"Top quality Sunday roast. You can tell the chef knows their onions. The gravy was the best. Great service and a well presented pub."

We came on the Bank Holiday Monday so the pub was understandably busy. As a result, food did take a while to arrive. I had specifically asked for a starter as a main course and was told that wasn’t an issue by the manager and the waitress. In spite of this, it came as a starter! I mentioned this to the waitress who just shrugged. There was no attempt to apologise or remedy the situation. As we’d already waited for a long time for food and my daughter and mother had their food already, I didn’t want to wait another 30 minutes. Strangely the waitress also insisted on taking away our side plates and napkins before eating. The food I had was good. The waitress was very unhelpful!

We visited the Red Lion on two occassions in a 2 week spell. Once for Sunday lunch with friends and once for an eveing meal with family. The lunch was excellent and was the reason for booking a table of 6 for an evening meal on a Monday...big mistake. The table I reserved in the restaurant for the evening meal, was changed to a small bar table (as the restaurant room was not in use) and the service was extremely slow, one of the starters didnt arrive, the waitress was new and totally overwelmed. I know that dining out on a Monday can be problematic but this was treadful and such a contrast to the Sunday lunch serving.

Firstly, I will start by saying they need to employ a cleaner…or perhaps a new one. The bathrooms are disgustingly filthy. The tables are more sticky than super glue. Had to ask 3 times for more drinks, my wine glass had something in it and a cobweb on top! How? Food was just greasy and we left feeling sad, deflated and sick.

Gorgeous pub with garden in obviously moneyed area of Somerset . Friendly attentive staff and a superb burger and fries preceded by Ham Hock terrine with pea purée. Menu well constructed with especially enticing deserts . Sitting in the garden having lunch was a beautiful experience. Largish car park. Will go again .
