Red Lion in East Cambridgeshire

We stopped at this pub while doing a circular walk around Stretham. The greeting from the lady behind the bar was perfect. Bring a Sunday it was only a choice of a roast or the basket meals. We sat in the garden at the back and had scampi and chips. The food was excellent and very hot. The service was perfect and attentive.

We came here for Sunday lunch. Bad decision. There was only 1 other table in use when we arrived (1pm), which didn't encourage us, but we decided to give them a try. The roast beef was so tough it would have been better suited as shoe leather, the potatoes looked nice but had a weird taste, only 1 tiny yorkshire (probably from a pack of 12 from tesco) and brown water pretending to be gravy. It was the type of meal where you leave thinking where to go to find real food as you are still hungry. We'll never set foot in there again, unless they change management and Definitely replace the "cook".

Decent food and drinks, fair prices, spotless toilets, average surroundings, good service, large off-road car park. We would go here again.

Several times I’ve been to this village pub between 845 and 9:20 pm only to find that the bar is closed not consistent with the closing times of 10 pm or 11 pm I would suggest that they change the closing time still being close whenever we feel like it which I feel is really not good enough

Landlord rude food basic, ask where do I sit as 1st visit he said a chair…1st and last time I visit..

I have just returned from a family lunch get together & i don't even know where to start with my review. Upon arrival we were greeted with "you are early" (table booked for 12.30 and arrival at 12.15) Two tables in the restaurant had a plastic xmas table cloth - when we queried why ours wasn't, the reply was these tables had booked the Christmas menu. When pre-ordering some of the party had requested starters, but the lady said no need to pre order those, just the mains. No starters were offered on the day. The food came out in dribs and drabs and it was almost too much bother to bring sauces to the table. When some had nearly eaten their pie and chips, gravy was brought to the table. It took ages to have the table cleared. No desserts were volunteered we had to ask for the menu. No coffees were offered. In conclusion this is the worst food we have EVER been served collectively and the attitude of the lady serving was very rude. We would definitely not return or recommend this place to eat.

Stayed in a twin room at this pub last night and barely slept at all. One of the beds my husband slept in was Ok but the other bed was appalling - the mattress was about 12 inches shorter than the wooden bed base so my feet hung off the mattress. It was so lumpy and uncomfortable I had to sleep on top of the duvet and use a towel to give me some cover. Each time I turned over the loud squeaking from the mattress woke my husband up. After finally dropping off around 3am (based on the church clock) we were both awakened by the loud slamming of doors and conversations at 07.20 as other guests were allocated breakfast between 07.00 and 08.00 only. I suggest the owner of the establishment spends a night as we did in this room on the very same mattress to understand the complete lack of restfulness we paid for. Oh and the TV doesn’t work. Obviously we would never go back and feel very let down that a place that offers visitors accommodation considers this to be acceptable

We visited for lunch and noticed the bar staff seemed stressed, which could be interpreted as rudeness. My friend order scampi and chips in a basket, specifying she wanted chips rather than fries. I ordered a bacon, brie and cranberry toastie. When our food arrived, my friend was served fries, she mentioned this to the server, who said they had no chips. My toastie was very thin and although I could taste bacon, it was doubtful if the cheese was brie. I saw a smear of cranberry. While we were eating, we noticed that another customer had been served chips with her meal! When I paid, the staff apologised for not having chips, so I pointed out to her that another customer indeed had chips. The response was unsatisfactory, I will not return.

Room 6 Large cobwebs in two corners of the room. A black mark the size of a 50 pence on the white duvet cover and food crumbs in the crevices of the remote control causing it to be difficult to use at times. The towel rail in the bathroom was missing as was the toilet roll holder. So there was nowhere to hang anything in the bathroom, no door hooks either. Only one side of the bed had a lamp which made it very difficult to get up in the middle of the night or even read. The table and one chair were so very shabby even a charity shop I am sure would not accept them. During the evening meal which was ok another couple were asking for the radiators to be put on in their room as it was very cold. We also asked at the same time and was told that the owner had said earlier it was not needed. Staff went to speak with the owner again. we were then told it had been turned on but the radiators had not been bled so unlikely to come on. The heating was not turned on because the pipe coming up through the floor to the radiator thermostat remained cold. The breakfast was poor, no jam or marmalade available, bacon was cold and the dining room felt very cold as the heating was still not on. I did leave them a polite note in the room before leaving in the hope she would give us a call to apologise but no such luck

