Our kitchen is closed today Thursday 20th August for one day only.

With planned National Grid power outage over our lunchtime hours 🤦‍♂️ We have taken the decision to close the kitchen.

We are open as normal from midday to 11pm for drinks only.

Don’t worry we are using this day off wisely with a team building Padel Tournament and a brewery visit at Braybrook Taproom. 🏆

🍻🥂What a crazy month June has been!! 🥂🍻

Busy, very Hot 🥵 & the feeling summer has finally arrived!! ☀️

We have really enjoyed our June Menu, our gyros, curried cod, bavette steak and of course our burgers have all been supper popular & your feed back has been great 👍

Summer months are definitely when we see a lot of new customers using our fantastic village pub, just passing through or on a recommendation to visit. The pub garden has been buzzing with drinkers & dinners constantly some days.

The chefs have been working hard in a hot kitchen to deliver our fresh menu 7 days a week. They are working at changing our menu into July so be sure to come and give it a try!

If you know you are coming to eat please book in ahead, we do squeeze walk ins when we can but to guarantee a table for food please drop us a call

We look forward to another busy month and welcoming even more new customers but most importantly our regulars who use us as their village local 🥰

Cheers 🍻

From Simon, Louise & and The Team ❤️

Join the campaign

Hospitality is one of the UK’s greatest success
stories. It employs millions of people, gives
young people their first jobs, keeps high streets
alive and brings communities together.

But we as a sector are under enormous pressure.

On 1 July, the hospitality industry is coming
together to launch ‘VAT’s the Problem’ — the
united sector campaign calling for hospitality
VAT to be reduced from 20% to 10%.

Yes, we are 100% behind our industry leaders with this campaign.

If you'd like to support the campaign too, we'd be incredibly grateful if you could sign the petition and share it with your friends and family. Every signature helps show how much local hospitality maters.

Many Thanks

Simon, Louise & the Red Lion Team x
