Red lion Horndean. What can I say our server was called Matthew he was very good helpful with the grandchildren getting them drawing and crayons getting a highchair he was very smiley and chatting with us all. The roast I would highly recommend very tasty and lots of it and very good value for money.we will definitely be coming back.

Went for Sunday lunch, had to ask more than once how long food would be after waiting more than an hour to be told it hadn’t been started yet. Multiple mistakes with the food and told the chef “didn’t want to make the gravy” for one of them??? The lack of communication on waiting times and the average food meant we won’t be coming back any time soon. We weren’t the only people upset, we saw multiple people having same complaint.

We've been coming here on occasions for over a decade, but this latest visit was a disappointment. It took over 10 mins to get our drinks and another 20 mins to get food. It was mid-week so not overly busy. It would be a nice touch if some complimentary breadsticks be brought out when they know there are long waiting times for mains. And prices are soooo expensive now - we don't go unless we have a voucher. A nice ambience and helpful staff but there are cheaper options to dine out locally and I'm afraid value is the priority for most of us these days...

Drinks at table arrived after 1 and a half hours. Some food arrived after 2 hours wait. Cancelled main course as we didn't know how much longer that would be. Went and got fish and chips from take away next door and ate them in the restaurant. Apparently thus type of service happened another night that week. The experience in the restaurant was very disappointing as we had always had a good experience there. Won't be going back. Wouldn't recommend it.

Decided to go out for an evening meal last minute, chose the Red lion and booked a table for half an hour later so that was handy! On arrival we were met and seated by our server , there were plenty of spare tables so it was nice and quiet ( the world cup footie was on so that might of helped) , after ordering our food it took a while to arrive but we were both very happy with our meals and had an enjoyable evening there, would definitely go again.

Red Lion is always good for food and service but special mention this time for Emma Noel who gave a special warm welcome for some relatives visiting from Australia after a long flight it was impromptu last moment booking but we had a great table and very cheery and helpful attention from Emma.

Very historic old pub. nice atmosphere, decor. Server was in your face. . We chose not to leave a tip as our food was delayed. Not everyone can afford to tip.!! Felt pushed into giving them the change as we paid cash, the server had our change in their pocket and asked if we wanted it!, which made it uncomfortable to say no!! I didn't appreciate this behaviour at all as i said we declined to tip.

We frequently use the Red Lion at Horndean and today was the worst experience. We were kept waiting to book in as the restaurant was very quiet and no staff seemed to be around, even at the bar! Once seated we were only given the main menu and not the Sunday Roast menu so presumed that all the roasts had gone but a family of 4 came in after us and was given tge roast menu to which all 4 of them had roasts. When we received our meals I commented on not receiving roast menu and was told I should have asked. Then we were given the dessert menu and when it came to take our choice was told one of the choices had all gone. Very disappointed and choosing a bacon and cheese burger to have 1 piece of streaky bacon is a bit mean, Even burger king burgers have 2 rashers.

Whilst staying at the adjacent Premier Inn we visited here for dinner. 4 plus 1 child, over 2 hours later we finally paid our bill! The service and attention was not good and steadily got worse as the restaurant filled up with diners. Very fortunately we were not in a rush but had to hurry things along as the child in our group approached her bedtime. So points for proximity and the meal quality, but badly let down by the service level, most likely due to the lack of serving staff.

Visited today for Sunday lunch, as per usual very nice. Staff are always friendly, and helpful. As it’s gets busy ( which it always does ) you have to be a little bit more patient with the staff, we had sam looking after us. And they all work really hard to keep a busy restaurant going, especially on a Sunday lunch time. The roast dinner was very nice, and great value for money. Will definitely be going back soon hopefully.

We booked a table on Thursday afternoon, for Friday evening for 24 people. Amazingly, they were able to fit us in, and all they asked for was everyone's pre order - which makes things easier all round anyway. The food was really really good, and our waiter Matthew, was honestly brilliant. Being that there were starters, mains and puddings for 24 people, he brought them all out one tray after another until everyone had what they ordered - the kitchen staff were amazing for that too. Matthew was on point, friendly and energetic the entire time, and he checked on us multiple times to make sure everything was okay. We had a lovely evening, and we will definitely going back again for the next big meal, as we have no doubts in their food and service. Thank you so much!

