The Red Lion in West Oxfordshire

Walked in, half 8. Dogs barked as they do, and was said you’ll need to leave if they bark I have kids up stairs asleep. Well don’t own a pub then on a Friday night then. Walked straight back out. Would it recommend the awful experience to anyone who not looking for a 9-5 pub and walks in with the bar staff so rude.

Lovely old country pub. Nice relaxing drink in the pub garden. Staff were very friendly. We didn't eat but menu looked great.

Great garden out the back and friendly staff

We have had the back room for several family get togethers. Jan runs a great pub, home of bike night.

Popped in for a pint and lunch on a Sunday cycle ride but they don't do cooked food, just nuts and crisps etc. Good pint of Doombar Amber, plenty of space in the old cottage bar and a big garden with picnic tables and play equipment for the kids.

Friendly welcome nice drink and food

One star less for no cask ale. Good staff.

Private event. Bbq and drinks in the beautiful family friendly garden.

Nice cool pint Friendly place Didn’t eat at pub hence no score

A proper no frills driking pub with great conversation friendly locals and staff

Popped you a quick drink and ended up staying for a few. We were made to feel really welcome and the locals were super friendly.

Friendly staff and great sausages and chips

Lovely village pub,friendly staff and great beers.

My trip was for the Monday motorbike evening. A free event every Monday as a ride in to look at the various bikes.

Excellent place to spend a pleasant time.

Great food lovely staff good service

Met up with friends for British bike day. Seems like a nice little village pub. good sized garden.

A quaint but busy little pub full of characters.

Nice friendly village Pub, great atmosphere and good Ale.

A great village pub and a home warming atmosphere.

A proper old fashioned village pub, with real locals, and visiting dogs A yuppie free zone Always a warm welcome and a nice garden at the rear

Great pub, looks small on the outside but lots of room inside and a lovely garden with seating, great dart board and friendly staff, had few family parties, everyone enjoyed themselves

Beautiful backyard garden sitting place

Attended A 65th Birthday Party Here Saturday 31st July…. Straight Away I Felt Like I Was At Home, The Owners Are Just As Friendly As The Locals Who Drink Here…!!

possibly the best pub garden I've ever been in. set up for kids to have fun. family run pub for the last 40 years.

Staff were very helpful and friendly

Good food especially Sunday lunch. Friendly staff.

Great meals and really good service and great food

Great place and the landlady is amazing

Jan and the staff ar the red lion are second to none

Great local pub. Beers good . Food served only Friday night. 1,2 or 3 course menu put on by chef.

Nice village pub with a lovely garden and very pleasant clientele we did not eat here, but the range of beer and drinks available are very good. A good place to meet up with families as it has a very good children's area and plenty of seating

Another brilliant night at cassinton bike night

Great place brilliant landlady and great customers. Regular Bike Night Mondays

A superb quaintasentualy English village pub, especially for the conesuers of such gems. There isn't anything better.

Called in for a drink with a few old school mates. Saturday night. Pub empty when we got in. Filled up about an hour later we got told off for talking by some woman because it was a quiz night. Not really a friendly place

Great pub lovely garden great for kids as it has a zip wire, slide and climbing wall.

Nice cosy pub ,big garden , bar games . Has some good bands on

One of the best pubs around West Oxfordshire

The woman behind the bar was rude. No greeting at all and just looked at us like we were scum. I asked if we could have some hot drinks as it was -2 her response was " don't do hot drinks!" She made us feel like we weren't welcome There was a german couple in here at the same time and she kept referring to them as "the foreigners" it was shocking and really backward. I get the impression the positive reviews here are from the locals. But sadly my review is that this place is very unwelcoming and a bit racist and the heavy set woman is ... A bit of a tw at

Very friendly pub lots of pub games darts pool, bar bilyords and ant Sally

Made the mistake of going to this pub at lunch time for a meal with my wife. We were visiting Oxfordshire for her 30th birthday. Walked into a claustrophobic den and was confronted by an old heavy set woman who I figured out after a few moments was the land lady. She didn't greet us, she just stood immediately in front of us staring with the room of patrons and the silence was very unwelcoming. I wasn't sure if she was the land lady so I said 'Hi, how's it going?' I asked if they were doing still doing food but was told bluntly 'We don't do food'. I thought it was a joke at first and laughed uncomfortably. I told her we were visiting the area and found the pub through good reviews on the internet and she repeated 'we don't do food'. At this point the silence and staring was getting seriously uncomfortable. I apologised gave her a wave and walked out. As the land lady in a small crowded room she should have said hello at least, not wait for us to figure out who she was. A sign on the front stating that food is not served would have been good as well. Also, I don't want to say it but from the way she and the other patrons stared I would say they hadn't seen non-white people before. As a Londoner I don't get that kind of look very often but I definitely got it yesterday. If you're white, and you just want a drink you'll probably be treated a bit better than we were!

Very welcoming and friendly place. A proper village pub and nothing like the one in emmerdale 😉. Pleased I found it.

Country pub - visited on Cassington bike night so quite busy.

Great atmosphere, good quick service for very busy period, considerate of children. Great beer garden!

A proper pub, no frills but good beer well priced, a pool table, and lots of snacks. Nice staff to top it off. What more could you ask for?

Really nice garden, which is great for kids. Good selection of drinks and friendly staff, overall lovely place
