A bit of a splurge for a burger, but worth it for a treat with mates. The large chips are massive, we ended up sharing one portion between three of us! 😄

The steak and ale pie is the reason I keep coming back. The pastry is perfectly flaky and the filling is rich and hearty, packed with tender beef. It&#39;s exactly what you want from a classic pub dish.

The staff really knew their gins and rums, helped us pick something new. Perfect for a catch-up with friends.

Manager was helpful with menu questions, gave solid suggestions. Staff service was quick and polite. Efficient overall, which is what I look for during a business lunch.

Decent portions, so I usually have leftovers for lunch. Food&#39;s tasty, no complaints there. The house red was a solid match for the hearty mains. Service was on point. Good vibes, as always.

Stopped in after my first choice was booked. The pizza was solid, better than I thought for the price. Good for families - they have highchairs and a changing table. Handy location for a quick meal.

The food was so hot it almost burned my tongue. That&#39;s a good thing, though. A solid choice for a quick, no-fuss meal.

The Great Hall is a stunner. You can feel the history in the room. Had the steak and ale pie in there - proper comfort food, the pastry was spot on. A nice, relaxed spot for a proper meal.

Been here a few times for after-work pints. Solid selection of beers, never too crowded. Tried the fish and chips last visit - decent portion, cooked well. A reliable spot for a straightforward meal and a drink.

Popped in for a Sunday roast after a walk. The beef was spot on, really tender, and the Yorkshire pudding was perfect. Sat outside by the water, just a nice, relaxed vibe.

Nice spot for a catch-up! The fry-up was solid, and it&#39;s got that bright, clean vibe. Perfect for a chilled lunch with mates.

Simple, quality food, clearly made with care. The vintage china cups were a lovely detail. I had a glass of their house red with the stew, and it was a really nice pairing. Felt like a proper family-run spot.

Been coming here for years. The takeaway prices are still really reasonable, and the food&#39;s always as good as I remember. It&#39;s just a reliable spot for a curry.

First time trying their pumpkin pizza and wow, that sweet puree with the salty pancetta really hit the spot. The rosemary was a nice touch too. Crust was perfectly crunchy, just like their other pizzas. A solid new option.

Love the historic building, so much character! The steep stairs are a bit tricky, but it&#39;s part of the charm. Perfect for a quirky catch-up with friends.

A lovely spot for coffee and cake. The chocolate torte was very rich, just how I like it. I also appreciated the choice of decaf drinks. The staff were friendly and the seating was comfortable, which made for a relaxed visit.

Stopped by for a quick bite. The Oakham Citra was spot on, honestly the best pint I&rsquo;ve had in ages. Food was decent too. Just a solid place for a beer.

Nice little spot to duck in from the rain with the dog. Had the poached eggs and avocado. The yolk was runny just right, and the seasoning was spot on. Staff were friendly. Decent quick lunch.

The Red Lion offers an exceptional dining experience with attentive service from staff like Jack and Gracie, making every visit memorable.

The owner is so chill, made our girls&#39; night feel really special.

Fantastic food and great service. Highly recommend a visit. Can&#39;t believe how good it was. Can&#39;t fault them at all. Top marks all around.

Been coming here for years. The portions are always huge, and you can see them cooking everything fresh right there. That&#39;s what keeps me coming back.

Last morning in Cambridge, had to come back for the Menemen. The eggs were so fresh and the flavours just popped. That cappuccino was the perfect warm-up. Staff were really lovely, made it a nice quiet start to the day.

Nice local. The vegan options are a real plus - had the jackfruit burger last night and it was spot on. Staff are always friendly, quiz night&#39;s a laugh. Food&#39;s generally reliable, just wish the portions were a bit bigger for the price.

Staff were really nice about my vegan order. Double-checked the ingredients for me without me even asking. Made me feel looked after.

Been going here for years. Their Sunday roast is the real deal - the beef is always tender, and the roasties are spot on. Hard to beat locally.
