Red Bull Pub in Cheshire West and Chester

Warm welcome from.staff on arrival, made me feel very at ease as I was on my own, ordered the lamb shank which came out fast and was pipping hot, plus delicious. Had company from the pub cat whilst the rest of the customer did a pub quiz. Very pleasant experience here. Food was lovely and staff were great. Thank you.

Just been for our first meal at the Red Bull since it has opened up fully. Just brilliant. Lovely friendly pub that welcomes everyone with a smile. Nothing else to do but recommend 5*

A great pub with a friendly atmosphere. Excellent food and exceptional value for money. Will definitely be visiting again soon. Felt very safe due to ongoing Covid restrictions.

3rd time in as many weeks, great service, huge portions. Fab village pub. Definitely worth a visit if your passing or even if a little out of your way. Will be a regular haunt for us now even when the eat out to help out finishes.

We attended for a mother days meal and the hospitality was great! The Food was delicious and the pub had a warm and friendly vibe would highly recommend

A great, cosy local pub with wonderful pub grub. Good value for money, a great, welcoming atmosphere & lovely staff. I had the Thai fish cakes with yummy chunky chips - tasty & very filling but of course still managed to find room for apple pie & custard!

A true 'local' pub that delivers as you would expect it to, the welcome is friendly from both the management and the disquisitive clientele, the food reasonably priced and the fire warm. The Red Bull has a lazy Sunday with the papers down to a tee.

We visited the pub for a meal with relatives who live nearby. The pub is very warm and welcoming and the staff behind the bar welcoming and friendly. It is our relatives local pub and I really wish we had a pub like this where we live. We are veggies and the options for a little pub nestled in a village were surprisingly good! The food is good wholesome food prepared with love! Good portion size, and delicious! I had a butternut squash lasagne and Bailey's cheesecake which was awesome! My partner had tortelloni which was delicious and we had chips; big and crispy and garlic bread which was crunchy and garlickly. We sat next to the Christmas tree by a roaring fire and the service was really fast and efficient.Would definitely recommend it if you are hungry and nearby. lovely place relaxed and good value for money.

Went today with a group for a Xmas meal..... was excellent. Hot and promptly served. The hosts were attentive and friendly, without being overbearing. Food was tasty and well cooked. Definitely worth a visit... highly recommended :-)

Visited this pub after a trip to delamere forest. Owners were super friendly and gave the whole pub a lovely atmosphere. Service was quick and food was good. Would visit again if I found myself in the area.

My adult son and I ate here recently. This pub is more of a local pub for the village whose inhabitants clearly met there regularly. The atmosphere was noisy and convivial- most people were (like me) later middle age. It seemed to us that this is more of a traditional drinking pub than a dining pub. It was for this reason that the atmosphere wasn't what we were expecting, and why it has got three stars - had we gone for a drink and to be a part of "the crowd" it would have had 5 stars. People were very pleasant, those running the bar were lovely and they welcome dogs which is fabulous. It was our first visit, and the atmosphere was not what we were looking for at the time - that's down to us, not the venue. All that being said, the food was lovely, we both had starters and a main course. It was all nicely presented and beautifully cooked. Portions were generous. This is definitely worth a visit whether for a drink or a meal - just expect there to be quite a bit of noise with chatter.

Lovely pub! Hosts Ciaran and Terry always have a smile and an engaging word or two to make you feel welcome and at ease! Had my first meal here recently and was not disappointed at all. I chose the spicy Thai fishcakes (cod and prawn), very tasty indeed! My dish was beautifully presented with an abundance of delicious fresh salad! Love the relaxed atmosphere and community spirit of The Red Bull! Will definitely be back! Thanks guys 😁👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

Lovely atmosphere, very friendly staff and great pub food. They even cater for Gluten Free. What more could you ask for from a local?

Red Bull's Homemade burgers - delicious!!! Special offers on Thursday nights. Other great choices on the menu too. Good value for money in a really friendly, cosy village pub. Would recommend.

A wonderful little pub in a sleepy village. Somewhere I wouldn’t usually go if I wasn’t from the area.. But the staff and food was amazing. Don’t be afraid of the ‘old mans village pub’ stereotype, it’s nothing like that when you step inside! We received a really warm welcome from the owners and staff, very friendly with actual interest in my friends and I which you don’t often get in a lot of places. The food was great and the menu had many options for me as a vegetarian - highly recommend and will definitely be back again.

