Red Lion Tavern

Terrible Have stayed here a few years ago, which was lovely, but this time was terrible, the pub itself was dirty and unwelcoming, bins outside were filthy and rubbish in the car park, .Staff tried their best but had no idea what was going on, we did not get in the room until 4.30pm, after looking for the keys, the room was not the one we had booked, but was clean enough,

Great place for a one night stay

The pub was not very busy staff were very slow . Food was not nice staff were rude and unhelpful could do with customer service course . That was just the manager . Only let down of the holiday . Could be a little gold mine with a little bit of customer service training and basic training especially in the kitchen on allergens

Loved this pub, the staff are super friendly and helpful. Food was amazing. The customer service was second to none of any of the pubs I've been to before. Good selection of alcohol. Exceeded my expectations. Overall extremely happy with the pub and staff, would definitely return and 100000% recommend to anyone.

Where to start, the meal was for our writing club Christmas lunch. The food had been pre ordered and there were ten of us. The food came out in dribs and drabs, I had almost finished my main course, when the last of the dishes were served. The beef ordered by some was really a piece of fat masquerading as meat. The fancy hot dog with caramelised onions for £16 ( see photo) wouldn’t even have been served in a greasy spoon. The pub did begrudgingly refund the money for that. However, the worst is yet to come. Half of the table had been drinking the water provided, when we realised that a slug had taken up residence in the water jug from which we had been drinking. The container was glass, so no excuse for not spotting it and heaven knows when it had last been cleaned. The water was replaced and we then had to ask for the glasses to be changed. Was there an apology or an attempt at amends. No the pub couldn’t care less. As has since been demonstrated by the ignoring of emails sent out lining our concerns. A really poor experience, which blighted what should have been a festive celebration.

We decided to eat at the Red Lion because it was a traditional dog friendly pub and the food looked very good value. It was a 20 minute walk in the pouring rain so we were soaked by the time we got there. We found a nice alcoves window table that gave us some space to dry off. We ordered Sirloin Steak, a G/T and a pint. To my astonishment it came to well under £50. The food was perfect and the service was friendly and efficient. This is a perfect Cotswold pub.
