Our meal in the RED Lion was absolutely first rate, (but we are "veggies" who don't seek out traditional roasts). The London Pride in the Red Lion also beats the standard that the other two Marsworth pubs usually hit with their ales. We like the Angler's and the White Lion, but I'm rapidly becoming a convert to the Red Lion. (Good news, because once on or new mooring, it's the easiest to boat to!).Alan Fincherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05818658735421434869noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3713722563357763750.post-85788066882766818782009-11-22T22:34:59.583+00:002009-11-22T22:34:59.583+00:00I think this just proves that on the day, we thoug...I think this just proves that on the day, we thought the White Lion the better of the two and others on different days had different experiences.<br />We did not eat at the Red Lion becaus we wanted a 'Sunday roast',the food may be of top quality if you want a basic menu, which we may well do on another day.<br />Whoever is managing the White Lion, at the moment, has the 'Sunday roast'right but, of course, that is no guarantee it will be the same management/quality next time.

We have probably had the best and worst Sunday lunch of the three at the Anglers retreat (on two separate occasions, I hasten to add) The Red lion is constantly changing management but we have had some very good meals there, probably the best quality overall. The Red Lion is consistent and although the menu is basic it is not too bad as far as bar food goes. How do we know well we used to go to this area most weekends for over three years when we were moored at Cowroast.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3713722563357763750.post-17789987860967914002009-11-22T18:29:42.767+00:002009-11-22T18:29:42.767+00:00The Red and White Lions sound bit of a turn round,...The Red and White Lions sound bit of a turn round, I always use to rate the Red Lion quite highly.<br />The Anglers Retreat always use to be worth a visit.<br />BrianBrian and Diana on NB Harnserhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08569360123827850984noreply@blogger.com
