The Red Lion is a well presented pub, very smartly done. 3 ales on including Wye Valley HPA and Purity Mad Goose, both of which were fine. I would happily call in again.

Just a quick pint, then I'm off left this review about The Red Lion
Although describing itself as a 'Tapas Bar & Kitchen, this very much looks a feels like a pub. The two-part bar with side and rear rooms has been refurbished in a plain semi-modern style, with perhaps a third of the tables set aside for dining. Real ale definitely remains a feature, with Pride, Tribute, Purity Mad Goose (£3.80) and Sharp's Sea Fury available from four of six handpumps.

Soup Dragon left this review about The Pepper Mill
Formerly the Pepper Mill, it has now returned to its original name of the Red Lion. It is an end terrace pub/eatery, with rear area. The pub is at least Victorian and looks like two buildings that have been knocked through - with its two doors and differing styled roofing and windows. It is in white render. It has two rooms; that to the left is a restaurant area, which i didn't really see. That to the right is the bar/lounge. This room curves around the bat that faces you and is on two levels, with a small side area. The decor appears to be two-tone grey, with some green and a mainly tartan carpet. There is a TV, which wasn't on. There were not really any pictures and a few books are scattered about. The music was soft and mixed. The service was friendly. Beer; usual taps with Kosel, Sargus and another continental lager, with 5 handpulls; Young's London Gold, Thwaites Lancater Bomber, Rev James, Robinson's Trooper and one i failed to note in a schoolboy error way. The Trooper and the unlisted were very good. This was a real find beer-wise and I could cope with the decor, definitely one i would return to.
