Just a quick pint, then I'm off left this review about The Red Lion
Imposing old roadhouse, still doing good business as a food-led pub on the far side of a ferociously fast road from the nearby village. The mix of traditional and (mostly) modern features in the front bar and rear dining areas works well enough. Two of three handpumps in use, with the Deuchar's IPA supplemented by the very peculiar tea-infused Adnams T-Drop (£3.50) and the golden Zesty Jester from Kansas Avenue coming on next.
