Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

We were interested to try this pub as it was very local to us. We enjoyed our food although the lunch time menu was very restricted as it appears that there is a bigger choice in the evening. Our shared starter was pate which seemed straight from the supermarket served with white toast..brown wholemeal would have been preferable. My fish with chips and peas was very acceptable as was the steak pie my husband chose. But the dessert of chocolate torte looked brought in. Unfortunately it was a very cold day and the fire in the far room did not heat the area where we were The service was good and the waitress friendly and chatty. The price of the food was very reasonable but there did not seem to be much evidence of local produce or home cooking sadly so we might wait till better weather and a bigger choice of food before we return if ever

We had a delightful Sunday roast here - a table for 10 was never an ideal ask on Mothering Sunday but the staff were immediately accommodating and recommended pre-ordering to ensure we got our first choices! The portions were hot, large and tasty with an excellent selection of veg. The apple crumble for dessert was especially good and the garden area was a big hit with our kids. All the staff were friendly and chatty, with no raised eyebrows when the kids made noise. We had a lovely meal and will definitely be back!

After being very unorganised this year we have had what was a lovely Mothers Day lunch and thank you for accommodating a last minute booking. Food was delicious and thank you for flexibility for a fussy four year old. You were all so helpful and friendly.
We are so glad we found you and will all definitely be back soon.
Thank you

I’ve eaten here on four occasions in the past couple of months and every time it has been great. The food is good and reasonably priced and the local real ale is perfect. Very friendly and polite staff.

An enjoyable lunch - the food was good and all my colleagues enjoyed their choices.
The experience was however negatively affected by the poor payment processes - the internet connection afforded to the staff was rather dodgy so contactless payments were patchy. Thankfully I'd got enough cash to pay so avoided continued embarrassment and delay in getting back to my colleagues.
Hope that investment in a better router will mean that future customers don't have the same problems delaying their payments.

Amazing dinner gluten free fish and chips home made gf batter and tartar sauce, gf apple pie. Lovely pub with wood burners and so welcoming. Really excited to have found a pub in the the area which serves homemade, delicious and good portion sized food. Loved the decor too x

What a fantastic job Ed and Debbie have done throughout the pandemic.
We were in the pub the night the government announced pubs had to close and we wondered when we would be able to have Ed’s cooking again or a nice pint or two of Tring beer and a appletise.
Thankfully they quickly set up a delivery service and what a great menu and service they have provided.
Best fish & chips around, they even got dairy free cream in so I could have a curry one Tuesday night now that’s customer service.
After four months away we have just returned from our first visit and what a fantastic safe space they have created but there is still that local pub charm. They have kitted out the pub so well with screens, easy clean table tops, hand sanitiser, temperature checks and very clear areas that you can occupy.
So glad we can once again go to the pub and know that Ed and Debbie have done everything they can to make the experience as safe as possible in these times.

Visited the Red Lion for their burger menu. A real treat and lovely options. I had the wagyu burger and my husband had the moroccan lamb burger. They were well prepared with perfect sides (chips and salad). Well presented on wooden boards, with enough space to deconstruct (as it was so big!).
Service was great, a good choice of wines by the glass, draft ales and lagers, flavoured gins etc.
Well worth a visit - just for dinner or at the end of a lovely country walk, visit to the zoo, cycle ride etc - all in this Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.

Yet another excellent meal for 13 family & friends. All food freshly cooked and meals came out together. Staff are excellent, friendly & nothing is too much trouble. No rush so can stay as long as you want to. Highly recommended.

Eaten here several times now and cannot fault the food and size of the meals. The staff are always welcoming and friendly. The pub is cosy and warm, helped by the log burner in the winter months. Highly recommended.

I’d like to take my hat off to Debs and Ed. Tonight we tasted their takeaway curry for the first time and it didn’t disappoint. They delivered due to the latest restrictions. The onion bhajis were amazing. Definitely worth the money. May we sample more takeaways!

Thank you to Debbie & Ed. My Dad has had fantastic fish and chips delivered to his door every week. We did a big order when it was his birthday and the whole family had a fantastic meal. Great service and great food.

Booked for Sunday lunch; just before Christmas.
Have visited pub for a drink but not overly impressed. Friends recommended and booked.
Freezing cold on the day we visited but the whole pub was warm and cosy. Sat on sofas by the fire. Served drinks quickly and sat down. As it happens the World Cup was on tv. We asked to stay in our seats for lunch.
Lunch was served. All piping hot. Turkey dinner was excellent. Vegetables not over cooked and just as I like them. Other roasts good too.
Staff very friendly and accommodating. Would recommend.

Excellent customer service. This pub is so comfy cosy. Always a lovely environment and Debbie & Ed are so welcoming. This is the only pub we come to. Fish & chips are perfect and excellent value for money. Has to be the best Guinness just like ireland.
