to me like he did, in front of them.Very unprofessional and quite shocking to say the least.We left within ten minutes.He made sure to be loud and clear that we wasn't welcome.My friends were also upset about the way he spoke to me.They were also very apologetic that me and my super friendly and lovable two year old Rottweiler (Zeus) were treated like that.We won't be returning as we both deserve to be treated and spoken to much nicer and friendlier.

First time visiting this pub. On arrival, very welcoming friendly staff and a nice atmosphere. Sadly, we left feeling a bit deflated. £16.95 for a roast dinner and alot of the food that comes as standard with a roast were pricey extras at £4.50. The least I'd expect is Yorkshire pudding but that's extra too. Nothing in the way of vegetables. Just a few diced carrots and 6 runnerbeans. I'm happy to pay decent money but I like to feel that I've got what I paid for. I wish this business well but sadly it hasn't made me want to return.

We enjoyed a fantastic night at The Red Lion on Saturday night, great menu choice and the food was amazing, very tasty and good portion size, the staff were very attentive without being intrusive, we ordered a bottle of the house red wine which was really nice and the desserts were delicious. Highly recommended and reasonably priced. We will definitely book again.

Excellent food (I'd have liked more veg with my lamb, mind), very good service, friendly staff. A bit pricey, but I think that's the way it is for hospitality that has survived the pandemic.

Lovely atmosphere, friendly locals and staff. Food was amazing, had the beef roast and I can tell you it’s the best roast around, had cauliflower cheese side and it was as good as home made. Also great wine which is always a winner with me.Dietary restrictions: I did notice many gluten free options on the menu as my mother in law is GF.
