Another fantastic meal with the family. Great staff and delicious food. The beef salad is 10/10. Great selection of beers too!

First visit and went for lunch. I had the fish pie with buttered mixed greens. It was absolutely beautiful and a good sized portion too. For dessert, I had bread and butter pudding with custard. Again, delicious. Cannot fault the food, the staff or the service. A lovely place to visit. Thank you for a really first class experience.

First time visiting we didn't book we just popped in hoping they could get us in... so glad we did the food was amazing we all had the roast and it was the nicest Sunday dinner I have ever had eating out 😋 it's not overly expensive either..you pay for what you get. Definitely will be a new favourite of ours happy to drive the 40 minutes from home for the next best thing to a homemade roast

What a lovely meal we just had at The Red Lion, each of the roast meals were plentiful with a good choice of fresh veg. 2 of the diners had the ultimate roast when it first arrived as a sharing dish it did look much but as they started to put it onto their plates they realised there was plenty there, amazing how different size plates can cause an illusion. We found the staff very attentive and service was second to none. Oh and not to forget the starters and desserts some the nicest we have had for a long time. Well done The Red Lion for such a lovely joint Birthday treat.

They get your order wrong, advertise you get all the trimmings on your roast when you don’t, you get some shredded basic red cabbage, even when you tackle them about it they ignore you ! Absolutely disgusting management team

New Years Eve at the Red Lion was just great. Lovely food, great service, organised fireworks and a bit of music and dancing. Lady behind us decided to have a row with Becci which was completely unnecessary and she was exceptionally rude and argumentative. It didn’t spoil a great night for us bringing in 2024! Happy New Year and we are looking forward to our next Sunday roast 😜

Had breakfast here today with my wife. This was our local back in the early 70s and it was our first visit back there together since then. Great changes, and all positive. Breakfast was excellent. I had The ‘Red Lion’ and my wife opted for the small breakfast. Both were delicious, and great value for money. Cappuccino was far better than from the coffee bar chains. Service was good and very friendly. Definitely going back, as we have moved back to the area.

Lovely pub in the Country, we have been many times especially with the previous owner. This in my opinion now falls in to the pub food bracket and not restaurant. Down to pubs closing this is becoming a hub for the locals, which is great, but noisy for those dinning . Some soft furnishings , tables with lit candles and so on may help. The food was nice, again more pub based

I had heard great things about the Red Lion, so I chose it as a place for my partner and I to meet up with a couple of friends over dinner. The front of house staff were very welcoming and polite. Our orders for food and drink were taken promptly. The décor is nice and cosy inside, but the tables are quite small (it was difficult to fit drinks, sides and mains within the small space easily). Also the bench seat I was sat on became quite uncomfortable after sitting on it for an hour or so. The lighting was very dim inside the restaurant, which made the tiny print of the menu difficult to read. But the very attentive front of house guy noticed I was using the torch on my phone to make the print more readable, so he quickly switched on a nearby up-lighter lamp. A nice touch. The menu had changed from what was posted on the website. A couple of the dishes that we had been looking forward to sampling (Scallops starter, Meat Feast Pizza, Hunters Chicken main) were nowhere to be seen on the menu. However, the lovely and accommodating waiter managed to get the chicken dish cooked for my partner, which was very much appreciated. The food was okay. They just need to update the website menu to avoid disappointment. Unfortunately our evening was marred by a couple of excitable noisy children who were sat with their dad on the adjacent table. The father was totally oblivious to the volume of their constant shouting and the effect it was having on other diners; especially as it was interspersed with ear-piercing screams at regular intervals. One of the little darlings enjoyed an impromptu jumpy-up-and-down dance next to our table as he squealed with joy and egged his brother on to stand on a chair. Sadly the front of house staff didn’t seem too concerned that their restaurant had become a children’s adventure playground, so I had to ask the father to keep the children quiet. This gave us a five minute reprieve, until the kids took on a few more E numbers and ramped up the screaming again. I know that customer behaviour is beyond the control of the management, however it would have been better if the father had been asked by a member of staff to address his unruly children, rather than leaving it up to a customer to confront him. It’s such a shame as the Red Lion will be forever etched on my memory as being akin to dining in a crèche.

This was our first visit since the change of ownership and were quite satisfied by the meal and wine. We both had starters - crab salad for the wife and wild mushrooms on toast for me with both bringing positive comments. We then went on with a chicken main meal for my other half and a rib eye steak for me. The food was not bad but we felt there was more emphasis on quantity than quality but we still enjoyed them. What helped immensely was an excellent bottle of a Puglian red which really added to the meal. So over all, we were not disappointed and will definitely revisit.

We had a delicious lunch in the covered outdoor seating of The Red Lion.The quality of food was excellent (chicken katsu burger and pork belly cassoulet), and the prices were very reasonable. Drinks selection was great and we were delighted to find a bit of variety on draught (Beavertown Neck Oil IPA).Stand-out for us was the service we received from staff. Not only were they very disciplined with their sanitisation and COVID-19 practices, they greeted us at the entrance, were warm, friendly and extremely professional. Of the many places we have eaten this summer, The Red Lion offered the best service by some distance. Our server noticed I was cold and offered a blanket. Another server noticed I was heavily pregnant and opened a side door to make my journey to the bathroom shorter - small things make big difference.We absolutely recommend The Red Lion to anyone looking for a comfortable and quality dining experience.

