Old Red Lion in Sheffield

Fabulous place , we regularly go and visit

Absolutely fantastic food and a good price. All home made was extremely tasty 😋

Just called in after our dog walk . Received a lovely warm welcome form the landlady and her staff .Food was really nice and very reasonably priced .Will definitely call again. Thanks Old Red Lion

A first time visit, we were very impressed with the menu, something for everyone! We were advised of a wait for food but this was less than expected. Atmosphere was lovely and the manager went out of his way to chat and check everything was OK for us. Will definitely be back soon. When we left, in the dark we discovered that my car had a flat tyre arrghhh, 3 ladies stranded and in need of help! A lovely young man who was a customer who happened to be outside, came to our rescue, for which we are so grateful.

First visit for us, and we will be back. Lovely food (excellent quality, great flavours, careful presentation and large portions). It was quite busy with a couple of birthday parties ongoing, but the kitchen coped admirably. Staff were pleasant and attentive. Couldn’t ask for more.

Visiting from the US. The liver and onions was to die for.

Been coming here years and it is always welcoming. Love the bingo and quiz.....and free chips😋

good food good selection lovely home made chips real log fire comfy welcoming can also take my yorkie in pub area .

Well where do I start outside problems parking and people arguing about locals and such inside well wasn't too busy but we got a place to eat Both chose the Sunday roast one with Beef one with Turkey £15.99 and £1.50 extra for Cauliflower Cheese🙄 Fuming as the server brining or lunch decided to stop and play with a dog on the way to the bar to collect our food no hand washing between the 2 events 😡 g Good job we paid the extortionate £1.50 as the Lunch entails 2 thin slices of meat on the Beef and Turkey one slice plus Scraps trying to make 2 slices add onto the plate one Yorkshire pudding,1 Carrot, 1 Parsnip,1 thin Stem of brocoli,1 Roast potato ,1 Small Spoon of Mash Potato and Bit of Awful Red Cabbge and a slice of Stuffing and incoming 2 bowls with one Cauliflower Floret in each with cheese sauce on it Now had this being a Mitchelin Star Restaurant you'd probably expect little food and high prices But this is Yorkshire local pub (Zero on the Michelin score) In an area where Quality and Quantity and price point is much much better catered for in the local area I'm just struggling to see and compare to other places how one has the audacity to charge so much to feed customers so little in fact I'll add a photo of a place that is £4 less per head and much better Quality Service and environment This will as the local gents who were sat by us said be there own undoing greedy was the words used by them and I can only agree with them based on our experience today vast difference in food quality and quantity and prices a week apart less that 4 miles apart from each other Very Disappointed with the Old Red Lion Grenoside Sheffield

Top food , top staff & amazing food , well worth a visit for food or just drinks

This is a good pub with good food, but they appear to turn a blind eye to people vaping.This puts me off my food and is not ideal

Called in today with family,one of whom was my 4 Yr old grandson for a meal for my Birthday.The Food was Lovely,We All Enjoyed it. The Staff were Really friendly and were great with my grandson. Would Highly recommend and will Definitely be calling again.

Great Staff & service as always FAB food & great selection of drinks too Thanks 😊

Booked for new years day. The food is 10/10, as always.

Outstanding food , exceeding expectations , been lots of times would always come back and would definitely recommend to try as somewhere new

Went with friends for Christmas treat of various menu choices. The service we received was second to none and the food was delicious and plentiful. Will definitely be going again.

4 of us had Christmas lunch actually on Christmas Day and it was absolutely amazing. The food was outstanding and the staff were so friendly and welcoming, nothing was too much trouble. The time in between courses was just right, it wasn’t rushed which gave us chance to chat and make room for the next course! It’s something we haven’t experienced before and are already looking forward to next year! Thank you to David for his efficiency in organising and to his lovely team, you are a credit to the business

We are local to this well known pub and due to its convenience enjoy going here at Christmas and other occasions. Ok so its not the cheapest place around especially for drinks but the quality and portion size of food makes up for that. On this particular occasion we found the starters really good. We had a slight problem with one of the main courses but due to the prompt and switched on David who runs the place this was soon resolved to our satisfaction. Negatives: Drinks prices very high Positives: Food and portion sizes very good. Staff very attentive and excellent customer service.

