The Red Lion - St Edmundsbury

Had an amazing Valentines night with friends. Food was excellent served quickly and hot and delicious. Staff were attentive and friendly. Great Value for money. And the red roses at the end of the meal (even for the men) was a lovely touch. Would certainly recommend them and will be going there again

Brilliant valentines meal with friends. Excellent food, great service and great value for money. Friendly atmosphere.

I attended this pub as part of a large group (26 people). After a 1.5hr wait to get mains. I first requested no gravy on my roast dinner. It was then taken away gravy washed off and returned to me. I tasted it and it tasted off and rancid. I informed staff member, no apology received meal was replaced with another meal. This was off near and smelly too. I asked staff member if they had tried it. I was told chef said it was fine. There were several people in group who had turkey meal too, lots said it tasted odd too. No apology received. Staff member then said oh well we won't charge you for turkey meals then. The pie meal also looked like casserole on a plate with a circle of pastry plonked on the top of it. Veggies and potatoes followed 10 mins later. I will never eat there again or recommend to anyone.

This place is something out of the 1960’s, seriously needs some redecoration, Is old and tired. The food not much better all pre heated, none of it fresh, roasties very stale. Left with heartburn. Just no.

I went with three friends yesterday and can honestly say that all our meals were excellent particularly the homemade Yorkshire Puddings! We will definitely go again when in the area.
