The Red Lion At Brafield

Lovely pub, lovely staff, fantastic Sunday lunch why go anywhere else. Excellent service. Pork loin was delicious and the cracking I needed more it was the best every. Love our visits to this pub Chris is a brilliant manager be back real soon.

Very disappointed today after always having superb food and service. Service was slow at best and not busy. The usually delicious fish and chips was not good today, very greasy. Had to order desert at the bar after a long wait. Not sure we will be returning soon.

Not been here for few years and came with family to check it out again. Well it was a very successful visit. Efficiently organised pub with a great menu. The food was excellent with huge portions, lovely staff too. Will come again as it’s also close. My only complaint no French mustard! Ver carta

A group of six of us had our 'Office Christmas Do' at this restaurant. Booking a table was simple through the website, and the staff were friendly when I had a question. We emailed our choices ahead of time from the Festive Menu and all our dishes arrived as requested. Everyone agreed that the food was delicious and couldn't find any faults. We also appreciated the spacious round table which made dining with a larger group much more enjoyable. Great job, Red Lion!

We experienced a very long wait to be served at this restaurant. Initially, our drinks were served promptly within 5-10 minutes, but then we were neglected for quite some time. The young waitresses seemed more focused on their phones and chatting rather than attending to us. The staff were friendly overall, but it felt like they needed better leadership. It took us 25 minutes before we were able to place our order. However, the food arrived quickly and was absolutely delicious. We would give the food 5 stars! We plan on returning, but hope that the service can be improved and become more efficient.

Not easy to find a pub that serves food in the evening on a Sunday after the lunchtime rush is over. Although some of the food options had sold out by the time we dined at 7pm, the quality of the roast beef dinner was surprisingly good. The beef was still quite rare and the vegetables were tasty. The Yorkshire pudding was a little dry and the potatoes slightly hard but still edible. The New York cheesecake was excellent as was the non-alcoholic cocktail. We were encouraged to leave a little earlier than the two hour slot we had booked but the staff were very polite about it and we could see they had had a long day so didn't mind. Ver carta

We love visiting this pub especially if we can sit outside however on this occassion we thought we would struggle to get a table inside following the storm however after a little wait we managed to get a table inside. Both of us had the Sunday roast beef and it was cooked to perfection, the cauliflower cheese was the best we had ever had nothing about the Sunday lunch could be faulted. The pub was extremely busy inside following the storm as all the guests that were outside had to be found tables inside but the waiting staff carried on regardless and the lovely manager was stressed but buying him a drink he soon mellowed. Absolutely lovely pub and staff. PS your belly pork is absolutely deli...

I have been to The Red Lion many times before and have always being extremely satisfied with the food, service and ambiance. However yesterday we were left feeling very disappointed and underwhelmed. We chose The Red Lion to celebrate mine and a friend 's birthday. The main courses were very good and we have no complaints on that score. Our server Matthew was also exemplary. He was however taken off our table and was requested to work inside due to the storms and the amount of people who had moved into the bar. However the desserts which were brought out (Eton Mess) by another server were presented in small wine glasses. The server told us that due to 'breakage, theft and damage wine glasses...

I come here every year to celebrate my birthday with family, we love the outside area so the kids can play in between courses. I have to say that today is the first time I can safety say I was truly disappointed with it. Having paid a deposit of £160 to hold our reservation and giving them our pre order a couple of days before hand, they still made mistakes. First of all we had our starters which was all good, then my daughter wanted more calamari so I ordered another 2, they came and it was lovely. Then they brought out 2 lamb ragus and I preordered 1, the server was a bit off with me when I said it was wrong, then my daughter (who’s birthday 12th birthday was yesterday) and my nephew got t...