Stopped nearby on the canal and went here for dinner and drinks, very pleasantly surprised with the high level of hospitality and helpfullness. Chef went out of his way to do an amazing vegan curry and the steaks were fantastic as well as portion sizes. Best value and quality we have had for a long time.

Great food by an open fire for Mothers Day. The pub has great staff, good food and a perfect atmosphere for families and couples alike.

Perfect setting for 3 generations of mothers and the family. Great food, good atmosphere, excellent service, and great value for money.

A late booking managed to fit us in, first visit certainly not our last. Very warm welcoming pub friendly staff, food was delicious sadly too full to have pudding although we were tempted. A lovely gift for the Mums too a nice touch Thank you for making Mother's day extra special.

Went with the family for Mother’s Day lunch, food was fantastic & service excellent. Always get a friendly welcome from the landlord & staff. Food quality excellent & very reasonably priced.

First time visited, will certainly go back again! Staff were lovely. Food was very enjoyable and reasonably priced. Can't wait to return and try something from the full menu. Thought the Mother's Day gift (plant) was a very nice touch, thanks. See you soon!

The best fish finger butty ever. Combined with warm real fire, lovely red wine and telly screen with 6 nations rugby- what’s not to love?

Great to see the Red Bull thriving last, great beer, great food, well done Ciaran & Terry, keep up the good work �

I found this pub by mistake on the internet, and was pleased I did. The pub serves unpretentious reasonably priced...

Dined here a couple of times now and impressed with the service and helpfulness of the hosts and staff. Food...

I approached the Red Bull to see if they could accommodate a small (15 people) walking group for a circular...

Lovely friendly locals pub with good food and welcoming clientele. Our new favourite local. Good choice of beers and wine and lovely Nordes gin. Food simple well presented and served with a smile. Thoroughly recommend

En los últimos años el Red Bull tiene "disfrutamos" gestión indiferente. Ahora, es estar a la altura de su potencial. Un pub agradable que ofrece buena comida en un ambiente agradable que sirve cervezas bien. Vale la pena una visita.

Metimos en con la familia a lo que es nuestro nuevo pub local. No nos decepcionó. Un encantador ambiente de pueblo. Personal amable. La comida era genial, comida casera. La carne y budín de guinness désuet era absolutamente delicioso.

Una comida de pub familia encantadora en un ambiente agradable. Ciaran y Terry hacen que todo el mundo bienvenidos en un auténtico ambiente de pueblo.

Queríamos un lugar cerca para algunos Delemere comida de pub. Vimos el Red Bull en tripadvisor con buenas críticas. Pub es encantador con un personal amable y un ambiente relajado. No esperaba que la comida era tan buena como, especialmente el pescado y el estofado. Se lo recomendaría a cualquiera. Menú no es grande, pero que para la mayoría de la gente y los gustos. Volveremos pronto.

Un total de transformación. Gran ambiente y precioso "comida de pub". Ciaran y Terry están haciendo un magnífico trabajo y su duro trabajo está pagando

Went today for some food and it was the best thing I've eaten in ages. Defiantly better then The Fish Pool Inn. If your hungry and want some local grub defiantly go to The Red Bull, Situated in the hard of the beautiful cheesier countryside. Will bee sting you soon! Lovely staff behind the bar and the character of the traditional English pub with a modern twist looks lovely. Well done miles better then a few years ago, defiantly turned it around to be a happy, fresh, welcoming pub!

This pub has just got better and better, we had a great St Patricks evening there last week, with all the Irish music, and a great atmosphere. They new team of Ciaran and Terry continue to work on their initial success and I can see the pub going from strength to strength.

Lovely pub with brilliant service all round. The food, drink and staff was lovely. Very warm and welcoming atmosphere, will definitely be coming to the red bull again soon.