Checked in at the bar, mid afternoon. Greeted by friendly bar staff. The owner showed us upstairs to our room which was spacious and very uncluttered. An evening spent in the pub resulted in my thinking I had drunk too much, but the morning showed the floor to be on an extreme slope (see photos). The tea cups could do with being mugs as they are quite small. The bed was comfy and our room at the front wasn't noisy. The bells from the church are an excellent addition and I think they stop between 10pm and 6am, or maybe I was just very tired. The shower screen wasn't very effective due to handles on the bath which prevented it from sealing. As a result, water ran down the outside and down the slope into the bedroom area. The pub is locked at night, with no on site staff. We had to leave the key in the door to show we had left and depart via the fire escape.

The church bells go off all night, even on the quarter hours, and woke myself and my colleague in the next room continuosly. Not the hotel's fault but nonetheless resulted in minimal sleep and I won't be back regrettably.

We went to the pub for a quick bite of curry lunch. Its a lovely cosy atmosphere for a bite to eat and a drink.

Love this pub and will be returning... Family feel to the pub. and the landlady is such a welcoming person. The food is lovely, fresh and many options to choose from whether you are a veggie or a meat eater! The food was delicious, lots to choose from too !! Thanks chef !! The service is 5 star. Lovely smoking area and you get brilliant service from all the staff!!! Thanks for a lovely Sunday afternoon

We enjoyed our lunch for 3 in the conservatory, home-cooked pies and vegetarian options, with a charming waiter.

The Red Lion offered a warm welcome from staff and customers alike. The building is a little tired on the inside and could use some love in the form of updates / lick of paint. The initial room offered was cold and uninviting, no heating working and no other heater fan, plus incredibly noisy as over the kitchen extractor system, the bathroom also looked cold and tired and did not compel you to use it. However the friendly and helpful staff, kindly relocated me to another room, which by contrast was a world apart from the original room. Clean, updated bathroom and warm however the TV was a little dodgy, remote didn't work very well. Food in the evening was ok, but nothing special, choice is limited in the local area. Breakfast offered a simple buffet and cooked offering used mass produced ingredients, but tasty and well presented. Would stay again if in the area.

Stayed here previously a few years ago.Very similar decor.Room ok twin room in annex.couldnt get the tv to work,as on a weekend and early morning did not feel appropriate to find staff to sort.Also couldn't find a switch for the wall lights Otherwise no complaints about the room.Breakfast fine waitress kept topping items up as diminished.As previously noted by reviewers not enough saucers We also had to ask for butter for the toast.Probably top end price wise but only pub in the village.Staff very friendly and helpful.

My room was noisy as it was over the extractor fan for the kitchen. I complained because of the terrible noise and vibration, but told that was all there was. The fan was only off between 9pm and 6.22am. I felt they had my money so didn’t care. Terrible service.

Back again to this lovely pub. Nice people, good food, comfy rooms and lovely outside area with lots of flowers in bloom. All at a reasonable price.

I met up with 3 friends for a 1 night stay prior to attending a jewellery making course in Haddenham - this hotel has new and old sections and at first glance I was not 100% but now I am! The staff were welcoming, very helpful and the rooms were clean, tidy and with free wi-fi as a bonus. We booked a meal in the restaurant and although the menu was not extensive, the food was brilliant. It was very tasty and well presented to the point that the 3 of us could not finish all of our chips! Breakfast the next morning was in the same room and a full English was available. Sadly I omitted to take photos but trust me it's a gem of a find!

Shabby accommodation in need of serious facelift. Over priced. Not recommended. Breakfast ok but nothing special. Beautiful location.

Popped in as staying nearby. Staff behind bar pleasant. Ordered salmon with vegetables - it came with just a few potatoes and some cubed carrots. I was expecting more. The sauce was very meagre and served on fish skin side up. Not a nice plate of food. My husband ordered chicken curry which was watery. The side of handcut chips were not cooked through and were insipid. What a disappointment . Won’t recommend at our accommodation which is a shame as it’s the local pub.

Seven of us stayed over two nights good old traditional English pub.Very friendly warm welcome, staff were outstanding, good range of beers food very good recommend steak pie and curry, good breakfast, reasonable prices.The room I had was ok, comfortable bed, the bathroom could do with updating.

