The Red Lion

I use the Red Lion 5-10 times a year for business lunches and also friends and family evening meals Andy and his team are always spot on with service and I have never had a bad meal. Rarely would I risk a steak in a pub style restaurant, but I had an amazing fillet yesterday, cooked to perfection. It has prompted me to write this review. Highly recommend for drink in the dog friendly bar or a meal in the restaurant. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

We came to celebrate a 70th birthday party today, 14/10/23. Great service and good food. I seriously cannot fault the service we all received. Andy was looking after our group today, wow...this man was amazing. Absolutely spot on, service top notch. We were welcomed into the establishment with open arms, what a lovely pub with a good vibe. The food was delicious, everyone was happy with their meal today, myself too. I was on the plant based menu/ food and I was happy with what was served. Great experience indeed was had by us all, good service, great laughs and lots of fun. Thank you Red Lion, thank you Andy. 👍🏾

Stopped in for a second time, on our way to the ferry port at Newhaven. Greeted by Andy, who managed to get us a table despite my failure at doing a booking! We ate a lovely meal, (we couldn’t resist and ended up having 3 courses and feeling stuffed). There’s a working EV charger in the car park which is how we found this place, and is now our regular last stop before we head off to France.

WOW!!! What a find! The best pub we've visited 😀 Stopped on our way back from Gatwick Airport to charge the car and have something to eat. Helen greeted us on our arrival and was so bright and helpful. We eat in the restaurant, cheese burger and chicken burger being our choices. 😋 Absolutely lovely, burgers cooked to perfection, and the fries were fab. 👌 The whole place tastefully decorated, enhancing a beautiful building. Pleased to find good local patronage, both in the bar and the restaurant. 😀 Wish we lived closer; The Red Lion would definitely be our local! THOROUGHLY RECOMMEND TO ALL!!!

We went as a family for a special celebration and were given a very warm welcome. The pub has a lovely relaxed atmosphere. We were shown to the table and were given plenty of time to pick what we wanted to eat and drink. Food was excellent and the staff were polite and attentive. They even let us bring our own cake as part of the celebration! Highly recommended and will be going back again for a sunday roast!
