user reviews of the Red Lion, Finchingfield

please note - reviews on this site are purely the opinion of site visitors, so don't take them too seriously.

Amazed that since I last reviewed this pub 2 years ago, only one other member has added a review! When we visited with friends recently, the pub hadn't changed at all and it's still a cosy and welcoming place. The beer selection is not fantastic, but the food is very good pub style food and served with a smile. However, the revamped Fox Inn seems to be the place to be, so pubs like this need to be on their guard.

Finally we found a pub that was open in the area, despite it being Valentine's Day evening! The Red Lion has a very pleasant unspoiled interior with the log fire roaring in the corner. The bar staff and the local clientele were all friendly. The beer range was simple - Greene King IPA and Abbot Ale and it was a shame they did not serve food on a Sunday evening when all other pubs and restaurants nearby were shut.

We hadn't been here for a few years, and since last time we were here it'seems to have changed hands. The beer is Essex and East Anglian and well kept. The food was pub style rather than gastro, but the home made lasagne I had was both generous and delicious and worth the �9.25. My wife's chicken and ham pie was, i'm reliably informed, also delicious. The decor was cosy with a log fire to the right of the entrance. The landlord is as gay and camp as they come, but very friendly and entertaining and the locals, some well spoken and some not so well spoken, seem to have a real rapport with him. Will visit again when in the area.

Very welcoming, unpretentious good old fashioned pub, food is good but a bit pricey.

Great village pub, up the hill by the church, and the best in Finchingfield. Frank, the landlord, is a very friendly chap, and is proud of the beer he keeps. I'm more of a cider person (Strongbow on tap), but beer drinking friends are always pleased here. There's an ever changing menu, and the portions are generous. A garden to the rear to soak up the summer rays - what more do you need?