Checkin was fast and efficient. The room was clean and comfy, but basic and in need of refurbishment. However, it was quiet and comfortable so I’d be happy to stay again. Breakfast was okay and dinner good. I was disappointed with the latte being from a packet rather than a coffee machine, but otherwise no complaints. Good homely food and generous portions. The staff were friendly and efficient. Ella, our server at dinner, was very warm, friendly and patient, so deserves particular mention.

I was pleasantly surprised at the menu, impressed with the quality and quantity overall a good meal!!!

Went for an evening meal on a Thursday night, four adults plus our dog. Nice table, reserved in the bar area with plenty of room for all of us. Not an extensive menu but enough to cater for most tastes. Food was excellent. Generous portions. So much so that one of the party needed to take some away for another time. All nicely packaged up without a fuss. The chef even came out and gave the dog a couple of biscuits which went down very well. Definitely worth a visit if you are in the area.

Popped here on the way to wicken fen, would definitely recommend. The waiter was very friendly and helpful. The food was very well cooked and friendly. Couldn’t fault anything!

Have eaten at this pub several times the food is really good. We always check the specials board before the menu. This time we had pork and duck dishes from the specials board both meals were outstanding again.

Reviewed this pub last year and gave it 5* because it deserved them.

On an afternoon drive spotted the Red Lion we decided to stop for a coffee.. this did not present a problem for the staff....I got a decaffeinated one which was lovely as so many pubs do not stock it.

We were staying at the Red Lion (review on https://www.tripadvisor.co.uk/Hotel_Review-g1493779-d564206-Reviews-Red_Lion-Stretham_Cambridgeshire_England.html) and had an evening meal and breakfast. There is a menu and specials board. The food is good for a local pub and the staff care about what they cook. We asked the waitress to check the beef and ale pie didn’t have bacon and not only did she check and come back to confirm but the chef also came out and told us what the ingredients were and that it was homemade.

Abbiamo prenotato una sera per tre persone, ci hanno fatti accomodare al tavolo, nella parte del ristorante. L’atmosfera molto accogliente, luci soffuse, candele, i tavoli alla giusta distanza tra di loro. Io ho scelto un burger vegetariano, con funghi e formaggio halloumi (tipico del Cipro) e ho considerato la proposta vegetariana un po’ scarsa nell’intero menu. Tuttavia le altre portate, salmone con verdure e la carne sono piaciute molto ai miei commensali.

This was our first time at the Red Lion, we had to go in the bar as we were on holiday (staying in Wicken)and had a dog with us which we are very grateful for as there are not many about in this area, three of us had jacket potato and one had sausage and chips in a basket which might have been the best option, my potato was ok I had cheese and beans, I was expecting a nice soft juicy potato, it was passable but was not the nice juicy lunch as I expected- it needed more beans and cheese, the price was good but I think I would rather pay just a little more and get what I was looking forward to

Went to the Red Lion this weekend for a large family do - the restaurant catered for us very well, putting us in the conservatory room (and let us take balloons & decorations before hand etc).

Popped in for a quick pint and food ordered steak and ale pie came very quickly and a large portion for the money ,turned out to be one of the best steak and ale pies I’ve ever had would very strongly recommend

The Red Loin is local to us and in the past few months we have gone back and every time it had gone up and up with food quality and service. Definitely worth a visit, especially great Sunday lunch. We were a big group and there was nothing to fault. Thank you all for a lovely lunch and afternoon Debbie & Tony x

Can’t speak to highly for this pub.Great atmosphere,friendly staff. Food was exceptional and good service. Definite re visit on the cards.

We called in for lunch as I had won a voucher for the pub. We had a really nice lunch. I had the mushroom and haloumi in a brioche bun and my partner had fish and chips. Good quality, good value and friendly staff.

We visited in early August. Having had some nice meals here in the past our hopes were high. But we were soon disappointed with a poor food selection, different for what we had seen on previous visits. There was nothing special about the 'daily specials' on the blackboard. The waitress while clearly new to the job was very polite and helpful, but the service from the kitchen was slow given there were only three tables occupied. The food was uninspiring and bland. A world away from what we'd had previously.

The food was nicely presented and was delicious. The service was good. After our lunch we sat outside drinking coffee surrounded by beautiful hanging baskets!