Lovely clean pub friendly atmosphere friendly staff and food was lovely quick service would definitely go back

The Red Bull is my local which I've not used for the last 5 years or so but gave it a go as I knew it was under new managementI agree whole heartedly with other recent reviews that the atmosphere has been transformed in a really good way and the new management are to be really congratulated on this. You can tall they're really trying and the pub needs this. 10/10. Really wanted to be able to give it a thumbs upBUT - my beer was sour - Cheshire Cat, my favourite but couldnt finish the pint. Food is straight out off the freezer, into the fryer, wait 3 minutes, serve. There was no separate cook - the barman did it between serving behind the bar so you know its just "Farm Foods" or the catering equivalent. Perfectly edible but £20 for 2 main courses that would have cost me £3 at Iceland? Not for me again I'm afraid

Popped in for just a drink. Nice friendly welcome from Ciaran and Terry..both the guys have really transformed the atmosphere here. After only 3 months the place is now well on the way to being the proper Village Pub that's been so lacking in recent times. Plenty of people eating here too!

Since Ciaran & Terry have taken over this Pub it has been transformed back into a proper village pub with lots of great atmosphere. It is now a pleasure to go in and get a warm welcome. I hope the people of Kingsley support it and it continues to grow on it's initial success

Nice to see the Red Bull back on form last night, great beer, great food, well done Ciaran & Terry, keep up the good work �

This little pub really shouts out good old Britain pub. The Red Bull sits in a lovely little village not far from Delamere Forrest. The pub is very welcoming, warm and friendly. The open fire is always cracking away that adds to the lovely atmosphere. This pub doesn't need the big flashy features that are seen in the big new pubs. It quite simply a great pub with proper pub food and humorous landlords. Everyone is made welcome. Tonight I had their fish and chips, it was amazing.

Thank you Ciaran Kelly and Terry Clynes for giving us the answer to the 'TFF, who's turn is it to cook?' conundrum. Great food, great atmosphere and great beer. Thank you for making the Red Bull Kingsley great again.

We had the scampi & beef pie for our main and they were perfect. Beautiful food sat by the fire. Lovely friendly locals. Will definitely be back when we are over that way.

What a lovely country pub with lovely welcoming hosts. Ciaran and Terry have only been here for a matter of weeks but what good changes they are making. There seems to be a large group of friendly locals that frequent this pub nightly. There is a lovely cosy real fire great for a cold winters day.Food was lovely wholesome basic pub food, great service and really reasonable prices.I would highly recommend the drive out here. We will certainly be returning

Good friendly atmosphere. Very welcoming by the hosts. Attention to detail. Not tried the food yet, but menu looks great.Good guest beers.

Have visited the pub a few times since the new owners have taken over and it is lovely and welcoming. The staff are friendly and hardworking. The glasses are super clean and the beer is really well kept. The pub is cosy with a roaring open fire and has a fabulous medieval table and chairs in one section. The food is really good too. As it stands I will be making this a regular visitor with the family.

I had a takeaway from the Red Bull last night what a fantastic dish well presented well packaged and the taste was excellent. The chips were golden and crisp and not soggy atall the fish was exactly the same and one of the nicest tasting fish I have had in a long while, so peps get down to the Bull and enjoy the food. ( I'd walk down or have a driver to hand because the beer is of the highest standards around so you will won't more than one) Ste b...

Called in for a couple of drinks with friends and had a bite to eat. The Red Bull is a nice traditional pub with friendly staff and is well priced.

Now under new management, great place to chill at the end if the bar for a nice beer, good glass of wine or even the odd cocktail. Good Food back on the menu and a really chilled nice atmosphere, would highly recommend.

Visited with 4 friends for a birthday meal. Massive medieval table reserved just for us! Good selection of real ales, wines and even Fevertree Tonic for the Gin! Food was good English pub grub. I believe there's new management recently taken over - you can see the improvements already!

Most pub simply want you're business, especially on a Sunday evening. The hosts Of The Red Bull however insist you have a warm, friendly and fun night first of all, before they expect you to spend your money with them. Honestly, I'm almost reluctant to praise this pub too highly because soon enough it'll be hard to get a tableGreat food, warm, cosy, real pub, with attention to detail whilst always maintaining a totally relaxed approach.Highly recommended. A great night and we also met some super friendly locals.

