Ye Olde Red Lion in Boston

Lovely place - amazing food and friendly staff. We visit every few months and it never disappoints!

Always enjoy eating at this fine pub. Beautifully prepared food with some interesting twists on staple favourites. Just had the pleasure of a magnificent Sunday lunch....I completely cleaned my plate. Many thanks we'll be back.

**This review has been deleted on google** We had a booking for 12:30pm and arrived early at 12pm. The restaurant was empty but for a handful of diners. The waitress placed us on the worst table for two in the pub. She asked if this table was ok. I said no can we be moved to the table on the other side of the partition wall which was empty. She said no because someone has asked for the table when booking. However there was no reserved table sign on the table. The other tables of two which were better located were all empty as well. I am Indian so did she display unconscious racism by placing us on the worst table. When all the other tables for two were empty. I showed my disappointment in her placing us at this table when the restaurant was empty. She came back be placed us on another table for two which was on the other side of the partition. After when other white customers for a table of 2 came into the restaurant, they were not placed on the bad table which we were placed on. Even two old white ladies who were there before us weren’t seated at this bad table which is in a pathway to the other tables. They had arrived before us. I would understand if the pub was busy and then given this bad table. But to offer the bad table to the brown customer is bad practice. I think it’s unfair to be treated this way because of their unconscious racism. This did ruin the meal for me. This was our first time in Bicker. We were on our way to Sandringham for the Robbie Williams concert.

Excellent meal here last night! The service was impeccable!! The staff were so friendly, welcoming, informative about the menu, accommodating and nice and chatty. The food was absolutely delicious and the cocktails outstanding! Will definitely come again next time I visit my Mum! Many thanks to them for a lovely evening!

Excellent food, pleasant & helpful staff, reasonably priced! Lovely atmosphere. Definitely want to eat here again! We’ve now been here a few times & the food is always excellent, we’ve had everything from Christmas Dinner to BBQ food & it is amazing every time! They now have an American Smoker & have been smoking their own sausages for their BBQ today! Those sausages are the best sausages I have ever tasted & even my 1 year old LOVES their food! Staff are so lovely, friendly & very professional. They take pride in their work & it shows! Chef Marcus has a tremendous gift for providing a unique & amazing culinary experience from presentation down to flavour! They have adapted amazingly well to Covid restrictions & feel very safe eating here with my 1 year old! Thank you all for your continued hard work & sticking out the pandemic!