Dreadful meal! It took an hour to arrive despite pre-booking and my veg was raw. The carrot skin still had the white coating of an old raw carrot 🫣

We have been going to this place for years but on this occasion we went for Christmas Fabre,very poor for the money,food barely warm,roast potato and stuffing I think was frozen even though when I complained I was told they don’t do frozen. Drinks really overpriced,will not be going again

Would definitely recommend! Food was exceptionally good and so was the service

Wanted to say a huge thankyou to the gent that served me and my partner today I had come for the fajitas because they are amazing but they had been taken off the menu throughout the Christmas period, we asked if they were still available but they sadly were not. However he went into the kitchen to ask the staff if they could do this for me and they did!! Honestly made my day I had been looking forward to them all week, all the staff were so lovely and kind. Thankyou so much

Had Christmas afternoon tea, service was friendly and prompt. Food was fresh and tasty, nice sandwiches, pigs in blankets and mini roast potatoes. Plentiful supply of cakes and unlimited tea or coffee. Very good value, enjoyed the experience.

Great Sunday Lunch with excellent service, friendly staff throughout

Just been for Christmas Dinner and everything was absolutely spot on. Amazing food, great staff, great beer and the overall package was wonderful, well done guys.

Nice place for a drink. But £12.10 for 2 pints is crazy lol

Booked on for the christmas afternoon tea. Lovely food. The homemade small roasted potatoes and pigs in blankets were delicious. Unlimited hot drinks. Service was spot on and fast. The atmosphere was lovely, cosy and christmasy. Lovely log lit fire keeping us warm xxx

Even though it was our first visit We were made to feel very welcome as soon as we walked through the door, the food and service was excellent and the atmosphere was very festive with the carol singing

Slow service meant I was 1 minute late to the lunch deal so the price doubled. I guess there needs to be a cutoff but seems like cutting off your nose to spite your face (losing a sale and then because i wasn't eating the group left early with no desert). The pub is otherwise okay, it is chain-quality food with mediocre service (often orders are wrong/missing) but the decor is nice.

Nice atmosphere, lovely friendly staff and great food.

Recommend by friends. Very friendly, welcoming and helpful staff. Lovely food, and topped up with a carol concert with all the locals and violinists.

We ate here for the first time tonight and would the service and the food to be excellent! As an added bonus the local choir were performing a carol concert!

Great country atmosphere. Lots of conversation to go with the great good. Service was excellent from the friendly staff. Going back again soon. Great to see well behaved pooches in there too.

Went for my birthday Friday great place friendly staff notthing was to much highly recommend will go again

La familia se encontró con York 5 de nosotros. La mejor cena de domingo que hemos tenido por una milla! Servicio excelente, calidad excelente, limpieza excelente y ambiente excelente. No puedo culpar de que definitivamente volverá. No necesitas cambiar nada, solo continúa con lo que estás haciendo. ¡Gracias!

Recently visited for a 40th birthday meal and couldn’t fault it! It was quite busy as it was quiz night but all the staff were really good and they was no long waits for food or drink. David was especially good with us, he was the one who took the booking and while we were there he was very attentive with our group and really looked after us. Everyone commented on how good the food was and will definitely be going again. Not sure if the red lion read their reviews, but if you do thanks for a really good night

Recientemente visitada para una comida de 40 años y no podía fallar! Estaba bastante ocupado, ya que era noche de preguntas, pero todo el personal era muy bueno y no había largas esperas para la comida o bebida. David fue especialmente bueno con nosotros, él fue el que tomó la reserva y mientras estuvimos allí fue muy atento con nuestro grupo y realmente nos cuidó. Todo el mundo comentó lo buena que era la comida y sin duda va a ir de nuevo. No estoy seguro de si el león rojo leyó sus comentarios, pero si lo hace gracias por una noche realmente buena!

