In the words of Samuel Jackson ‘that is a tasty burger’. Loaded fries also a must. Food is great pub food and reasonably priced, would totally recommend. Very friendly village pub too.

Whenever we go to the Red Lion, we are always greeted with a lovely warm welcome, Jo always remembers what our drink is. Food is amazing, whether eating in or takeaway. Definitely recommend the cherry and coconut ice cream sundae. Great to sneak off to for lunch or afternoon gin. Thanks Jo.

Good, classic pub grub. Roasts are great size with fresh veg, and pink beef (even late in the day!) not to mention gravy in a jug rather than swimming on the plate 😄😄😄 The burgers are tasty and moist with good cheese- fries really crunchy.

Fantastic local pub, Jo and her team are always friendly and welcoming. Great selection of beers and spirits and sports on for all sports fans. There is a great selection of delicious homely, freshly cooked pub food and snacks and at weekends Jo does a fantastic Sunday lunch, booking ahead is advised

It's so good having a local with food, especially when they never bat an eye at my toddler's shenanigans! We've never had a problem with meals. Sometimes they take s little bit when we get there for open or it's particularly busy, it's not set up for huge numbers so we don't mind. We do have our go to menu items though. It's always clean and good service. I look forward to visiting more often when the small monster is older

Popped in as we happened to be local and needed a quick lunch. Brilliantly welcoming landlady, decent sausage and mash with mustard gravy and a well kept pint of Timothy Taylor's Landlord for about £15. Wish it was in our village! Chatted to the landlady, whose grandparents had the pub in the late seventies/early eighties, so she has a real passion for the place as well as it being her business. Impressive menu for a small village pub, will definitely come back.

We had a lovely lunch at the Red Lion today with friends. There was a nice Vegetarian Wellington on the menu usually for Sunday roasts but the lady was so obliging and offered that for today (Tuesday), I’m so glad she did it was extremely good. Would not hesitate to recommend this, and hopefully we’ll go back soon.

Also making a big effort to involve as many customers as possible with various teams such as pool and darts. Board games and garden games are available. There is also a weekly fresh meat raffle on Sundays and a bingo evening on the last Tuesday of the month with great cash prizes. I would definitely recommend that you support this lovely pub.

The pub signage claims they serve tea and coffee. They don't. They can't get the coffee machine to work. There are intrusive roadworks currently underway that make the forecourt (pictured) a dangerous place to pull up. When my ninety-five year old father and I pulled up and I went in to order we were told the coffee machine wasn't working. So, the barmaid took our order for a white wine instead. When I asked what beers they had she demanded we put on masks. Both of us are exempt. We were going to sit outside anyway. Evidently, this pub forces customers to wear masks even when they're outside! We were so appalled by her rude, dictatorial attitude that we made straight for the car to leave. Given that my dad is 95, we had to make our way back across the forecourt to the car quite carefully. We couldn't believe it when - not content with the upset she had already caused by refusing to serve us - the barmaid then came out on to the forecourt as we were driving away to wave us goodbye! It beggars belief that this pub pretends to be engaged in the hospitality industry. We were utterly disgusted and would advise everyone to drive straight past and give this outlet a wide berth.

From the moment we arrived, the staff were so accommodating, friendly and helpful. Everything we ordered was tasty and of a very high standard. I have to give an extra thumbs up for the homemade steak and ale pie I had. Not only did it taste great but I was genuinely shocked by the amount of meat and the quality of the meat inside the pie. I cannot recommend this pub more highly. Please make the effort to try this pub. I don't think you will be disappointed.

The Red Lion is pleasant and friendly, though without any particular character or charm to make it a place I would go out of my way to frequent. Its strongest point is the range of beers, with 3 real ales on tap. When I was in, there was the ordinary but drinkable Greene King IPA, Timothy Taylor's Landlord (which is very popular with ale drinkers) and my personal favourite - Adnams Broadside. So worth a stop if you happen to be in Bozeat.

It was the first time my wife and I had visited and we were delighted to find a really nice, clean traditional pub with a very pleasant ambience. Service was warm and friendly and the food was really good. Three of us had fish and chips followed by a wonderful apple and blackberry crumble with custard. One person had a very impressive looking and tasty macaroni cheese. It was all excellent quality and amazing value at just £6 per head (plus drinks). We'll be back.

The staff were friendly and helpful. The accommodation had been recently modernised. The breakfast was adequate, though its presentation lacked care and attention to detail. Sadly the hotel is in need of basic maintenance: our toilet and shower did not work properly so we had to be given access to another room. Two of our room windows were screwed shut, and the hardware on the third window, which did open, was hanging off. There was mould on the shower tile grouting. The entrance to our room, directly from the courtyard car park, needed to be swept and weeded.

The ease of ordering was great, there was a lot of variety to and the cost wasn't expensive at all. Great value for money. The only issue we came across was, after being placed in the function room (party of 20 plus 5 children) There was a lack of seating available which caused somewhat of a stir to begin with.
