What Phil Girling doesn't like about The Red Lion Inn:
Experience spoilt by what seems to be an influx of male migrants, possibly from the nearby weathersfield camp. Sadly it seemed that they were encouraged to the pub and made locals and visitors uncomfortable Location: 5 View all feedback. What Voyage61763565035 likes about The Red Lion Inn:
I've been here a few times and every visit has been perfect! Amazing atmosphere in here and just wonderful pizza's!! They really have got it right! Will continue to visit and recommend to friends/family! If you haven't gone already, what are you doing!! Get yourself down there asap!! Well done guys View all feedback.