Qué gran visita - gran lugar, gran servicio, gran personal, gran comida y bebida. Todo el equipo es muy amable, atento y cálido. Fuimos recibidos por Daisy que nos mostró a nuestra mesa, rápidamente tomó nuestro pedido de bebidas y rápidamente los trajo a nuestra mesa. ¡Ella era un mérito para el equipo! Muy amable y atento. Luego, Liam, que tomó nuestro pedido de comida, era amable, muy experimentado y súper entusiasta con las comidas más nuevas en el menú. Recomendó un montón de opciones y simplemente tuvimos la sensación de que todo el equipo realmente disfrutó de su trabajo. La comida era excelente, el vino era delicioso y todo estaba a un precio tan razonable. Merece la pena visitarlo. Volveremos muy pronto. El equipo sabe exactamente lo que se necesita para ofrecer un gran servicio y comida de calidad. Wow!

Coasy pub with nice beer selection and nice pub food, very dog friendly

Great food great atmosphere great place

Tonight the service was very very slow

Lovely food, with a gluten free dish being individually prepared for me. I had the fish pie which was awesome and huge, and my partner went for burger and chips. We really enjoyed the food, the service was friendly and efficient and a great atmosphere.

Went on a quiet Tuesday Tea time. The menu is fantastic with something for everyone. Service top class and the food was great. Great selection of Beers, Ciders and lagers. No complaints.

A great pub, this isn't a super large chain and the character and staff attitude really demonstrate what the big chains can't replicate.

I went with my Brother & My Daughter, & my Grandson... To Celebrate my Daughter's 40th Birthday... I did my booking With Liam the Manager by telephone 📞 for 13-30pm... But at Last minute Something Crop up... So I had to make an alternative booking time.. For 14-30pm... It Wasn't a problem Liam Said.... The Staff Were very helpful has I need to put up some balloons & Banners... With my Grandson... We had a three Course meal. Which I might add Was Exclent & Very delicious...... & the Service Was 2nd to none.... Phil Davies....

Nice looking pub, ok food but no customer service from the guy at the bar who served our drinks and brought out our food - rude in his manner, no explaination as to which drinks we had order - they looked the same, sat waiting for cutley because we wasnt aware we had to collect our own or where to collect it from - its just the finer points in customer service that make the experience different and should be taught as standard.

We have just had an excellent family meal at the Old Red Lion in Grenoside. David the owner was attentive, friendly and polite. All the meals served were well cooked and good value for money. Would highly recommend the salt and pepper cod. We will definitely be revisiting in the next couple of weeks.

Been dining here for several years,always great quality food and friendly staff,highly recommend. Reasonable prices and a nice relaxing atmosphere.

Very good food friendly staff they looked after us very well

Ordered 2 steak meals to be cooked medium rare came medium well done ! Chips were under cooked ! This is where the problems started David stated he was the owner ! Changed meals still not right steaks were blue , and David was not happy to take criticism got very aggressive told would take the meals off our bill as he wasn’t trowing any more steaks at us !!! His words which I said were very rude , then proceeded to give us our bill , still drinking our drinks , asked if he wanted us to leave he said no ! Then why bring the bill , my opinion which I wasn’t entitled to have after all I’m just a customer wasn’t welcome and was perceived as we were looking for a free meal ! Which we didn’t eat , I’m sure I’d have chosen somewhere better than a pub , Iv never had this problem there before but then Iv never encountered David the owner tip to David leave front of house to your staff , and if as you you’ve been there 11 year and never encountered this before I’m going to say your not telling the truth , as a business owner I understand you can’t please everybody. ITS how you deal with it and David was aggressive and wouldn’t let me speak and was extremely confrontational Very disappointed

Fabulous service/food as always. Family of 9 for my sons 17th birthday. Very attentive, staff couldn't do enough for us. Really good value with the burger night. Big portions. Quality burgers, my son had a lovely fillet steak. Will return and have done several times. Keep it up.