On arrival the welcome was great. The ale was nice albeit choice limited. Very clearly a locals pub and friendly too. The staff were clearly trying but sometimes let down by attention to detail and some basic training required. Food was ok and very acceptable but limited choice in certain areas like desserts for example and no apparent wine list. No coffee offered after dinner. Accommodation for me personally was disappointing. (Room 8 / single room) The room was of adequate size but television was older than I and the remote didn't work, the bathroom stank of heating oil emanating from below I believe and the mattress was concaved and the springs pushing through. Main issue was size of shower cubical, very small and water pressure was low so a gentle jog around to get wet was required. I did also have the kitchen extractor fire up around dawn which was quite loud. The room rate in fairness was reflective of what I got but I would say some investment in the business would bring the experience in line with the expectation. Excellent website which is why I booked the venue...

We visited the pub for an over night stay and ate in the restaurant. The bar itself was friendly with a bar area and a lounge but it was difficult to differentiate which was which furniture wise! There is a very pleasant outdoor seated area which has a roof over part of the seating area. Our room was a double which was adequate but the bed was a bit hard and squeaked. The shower room was In need of a re grout and general makeover. There was ample tea and coffee making g facilities with biscuits provided. Dinner was very average and the service slow as there was only one waitress who was very good but still slow. Mixed grill was quite bizarre instead of mixed meats you got mixed steak cuts two them rump and serloin. Very peculiar!!

Buena cerveza, buena comida, servicio amable, no me puedo quejar. La carta era corta pero bien elaborada, cumplió lo esperado

i had something to eat with friends the food was very very poor I complained And the staff called the police I have lived in this village for over 20 years and to be treated like this please avoid staff very abusef

Possibly the worst food I have ever had. Staff unprofessional and arrogant. Waited nearly two hours for

So another meeting of the Secret Supper Club and we were duly impressed with the food and the service.

Difficult to find something such a small selection on the menu.We have had in the past very good meals.good helpings and a good choice. Decided on Chicken strips in batter with a salad garnish ! !

Those who have read my reviews know that although I say it as it is, I try to be positive and give the benefit of the doubt. Alas this review is only one out of three.

Never going here again, food was very poor quality. The steak (£15) was appalling and was sent back, only to get a lasagne with no pasta in it. Over a £100 for 5 of us, what a joke! Never again!!

I just can't understand how they manage to stay open.

Ok so, first time visiting, was very much looking forward to trying somewhere new for a nice Sunday lunch, so we booked for the Red Lion for my partner and my toddler. Man alive it was hot in there, the heating was on full whack, it was actually quite a mild day, I just opened a window behind me a crack as I didn't want any other guests to feel a breeze if they didn't require.

I stayed at the Red Lion for one night only but wished it had been longer! Staff very friendly and over accomadating! Our bedroom was huge! Very clean and reasonable pricing with breakfast included! Cannot wait to be back! Thanks again guys.

Used to spend a lot of time here but moved away for ten years. On returning called in for old times and were certainly not disappointed. Greeted with a warm welcome shown to a table in the restaurant and served a drink while checking out the menu and specials board. A good varied menu made deciding hard so went for the scotch egg starter followed by Thai chicken curry both courses excellent. Thought it would be rude not to even look at the dessert menu (for future reference) had to have the crime brûlée and it was gorgeous. Cannot wait to go back.

Service and food were far below my expectations. The pub has gone through several management changes of late. We thought we would see if it has improved with the latest change of management. I fully expected it to be better, having met the new management who had a lot to say about how it had improved. Well, it is in fact worse than before. The staff are friendly, but very rough and ready. We asked for bread and oil to start, only to be told that they 'don't do anything posh like that.' The portions are a lot smaller now and the prices have gone up. We queried the bill as we were astonished at the price for 2 x smoked salmon starters and a slice of stale baguette each. I don't know why this lovely village can't be blessed with a decent pub.

Just stayed at this place for 2 nights. Staff was very friendly and nothing was to much trouble. Food was amazing especial the breakfast.

Food very disappointing. Husband had a sub roll that was very dry and lack of filling. I had a jacket potato with prawns and Marie rose sauce. Prawns tiny and sauce tasteless and minimal. Jacket potato came with the tiniest serving of coleslaw ever! Landlord very welcoming but talked rather loudly so could here him constantly throughout meal.

We have visited here three times now .Each time the food and service was Excellent .This is going to be a regular event now throught the year.

We've lived in the village for a number of years now and have always meant to go for a meal. This time we did. Lovely food and drink. Great atmosphere. We had a lovely time and will definitely be going back.

