  “I visited the pub briefly to buy a soft drink. Using their carpark which I assumed was for their customers landed me with a £60 parking fine. The entrance to the car park is on a busy road which doesn't give you time to notice and read the sign that states you have to register with them in order to use the car park. Bizarre business strategy to entrap their customers.”

  “I went in for food, but didn't stay. The choice was not great and the atmosphere was lacking. The worst thing was that there was a very large pothole on entering the car park, which is unavoidable as it is so large, and even though I went extremely slow I still heard a scrape on my car rim or underbody. Luckily there was no visible damage.”

  “I went to the Red Lion yesterday with my Disabled friend Richard. The owner and his staff could not have been more helpful. Helping to manoeuvre Richard inside. Believe me that is not an easy task and they did it with patience personified. The roast beef was delicious and the two young men serving tables were brilliant- could not do enough for you. What a delightful experience it was, give them a visit. Pam Gaynon”

  “Absolutely lovely Sunday roast. Huge portion too. Had pigs in blankets for my dog, again, huge portion. Would definitely recommend. There is a beautiful walk along the river to get here too.”

  “Popped here today with the pug after a walk. Had a refurb and its absolutely lovely. 1 braised steak and 1 lasagne. Varied menu and reasonably priced. Not sure what prices the drinks are as only had pop. Will definitely call again. Edit: Sept 23 - 4 and a baby! Clara is amazing and her team still working hard. Nothing too much trouble. All meals were tasty and served on time (and piping hot). Baby Daisy loving her veg! Our new favourite when it's a famalan trip out. Well done team. See you soon for family Sunday lunch (with the pug who gets cucumber as a treat) ☺”

  “I have to be honest and say the Red Lion has had a turbulent few months with a few changes in management. This afternoon I decided to give it another go and I have not been disappointed. The menu has been revised and prices much more affordable. Good selection of choices on menu including vegetarian. I went for the braised steak and was not disappointed. Excellent food and well presented. Service was excellent. Staff were very friendly. The decor for Halloween was awesome and it feels like there is some soul coming back into this pub finally! What ever the new management are doing keep doing it. Well done. I will definitely be coming back again.”

  “Little drop-in for lunch after shopping. Clean and newly refurbished. Staff friendly and welcoming. Good range of food on the menu. The fish and chips was excellent. Red Lion ale went down very nicely. Not strictly "local" for us but definitely worth the walk there for a decent pint.”

  “A real shame…… Has been done up nice but everything else about the RED LION isn’t great. It’s understandable staff are new and learning but First visit many drinks not Available even simple drinks. Queuing is awkward getting served is slow and painful. Second visit. The food was poor After being told items weren’t available on the menu choosing something else the burger came out burnt. Choosing one star is hard because it’s a lovely place to be both inside and out but the poor stock levels / items unavailable and the food being burnt gives no confidence to go back.”

  “One of the great pleasures of the last couple of days is mooring up next to the Red Lion in Winsford. The staff are really good, the food was outstanding (excellent vegan options) and the place was comfortable, clean and relaxing.”
