Day trip to Swaffham. Not many places open on a Monday but The Red Lion was. They were also serving their full menu. A blessing for hot food on a cold winters day. Very pleased you were able to fill us up.

Stayed overnight, arrived early, room was ready nice decor. staff attentive and friendly but busy. Small restaurant but busy, food looked appetising. Room clean, nicely decorated, soft bed, found the room too warm, I think well insulated, facilities good. Worth a visit. Oh! Nightly price on the nail.

The Sunday Roast, beef and pork was excellent. Top quality succulent meat, delicious veg and cauliflower cheese. Home made yorkshire puddings and very tasty gravy. Home made deserts were also excellent especially the chocolate bourbon cheesecake. 10/10 highly reccomend and will be returning to enjoy again. Very friendly and helpful hostess. Thank you all at the Red Lion for a very enjoyable meal.

The main reason I went there is I wanted a good basic sandwiches and pubs normally are a good place to go. The selection of sandwiches is a bit basic, which could be I,proved. The Ham is a piece of proper ham, and not the other kinds you want. Although they do a lot of meals and from the number of visitors was a good sign. I will bare them in mind for future visits.

We called in here on a Tuesday late afternoon with a view to buying a meal. We found that the kitchen were not yet cooking, so settled down with drinks to wait the 20 minutes until the chef was ready to start work. However, in the interim, we found the barmaid to be so terse and churlish, to the point of hostility, that we decided to leave and eat elsewhere. So, no idea what the food is like at this hostelry . . .

Popped in for a late breakfast. It was a nice day and not busy so we sat outside. We had the big breakfast and it was lovely. Good quality food and plenty of it. It was slow to come but we were not in a hurry so it was not a problem. But at least the food was freshly cooked. Service was polite too. Lovely

While visiting my mum in swaffham we had a lovely meal at the red lion. I'm celiac so no gluten whatsoever. The chef came out and recommended I had a jkt pot with my gammon. And cleaned the kitchen. My partner had the hunters chicken and he said it was the best one he tasted my meal was superb and my mum said her scampi was delicious. Definitely worth visiting when visiting swaffham will definitely come again

A great place to stay when visiting friends in Swaffham. A quirkily decorated room that was more than adequate for our stay. Far enough back from the road to not be disturbed. Delicious breakfast, with one of the tastiest GF sausages I have ever had. Will definitely stay here again when visiting.

Strangest experience from the rudest women barmaid. My first time coming into this pub (and last) to have a quick drink in the sun with my partner and son. But the barmaid refused to serve me saying I’m barred, when I explained this must be wrong I have never been here to drink nor am I barred from anywhere she still refused, asked for my whole name and where I lived right in front of people at the bar (why she felt she had the authority to ask a stranger this I have no clue). When it clicked that I didn’t tick all her boxes she said she will go out back to look for the photograph of ‘me’🤣 when there was no photo she was hostile and said she will serve me but will be keeping a close eye on me… So she either served someone who she thought was barred or treated an innocent person with disrespect from her own lack of organisation (the latter) My parter saw this upset me so later when he walked into the bar he was also treated with the same rudeness - ‘No need to tell me, I know what you two are drinking! 😑’ strange entitled behaviour! When he stated she didn’t have to humiliate me in front of people she said how she apologised (lie) and how we didn’t have to stay! So her take, we can either get treated as if we were guilty of something we didn’t do or we leave, lovely environment!! Get your ‘barred’ pictures up then you may stand a chance in not being an unorganised and rude barmaid. When you have got something completely wrong actually say sorry then you could even treat someone with respect

Sunday lunch with a large group of friends was absolutely fantastic. we had pre-ordered our mains but all came out piping hot. The beef is sourced locally from the butchers and many in the party commented it was the best they had tasted. The chicken was a very generous portion and cooked to perfection. All served with seasonal veg home made yorkies and delicious cauliflower cheese. Cannot recommend this place enough, very friendly, great service and food. We will definitely be back if they will have us!

Visited yesterday for lunch with my family and a couple of friends after my daughter got married in King’s Lynn, the welcome we received was great, lovely flowers and a lovely home made cake was provided as a gift. The owners and the staff were so hospitable, the food was great and gluten free was provided for a couple of us. This helped to make a low key wedding something special, and mitigated the couples disappointment at cancelling their wedding during lockdown. Thanks so much.

