Warm and cosy pub located in the heart of Hooe. Lovely décor and some nice touches with names being placed on chalkboards for reserved tables. Visited here with a friend and we had been looking forward to visiting. We both opted for the cod and chips. The chips were absolutely divine but the fish was awful. Probably the worst I have ever had and I have eaten fish and chips countless times. The fish itself was slimy, not meaty like you would expect with a decent bit of cod. The batter was also soggy and just did not taste right. It was the same for both of us and only managed a mouthful each. When asked by the member of staff how our meal was, we replied stating how amazing the chips were but how poor the fish was. She offered to replace the fish which was nice of her and we agreed. However, a couple of minutes later we were then confronted by who I am assuming is the manager / landlord who then got quite abrupt with us from behind the bar saying "that is how we do our fish, so there's nothing we can do about it". He then continued to make it very awkward for us by essentially announcing to the whole pub the issue and pointing to the tables who had also ordered the fish and how no-one else had complained... That is not the way to handle a genuine complaint. Made to feel as if we were just being awkward. We both then felt very uncomfortable and just wanted to leave. The manager did then offer us a different main as they were unable to make the fish as we had expected. The burger was nice although it would have been nice to have been offered sauces. We would have asked but did not want another pub announcement. I eat out at a lot at restaurants and almost always have a dessert and further drinks. Very rarely have any issue with the food and if I do, the problem is rectified without fuss. Due to the situation we left after finishing our main and paying. The situation could have been dealt with a lot better. A simple replacement of the main without the embarrassment would have sufficed.
Recommended to me by a friend...What a gem place. Lovely atmosphere, the staff are attentive without being over bearing. The fire was roaring and the food OUTSTANDING. The flavours of each ingredient were identifiable and were cooked to perfection 5*
Lovely looking pub, however I have never been into a pub and been refused to have a drink even if the restaurant was full. Absolutely shocking that I couldn’t even stand with a pint, or even drink outside on the benches. Simply ridiculous.
Absolutely delicious dinner. Staff were very welcoming. Cozy inviting pub, don’t hesitate!
Went for Sunday lunch, superb food and very attentive staff, can't wait to revisit
Lovely country pub with great homemade food, booking is essential as it has taken us a few times to get a table, but the wait was worth while.
Freshly cook food with good local ales.
Most probably the best fish and chips I have had in years. Pub looks a bit dark inside but service and food quality was very good. Sensible prices and dog friendly too.
Great food, atmosphere, family dining, limited parking though, highly recommend Sunday lunch, call and pre book to avoid disappointment!! You're going to really enjoy your visit! Well done to the owners and hospitality team, you'll feel welcome from welcome to leaving, Great selection of beers,wines and spirits
We saw a roadside board on the A259 advertising The Red Lion and called on the off chance to book Sunday lunch. Luckily they could fit us in and what a treat it was. We both opted for the roast beef and it was an excellent, tender topside joint with a wide range of vegetables, a super crispy Yorkshire Pud and tasty gravy, all served piping hot. Nothing was left on the plate but I still had room for apple crumble and custard, which again was delicious. The whole bill for 2 including drinks was great value at just under £50 but a well deserved tip for super service pushed it over!
