The Poulson Room

Please see the menus below:
The Red Lion Pub

Welcoming families and even dogs, the Red Lion pub opens daily from 11.00am to 4.00pm (5.00pm in the main season and weekends). To help keep everyone safe, please follow the directional signs and take a seat after ordering.
With plentiful outdoor seating, it is the perfect venue to enjoy the period street and do a touch of tram spotting.
Please note that our security measures include the fact that we may randomly request to search your bags on entrance.
