Ate here in November with my OH. Food was absolutely delicious and good value. Service was excellent and the place is just a warm, friendly place to enjoy a meal. My brother has just got my parents a voucher for here as a Christmas present. Can totally recommend.

Beautiful pub with very traditional decor and a fantastic beer garden out back with a converted shipping container selling pizza as well as their own food inside. The staff were very pleasant and the food was absolutely amazing!! Would definitely recommend to anyone visiting the area.

Beautiful country pub. Roaring fires and the best food we've had on an evening out for as long as I can remember. The last mile or so getting there is a tight country lane and may be awkward if the lane is busy but it is so worth it. Natalie, the landlady was lovely, as was Meghan who waited on us perfectly and a huge thank you to the chefs who cooked our fabulous meal. It was my wife's 64th birthday and she had a card waiting for her signed by all the staff, such a lovely thought. The wine my wife had was lovely with what seemed like generous measures and the smooth bitter was a throwback to when beer was beer. It tasted of hops, was, clean, fresh and an absolute joy to drink. 100% we will be going back and I highly recommend a visit!

After a fantastic tour at the Penderyn distillery, we decided to have lunch at the Red Lion Inn. Our luck put us by the cozy fireplace, and the dishes we ordered were not only visually appealing but also incredibly delicious. This charming, centuries-old country pub is nestled on a quaint country road, offering a warm and inviting atmosphere. The friendly staff served us with a smile, and we savored every bite of our meal, knowing it was made from locally sourced ingredients. The menu featured a variety of drink options to complement the flavorful dishes. While some might find a few menu items a tad on the pricey side, I personally believe that the superior quality of the food, combined with the delightful ambiance, justifies the cost. An excellent choice for those who appreciate good food in a delightful setting.

Really good quality, beautifully presented; and inventive flavour combinations. This is fine dining but affordable - starters about £9; mains £18; dessert around £9 so meal for two with three courses and a coffee is still £70-£100. The 12 hour slow roasted beef and lamb (our mains) both have a very soft texture, quite unlike home cooked. The cucumber pannacotta is definitely worth trying.
