Best KPortal Reviews

Our first time for food at The Red Lion Inn on Easter Sunday, we had only been once previously for a drink whilst passing through the area. A very warm welcome, service was just exceptional very attentive, food was absolutely delicious (photos to see for yourself!) and cleanliness was the best I’ve seen (5*!). The pub is so beautifully decorated throughout including the toilets and garden. We missed Rosie this time, but will be back again to see her! Thank you so much!
This pub visit is a must. We visit this area every Easter and it was great to see it has re opened with a high end refurbishment bringing back its real true heritage with warm comfortable traditional pub furnishings. With the most welcoming staff & local atmosphere we called in most days / evenings during our stay and had a chat with all. Lovely real ales, large gin selections and although we didn't eat at the time the menu and food looked 5 star with all tables being booked. It really made our relaxing holiday so pay them a visit when in the area as you won't be disappointed. Booking for food advisable but still room to call in for a drink.
Wonderful wonderful spot for a pint or some food, be it midday or an evening.
Owners are friendly, dogs allowed, decor is snug, good pub grub menu, what’s not to like?
(Also a couple of vegan options which is brilliant)
Visited here twice during our week here and will be back for sure.

We visited here last year for an evening meal. The owner and staff were welcoming. The atmosphere, food and beer were lovely. All the food was cooked, on site, by the owner. None of this re-heated stuff! Yes we will be visiting again.
Absolutely lovely, food is delicious and fresh, really enjoyed our time here and will definitely be coming back ❤️????????
Cosy pub with absolutely brilliant food, Dog friendly too which is a huge bonus. The lasagne and katsu curry dishes were brilliant.
Friendly and professional staff!
Thank you, we will be back!!
I live very closely to this pub, & have watched, eagerly, as the new owners totally refurbished it - & the job they did is totally first class!
I was able to pop in, with family, for a quick drink, soon after it opened, & was immediately welcomed by the new hosts.
The pub, itself, has-been beautifully refurbished, with an attention to detail that is amazing.
Everything has been done to a wonderful quality, & everywhere I looked, there was something interesting to see, both interesting, & quirky - just my type of place!.
The seating was grouped nicely, with a mixture of comfy chairs, & wooden benches, with cushions placed for comfort.
I had a lovely latte, as I don't drink alcohol, but my family were served pints, that they thoroughly enjoyed, & which were well priced, too - & very tasty, they told me! Lol
There was no food served there, at that time, but I think that will be happening soon - something I very much look forward to, living as closely as I do to it.
The whole atmosphere in the pub, is cosy & welcoming, with enough nooks & crannies to keep things nicely intimate, without having to literally rub shoulders with your fellow imbibers.
There is also a lovely beer garden at the back of the pub, which will be a wonderful spot to sit in sunny weather.
I watched all the work done to create this, plus the parking area, & the new owners have done an excellent job with everything!
There was a brand new block of toilets built, attached to the pub (the previous block, there, meant that customers had to brave all kinds of weather, especially in colder times). I didn't actually go in there, but have been told that it's been set up very nicely - so, if I do have occasion to need a visit, I'll update this review! ????

UPDATE:
I've been back to the Red Lion four times since they opened, now - that's a record for me! Lol
The first time was for the very first Sunday Lunch that was served there, & I had what must be the tastiest Roast Turkey Dinner, with ALL the trimmings, that I've had in years.
The portion size was so ample, that I ended up taking half of it home with me - my visiting daughter finished it off for me Lol
You have to book ahead for a place on Sundays, though, as they proved to be REALLY popular!
The second time I visited, was on a Friday lunch time, when I was feeling well enough to pop over there for lunch.
I had a basket meal of two fishcakes & chips. It's considered a reasonable portion for a quick lunch but, once again, I just couldn't finish it all - although I did manage to eat the two, very tasty, fish cakes that I'd ordered, & about six of the huge chips that were served with it - they all tasted so good!
The third time, my family came to visit me, so we popped over for a meal together, & I had the tastiest Vegetarian Lasagne that I've ever had, apart from my daughter's - I think the Red Lion's Lasagne beat her version, as much as I love it! Lol
Once again, the portions in our meals were very generous - we all ordered something different from the menu - but I actually finished most of mine, as it just tasted too good not to. I couldn't fit that last bit in, no matter what, though! Lol
The last time I went over to the Red Lion, it was to join my neighbours in a quiz night - I believe these are going to be a regular thing!
The pub was packed with people , & the quiz made it a fun night, with everyone taking it well if they lost.
I even amazed myself at actually answering some of the questions right! Lol
This quiz was a fundraiser, too, & I look forwards to joining in with more of them, as & when I'm able to!
I can see the Pub becoming a real hub of the village now.
The owners are wonderfully hospitable, & they're doing everything they can to entertain their customers, with a regular Open Mike night, various live singers, & many more things being planned for next year.
I wish Annette & Mike all the best in their endeavour, as they deserve it, with all the hard work they've put in on the Pub! ♥️
Have been in FOUR times, the first we were welcomed with a booklet of the renovations and made to feel VERY welcome, the second we talked to the landlord about leatherwork and his previous life and made to feel welcome, the third we were the only one's in and anticipating another friendly chat but this time we were ignored and grunted at, (he'd forgotten who we were) and we feel we were given a short measure of wine, the fourth, the same attitude persisted so rest assured, we won't be back. Consistency is the name of the game, landlord!