The pork was lovely but unfortunately the lamb and the beef were very poor which resulted in a very disappointing meal. We are not ones to point it out and make any kind of fuss we just simply won't go back , which is a shame. We were surprised at the lack of quality of the two of our three meats. Not in the least bit tender and barly luke warm. We're not ones who expect Gordon Ramsey quality but want to pay harvester prices, but at £20 a head it has to be better than that. Dessert was lovely and presentation was great just that meat was pooooor!!!Service... 8/10...the food regrettably 4/10

the meal was expensive for what it was. the wine list isn't great, they only sell prosecco by the glass.no champagne by the glass.the meal was edible but not very tasty. my starter of mushrooms was mostly bread. the vegetables are extra, there is a poor choice . house veg was peas and very undercooked tender stem broccoli which was al dente to the point of being inedible(and I prefer al dente vegetables normally)there was very little atmosphere and the staff whilst polite weren't exactly welcomingthe maitre d was quite officious.I may be being a bit unfair as it was father"s day and fairly busy, and the previous owners did make the place special so the new owners have a lot to live up to. I have had worse meals but not sure whether I will go back

Have driven past this pub so many times but today was the day to visit. Great atmosphere and top service, so much so we booked to return next Friday :-)

Lovely friendly staff. Delightful wine. Sadly the food was dreadful. Started with Courgette and Halumi Croquettes. Frankly dried bullets and tomato sauce would be more accurate. Main was Lamb. The rack was lively after sending it back to be cooked. I like rare but not raw. The shredded shoulder with it was simply a burnt dry patty. Pudding… I’m a lover of these. Again, disappointed. Such a shame. Previous visits have been fantastic . I’m not one to complain but I won’t be going back nor recommending to others.

My husband and I visited The Red Lion for our wedding anniversary last Saturday night. I have to say how impressed we were as we wanted to book somewhere close to where we were staying.From the moment we arrived the staff were attentive and looked after us. They even gave us a little anniversary card, which was a nice touch. The food was fantastic, we had the steak and it was beautifully cooked. Could not fault anything about this place. Will definitely be visiting again when in the area. Thank you x

Had a lovely family get together over lunch here. Dining al fresco under the pergola in the sunshine. Lovely views, great food and excellent friendly service. Our first visit and definitely a find!

Came here on a Sunday expecting a roast dinner to arrive with the only one option of lamb and then when ordered then got told there was no lamb left either so then ordered fish and chips with curry sauce which had no flavour so asked for a side of gravy and chef said they couldn’t give us any and service wasn’t great overall wasn’t happy and would not return

We chanced upon The Red Lion at Claverdon after a visit to Warwick Castle, we were very pleasantly surprised. The pub was very nice with a lovely garden area. Alina and Shamita looked after us they were very friendly and attentive. We had the light lunch option and the burger the food was excellent and substantial. Would absolutely recommend eating there or dropping in just for a drink you will be made to feel welcome.

A chance to go back to the Red Lion just wasn’t to be passed up. Once again the food was delicious to eat and the staff were so attentive. Also in these time I felt really safe with all to measures put in place to protect customers and staff from COVID.

This was our first visit to the Red Lion and we booked a table through their website for a Sunday dinner. We really enjoyed the food and I’d go as far to say we haven’t had a better Sunday roast in a pub for a long time. The service was very attentive and friendly and helped to make our visit very special. Would we go again - absolutely no question. Thanks to all the staff at the Red Lion For going the extra mile to make this first visit such a memorable one.

We called in for lunch and after reading recent reviews were looking forward to visiting Red lion,As someone that suffers from anxiety and cloister phobia when wearing a mask as I entered the restaurant without a mask on a gentleman that was behind the bar said you have to wear a mask at which point he rushed from behind the bar saying again you have to were a mask then offering me one at that point I said I’m ok thanks.He still persisted even though I was wearing a lanyard with mask exemption on with has a badge holder saying I have a disability.He was very aggressive when I ask him if he could read he was extremely rude saying there’s no need to take that attitude.I then asked what there disability policy was, this would be how staff are trained to talk to disabled customers and make them feel at ease this request was not answered By this time I’m feeling extremely anxious as I’m having to explain my disability.My wife was wearing her mask and filling out the track & trace . We we’re shown to a table by a very polite and nicely spoke lady , I must say her customer service was excellent which made the rest of our experience good .The food was excellent , well presented and extremely tasty.When finished we were brought our bill which on our way out I took to the bar as passing said thank you to which I got a groan from the gentleman behind bar , as I used the wc on the way out which are in the exit hallway as I came out the gentleman was there with his back to us sorting menus on a small table , never got a thank you or a goodbye.So I would say the food was very good , serving staff friendly but the gentleman behind bar who,s position in the company I don’t know was not at all friendly .Maybe if you have a disability that can be easily visible you may be welcomed better, but lots of people have hidden disability’s I would ask that the Red Lion address there disability training and staff pay attention to detail.
