Having moved to the village earlier this year, it was so important for us to have a local pub at the heart of it.
The Red Lion, is an absolute asset to the community of Sapcote and a real hidden gem for those who don't live here.
The food is amazing and I'm told completely fresh which was evident and definitely unusual for a pub, the tapas is divine, which again, not the norm for a pub but it works so well with this place.
The owners and staff are always so friendly and we just love coming here!
It was actually a meal at The Red Lion that sold the village to us!
Thank you so much!
Went for a meal to this lovely place, the food was amazing and the range of gluten free options was impressive tasting as good as the rest. Would recommend that you need to book in advance and have a couple of hours window to eat as someone will be before or after you.

After seeing The Red Lion on Facebook for sometime now we finally decided to come and give them a go.
The biggest thing for us was finding a local business using fresh, local ingredients and this was clearly evident in the food we had.
A couple of tapas dishes to start and they were divine! pulled brisket tacos and lamb bonbons - both were extraordinary and presented very well.
For mains we had the bistro rump steak and the lamb cutlets, again excellent and cooked to perfection! The bistro rump is tall and juicy and looks like a fillet you might find in a high end restaurant - an absolute steal at £20!
We just could not resist the sound of the homemade desserts and again they did not disappoint - one of the best cheesecakes I have ever had and the sticky toffee pudding was also very nice.
Overall an amazing experience, a well kept modern pub with friendly and attentive staff, really good drinks selection and will be recommending to everyone.
