Called in for lunch whilst visiting the area. Very friendly welcome and delicious food. Thought it would be quiet as off the main road but obviously well-known. Really couldn’t fault it at all and will certainly be back when in the area. Thanks to everyone.

Went for overnight stay with friends. WiFi - code only given to residents. Shown to room, which at first blush seemed ok ( only dropped case off and took note of WiFi code). WiFi code incorrect and when asked got told it had not been updated and was for residents only ( yes you’ve just shown us to our room 🤷‍♀️🤦‍♀️). Meal was ok apart from severely chipped plate used for starter and desert (mousse not set and more like thick custard). Went to bed. Pillows so thin had to fold over to use. When moving said pillows noticed markings through bottom sheet ( sheet also very thin). On closer inspection mattress was vile. Heavily stained 🤮. Went downstairs to ask about changing room as fan in bathroom also really dusty. Found internal door between bar and accommodation locked and bar in complete darkness at 9:41pm. Emergency exist door wide open, no-one around. Next morning no-one to raise concerns with as no-one around and emergency exit still wide open ( we left via this), clearly had been left open all night, so no security as accommodation then open to all. Would not recommend

My husband and I are always going out for Saturday and Sunday lunch supporting local businesses. But nowadays there is only 1 place to go around for amazing food and it is just SPECTACULAR. They must make sure the chef,Anna and the Manager stays as this is the only pub nowadays to have exceptional food in the area

Was hoping things had changed at the red lion hibaldstow, but sadly no. Rude staff, who seemed to be annoyed you have come to their establishment. They say there is no customer WiFi as "it will crash the system" however all three staff stood around at the bar on their phones like teenagers. No "hello's " or "welcomes" or pleasantries whatsoever. Certainly won't be returning.

I took my sister-in-law out to The Red Lion for lunch as a treat for her birthday. I had other places under consideration but chose this one because the pictures of the food looked good. When we walked in there was a youngish man doing something to one of the tables and being the polite person I am I said hello and that I hoped we weren't too early (it was just past 12noon but others were sat outside in the sun waiting to go in). I asked where it was ok to sit and he just waved dismissively as if to say "anywhere". Not a good start/ The young blonde who then appeared behind the bar was, however, very pleasant, friendly and attentive. We ordered and the food came out fairly quickly, delivered by the not so friendly man. It looked ok and the taste was ok but there was absolutely no sauce and very little beef mince (it was a lasagne) so essentially it was tomato, melted cheese and layers of pasta. I wanted to say something but because it was a birthday "treat" my sister-in -law didn't want to make a fuss. We tried, ate the bit of salad and half the garlic bread but left the stodge. I went to pay and the young lady asked if everything was alright so I told her how dry it was. Now, I am a firm believer that if there is a problem with the food it should be flagged up for the attention of the staff before finishing so I didn't expect anything to be done, rather I wanted them to know for future. I paid and the young lady said she had taken 5% off in recognition of this. So, plus points for the small monetary acknowledgement but sadly this really spoilt what was meant to be an enjoyable experience. I will vote with my feet and not go back, nor would I recommend - well not the lasagne anyway. I appreciate that views and reviews are very subjective but this was not the case here - no one wants to eat a lasagne lacking in the basics. We didn't stay for coffee, especially as we were sat right by the coffee machine and watched the man make a "cappuccino" requested by a customer. The all-singing- all-dancing coffee machine had lovely coffee beans on display yet he got a teaspoon and took a teaspoon of coffee powder from a plastic tub that said Nescafe, put it in a cup, added a little boiling water, stirred it, then added hot milk from the coffee machine, no froth in evidence but he did add sprinkles of chocolate. Such a shame. Oh, and while I'm at it, the decor could do with updating/renewing too. The chairs at our table were very worn and stained.

