The Red Lion Hinxton

Booked in advance as it gets busy especially on Sundays. Food very good offers nice menu. The staff very professional and attentive to our needs. Can be expensive with the combination of food and drink. Will call again as it has a nice setting.

Went in for a drink and food after a countryside walk. It is a large pub with several bars and a big restaurant area. The food was very good and there is an excellent range of beers on offer. Surroundings, food and service all top notch, couldn't wish for more from a meal out

Arrived in fantastic weather for an overnight stay whilst visiting the Imperial War museum. Nice reception cold glass in the garden . Shown to our clean room in the garden . Even got a visit from the friendly cat . £30 taxi ride into Cambridge. Upon returning at 9 pm on a Sat night , The pub ( showing football ) was totally deserted. We were the only customers!!! Nice place £28 for a bottle of wine expensive. No tea or coffee in the rooms . Breakfast very average. We would stop again but locals need to use it or lose it !

What a lovely welcome. Following a long drive we fancied a drink before checking in to The Holiday Inn next door. The gentleman at the bar was very jolly and chatty and after a bit of indecision from us he gave us time to sit at a table where we decided to eat. The food was great and all staff bent over backwards to be polite and ensure we were comfortable. Sadly we didn’t stay but will be back to try out the rooms. We stayed once before under old management but it’s clear to see positive improvements being carried out. Thank you.

Really lovely venue. Rooms are surprisingly large, look smaller on the outside. Bed was comfortable. The pub had loads of character. The staff were really friendly too.

The accommodation was really very nice, clean and comfortable. My only comment was the breakfast first morning ok but the second morning they had run out if 2 of the cereal choices and also Hash browns. The staff were lovely but I must say I was disappointed that morning as we were leaving to go home and we were unable to enjoy the breakfast that should have been available.

Good, spacious and clean rooms, comfy beds. Ceiling lights were either one third on, fully on, or flashing continuously (Room 6, reported back to the staff). Food was generally good but the service both at dinner and breakfast was INCREDIBLY slow to the point of annoyance. Additional staff are needed front and back of house. And what pickled red cabbage is doing in a Thai green curry I have no idea… certainly different.

We were looking forward to some rare roast beef for Sunday lunch. Unfortunately, it was so rare it never arrived at our table! At 1.30pm we were informed that there had been a rush on rare beef and only beef well done was available. Disappointed, we opted instead for lamb - so long as it was cooked rare. What we got was medium to well done lamb. Doubly disappointing. Good service, lovely veg but poorly organised and executed.

Comfortable and quiet room, great breakfast and a delicious dinner. What more could you want. Thanks to Sam for looking after us so well. We will definitely be back. Apparently this review has to be 200 characters long so I will definitely recommend the pork belly….made it!
