Red Lion Bushey - Hertsmere

Had a lovely relaxed evening in the very nice beer garden. Young lady serving was polite and friendly too.

Went to visit friends in Watford and came across this little gem, its a lovely oldie worldie pub with great atmosphere lovely food and drinks and really friendly staff especially the manager dawn .will def be back .

Unbelievable! This was the worst customer experience I've ever had! The staff member with the glasses was incredibly rude; we honestly thought we were in one of those gimmick pubs where employees are paid to treat customers poorly. We were visiting a friend who lives nearby and usually goes to the King Stag, but since they don’t show football, we decided to go to The Lion to catch the game. However, the woman with the large glasses made us feel so unwelcome, as if we were disrupting her evening. As someone who works in pubs in North London and a friend who previously managed wine bars in Manchester, we've never experienced such hostility from staff who are supposed to provide hospitality. I’ll never go back again!

We visited on Sunday for a couple of drinks. Encountered a relaxing environment and a warm and efficient welcome. Decided to order a Sunday Roast ; what a delicious meal, fantastic service and great value. The roast beef was well cooked, with a good selection of vegetables. Obviously, a great team, keep up the good work. I’m definitely going back again as the atmosphere is really nice and the staff made me feel very welcome!

I had a fantastic meal with friends and family. The cozy, dog-friendly atmosphere, complete with a fireplace, made it even more enjoyable. Lucy was delightful and incredibly accommodating; she really made our experience special. Evie was just as charming! The food was delicious, and we polished off every last bite. Lucy assisted us with our selections and when I was surprised to see that no service charge had been added to the bill, she encouraged me to write a review instead. So here I am sharing my experience! Wishing everyone a wonderful Christmas!