Went in a group for a celebration meal it was the quiz night as well so pub very busy . Only one lad on the bar so large queue for drinks . Should have had at least 2 on the bar . Menu says home made chips with all meals but they didn’t seem like home made tasteless not nice . How can a medium lenonade cost more than a pint of lager ? £3.50 for a medium lemonade is ridiculous. Food prices far too expensive for the standard they serve up . Would never go back .

Lovely food and friendly helpful staff.

We went to celebrate my grandsons 3rd birthday and were pleasantly surprised. Lovely place, gorgeous food, great atmosphere and nothing was too much trouble for the very attentive staff. We thoroughly enjoyed it, I will definitely be going again and highly recommend it.

The old Red Lion pub was really nice. Food is really good. The staff are very friendly. They do a really good job. It's a really nice place to be very friendly?

great atmosphere, had a carvery to celebrate 🍾 our wedding anniversary

Service exceptional especially served by lynsey food excellent will be calling again and again surf the wave 10out of 10 call to the red lion u won't be disappointed

Hit & miss here & poor service, fish ok,chips a bit stale

A chance visit on the way through Grenoside. Pleased to find the ‘pub favourites’ on offer at two for £26, and delighted to find there was an offer on the offer! Liver and mash a real taste of times gone by for me, lovely food. Good beers available as well, and the service could not have been more welcoming. Next visit will be by design not by accident.

Early in the evening but nice atmosphere not too busy staff very attentive the food was a treat and reasonably priced too

Excellent going back this Thursday with family. Would recommend it to anyone

Book a table for 7 pm took order 715 food arrived 815 I had chicken gogens far to much batter chicken over cooked and I think overpriced nothing special about the food. Had pint of coors larger charged £5.60 a pint town prices not village prices hundred yards down the road coors larger £3.50 a pint. Told by local people expense pub.

Had a lovely meal with 21 of us, and they had catered us on a special occasion. Service was really good. Really enjoyed it

Lovely tasty food, decent portions. Great service. Expensive alcohol prices though

Love this pub…always call here for a pint or two after a walk in grenoside woods. It’s a little gem…Friendly staff and great food. Would highly recommend!

We go every Sunday for late lunch..food is fantastic and staff are amazing..would recommend to everyone.. Darren & Liz

Food excellent, pub quiz challenging and good fun. Parking a bit difficult, but the car park is plenty big enough.

Birthday Party of 12, Pub fairly busy on arrival but several free tables, that cleared soon after arriving, but only 3 waiting staff on, a middle aged lady and 2 younger females, it became obvious they were overwhelmed. We were booked in for 1.30 did a pre order, and had no starter - it took until past 14.00 to get our food and that was because we chased it up. It’s pub food, but non was great some said it wasn’t too bad, but one of the cod’s was too peppery, all the chips were very over cooked, mine was the worst meal, grilled salmon with greens and orange and tarragon sauce + a side order of veg, I didn’t get any greens, I didn’t get any Orange and Tarragon Sauce, the salmon was so dry and over cooked it wasn’t nice, and when I tried to cut into the end pieces it cracked and crumbled like a cracker, they provided peas and green beans, which I believe were frozen, and I can eat neither due to illness, the side of veg I ordered was another dish of green beans/carrots, the complete meal was disgusting. I requested a salad instead of the veg, and it came with no dressing or mayo/salad cream - I was told they do not do salad dressing by the older lady. Apparently someone had asked if meals were OK but shouted it from nearby so only the end 2 people on the table heard and their meals wasn’t too bad, no one else heard it. I called the older Lady over to tell her it was disgusting, who said if you had told me sooner I would have got you something else - no apology, no offer to take it off the bill - I was disgusted! After waiting for more service that didn’t come, we fetched our own desert menus, then had to go and find someone to take the order, deserts were limited to sponge and custard or ice cream, everything else sold out. When I did my pre order I asked if we should pre-order deserts too and was told no. 1 person had treacle Sponge and custard, 1 child had a dry treacle sponge, and one child had a bowl of custard, there was 1 cup of tea and 4 coffees as no one wanted what was on offer. The deserts took a while to come so we had to chase them up as people had to leave for other things. We were all sat for a pre-order of 13.30 and left at 16.40, in that time we had just one course and drinks with 3 deserts, all this time was spent waiting to be served and chasing things up. The bill was for £210.00, there was no offer to knock anything off the bill, normally I would have left a £20 tip but the service and attitude of the older lady was very bad. My plate was nothing like it said on the menu, false advertising, but once put down you were lucky to see staff again unless you chased them. We were in an area away from everyone else, and it made us easy to forget about. It was a shocking experience. It really isn’t difficult to cook a piece of salmon, I did eat it as it was the first I’d had to eat that day but I couldn’t eat anything else, that £2.50 (in Asda) piece of dried up salmon ended up costing me £22. I will not be returning in a hurry if at all.

