The food is delicious. Highly recommended. Choice of 3 meats for the Carvery, beautiful, the beef was so tender, mouth watering, big portion. The staff are lovely, nothing is too much trouble. Best place to go for a Sunday lunch. Very friendly atmosphere. Will definitely be back.
Amazing meal with our family. Food was fantastic and portions were huge!! The waiter and waitress were excellent. We will definitely be returning. Would highly recommend.
Me and my wife attend most Sundays.the food is very nice..and the staff are friendly.i would recommend it to any one
I stayed recently in my campervan on the grass alongside the pub. I can hardly believe it is the same place as the earlier poor review as I'm happy to say my experience was totally opposite, so hopefully theirs was an unfortunate exception. I found the people welcoming and friendly, the building is interesting and has some fascinating historical photographs on the walls, the food I had was tasty and plentiful(!). Facilities for the campervan were excellent. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend The Red Lion and am pretty sure I'll be visiting again.
I wasn't asked to write this, and I don't work for the pub! ;)
Warm welcome, good old fashioned pub, no slot machines or loud music.
Excellent meal here last night! The service was impeccable!! The staff were so friendly, welcoming, informative about the menu, accommodating and nice and chatty. The food was absolutely delicious and the cocktails outstanding! Will definitely come again next time I visit my Mum! Many thanks to them for a lovely evening!
Love, love, love this pub. All the staff are super friendly. The food and wines are amazing. Big portions for the Sunday roasts and amazing quality. Can't recommend it enough.
Having looked at the December sample menu, we called in the hope of finding a table at very last minute and the lovely lady on the phone was only too happy to accommodate us at such late notice.
We arrived 20 minutes later to a warm welcome and such cosy surroundings. Having never been here before we were shown to our seats, advised that the menus change every two weeks and sometimes dishes are replaced every few days.
Wow, what a menu. No sign of pate, soup of the day as starters, or ham egg and chips on the mains. Instead what greeted us was a menu full of delicious dishes, with options of having a tapas style evening or traditional three course.
Tonight we opted for three courses of gastro delight. We both had the scotch egg to begin, accompanied with the endless dish of firm, juicy olives. The scotch egg itself was delicately seasoned with a delicious fondant egg. Alongside was the homemade piccalilli.
For mains my husband had the filet stake with trimmings which he said was delicious. I had the seabass with fondant potatoes which was cooked so well and I left nothing.
Finally even though there was no space, we couldn't resist the sticky toffee pudding having seen it pass us to other tables. It was such a light sponge, plus the ice cream allowed me to indulge in more.
In summary this is not your traditional pub fayre, but a higher end restaurant with seriously good food, a wonderful setting and fantastic staff.
We will be going again.
Came here for my mums birthday the past two years, this time we were greeted with a birthday banner and card for my mum at the table which was a lovely touch that she very much appreciated. The pub is dog friendly, they put some water out next to our table for our dog which was very kind. The food was delicious, you can tell it’s all made with fresh produce, very tasty, presentation also great! The service was excellent, Beccy and the team were extremely accommodating and my mum couldn’t speak highly enough of the place the food and staff. Excellent trip out would recommend to anybody. Thank you for making my mums birthday such a great day out.
My friends and I have eaten here on a few occasions and it has to be one of the best places to eat in this area! Definitely beats most of the restaurants in Boston.
Absolutely delicious food and great service. Probably a little pricey for some but you get your moneys worth as the portions are very generous and you will enjoy every single bite! Love this place and would eat here breakfast, lunch and dinner if I could.
