Once again what a load of rubish spoken on this board. I spoke to Steve about the issue after i read it on here about Peter the man with the stick. He said nothing has changed and he is still barred from swinging his stick anywhere near the Red Lion or taking it inside. He also said the reason this was brought up by Eamon because he was barred for attacking a customer outside the Red lion a couple of weeks ago. The Red lion looks busier than we have seen for many years now and all the locals i speak to are back and v happy. I went there on Monday evening with my husband and it was v busy in the garden with many old faces and the restaurant was the same. we had to wait for a table so we could eat from the 2 for �12 menu which we feel is great value and eat from it at leat once a week. great to have the old Red lion back !!

This site has become really petty and rediculous and should be looked at by bite. Anybody can see reading some of the posts that many are the same people and they just do not ring true. As i have said before my husband i go to the red lion a lot and really enjoy the atmosphere and lovely service the staff provide.
I hate to see such a nice establishment spoken about in this way when i can see it is absolute rubbish and anybody can see the staff have worked v hard to get it back on track.
Before the new managment took over i could understand some of the remarks but not now. We gave them another chance as well as many other Wendovians and we are happy we did and will keep on having enjoyable evenings there.

My Husband and myself started going back in the red lion after hearing about the new managment and the much inproved food and service. We were very surprised to see it was so much cleaner and the staff very attentive and the managment could not do enough for us. We now go in two or three times a week and have loved the new specials and the much improved food. I must say having been told about this site by a friend i find it hard to believe that anybody would say such things as everybody seems so nice and welcoming. It looks to me and maybe others that the same person has a vendeta against the red lion and posts under different aliases. Maybe another licensees worried about the much improved red lion and is taking trade. Many long term Wendover residents welcome having the red lion back as the hub of the comunity. Thank you Martin

The Red Lion Hotel, Wendover
This site has become a shambles and has been for a few years now. I see nothing on here that resembles the Red Lion in any way whatsoever. If any of you decided to frequent the red lion on a Friday evening you would see a thriving buisiness with many and i mean many regular customers. We popped around the Wendover bars Last Friday and the only bar with a considerable number of customers was the Red Lion. The King and Queen had one person in at 8.30pm and Peter said nobody else had been in since 7pm. White Swan was the same and the shoulder of mutton had a few dinners but nobody at the bar. We got to The LIon at 9.30 and there must have been well over 100 people and the restaurant looked pretty full as well. Most of the customers were regulars i have known over the last 10 years and there was a great atmosphere. Maybe if some of you took your blimkers off and actualy went to the Lion you would realise how wrong you all are.