Visited for the first time for about 10 years as I had been living away, I used to live in the village 15 years ago and at that point it was a cracking Pub, I had heard it had gone down hill some what but has very recently been purchased from a company by an experienced couple so we gave it a try. It turned out the couple have only owned it for a couple of weeks and the signs were encouraging, very pleasant waitress and the food was pretty good, no doubt they will improve as time passes as well but what we had was reasonable value for money. The whole place could do with a lick of paint but no doubt that will happen too so fingers crossed we will have another good Pub not too far

Full menu, great service, delicious food. Service was prompt and the food really enjoyable and reasonably priced.

Well cooked and presented, generous portions of good quality and diverse English pub food at reasonable prices.

Lovely atmosphere, food and staff. Our daughter lives in Ely so we go down quite often. Will be staying at The Red Lion again.

Had looked at several places in the local area as I wanted to take my friend out for her birthday and she is vegetarian and ideally wanted something better than a frozen veggie burger!!! Well when I read the red lions menu online they certainly catered for everyone ... My friend didn't need the vegetarian menu as she ate of the specials board which again was very vegetarian friendly and

My daughter and myself popped in to this pub for a quick lunch as we were passing through Stretham.

Friends live in Stretham so post cambridge half marathon meal at the lion. Very good atmosphere and a proper local pub with friendly staff. Served 10+ of adults and kids in warm surroundings and food was hot, filling and good quality. Highlight is the chip shop curry sauce...chunky chipz and big hot puds. Try it..you'll like it!

We stayed here over the weekend and was so impressed with the food that we didn't go out but ate here for dinners.

We stopped here while travelling , the food was very tasty, my daughter had roast beef, I had liver and bacon and my grandson had cheeseburger. My younger grandson used the highchair and the waitress offered to bring bread and butter to keep him going till our meals came.

Visited for lunch.We waited a while for amenu only to discover that most dishes were not available because they are changing their menu!!

On first pulling up to the Red Lion we weren't sure that we had the correct place as it looked a lot different than we expected. Indeed, the entrance and bar/lounge areas do have quite a dated, unloved feel, but luckily the restaurant extension is completely different and very nice.

Very nice lambs liver with good mash, and lovely gravy, apple pie was good too, and huge!! Staff were very friendly and efficient, nice ambiance, would highly recommend, and will definitely go back!!

Having looked at the inflated hotel prices in Cambridge we decided to revisit Ely plus the Red Lion, The room we had in the annexe was clean and comfortable. There was

We always try to meet up with our friends somewhere that is equal distance for us all to travel. This time we chose The Red Lion at Stretham which proved to be an excellent choice. The staff were most obliging and we shared friendly banter with them, all helps to create a relaxing atmosphere. Wonderful choice of food, both on the menu and on the specials board. If you couldn't find something you fancied you must be an extremely difficult person to please. We all thoroughly enjoyed the main dishes we chose. The steak and ale pie I had was packed with tender meat, most delicious! For dessert the strawberry cheesecake was one of the best I've tasted, if not THE best. Would certainly recommend The Red Lion, hope to go back before too long, maybe have a pre-Christmas meal there, the menu looks very good. Thank you for an enjoyable lunch there today.

Went for meal there yesterday evening just on the off chance, they have a great menu with something for all tastes. Our waitress Lisette was very helpful and friendly and compliments to chef Mark on our food. I had fillet of sea bream on a bed of risotto (the flavour being out of this world) followed by spotted dick and custard. My partner had Honey road ham with fresh eggs and chips followed by steamed syrup pudding with ice cream, all was excellent, cant wait to go again. As an added bonus as it was a Friday evening they had a group playing in the bar which you could hear from the restaurant, and they played at just the right volume so your could still hear each other speak.

The menu speaks volumes - far too many choices, better to have a few signature dishes than 4 pages of options plus a specials board. The soup of the day was the same as the special board, so was the pie of the day (steak and ale as per menu) so no surprises there. Still, we tried the Rare Cambridgeshire Beef with Yorkshire pudding. 'I'm sorry, we've run out of yorkshire puddings' - 'what? You're joking!' 'No sorry, we have none left.' Do you want me to make some? It will take me 5 minutes, with some plain flour and eggs and milk? Sorry madam, we can't do that. To a yorkshire woman this is unheard of! The meal arrived, and was pretty dire, from the Aunt Bessies roast potatoes to the hard, crispy beef that really needed thinner gravy to make it softer! We challenged the waiter - the rare Cambridgeshire beef was not so rare, rather well done - in fact it was too well done! All in all, very poor (not the staff's fault) but a shame that people will stop expecting cordon bleu cookery when in fact the main claim to fame is ability to ping the microwave! We won't be back

