Food

What’s it all about (Alfie?)

Local, seasonal produce, cooked simply. That’s the mission statement.

Lot’s of people may make that claim but few really get stuck in. We are really passionate about our food- We go direct to the farmers front gate for mutton & pigs, whilst collecting our organically grown Shitake mushrooms from a local Community Supported Association some two miles away. Practicality dictates that not all our foods can come directly from the farms, but we work closely with Farmers Fayre a local ‘gaggle’ of farmers which ensures that much of our meat really is from a 30 mile radius. Our food is non pretentious and unfussy but cooked honestly and without cutting corners- meaning that you can have a classic pub meal that will be a sensible size and wont be stacked up like a tower and it absotively posolutely wont be drizzled on. (unless it’s raining)

Recent menus can be found under RECENT MENUS (oddly) or you can click Just show me what I can eat, dammit!!

Have a look in the recent menus section – that’ll give you an idea and as far as the gluten free stuff is concerned we’ll do whatever we can to make sure your wife is a happy bunny!

Greetings, can you help ?. Its my Mums 60th birthday and i have been looking at local country pubs to host a small gathering of about 8 people on Saturday the 22nd of October and was wondering what type of food will be on offer, my wife cannot eat wheat or gluten do you offer this type of food

Sam September 23, 2011 at 11:10 pm

Yes of course- have a look at a recent menu in the food bit!

Hi, are you planning any special evenings or menu’s for Burn’s Night?

Sam November 18, 2010 at 5:39 pm

Hi there,
We dont do a childrens menu but yes we do half portions of alot of the dishes- theres usually homemade fishfingers & sausages available as well!
For more details have a look at the FAQ’s, under categories on the homepage (http://redlionhunningham.co.uk/350/)
Sundays are notoriously busy days so booking is advisable but not always necessary!
cheers

Hi do you do either a kids menu or smaller portions for children and if three people were to come on a Sunday would we need to book.

Thanks

Hi there,
It’s not the kind of thing we do normally but it depends when youre thinking- perhaps give me a buzz and we’ll discuss ( please leave it until after the beer festival)
cheers

Hi Sam

I was wondering if it’s possible to put a marquee in the garden and organize a carvery/hog roast for a wedding. 100 people!!!It’s such a lovely place. Best Regards Jonna

I love this pub – we live in rugby & it’s our new favourite place to eat. You never fail to please, we’ve booked it for birthdays, Mother’s Day and I’m even booking it for my pre-wedding girlie meal! The fires, atmosphere, beers and especially the food all make this one of the nicest places to spend an evening!

Sam March 24, 2010 at 11:30 am

I wont be, but my good lady, Liz, will be- she’s easier on the eye than I…

Ralph Buckland March 24, 2010 at 10:13 am

I can do better than that. Will visit tonight and make myself known to you, if you’re about.

Cheers,

Ralph

Sam March 23, 2010 at 3:37 pm

Anything is possible- Give me a ring at the pub.

Ralph Buckland March 23, 2010 at 3:29 pm

Can you do a table of 20? It will be one evening in the week perhaps a Thursday. Staff outing.

Thanks

Sam March 9, 2010 at 4:14 pm

but of course- just specify when you order…

Probert March 8, 2010 at 9:10 pm

hi,

we have booked a table for four on mothers day, we were just wondering about the roast lamb you serve, if we could not have it pink and just have it well cooked? thank you

Sam February 10, 2010 at 1:01 pm

Yes! we have a table by a fire that easily seats 12

Ralph Buckland February 10, 2010 at 11:51 am

Is it possible for you to do a large group (12) on one table?

Sam February 9, 2010 at 1:30 pm

Hi there- yes it’s a very good idea to book- and there won’t be anything too twee on the menu!!
Regards

Thinking of doing a looal walk to enjoy the lovely warwickshire countryside on the 14th Feb and then having a bite to eat afterwards in your place. Would I need to book as its valentines day ? Also will there be any changes to the menu for the same reason ?

Thanks

Sue February 3, 2010 at 8:13 pm

Ate here in December & it was great.Loads of choice. Lovely relaxed feeling & nobody rushing you to go.
Coming back in February..

Hi there,
the menu changes daily- I update the website when I have a chance (lazy, I know!) there’s pasta already on there and there’s always Veggie fish & chips- I’ll put another menu on there when I get a chance!!
Cheers
Sam

JK January 23, 2010 at 1:27 pm

Hi, Is this still the current menu or has it changed? Also its a bit light on vegetarian provision can you put something veggie on there for non fish eating veggies, perhaps pasta of some kind?

Thanks

Sam January 18, 2010 at 10:48 pm

No problem whatsoever!!

Is it possible to make provision for people who enjoy the Red Lion & would like to sample your Sunday roasts but prefer their meat to be well done?
I’m thinking of getting a group together on Sunday, 28th February.
