“The Red Lion Eaton struck me as a proper, welcoming pub with rooms, not the other way around. Its proximity to the university makes it incredibly convenient, but the real draw is the staff's genuine friendliness and the surprisingly excellent food. I'd happily return simply for the relaxed atmosphere and the well-poured pint.”
