What Michael Holmes doesn't like about Red Lion Inn:
This is the worst experience I have ever had. I really wish I could get my money back. It was very loud, disorganized and terrible overall. The waiters didn't know which tables belonged to them. The people there were incredibly loud, enough to visibly disturb everyone else, and nobody did anything about it. The food was badly seasoned and cooked. The portions were tiny. Never come here, never. It is a terrible hotel... View all feedback. What Elouise Rice likes about Red Lion Inn:
We had dinner in the restaurant. I had a churrasco steak and my wife had a spaghetti dish with shrimp. Both meals were flavorful and cooked properly. No other guests in the restaurant, but we were early and the hotel didn't seem to be very busy the week we were there. Pleasant food. View all feedback.

This friendly pub offers excellent, simple food and a great pint of Guinness. The highlight is the in-house dog, Roo, who is a favorite among customers.

Was by far the best burger I have had for a long time, I would recommend over and over.

The Red Lion is a pub that has seen changes with new ownership and has been making efforts to revamp the old place. The atmosphere is welcoming and friendly, with tasty food and drinks served in a timely manner. The menu offers options for vegetarians and vegans that are flavorful and well thought out. The staff is friendly and accommodating, making everyone feel like part of the family. The pub also offers various amenities and clean facilities, catering to both locals and visitors. Overall, The Red Lion is a fantastic local pub worth visiting.

Classic standard English boozer; no pretentions, loud, a bit brash and full of locals having a night out. Slightly better than average pub menu, and the