Attended a funeral reception of a family member on 6 March. No one greeted the family on arrival. The place smelled as soon as we walked through the door, it hit us. The ladies powder room smelled damp and dirty. Everyone ordered hot drinks when we arrived as we were all cold. A friend ordered theirs and asked us what we would like. So the order ended up as three pots of tea and one coffee. When the waitress brought the tray, there were three cups and saucers, milk and two small, teapots. I told the waitress that we had ordered three teas and a coffee. She actually said "there's enough there for three cups"! I repeated that we had ordered and paid for three and she said we could have another if "we wanted". Well obviously, because that's what we ordered and paid for! Eventually the third pot arrived along with the coffee. The side room we were to use looked OK but once we entered, the tables were sticky, dirty and had crumbs on them. There was a bench seat at the far end of the room, no one sat there because it was absolutely filthy! The buffet which had been ordered for 1pm was what I can only describe as ridiculous. The order was for 18 people and what was served, in my opinion, was a shoddy example of a buffet. I know for a fact that the cost was £10.95 per person. The sandwiches were very basic, ham and mustard (very little ham too much mustard), turkey and cranberry and meat paste! The vegetarian option was beyond comprehension, coleslaw with a tiny piece of lettuce. They were supposed to be cheese and coleslaw apparently but there was no cheese to be seen. Also the vegetarian options were mixed on the same plates as the other sandwiches! There were supposed to be tuna ones too but I didn't see those. There was one small dish of pasta, one small bowl of coleslaw. sausage roll and pork pie. There was no mixed salad. There were a few fish goujons. Catering for 18 people - sorry, more like 10 people. The "desert platter" was beyond a joke! Two small oblong plates with a few one inch square chocolate brownie type of cakes and two slices (on each plate) of something I can't describe, and that was supposed to for for 18 people! The person serving at the bar where we ordered hot drinks never smiled and wasn't welcoming at all. Someone else came round to clear the tables, she was miserable too. Such a shame that this happened. The owners and staff should be ashamed. The telephone is never answered, you can leave a message, but even if you do this, no one calls back. Also, it was stated in an email from the Red Lion, that we were to leave by 2.45pm. What on earth were they hosting, a children's party! RED LION, you will probably ignore this but, if you want to stay in business, I suggest you up your game AND give all staff some training in hospitality! Future customers, beware!

It was a cold Saturday in February and our day started with hanging some light pendants in the kitchen. This turned out to be a messy, dusty job with plaster dust falling over me from the drill right from the get-go. A few arguments ensued and at 12.15, once the job had successfully been finished, I suggested we go out for a break and a spot of lunch. Mrs Wanderer browsed her phone and after a few false starts came up with the Red Lion at Redbourne, a short ten minute drive from us. A quick call confirmed that there was space for lunch. Redbourne is a lovely Lincolnshire village and the pub stands proudly on the village green. It has its own ‘Fire Station’ museum attached to it. There is a large carpark opposite which had plenty of cars in it – a good sign for the food on offer. Previous visits have been spoiled by the loudspeakers playing music on the front of the pub which used to rattle the peace-and-quiet of the village. It became evident on entry that the pub is under ‘newer’ hands and the speakers have now gone. The pub is clean and modern inside and there are plenty of tables to choose from in the bar area as well as a restaurant towards the back. There are plenty of choices of ales and lagers as well as craft beer such as one of my favourites, ‘Neck Oil, a lovely citrusy summer-style beer. The waiting and serving staff are pleasant with a smile on their faces which makes for an enjoyable experience. We were shown to our table in the far corner underneath a large TV but thankfully the sound was off. The specials on the menu looked lovely, especially the risotto and, if I had the appetite, the ‘Little Baby Cheesus’ which comprised of a number of beef patties in a blue cheese sauce wrapped inside a brioche bun would have hit the spot. Anyhow, we went for the Lite Bites menu instead. Mrs Wanderer chose the fish goujons with chips, mushy peas and tartare sauce. A mini fish and chips by all accounts. I, in turn, opted for the Southern Fried chicken strips with chips, salad and coleslaw. A glass of Theakston’s Best and a large Shiraz also ordered (we felt we deserved it after the morning’s work). On arrival we both went “Wow!”. Lite Bites are one thing but this was a substantial meal in its own right. We tucked in. Mrs W said the batter on the fish was exceptionally crispy and not at all soggy as is often the case. My three large chicken strips had a lovely spicy coating and the chips were crispy with no trace of excess oil. The salad was nicely dressed with a French dressing and the chips were superb. At the end we came away from the meal feeling pleasantly stuffed but not overly so. We have both said that the Red Lion is our ‘go to’ pub now when we need a quick hop out for lunch. Well worth a visit! Read my other reviews at willoughtonwanderer.blog

Went to the Red Lion last Monday for food, 40% - off wow! However… There was a till malfunction, for some reason the 40% off didn’t register. I hadn’t realised until I went home. We went back to the pub a couple of days later to claim our £29 back. The poor girl who served us that evening was told by the owner she had to pay this out of her own pocket - even though this was a till malfunction. The owner ‘Kyle’, was extremely rude. The £29 extra we paid that evening went into HIS pocket. Yet he expects his poor staff to pay that out of their wages! I have never known such poor staff treatment, and really feel for the girls who have been working there for years… what was once such a lovely place ran by Connor is now such a negative environment. We have been customers at The Red Lion for years, 3 generations of family having worked there. And now barred because we disagree with the treatment of staff…. Shocking! Please don’t support this man and his business - such a shame. We did let him know that we would be leaving a review, to which he was not happy. I can only imagine it’s because he knows he is in the wrong, taking money from his own staff to profit himself.
