Literally the most friendly pub I’ve ever been in so we had an issue with the pool table and he fixed it straight away and then people had a massive party and there was food left over and he just let us have it literally the best pub I’ve ever been to would 100% recommend very kind man and tasty food 😎

We didn't have any food, as we were having an informal Committee Meeting but Joy & Godfrey were exceptionally welcoming hosts and had arranged to accommodate us at short notice. The pub layout now makes so much more sense and a huge effort is being made with all the events they now lay on. Superb job, Red Lion.

We recently stayed at the cart arms in Gloucester, upon arrival we found there was no pool table as advertised so we called the red lion to ask if they happened to have one and if we could eat there too. It was the best thing we ever did!! We were met by some of the loveliest people - joy and Godfrey were not only warm and welcoming but we left feeling like we’d made some lovely friends. They were so amazing with our children also and had so many things for us to occupy our time there, play park, darts, skittles and a pool table. The patrons also seemed so friendly and there were lots of regulars which made you feel it was the place to be. We would hope to maybe next time stay within their accommodation but will definitely return. Thank you so much - Pam & John xx

If you love anything about uk, it must rank highly to be able to walk into a friendly pub, have some home cooked food (excellent), a beer or two, and chat with a stranger or two. I would like to see more people supporting these great pubs in rural areas.

Had a very enjoyable meal here on the 3rd of August. The staff were really helpful and friendly. After ordering the food we chose from a good selection of beers and wines competitively priced. It was not long after that our food arrived and we were not disappointed it was lovely. There were desserts on offer, but we were unable to sample due to being too full. We will definitely be going back for another visit.

An excellent pub. Really friendly staff, children were welcome too. It's so nice to see a pub which isn't a cut and paste chain. The food was yummy and there was a good selection of vegetarian/vegan. There is a well maintained play area in the garden too. My only criticism was the ladies toilet was in need of TLC. The sanitary products machine was out of order, one of the locks was broken to the toilet door and the loo roll holders where broken. Otherwise it is an excellent pub I would highly recommend

Warm and cosy bar area with wood panelling. Its a lovely pub and the disappointment was we were the only ones there. Locals, support your local pub! Or lose it.

The absolute worst Sunday roast dinner we have ever had . When they brought out the dinner with 2 roast potatoes which were covered in some kind of metal residue still attached next to the 2 slices of roast beef which looked grey and unappealing a overheated premade Yorkshire pudding which was so hard even when covered in the bisto granules lumpy gravy we were still unable to cut through it. The chicken breast was obviously an just reheated frozen lump. The carrots were not prepared or cleaned in anyway . Lamb shank again frozen and reheated very very salty . A very unpleasant experience . The lady behind the bar kindly did not charge full price for the uneaten lamb shank and did not charge us for the drinks we had ordered. I would not recommend the red lion for any food at all

Fish and chips that seemed to come straight from the freezer. The batter was then overcooked. So the food was disappointing. The place was almost empty so had no atmosphere. But that wasn’t anyone’s fault and the service was friendly and efficient.
