On the market square, the Red Lion has had a varied history. It was opened by Lacons and the wall outside still retains its plaque, then it became a Portuguese restaurant, before becoming a Wetherspoon establishment. The decor features information about local history and attractions. There is often a dark ale on the bar. The pub has a variety of eating and drinking areas plus an outdoor space.
