The Red Lion in South Northamptonshire

Had a great evening meal here with friends. It’s a cosy and friendly pub, with very friendly and attentive service. My vegan friends were asked for their opinion on the burgers they’d ordered, and the desserts they had were tailored to their own requirements, so they were very pleased. Reserving a table online was quick and easy, and helped to make the evening a relaxed and fun one. Will definitely visit again.

Really lovely meal, haven’t been here for a long time and it didn’t disappoint. Great menu choice, tasty food would definitely recommend

Really lovely dinner with friends - last minute decision to eat out - great service and value for money - nice ambience - would recommend a visit!

This is our first visit. It’s a lovely traditional old English pub. I imagine the building is historic. It’s nicely appointed inside with refurbed loos. We both had the cod and chips which was excellent - best I can recall ever having in a pub. Nice fish cooked perfectly. Accompanied by a nice pint of local draught bitter. This pub was closed for 18 months but now new management. Jody is great on front of house & there’s a fully fledged Exec Chef in kitchen - which shows. They deserve to do well.

This is our second visit since this delightful pub reopened, and it was every good as the first time. The food is superb and obviously not microwaved. We recommend this pub unreservedly.

Party of 6 had dinner on Saturday evening. Attentive bar staff on arrival. Good choice on menu with a soup and fish of the day Portions were generous and well presented and cooked. Service was good. Restaurant was busy with diners. An enjoyable evening and good value for money.

Popped in today for a light lunch and couldn’t fault the food or the service. Lovely freshly cooked food, good sized portions and the chips were superb! We will definitely be back. The only criticism is that the garden could do with a tidy up.

Super Sunday roast! All you could wish for. And great value at £10 per person. A really great place. Super service in a quality pub restaurant.

First visit, 3 of us decided to pop in for lunch (without booking) as was recommended by someone who lives locally. We weren’t disappointed. Really pleasantly surprised at just how nice the food was and what a little gem of a place this is. Really delicious, fresh food with a good range and choice of different foods too. Service great and pub lovely. We were amazed it wasn’t busier as it was so nice. Also pretty good value. Definitely one to remember. Thank you Red Lion 😊

What an amazing event the red lion put on, food was beautifully presented and all dietary requirements taken care of, the Drag artist was brilliant funny, friendly. The staff were attentive and couldn't of been more helpful. We all had a wonderful experience. Thank you guys👏👍

One of the best brunch’s I have been to the staff were really friendly and could not be any more helpful it was a well thought out drag brunch and everything ran smoothly the food was lovely and catered for everyone

Have been 3 times since it has reopened and had excellent food each time. The tapas is very good and the main courses are even better.

We reserved a table at the last minute and were delighted with the welcome, menu and decor. Having not visited the pub in some years, we will definitely return to sample other items on the menu. Lovely meal, good wine and just what we needed on a dull and rainy summer’s evening. Many thanks.

First time visit since they re-opened Greeted by friendly staff I informed them that I was coeliac , and was told that most of the menu could be adapted and they had a good selection of gluten free. I ordered pork and duck pate on...

Sunday roast was stunning, I had pork and my partner had beef, My port was a lovely tender thick slice (I went for the smaller portion) with Honey roasted carrots and parsnips and a beautiful medley of green veg, leeks, kale and cabbage, all Yorkshire...

Went last night. Had a great evening. The guys serving were very friendly and professional. The food was excellent. Had the two course set menu for £20. It was really good value. We need to support these village pubs. Definitely recommend for a great meal.

Restaurant was very quiet but didn’t expect it to be busy considering it was a Wednesday Evening! Had a drink in the bar and chose our food whilst in the bar. We were shown to our table when our food was ready. Seafood sharing Platter,...

3 of our family went to the Red Lion on a Sunday afternoon. We chose roast pork, a jackfruit vegan burger and a bacon cheeseburger. The roast dinner was excellent, beautifully presented, well cooked and plenty of it. Both the vegan and beef burgers were...

Under new management so thought we would try it. Would say the Sunday lunch was OK but they were finding their feet as seemed to be rushing around/ short staffed, but then it was a soft opening.... Would definitely go back in a while once...

Lovely food. Really delicious fish and chips. Nice beer and friendly staff. Live music playing and great atmosphere inside. Thank you :-)

Had Evening meal here. We arrived just before booking time to have a drink and felt as though we were asking for something unusual. The young man behind the bar wanted us to go straight to the table but we insisted and also asked for...

Been here twice for lunch since reopening, can recommend this pub, food is very good, though on second visit we noticed the sandwiches had disappeared from the menu. (nice for a lighter choice) . Homemade pork scratchings with apple sauce are yummy give them a...

It is great to see this iconic pub open again. We went for lunch and were not disappointed. The food is very good and the service impeccable, This pub deserves to succeed.

Wanted to try this under its new owners as the menu looked very good. The service here was excellent but the food did not live up to our expectations. The soft shell crab had little taste except salt. The belly pork had a strange gooey...
