About us

Welcome to The Red Lion, part of The Greedy Gordon Group, an eclectic and friendly collection of luxury pubs and online boutiques located in the heart of Northamptonshire.

We are Richard Gordon and Sonya Freeman – Head Chef & Proprietors – and we can’t wait to welcome you to the first pub and restaurant we opened, The Red Lion. It’s an idyllic traditional village pub based in Cranford (near Kettering) a village steeped in history and the pub has been a mainstay since the 1700s.

Our aim has always been to bring people together with our warm hospitality and our love of delicious food and drink. Our menu is inventive, imaginative and always creative; giving the local pub scene a new and diverse way of eating. We pride ourselves on using the very best local produce for our food and drink and reducing our carbon footprint has been at the forefront of the Red Lion’s success. We use local sheep from Brigstock, wine produced in Brigstock, Birds View Vineyard and wine produced also in a Vineyard locally in Lowick.

We fell in love with the Red Lion because it’s a cosy pub with old-world charm, low ceilings and open fires. You can choose your tipple, grab one of our board games and you’re set for the night! We’re family-friendly and dog-friendly too and have a spacious beer garden. The restaurant’s glass extension gives a contemporary edge and separates the space from the bar for those wanting a more formal (but still friendly) dining experience.

Amazing food with a brilliant atmosphere. Myself and the family thoroughly enjoyed a get together for a Sunday roast. The food was genuinely show stopping. We all had a variety of different meals including the pork belly, roast beef and chicken. The chicken wings for our starter were beautiful and flavourful. Can’t wait to come again next week!

The best pub I have ever been to. The staff is absolutely amazing, the food is perfect, the wine was so lovely! This pub is so cosy and welcoming. I'll definitely come back here. I have to mention octopus and beef burger - what a heaven on earth! The octopus was so tender and tasty, beef burger was the best I ever had. Portions are massive! Definitely worth of visiting.

Some creative, non-traditional items on the menu, which is refreshing. Ambiance was also excellent. Kabobs were great.

Nice pub area. Hubby enjoyed his pint before dinner. Delicious food, nicely presented. Every morsel was yummy! Compliments to the chef! Attentive, friendly staff. Restaurant reservation recommended.

Food is not great but also not bad. Service is great, staff is friendly. It was quite busy when we dine here and lots of noisy customers, not the pub's fault at all🤦🏻‍♀️
