The Red Lion — Restaurant in England

Not a totally bad experience - staff were nice and place was clean BUT lots of oops. Window wouldn't stay open - wedge on order apparently, no TV remote control - on order apparently, bathroom was across the hallway (not much traffic as top floor but...). The very worse was wanting a quick breakfast getaway as had a lot if miles to walk ( on Dalesway LDF).
