Friendly, shabby chic village pub, with an eclectic clientele, serving excellent Thai food, cooked fresh to order by chef Gai. For starters we had the Mushroom and Veg Tempura with Coconut Tempura and Salt & Pepper Crispy Chicken Wings. Both were really good. I opted for the Pork Green Curry, fragrant and deftly spiced with a pleasing chilly kick often missing in some dumbed down Thai cooking. My wife had the Massaman curry, which was equally good. Highly recommended and we’ll be back soon. The only negative was the Harvey’s, which didn’t pass muster. I suspect the pipes could do with a clean, which prevents me giving a 5 rating.

Can't say enough good things about the food, can tell the chef is passionate about the food she produces. We had chicken wings, ribs, prawns and fish cakes to start, could not tell you a favourite as they were all phenomenal! Mains just as good. Lovely atmosphere, friendly locals and lovely staff. Perfect little pub really and live music too, what's not to like?! 5*

What can I say! Wow wow wow. The food was incredible. If you want true traditional Thai dishes then this you place. Also a very declared atmosphere. Live band, with re lard acoustics instrument. I’ll definitely be coming back. Thank you. ??Vegetarian options: Prawns

We love this pub - the Thai food is absolutely 10/10 every time we come for dinner. Friendly staff and great atmosphere. A real hidden gem in the local area and our favourite place to eat out.

Stunning food (Thai). Awesome vibe. Super friendly people. Highly
Fantastic food and amazing staff. Food was very tasty and felt like I was back in Thailand. I will definitely be returning to try the rest of the menu.

Have been to the Red Lion quite a few times and it has never failed to live up to expectations. The food is always spot on both in terms of quantity and quality. The staff are great and ask if the spicyness is ok as you can ask for more or less as it’s ordered. One of the the few places where the staff in a pub will come to your table to take orders, not only for food but for drinks as well. Very family friendly and frequently has live music on as well. All the staff are friendly and polite, nothing is too much trouble.

I had been intending to visit for some time due to all the rave reviews about the Thai food here. I’m not impressed, we had some prawn crackers which came with the most generic sweet chilli dressing, very watery and cheap, the sharing starter (this is an Iceland frozen selection with absolutely no authenticity whatsoever) the dim sum were ok, 5 very small dim sum for £8. We chose the Prawn pad Thai to share instead of rice which was about half a portion at best this was ok but very sweet and was oddly bulked out with chunks of tofu, my wife had the sweet and sour chicken (salad tomatoes and cucumber with some other bits and pieces with a tiny amount of cheap chicken at the bottom in a generic sweet and sour sauce from a bottle) very disappointing. I had a chicken green curry which to be fair was ok, totally lacking in heat (spice coming only from the sliced red chillis used to garnish). I must say I’m so disappointed with this visit and I’m not sure why it gets such great reviews. A friend was there at another table, they ordered a pork dish and were presented by with prawns, when they highlighted the mistake they were brought the restaurant order slip and told look, it says prawns “ok so we ordered pork and you thought we said prawns, yes. You can have this or wait 45 mins for a replacement dish”…. What???!!! No apology. I won’t be recommending the red lion which is a shame as I really hoped we’d found an authentic thai restaurant, unfortunately not. On the plus the music and beer were very good.
Absolutely fabulous