Great little country pub with a great atmosphere, a whole new vibe under the new management, friendly and welcoming with great food

Celebrated a friend's birthday here. Received a warm welcome from the owners and they had reserved a large table for our meal. Service was friendly and both the drinks and food were good. Friendly locals and live entertainment made for an enjoyable evening. Will be returning soon.

I have always really liked this pub, but as it has been taken over I like the new little 'nips and tucks'! It is very welcoming and although not a 'restaurant' as such, has good 'pub food!' at reasonable prices..I always say if you want a restaurant, go to a restaurant with extortionate prices! This is just a great place for nice drinks and nice food at good prices!.. Most enjoyable!....

First time at the Red Bull in about 12 months. We were a party of 4, booked a table via Facebook. Well kept ales and really nice food at reasonable priced.

Lately the pub has been allowed to run down but under the new management, a huge improvement has taken place. There is reasonably priced pub food on offer and the beer is well kept. The place is now popular with locals and thanks to a roaring fire, is nice and warm. The new management has only been in harness for under a month but the changes are marked. It will be interesting to see how the garden evolves .. It has so much potential with a babbling brook and mature planting. In short, worth a visit.

Just been back to the Red Bull for the first time in over a year new management friendly Great Ale and Fantastic Food warm atmosphere will be back again soon

we were a party of 6 and were impressed by the service, the typical basic pub food menu, the quality of the food, and the fairness of the price all supported by exceptional real ale

I visited this pub recently with my fiancé and we had a Sunday roast each followed by a desert. The food was really tasty and the interior nice and cosy. It also has a local country pub feel which we really liked. We are bringing family here soon as we enjoyed it so much.

We had a couple of drinks here while staying locally. Quite a few friendly locals in about an hour before closing time. Friendly old fashioned pub with chatty Mine Hostess. Well kept beer. Clean toilets. Only doing bar snacks now

Had a very enjoyable family evening here - very good beer and a very welcoming landlady.Pleasant surroundings and atmosphere - we'll be back

Great food, good atmosphere, theme nights, Good value for money and superb lunches. Friendly staff and lovely position

Had arranged to go out with my boyfriend and we decided to go here, thought the food was beautiful and real home made no frozen food like most places, will definately recommend coming here and a friendly atmosphere aswell

After reading such good reviews we were looking forward to a nice meal here. Left feeling let down and quite sickly. We both ordered garlic mushrooms. As they arrived I mentioned that they smelled cheesy, my husband was confused as to what I was going on about, upon tasting them something was off about them, aside from the mushrooms being rubbery in texture the sauce which was supposed to be creamy garlic was just rotten, almost like it was off or maybe there was some residue from the dishwasher in the bowl it was served in (not sure but it was inedible), all the while my husband was shovelling his down. I asked him to try mine, he took a mouthful and spat it out tasting the same thing I did. I tried his sauce and it was totally different. The main was burger and chips. The burger fell into a great load of ground up mince pieces as I cut into it, as if when prepared the chef had just squeezed a ball of mince into a burger shape and cooked it without anything in there to bind it together or add flavour. The chips could have been nice if they weren't majorly overcooked and charred and if they hadn't been cooked in oil that tasted like it should have been changed some time ago. We resented paying for such unpleasant food which (on my part) was hardly touched and I left feeling rather sick.

Been coming here for years, since new management took over, over two years ago, it's totally changed. Food is excellent with friendly, knowledgeable staff. There are lovely locally scoured guest ales. Which are changed frequently. Bar staff knew there beers. Well done Red Bull keep up the hard work!!!!

All i can say is brilliant. Staff knew all about locally scourced guest ales. Food was tasty and freshly cooked. Open real fire. Well recommended, and certainly will be going again. Well done to all who work in there.

We went for lunch here a couple of weeks ago after a walk at Delamere. The pub is charming and welcoming with a lovely open fire, and the food was delicious, one of the best burgers I've had in a long time! The landlady told me she runs the place completely herself including making all of the food fresh which shows in the quality. Would certainly recommend this place for lunch, we're looking forward to going back for a roast dinner!

Naomi sets her stall out to provide honest pub food sourced locally, as well as hosting a traditional no nonsense pub. She suceeds in doing this by her enthusiasm, passion, warmth and bloody hard work. The cask ales were superb, the steak and ale pie and risotto tremendous, the eton mess and cheesecake a delight. Portions are generous.The Red Bull is no "here today gone tomorrow" gastropub. Its values are embedded in its local community which will prove to be its strength.This is a great pub...the perfect place to obtain rest and refreshment after a walk in Delamere. Its dog friendly too. We will be back!!