Visited for lunch after seeing the new fish menu. Unfortunately the overall experience was very disappointing. And an expensive disappointment at that. Firstly, while my friend and I ordered separately we were told that the kitchen would be told to make sure the meals came at the same time. My fish arrived 10 minutes before my friend omelette. I’m sure most chefs should know that the when having pan fried seabass the skin should be crispy. This wasn’t. However the fish did taste nice. The potato’s that came with it were absolutely awful. I do not know what fat these potatoes were cooked in but they tasted and smelt awful. I could not eat them. The menu said ‘greens’ as to what the veg would be. It was frozen peas and boiled carrots. My friend said her omelette was nice. Will be reluctant to return.

No idea how this place gets away with it. Nice enough pub but the pricing is ludicrous ! We mentioned it to the staff and they assured us they didn't drink there themselves either after their shifts. Absolute rip off.

This was a birthday meal with the family, which was marred by the poor standard of food. Some of us had starters, after the starters had finished, we had a wait of around 20 minutes for everyone to get their main meal, the meals arrived only to send back both of the liver and onion meals as the liver on both meals was undercooked and raw. Yes it was busy, but that's no excuse. The staff were understanding and apologised. However due to the long wait one of us decided not to wait a further 20 minutes for their meal so they didn't actually have anything to eat at all. Since the last visit the standard of food is not as before. Due to the amount of time waiting for our meals we all decided not to have desserts and left.

Organised Dad’s 90th birthday here for a Sunday lunchtime. We were a party of 18 and David and the staff looked after us really well. The food was delicious- thank you!

Not sure where to start by here goes.. After our friend booked a table earlier in the week, 7 of us arrived to be told they couldn't find our booking. After waiting around a while, they cobbled together a table for us in a corner. It took ages for someone to come and take our order, only to be told that they'd run out of chips! We were left waiting well over an hour for our food to come, with no staff checking in to see if we were ok. Finally food arrived, but they were so slow, some of us had nearly finished our meals when the rest came out, and at best it was mediocre. The salmon was priced at £20, which is the most expensive I've seen anywhere. It came with some fried new potatoes and a few boiled veg. Our burger came with no onion rings, and the prawn cocktail was shrimps. I will also tell you that if you are vegetarian and allergic to gluten, all that will be on offer to you is a plate of mash potato and boiled veg. Not only this, but if you ask the staff if you can have some more mash, you will basically have it thrown at you by a rude child, who has been screamed at by some other customer during the day who is nothing to do with you, but she thinks its alright to take it out on you. Not only that, the incompetent manager will then try to charge you for 2 extra meals that you didn't have, and then get annoyed with you for pointing it out. He will then add up the bill again and make the same mistake, and then get more annoyed with you because all he wants to do is get you out of there so they can shut the pub early and go home and watch the England match. I felt sorry for the rest of the staff as they were trying to do their best on a busy day, but if you are going to employ children, they need to be trained to be polite to customers in any situation. Although, if you have a 'manager' like the one on the day we came, then it's no surprise that the whole thing was a complete shambles.

Booked for a group of 13 people, the pub was very friendly and welcoming, good selection of beers and drinks. We ordered various food items, every one said how good all the food was with no complaints from anyone. The atmosphere of the pub was good and the service very good. I will definitely be back

Amazing food, and a lovely warm pub. I would highly recommend the hot roast Beef sandwich (light bite). Just the way Grandma made it on boxing day.