Stopped of for dinner while passing through the village. So glad we did. Food is really goodm nice friendly service too. Great prices. Cant wait to be back in the area and visit again

Basic pub food. The dinning room is additional to the tables in the bar. Server has no knowledge of wine or how to serve it. Maybe they should stick to beer.

all looked good and promising had the mixed grill steak had smell of gone off. told waitress who took it back to chef he said yes it was off. and apologised was taken off bill. could have been handled better. as in dont let the poor waitress deal with it get a manager to deal with it. thats why they get the big money, wont return.charnwood pubs should be ashamed.

Had lunch and this was very reasonable priced and friendly service. Has courtyard and parking and is on the bus route from Cambridge to Ely

I visited with my family for an evening meal (haddock mornay) which was delicious. The staff were very smiley, friendly and welcoming. A lovely clean pub that we can't wait to visit again!

The Red Lion has recently changed hands so we decided to give it a try (after avoiding it on friends' advice) and were pleasantly surprised. Friendly, efficient staff on our mid-week lunchtime visit. We sat in the conservatory area, which - OK - could do with a spruce-up in both decor and chairs (bit hard!) but is in no way unacceptable. And there's some nice planting etc in the area outside the conservatory which - on a sunny day at least - makes it all look rather nice. Plenty of choice on the reasonably-priced menu; we ordered the fish pie, and fish cakes with veg. Took around 45 mins to come but we didn't mind - the results were obviously freshly cooked, hot, very tasty. We also had puddings; I recommend the orange sponge pudding, but you seem to have to ask for whatever you want with it? (I had custard, for which there was no extra charge). We'll definitely be back and, if the food/service remains the same, will be bringing rellies along as well! One SLIGHT negative (for us) is that conversation from the bar area, although separate, is easily heard from the conservatory. From where we sat (far end) it's actually quite an odd effect! Seems like they're in the same room, close to you! OK this time, but I'm not sure about the evening when drinkers tend to forget they're in mixed company. To be fair, there are doors to the bar area, so presumably these can be closed when the bar's a bit 'rowdier'.

The Red Lion is an attractive, ivy-clad building with 2 bar areas and a restaurant area in the conservatory. The pub offers an ever changing selection of well kept real ales, as well as a good range of lagers, ciders, wine and soft drinks. The food is good quality pub food and there are always specials are available on the blackboard in the conservatory. The staff are friendly and the service is attentive. The prices are reasonable too.

Awful - lunch was bad - and I think the landlord was entertaining staff - very loudly - quite uncouth - the barman was pleasant and looked embarrassed - we were the only customers there - not surprised !!!

as a relatively large party, we turned up without a booking, and were accommodated without a problem. The food was excellent, fresh, tasty and large portions. The waitress was extremely friendly and the bar staff made us feel at home. if your idea of a Sunday afternoon involves a family atmosphere, good food and good company... This is your place

Visited this evening with a group approaching thirty for a pre-booked meal. Most of the meals were ready on arrival and the quality in general was below that expected of a reasonable restaurant. Almost everybody attending complained about some aspect of their meal. Most of the group have said they would not use the pub again for a meal. Some of the desserts were over-priced for what they were. All in all, a disappointing meal.

Great pub atmosphere ,good value and a great local pint, good breakfast if you get in early before the locals. Would stay again when visiting family, book direct to get best deal

Visited twice in one week. Monday for a drink, Saturday for lunch. Nice beer, nice food, nice staff, nice atmosphere, nice clean toilet. Very pleasant all round.

Just had a really enjoyable meal at the Red Lion Stretham. Now under new management with a new chef. Excellent menu. Will definitely be visiting there again soon.

The new management have made incredible changes in the short time they have been in situ. We have had food from all three menus and the quality has been excellent. The atmosphere was friendly and the management are prepared to go the extra mile to satisfy customer needs.

Went to the Red Lion in Stretham on Saturday (18th Jan) with friends. We ordered starters and a main course and were very disappointed. The ladies went for Scampi and fries. They arrived looking very tired and with chips like they serve in McDonalds. No vegetables and so we asked for a side salad. The waitress bought two small bowls of salad that were drenched in vinaigrette dressing. We paid £10 and it was worth £5. My mate ordered the Chilli which nearly burned his gums out.

Such a shocking and disappointing meal at The Red Lion Stretham!
