The Red Lion is a family run free house,
set in the beautiful Vale of Belvoir, on the A606 Melton Mowbray to Nottingham Road.
Formerly an old coaching Inn, its features include a separate Restaurant, Lounge Bar,
Saloon Bar, and Conservatory. Outside there is an enclosed Beer
Garden (with free roaming rabbits), Petanque pitch (French Bowls), plus Miniature Ponies,
Goats, Guinea Pigs etc., to amuse both adults and children alike. Disabled access can best
be described as good as the Pub is virtually all on one level, with wide doorways
throughout. Toilet cubicles are also large by modern standards. Beers tend to be BASS, but
they serve Highgate Dark and a guest ale. They have a 40-50 seat restaurant with
additional space available in the adjoining lounge. This makes an ideal venue for events
such as club presentation dinners, Weddings, Anniveraries, Birthdays, Christmas Parties,
Business Dinners etc. Menus include Soup, Fruit Juice, Roast Beef, Pork and Turkey, plus
vegetables, potatoes and traditional accompaniments, choice of Homemade Sweets (usually 6
- 10 different dishes). Vegetarians can be catered for by prior arrangement. The Red Lion
also runs games evenings; take your choice from Skittles, Petanque (outdoor but floodlit),
Pool, Darts, Dominoes, Cards or Shut the Box. They offer an inexpensive range of food to
go with them - Cottage Pie, Lasagne, Mushy Peas and Chips - for £2.95 per person (30 + @
£2.75 each) or a 'Tramps Supper Skittles Evenings' - Bangers, Beans and Mash for £2.50
per person (30 + @ £2.25 each). Food Served Tuesday to Saturday, lunch: 11.30 - 2.00,
evening meals: 7.00 - 10.00, Sunday Lunch: 12.00 - 2.30. Accommodation available.

Notes: |
Red Lion Nether Broughton
Leicestershire is closed for refurbishment August 2002. (3/8/02) |
| |
The Red
Lion has been taken over by the Fat Cat Cafe Bars group. They usually have
real ale on but not very imaginative choices (BASS, Pedigree). (1/9/02)) |
| |
Now fully
refurbished and renamed The Red House. Food and accommodation are not cheap
although excellent quality. More of a posh eating house than a pub although
you can buy Belvoir Bitter which they seem to keep very well. (22/12/03) |
