Was at a Christening here very recently, haven't been in until now. Lovely decor, reasonably priced and warm feel to it! Would drink here again for sure, Lovely staff too! It looks great all done up as NE28 bar.

Ordered a take out Sunday lunch today and it did not disappoint! Beef was absolutley gorgeous and rest of the dinner was just as nice. Would definitley recommend for a traditional home made dinner.

My daughter had her wedding here all day/night. Very disappointed with the venue/owner. The buffet provided was fit for a childs party. Paid extra for a seafood platter, my god £50 and was seriously disgusted in the poor selection on the platter for the price. Seen better platters on marketplace for half the price. My daughter was allowed in the night before to set up. They virtually had everything set up then to be told at 7.50pm (we had till 8pm to finish) that we weren't allowed to have anything fixed to the wall.....we had a backdrop and balloon arch already set up. The owner was nowhere to be seen. I told them not a chance would it be coming down and if he didn't want anything on the walls then those instructions should have been given on booking etc and during communications beforehand. I didn't take it down and told the bar person that if it was removed there would be serious bother. It was still up thankfully! They also told her it would be £30 for a bottle of Prosecco for the wedding toasts. THIRTY POUND!!! They sell it in Asda for £6.95 a bottle. She's didn't go ahead with it but was told she wasn't allowed to bring her own as they would suffer financial loss. On the wedding her father happened to be standing at the bar and someone was buying a bottle for their table, they were charged £17.95 for the bottle. He did purchase 10 for his daughter but I was outraged that he wanted to charge her £30 per bottle!!! Disgusting!!! The room itself smelt damp and wasn't that clean. The tables were sticky, the bar was dirty and understocked for the amount of people there (approx 120) the drink prices were also marked up for the event. The attitude of the bar staff was questionable, considering how much this venue cost overall including the extra cost for the bottles of Prosecco we should have been given a more professional service and attitude. My daughter didn't get all of her decorations etc back either and when they questioned it she was told that was all they had and the room was cleared for another venue on the Sunday morning. I would never recommend this venue. Utter disgrace. I have been a landlord of a local pub myself so I know what should be expected of a venue and what should be delivered. Sadly this was not the case here. Should be ashamed of themselves.

Never again. A party of 9 of us had a table booked tonight, when we got there nbsat down there was children running all over the place, lying on the chairs and so loud. The table was very sticky and the cutlery was filthy. We waited n waited to b served with drinks and our meal orders and nobody came. It was a total disgrace and certainly will never go back.

Party here with family for a christening. Absolute shambles, party still was good but the attitude of the owner/manager was horrendous. The person who the organiser booked the party with laid down rules which were followed to the letter then to arrive the day before to have the manager/owner go down her throat about how she had done this and that, which she had been told she could do, as if it was all her fault. Then to add insult to injury, the day of the event, the place was supposed to be opened up early to add finishing touches, and was still locked untill 10:45 with the christening starting at 11. Fortunately the organiser still managed to pull off a great day but this venue added allot of undue stress and worry, right at the last moment. We're also told that we would have the room untill 9-10 to be then told at 10 to 7 we had to be out by 7. All this and when everyone arrived for the party, the bar was very poorly stocked, and only one member of staff on the bar. Would strongly suggest finding somewhere better if you are planing a function or party.

Stay away, if you book function room don't expect your deposit back. I wish I would have taken the advice of all the bad reviews!

The lunchtime special is definitely worth the money. Pizzas have a lovely thin base with plenty of filling. Just a shame this restaurant is not busier as it's a place that once experienced you will definitely return to. Our waitress Selina was very pleasant and attentive but not in your face. Was there when we needed her but gave us plenty of time to make our choices. Would definitely recommend.

When to the Red Lion for dinner,staff very pleasant,bar area nice and spacious and generally clean ,that’s where it ends ,myself and wife sat at table no 42 facing the corner opposite,where four dogs were congratulating with there owners ,lovely dogs ,so lovely they had a dogs water bowl on there table ,the dogs sat on the seats next to there owners ,and even due to the fact that the owners put dog blankets on the seats ,the dogs just walked over the seats ,I do believe that the dogs found the tables ok for there use ,but call my old fashioned it was not acceptable to me and my wife ,please note iam not saying anything detrimental about the dogs they felt at home ,you may ask the question why I ordered the meals in this situation,one reason is that my wife does not like confrontation,so I kept my mouth shut ,the meal my wife wanted was not available so she chose another ,I chose Irish burgers Wow wow What a pile of rubbish ,mind you the dogs kept looking over at them ,but iam not cruel I love dogs ,would not like the vet bills if they ate them The icing on the cake was when my wife went for the salt she picked it up and low and behold they had not put the bottom on ,this in due course allowed the salt to pour out from the bottom ,method in there mad ness more salt kills the taste no complaints This is fact oh and do not drink the beer unless you like warm flat ale

Visit this pub frequently with family and live in forest hall. It’s a lovely pub and we always call in for a drink on a nice day when walking the dogs. They’re friendly and welcoming to all of us, and we always get what we want. It’s a pub, so you get what you bargain for - we normally get two pints of Stella, and large glass of wine and a fruity cider of some sort. We usually get like snacky food to share, nothing too high end. Anybody giving this pub a low rating, for honestly can’t understand why (unless they really dislike dogs). There isn’t a waiter, it’s all bar service, but it’s honestly lovely and always and the staff are always more than happy to help

Tried Sunday lunch. Paid nearly 40 pound for 2 cold lamb dinners. Little turnip. 1 piece of carrot. Couple bits of cabbage and 2 potatoes. When we told the waitress it was cold she took them away and returned a couple of minutes later with same plates straight out of the microwave . 40 quid for 2 microwave dinners. Disgusting. With drinks I asked for a glass of rioja. Wast told none. Asked for malbec . Same answer. Asked for a temprinillo. The guy spent 3 or 4 minutes looking in the white wine fridge before I told him it was red. A pino grigio for the wife. Again. None. Not good at all. Staff don't know basic wines and really poor overpriced microwave food.
