  “First time visitors to the Red Lion, dined in the garden at the rear. The service was excellent, the menu was superb with numerous gluten free options. The homemade quiche was first class. The Red Lion is also very dog friendly. Will definitely be returning and can highly recommend.”

  “Excellent experience at the Red Lion Inn! All staff were friendly, welcoming, and happy to engage in conversation. It was also lovely to have the choice of either sitting in the front or rear garden to eat our lunch. We chose the rear garden, and had a great table in the shade. Our meal was very enjoyable, full of flavour and didn't take long to arrive. The menu was also very interesting with different meals that you don't often expect on a pub selection. Thank you and we look forward to visiting again!”

  “The service was outstanding, kind, professional and attentive. Her name was Esme… and another gentleman working behind the bar.. The food and drinks matched… it’s not often you pop out to a pub and your can rate it 12 out of 10. Similarly the atmosphere was relaxed with a positive sunset evening vibe. It’s great to cycle there with the kids and they can play over the road on the cricket green, whilst you sit with the dog bathed in the sunset warm summer golden glow. Perfect.”

  “I met my wife in this pub 2023, and been travelling regularly since then. To my positive surprise this year 12 June 2026 the pub had new owners and just recently refurbished. The food is outstanding, I would say gastro at the minimum and premium restaurant. Everything is made from scratch in-hous, comes highly recommended. PS my wife says their sticky toffee pudding is the best ever 👌🏻”

  “We’ve been making the journey out of London to come to this pub for a few years now. It’s in a lovely location with great seating in the garden and out front looking over the village green. The food is brilliant, this time my husband had a very generous and tasty vegetarian roast and I had a really good quiche. We shared some starters that were excellent as well. They have a very friendly and hard working team who we’ve always found go above and beyond to be helpful. We found this at the end of a long dog walk originally, and it’s very dog friendly. Definitely recommend.”

  “Sunday Roast of dreams in a cosy pub with local village feel. What we had on the menu (we went sharing plates for starters & dessert); - pork belly bites - Roast Beef - Roast Chicken - cauliflower & leek gratin - basque cheesecake to finish As you can tell from the photos, the roasts were EPIC with lovely Yorkshire pudding, crispy roasties & gorgeous seasonal veg. Especially loved the gratin, which was sensational. Looking forward to visiting now Spring ☀️has arrived and fully experience their amazing #beergarden which looks fantastic and well looked after. Also get the cheesecake (even if you feel you are full, it’s a different stomach!).”

  “We went there for a Sunday lunch and it was worth the journey. Charlie is a great host, his smile greats you before him and he really knows how to make you feel comfortable. The same passion is shared with the team, attentive and calm. The food is exceptional, tasty, super tasty (and I'm a massive lover of Sunday Roast). We had the Yakitori pork belly bites (incredibly yummy), halloumi fries, broccoli and courgette fritters, bread and smoked butter. We all decided to go for the Sunday roast and here comes the challenge! The meat was perfectly cooked and juicy, homemade (huge) Yorkshire pudding, crispy roasted potatoes, trimmings and the gravy was the final touch. I never had a gravy that tasted so good so far! We finished with the crumble and sticky toffee pudding. Wines are at a very reasonable price, we were surrounded by regulars (the table behind has ordered the pan fried sea bass and the fillet was looking amazing and huge again) and they were all enthusiastic, we felt our Sunday had a purpose!”

  “This used to be a regular place to go to until we moved to Devon 7 years ago. We now love back in the area and decided to have lunch there today as the food was always top notch. It was absolutely amazing, from staff meeting you at the door to take you to your table, to the very tasty food they have to offer ( The cranberry and white chocolate cheesecake was delicious 😋!) Roast beef was cooked to perfection as was the roast chicken that my wife had. They also offer some Gluten Free options too. We look forward to visiting again soon. Thanks so much”

  “We went as a group mostly for the roast lunch - beef was great, gravy was good just not enough we had to ask for more. I didn’t have the Yorkshire pudding but apparently it was good. The potatoes could be better. Really cosy inside.”