Lovely meal really enjoyed the night.

Amazing food friendly staff good atmosphere

Lovely pub the food was really good

Walked up with my friend and my 2 dogs yesterday. Haven't been in for a long time. Couldn't have been made more welcome. Nothing was too much trouble. The food was excellent and very, very, generous. The doggy boys enjoyed the benefits of that. Had the 2 course lunch menu. It really made our day and a lovely surprise. We shall definitely go again and highly recommend it for others to go too.

Top drawer. 1st time today and what a gem it is

Fine; the type of place you go for something to eat

Food was very good and enjoyed the cider, lovely!

First visit for me , went with a friend who is a regular and had spoken about it a lot 😀 lived up to my expectations!! Lovely place , great food and very helpful and friendly staff. I'll definitely be back .

Similar to the pub in American Werewolf in London...but with nice staff 😆

Popped in for a meal while in Sheffield for the snooker with friends, and so glad we did. The pub is amazing, very family friendly and the staff could not be nicer if the tried.... Nothing was too much trouble for them. The seafood platter I had was stunning, and cooked by Jamie Oliver (no, not that one, although I recon it would be hard to tell the difference 😂). We will be coming back next year for the snooker and this is definitely on our list of places to go back to that's fir sure. If you are looking for a great pub with good beers, amazing food and a brilliant atmosphere, try here... You won't be disappointed 👍

Food was top quality and plenty of it , staff friendly and helpful, feels like a lovely family place

First time here and very impressed food piping hot and presented well and good value for money staff attentive all the time and friendly will be back again when next in Sheffield

Highly Recommended! Great food, huge portions.

Dropped on this lovely pub after a walk in the area. Lovely home cooked food. Had the fish goujon sandwich off the light bite menu at lunchtime. Shared the chips with my friend. The portion was huge. A little gem. Will definitely go back.

Lovely food great service - a little noisy as it was quiz night.

Really Nice Food, Big Meals, Big Nice Place

Nice place and friendly staff, food was great but both food and drinks are over priced

Great country pub, with pub food. Good atmosphere, busy .

The food was stunning. All the staff were obviously very busy however we were still accommodated and we all left more than happy. The whole team tried their hardest to work around any issues. It was lovely to see how all off the staff helped eachother in order for our food and service to be top notch. We will defo let be visiting again. Thankyou again.

Visited The Old Red Lion for Mother’s Day today…we have all really enjoyed ourselves. From start to finish the service was amazing! All staff were smiley, welcoming and made sure we were all happy. The food was fantastic- my favourite was the Sunday roast beef dinner, the meat melted in my mouth it was gorgeous! We will all definitely come again. Thanks Top Red, you have made my first Mother’s Day one to remember!

Went on the 2nd March. Really busy pub. Nice food. Good service. Would recommend 👌

Outstanding food and service every member of the family absolutely loved it.

Went there after the service at the crematorium, very nice place

Went for a walk to the woods and a couple of walkers recommended we go here for a pint after. We managed to get seated for food as well by chance. the Sunday dinner was beautiful just enough on the plate home made puds with a small tray of seasonal veg. Staff were polite and the atmosphere of the pub was very nice. Love the old pubs the best. Nice pint and nice wine. Pub parking at the is really good never seen that big of a car park for a pub that size

Very friendly village pub,welcoming atmosphere especially as fire was lit.Cosy feeling,very different from my last visit which we worked out was just over 50 years ago when I used to live in the village.Staff were very welcoming and efficient, excellent house wine, Good menu,we ordered 2 fish platters and 1 steak and Stilton pie.Fish platters were nicely presented,all parts were delicious 2 large fish goujons,scampi and a fishcake,the size of the small prawn cocktail was a starter size,excellent home cooked chips and mushy peas .All tasted beautifully, My son who is a chef declared the pie as delicious (bonus was they had Henderson's relish ) Excellent outside area with good sized car park,can imagine very popular place on sunny summer afternoons.
