Good food and choice.
My wife and I have eaten there twice now, and enjoyed both the food and the experience. Spacious environment and friendly staff.

PC Gone Mad
We have been to the Red Lion many times before and will go again.
Normally everything is fine, but yesterday they let themselves down. My Kleftico came with chunky chips, but in my opinion 5 small chunky chips, not even a whole potato, that barely half filled the little bowl they came in, doesn't constitute a portion!
I was told I could have asked for more - I shouldn't have to.
Whoever is responsible for portion control needs to sort this.
Don't know why it's listed here as CO when it's the Red Lion, Water End, Hemel Hempsted