18th Feb 2024 We chose The Red Lion as a place to go for Sunday (roast) lunch with my daughter and her partner, and in-laws (6 of us in total) as my daughter had eaten in here on a few occasions several years ago and found the food to be very nice. Upon arrival, four of us opted for the beef, one had pork and my daughter had chicken. When the lunches were brought out the beef appeared very fatty and not a decent joint. Upon further inspection, the plates consisted of meat, a yorkshire pudding, 2 roast potatoes, a roasted carrot, something green (liquidised), something which resembled sausage meat which tasted very rich and unpleasant, cauliflower cheese which not everyone likes, some green leafy veg (minimal) and gravy. To cut a long story short, three of us ate around the fatty beef what we could and my husband barely touched his which is most unusual for him. The pork and chicken were both fine but could have been bolstered up with a decent portion of potatoes/veg. When we were asked was everything alright, a couple of us sad 'no not really' and my daughter shook her head in a disaproving gesture. The waitress didn't say anything, other than it was a different chef on that day, but there was no offer to take the meals back to the kitchen or allow us to choose an alternative meal. My son in law mentioned the beef tasted different, as though it wasn't beef but he wasn't sure what exactly. We all had a dessert as none of us were full up, least of all my husband who had only eaten a few mouthfuls of his main. The desserts were all alright. When the plates were cleared from the table, I asked for the remainder of the beef to be boxed up as my husband and I have a fox that visits the garden, of whom we feed on a regular basis. My son in law paid for the meal and when he went up to the bar to do so he reiterated the disappointment over the mains but nothing was said and he was prompted for payment which he did via his card. There was not even an apology given. When we left The Red Lion, I could smell the beef in the box and it didn't smell pleasant at all, as though it had gone off. As a result, we didn't feed much of it to the fox and threw the rest away. In the early hours of Monday morning, myself, my son in law and his Dad each had stomach pains and had to get to the loo. We were all very ill, felt sick with diahorrea and in all visited the loo around 7 times throughout the following hours. We each felt unwell after Monday and even now not completely 100% well. My son in law and I had to ring in to work sick and we do not get paid sick leave so this has cost us both a day's pay. My husband has been to the loo a couple of times and said it wasn't good, but as he had barely eaten the meat was by no means as bad as the rest of us. My daughter emailed the restaurant's owner on Monday and after a very brief response that the matter would be looked in to (still with no apology) there then followed a more in depth email. In this email there was finally an apology provided and the offer of a refund for the deserts (bearing in mind they are £6.95 each x 5, £6.50 x 1) and the main meals were £17.50 x 4 for the beef, and £16.50 each for the pork and chicken. Not exactly a reasonably priced lunch, and more over a total rip off for the content and poor quality. The refunds for the desserts was a bit of an insult to say the least and a cheap opt-out for the mains. The money was re-imbursed to my son in law's card. Meanwhile, on Monday, I had also complained to the owner myself about the dissatisfaction of the meals. Initially I did receive a response but I did eventually when I got back on to the pub/restaurant. The response came across as sarcastic, stating the owner's daughter did not mention about their being a different chef on on Sunday, that the meat is sourced from a local quality butcher, the Red Lion fed 70 people on Sunday roast dinners and not one other person (except the 4 of us) had been unwell! He explained the desserts had been refunded and that was pretty much it. As such, I have taken the this website to log a review to warn other people not to go there - or do so at your own risk! In this economic climate especially, eating establishments need to be careful if they wish to remain in business as there is plenty of competition elsewhere.

We were part of a coach party going to see the Thursford Spectacular, coming from Southend in Essex it was an early start, so we were booked into the Red Lion for a full English, which was served hot and quickly, which set us up for the final part of our journey to take in the show. We were also booked into the Red Lion for an evening meal after the show, when we arrived all was ready for us, for the staff to start serving our meal once we were seated, the meal was served hot and tasty. Our whole experience within the Red Lion was 110% first class as staff done a wonderful job, having to see a coach full of people to contend with, nothing was to much trouble to ensure we were all satisfied with our eats and drinks. Once again thanking all the staff for making our day to remember.

Was passing through and partner needed to use the toilet upon arrival to the pub. Was looking forward to having a drink or two but was shouted at for using the toilet under the assumption we were not paying customers. Unfriendly and rude staff that need a reality check. Instantly walked out. Do not recommend Upon reading their response you can see what type of people they are. The lady FOLLOWED my partner into the toilets who happens to be heavily pregnant while yelling at her. I’m sure the customers are not fussed to our apparent “rudeness” as you had very few in there. You did not give us a single chance to explain before jumping the gun. Word of advice to locals and people travelling through, check the responses to bad reviews to see how immature, childish and unprofessional these “people” are :)

We were pleasantly surprised at how good value the food was too. Would highly recommend.

We have eaten here a couple of times this week. The food has been great. We also stayed for a night and found the room comfortable and clean. A great pub with good staff in a great village.

It's a shame this lovely little venue is still closed down even now covid regulations have lifted but fortunately they still do food takeaway /delivery. I couldn't find the menu online to see what they offer, but I was able to call and as it was Sunday order the Sunday roast. This is available as a small or large, which is a nice option, as I personally prefer a smaller portion. I did ask if they had a vegan option , which they didn't but as a one off I had the vegetarian nut roast and was able ask for it without the Yorkshire or cauliflower cheese. Even as a small portion , it was really generous and had lots of vegetables, which makes me happy. Would certainly order from here again and even more so I look forward to this venue opening its doors hopefully soon, so I can enter the venue for food and drinks .

Greeted by 3 very happy and friendly ladies. Ordered a Latte and sausage roll which was heated for me and bought to my table. Coffee was lovely and the sausage roll very tasty.Will be back to try one of the cakes which looked yummy.

I went to The Bull today for a Christmas lunch. The pub looked amazing with gorgeous decorations everywhere, Christmas trees and open log fires giving a great ambiance. They opened specifically for us as normally they only do Sunday lunches. The food was delicious, beautifully presented and plentiful. Everyone had a perfect Christmas experience and the service was excellent.

What a pleasant discovery! Popped in for a cappuccino and scone whilst waiting for car service and found really excellent quality. The scone was spot-on perfect and the cappuccino looked and tasted wonderful. Will be back soon with our pooches.
