What sierraromeobravo likes about The Red Lion:
Great Pub! We went here at the end of July 2020 and it was great. It was well laid out for social distancing due to Covid and had a large outside seating area. They had live music that was brilliant and the food was tasty with fast service. Overall great pub! View all feedback. What Indiaclaypots doesn't like about The Red Lion:
I had an unfortunate experience at a restaurant recently. I suggested we have a family lunch there, but unfortunately, they were not prepared. After waiting for an hour, we were informed that they had run out of cooked rice for one of our dishes and asked if we were willing to wait an additional 20 minutes for more to be made. Hungry and frustrated, we ended up ordering fries which did not complement the dish at all.... View all feedback.

The pub is charming with a large outdoor area, delicious BBQ food, and a talented singer who provided excellent entertainment during our visit.

This local pub is not worth reviewing, as it is overpriced and expensive. The prices are more in line with those found in the West End, but you can find cheaper...

The Red Lion restaurant has received mixed reviews from customers. While some diners expressed disappointment with slow service, overcooked food, and high prices, others praised the delicious Sunday roast, friendly staff, and cozy environment. The wine selection was highlighted as a key factor in providing a satisfying dining experience. Overall, The Red Lion seems to have areas that could be improved upon to ensure consistent quality for all guests. A particular mention was made of the attentive staff, especially Billie and Joe, who went out of their way to make each visit memorable. The restaurant's popularity suggests that it may be worth a visit to judge for yourself.
