This place is under new management and it really shows. The staff were professional and friendly looking after our large group including several with mobility issues. They were efficient and helpful. The food was excellent as was the service and it was agreed that the Red Lion was now on our places to lunch list...and well spread the word

Staff very friendly and obliging, but food below par. We ordered roast beef meals and the roast potatoes were like hard little bullets and impossible to eat. Would return for drinks and general ambience of the pub, but won't eat there again.

What lovely staff in this pub. Matt especially went out of his way to help us secure a table on a busy Friday night as most of them reserved. He went over and beyond for myself and sister. Aiden at the bar was also very friendly. Matt usually works elsewhere but drafted in as manager away. Keep up the good work. Very polite person.

I would definitely highly recommend The Red Lion Stubbington. Since Rich and Sonia have taken over the pub, they have both made the Red Lion a warm welcoming dog friendly pub, they serve beautifully cooked food. Well done to both of you and your staff for making this a popular friendly place once more to go with the family and friends.

Granddaughter 1 enjoyed the ultimate burger to the extent that it was the “ best she’d ever tasted.” The combination of flavours was unique and “ breathtaking “ Granddaughter 2 loved her burger but not too enamoured about the chocolate brownie. Hotel was great. Clean, comfortable and friendly. Would happily stay there again.

Great pub, friendly staff and warm, friendly environment. The food has been disappointing on recent visits. Although basically it's ok pub grub, it's nothing particularly special and I don't like the white dishes with the blue rim. They remind me of guide camp! Looks awful.