All you can eat breakfast was good, I like the fact you order what you want rather than buffet where food sits for ages.

This is an all-time favourite for my mum. So every time I visit my parents, there is always a visit planned to the red lion (table table). The food there is always good, as is the service. It never disappoints! Sam was our server tonight, and she has served us on numerous occasions and always treated my parents and myself as if we were the most important guests in the place. Watching Sam work is a masterclass on how you treat every client as if they are the most important client in the room. At that moment in time I’ve watched her with all of her guests working the tables as she does to ensure that all of them got a VIP treatment. The team at the red lion do all they can to keep everywhere clear at all times, meals are served within reasonable timelines and tables are cleared smoothly and professionally. If you’re looking for an enjoyable evening with some good food and good company, definitely take a look at the red lion. Already looking forward to my next visit in a few months

The good: The staff are truly amazing. For young staff, they were really attentive and happy to help. The setting is also beautiful, lots of parking and you also have the ability to have a private room for functions. The Prawn cocktail was really lovely, decent size and tasty. Please see the ugly for the bread. The bad: Mix up in orders (even though we had to do a preorder). Food also not available despite doing a preorder! The ugly: Children's starters. Carrot and pepper crudités. No peppers, carrots cooked?! Who serves cooked carrot sticks as a crudité?! Bread. Stale. Must have been cut in the morning and left on the side. This was served with the soup and prawn cocktail. Fish and chips. Fish burnt and small size. Definitely not worth £17. "Triple cooked chips". Definitely not. Some were served cold, not what you'd expect if they were straight out the fryer. Steak. Grisly. Small. Underwhelming. Chicken. Served partially raw. This was refunded in full and starter given for free in fairness. Chocolate brownie. Extremely dark chocolate and crumbly. Not the texture you'd expect for a brownie. I would describe the entire meal as barely adequate. They are advertising their Christmas menu currently. If it carries on like that I genuinely think your Christmas would be ruined! Either that or they half the price of everything as you are paying top whack price for mediocre food. We should have known something wasn't quite right when there were only a few tables at the pub, for a Friday night! I hope it picks up and gets better as it would be such a shame to see the place go. As I said before, the location and staff are great but the chef needs letting go!

Booked a table online, taking a chance on a place to eat we had not eaten before. My wife and I were with another couple and had the following from the menu: Starters; 2x Ham Hock & Cheddar Croquette, Mustard Mayo. 1x Cajun Tiger Prawns, Asian Sauce, Mixed Leaves. 1x Nachos – Sour Cream, Guacamole, Salsa. Mains; 2x Slow Cooked Rack of Ribs, House Made Barbeque Sauce, Fries, Coleslaw (1x half & 1x full) 1x Quesadilla, Toasted Tortilla Wrap with Melted Cheddar, Onion and Peppers, with added Cajun Chicken 1x Cooked Venison Haunch Steak, Chive Mash, Seasonal Vegetables, Port Reduction, Berry Jus. The food was outstanding, all of our food pierced at the table hot and freshly cooked, flavour of all the dishes was fantastic. I had the venison dish and it was exquisite. Staff were very friendly and helpful, with table service and a good knowledge of the menu. We would all definitely return to this pub/restaurant. Food and drinks were reasonably priced.

Tried to have lunch here today. It was lunchtime and with the relatively small choice of meals and snacks available, (breakfast stops at 11:30am) it would have been reasonable to assume that demand could be met. Wrong! With only three quarters of tables occupied, my first choice of meal was unavailable due to a lack of potatoes. So, having had to choose another dish, twenty minutes passed before being informed that an ingredient for that was missing. I found this unacceptable and left having been refunded for the inconvenience of having to put up with such shoddy service. I was not the only complainant and something needs doing to improve service in this establishment.

Staff did their best but the wait was long and when it arrived it was cold and very poor. Been sitting around for awhile so was dried up. Staff did offer replacement but was past it by then. We had 4 tapas plates and it was only the kofta that was worth eating. Very disappointed
