I popped in today for a beer after having my Covid booster - well I needed to wash down some tablets! There were two ladies working the bar. One, an older lady, and the other with multi-coloured hair. They were just lovely and welcoming. I ordered a prawn cocktail which was presented beautifully and sat at the back and just relaxed for an hour. I had been here before, with my mum, and live locally. I’d really recommend the Red Lion. When you think the date of 1364 on the front of the building is more or less half-way between the Black Death and the Peasants’ Revolt it deserves to be recognised more - but let’s keep it a local secret for now.

Had lunch here today with friends. Just happened to come across it on the Internet while looking for someone in the area . Beautiful building and interesting decor. We all had a sandwich, 3 of us prawns, and one sausage. They were all lovely loads of filling hot chips and salad, all for a very reasonable price. The waitress was charming, and the owner was just lovely. We will definitely visit again.

Were staying just over the green in Hernhill so we ate here twice: once a deux in the lovely garden and once in a group of 5 where we were seated upstairs. Very busy so you need to book on a Sunday. Sunday roasts were very good though I thought they had skimped on the veg and especially on the gravy. We had to order more and it came at an extra cost of £1.50 for a tiny little doll’s house saucepan.Otherwise no complaints.

Not half as good as it was … an all meat Sunday roast now consists of 2 meats instead of 3 ,, the portion size and price are the same … extra gravy as there is never enough ( approx 30 mls)£1.50 .. such a shame as it was the best roast for miles around .. sadly not anymore .. I did speak to the manager who basically made excuses … he said the gravy cost 60p a portion to make … ???? That is quite some profit ..

Having messed up my booking (me not the Red Lion) we were efficiently sorted by the first of a fabulous team of staff. Everything about our evening was superb. The location of this stunning pub just a very pleasant 20 minute drive from Canterbury was idyllic and we look forward to returning. All 3 of our meals were cooked to perfection and we couldn't muster up one gripe between us. The pub management should be proud of their front of house team, they all got it just right. Can't recommend enough.

We've been to here 2 times before and food was nice so we went back a third time to take our friends for lunch and was very disappointed. Our friends had Sunday roast, we had burger and chips. Our chips were cold one both plates so we sent them back, only to be returned still cold. The manager got involved (who by the way hasn't smiled or been welcoming the 3 times we've been there) and replaced our lunch with "hot" food but by the time that arrived our friends had finished theirs so had to sit and watch us eat ours. The bill wasn't amended accordingly for the inconvenience which we found very disappointing.

The quality of the food was fantastic…best homemade Nut Roast we have had for a long time, in fact all the vegetables & roast potatoes were cooked to perfection & we are fussy! We had a fantastic time at this lovely pub, when we turned up for Sunday Roast Lunch with our 2 dogs, on Easter weekend. We were all made really welcome inside by the friendly staff & the atmosphere in this beautiful old pub was super. Would definitely go again if we find ourselves in the area.

Came for lunch purely on reading reviews - ordered the home-cooked fishfinger sandwich with salad and chips. Customer service was faultless and the old world charm of the pub was fantastic. Cheap thin bread sandwich with a layer of shredded iceberg lettuce underneath the fishfingers making the bread soggy, fish fingers tasteless no seasoning, side salad on plate should be renamed as shredded iceberg lettuce garnish with pickled red onion slices and chips clearly supermarket - all for 12.95 ???? We will not be back.

I've been to the Red Lion a couple of times over the last few years as its always been a beautiful pub to spend time in. Theres no better building or location for a pub, it's almost perfect. The food has got so much better since the last time I came here about a year ago, which was a little underwhelming to say the least. I had the Haddock pate to start which was delicious, followed by the Duck breast which was even better and cooked perfectly. its was value for money and there's a good selection of beers to choose from, the staff were very attentive and friendly. After speaking to the server I understand theres a new owner and chefs in the kitchen which must be why this place is so much better, I won't be leaving it as long before my next visit.

DISAPPOINTED. Came highly recommended but fell flat. Had homemade focaccia bread with chilli and garlic butter, not a hint of chilli but overwhelmed with garlic. Crispy belly pork bites, absolutely delicious. Cod and chips main course. Both pieces of fish tasted dry, chips were frozen, tarter sauce had a taste of curry. Service was pretty good. Atmosphere was at a premium but to be fair we were the first customers of the evening. All together a little disappointing.

Yesterday’s lunch was delicious - we both had starters & mains: a classic prawn cocktail, and a yummy Serrano ham & melon salad followed by lamb koftas, and salmon with a basil & limoncello sauce. The service was friendly and the building is just beautifully (13th century). Highly recommended.

Been three times before but had always booked. Popped in without a booking on the off chance we could have lunch for 3. The waitress straight away welcomed us and gave us a choice of lovely tables, menus brought over and water for our pup. Comfortable chairs and lots of space. Good busy feel to the pub. Our meals were delicious, hot and perfectly cooked. The haddock with Thai noodles was so tasty and really different. Friendly, chatty and kind service throughout the meal… we can’t say enough good things about the staff here. We were even offered a blanket for the pup to lay on. Pub is situated on a pretty village green and the beer garden is huge with children’s play are too. Don’t miss out. We will be back (again).

We discovered the pub from a recommendation while staying in Faversham and must say, could not be a better recommendation. The pub looks like a time portal to a few centuries ago in a great location with an amazing preserved building (of course adapted with modern technology). Great look isn't it all as the team there were great, welcomed us as we entered, knowledgeable service and fantastic food. Walking or riding, this pub is a must visit.

Charming building from the exterior overlooking the village green and parish church, ‘typically English’ setting one could say. As the headline says, the stand out was the attentive service from 3 charming young women - hats off to you for your care (and no doubt good training). Excellent range of drinks, food good/above average, portions generous- almost over generous!
