Red Lion, Gatwick Airportback to pub details please note - reviews on this site are purely the opinion of site visitors, so don't take them too seriously.
The usual food offering although at airport prices. A good pint of Pedigree to wash my lunch down. Very fast and efficient service.

Air side North Terminal Wetherspoons that is by far the best place for a beer while your awaiting your flight.
My Sunday afternoon visit coincided with a very busy airport day and i have to say the staff coped very well, the queue was dealt with very quickly.
A choice of 6 ales across the pumps had me deciding on an American beer brewed in conjunction with Adnams, 5% and just £3.25 it was the perfect tonic for my delayed flight.
Very decent 'spoons, doesn't seem as expensive as the air side offering at the South Terminal.
Good quick service, decent choice of ales, prime location what is there to dislike?

I was hoping to try a pint or two of the American ales during the recent beer festival but unbelievably they had completely run out of all cask ale! A very sad state of affairs.

Doing a brisk trade in breakfasts while I was there recently, this isn't a bad place in which to sip a pint and watch the world go by from. I just had coffee, it being early morning, but I was amazed by how many were tucking into pints of beer with their breakfasts.

Really not too bad, with some reasonable views over the airport if that's your kind of thing...

Airport 6am waiting for a flight greatness! Wouldnt step foot in there if it was in the street though :P
|
Its just what you'd expect to find airside at an airport, full of transients in varying stages of sobriety waiting for their flights,the beer, well Guinness was spot on, the Lager was ok, 2.99/pint which I guess is about the norm for airport bars..Very very smokey though, 80% of the place was taken up by smokers and there seemed sadly to be no extractors on.. and the other 25%(!) non smoking was seperated from them by a rope barrier!!That'll work then.
