The Red Lion Yardley Hastings Northampton

We've just had a wonderful meal in The Red Lion it was definitely nicer than my recent meal Farringdon's Bleeding Heart Bistro (and this as a very good meal), and I'm happy to report that it has returned to the same standard not seen in more than 5 years (since 2018). I'm half minded to make this an appalling review, just so I can keep The Red Lion for myself; but the reality is, that we've just had the nicest pork and chorizo burger, and lamb with dauphinoise potatoes. Highly recommend the sticky banoffee pudding, although next time, I think I'll switch the custard for ice cream. Thanks guys

By any standard this was not a good experience. Sunday lunch in an near empty pub . The food was warm. The quality poor. Service slow. Staff ok but not trained. The response to our observation about the cool meal was I'll let them know ! We won't hurry back.

I stopped in for a quick drink after a walk in the nearby countryside. Received a warm welcome from the owner and bar manager. It was great to see the pub reopening, and I encourage others to support their local community pubs. I will definitely be returning soon.

Lovely and friendly people and fantastic food. Fast service too. We didn't book a table and they were so nice about it and fit us in. Sunday lunch Pork Loin was so tasty and great value. Lovely atmosphere and so stylish inside. Definitely coming here again. (the photo of the Lasagne was after my partner had started tucking in

Decor is lovely and quirky, the guy who served us all evening was amazing, knowledgeable about the food, really friendly and attentive. The mains were spot on, chicken burger, jackfruit burger and lasagne were beautiful. The only thing I wouldn't recommend was the Christmas taster which had a dry cake and a gingerbread man who looked like he'd been to Tenerife holiday and forgot suncream (burnt).