Food was lovely. Staff very helpful had a great time helped us have a great night in a very nice setting

Nipped in for a quick pint, Land lady was very welcoming.Few locals around the bar as it was 4:45.Had two pints both to a very good quality, 4 pints on offer! Will be returning in the new year to try the food !

This is a great pub tucked away in the pretty village of Kingsley in Cheshire.It's a free house and doesnt' therefore suffer the issues of some of the larger pub chains (limiting the type of beer that can be sold, where the food comes from etc). The result is a fine selection of Cheshire beers (the friendly and welcoming landlady is very keen on and knowledgeable about local brews), well kept and regularly changed (apart from the oracle and Weetwood).The food is mostly pub grub, but is very good pub grub. Reasonably priced, always tasty (the chicken and bacon salad is a particular highlight), and one Friday a month they have a guest chef - definitely worth visiting for!With occasional open mic nights, bands, a pub quiz and many local groups who use the pub for meetings, this is a warm and welcoming pub that is a pleasure to visit. Camra really should pop down and pay a visit - it should get a cask ale award!

Called in a couple of weeks ago with my son it was a very warm day so we went and sat outside was very pleased to see that they had Cheshire cat on tap and the great cider also on tap was made to feel very welcome will certainly be returning very soon

I got their and we got a few drinks or two and my glass had lipstick on it and My mum's glass had lip stick on and my sister's glass was dusty and just dirtyNot a great start the food is good average a lovely young waitress but there was only one person there staff whise it was also quite quiete for people one family there of about 3 and they where in and out there isn't much child friendly things to do so children are out of the game if you do go take something to do with you but they where friendly.

Have visited the red bull a few times over last few months and after moving into area am looking forward to becoming a regular. Great selection of real ales which change on a regular basis, really friendly staff and good homemade food.

We turned up at lunch time on a Saturday on a family outing (6 adults & 6 children) and the landlady made us feel very welcome. The food was good and the landlady made sure the children received their meals first ... just what was needed as they were all hungry. From a personal point, the beer was excellent. No complaints from us & is certainly on the list for a future visit.

The chip fat tasted stale and in need of changing. I was looking forward to proper chips but the stale fat taste spoiled them somewhat. The rest of the food was fine, average value for money. The steak pie was good. Not much salad with the burger - could be a bit more imaginative - just a few leaves. Could include some coleslaw and tomato? House wine was nice. Barmaid was friendly and polite

Sunday lunch served with a smile in a nice atmosphere. The landlady was welcoming with a "nothing is too much trouble" attitude. The lunch matches any in the area that I have eaten. Generous portions, reasonable price.And no washing up. Makes me wonder why I bother cooking!

Really friendly pub, landlady really nice and helpful. Food excellent. Lots of it, but also of very high quality. Mushy peas with the fish and chips especially good. Desserts also good, with extra volume when we decided to share. Highly recommended!

We have visited the Red Bull on several occasions and have not been disappointed. Traditional food which is consistently good, freshly cooked and well presented. A good selection of beers/wine and a friendly, relaxed atmosphere have all made it worth returning.

Me and my wife called in the red bull just for a drink but found our selfs staying for more than just the one. The landlady and locals were really friendly So we had another couple of drinks followed by a lovely meal and live music to finish a quite enjoyable evening.we would recommend the red bull very much.well done the red bull and staff look forward to see you again shortly

Recently started serving breakfasts 9-11am. Well cooked and presented. Local sausages large mug of coffee. Served with a smile. Well done and keep up the good work!

Since the new management took over last September, the pub is so much more welcoming. A lovely traditional local pub with friendly service, well kept beer and excellent home cooked traditional no-nonsense pub food. There is enough on the menu to keep you interested with good specials too.

Now I am not normally the sort of person who would order a steak burger when out for a meal.However I dropped my guard and indulged in one and it was the tastiest burger I have had in years,You can always detect (i put my reputation on the line) when one is home made and I can safely say that this one was. Accompanied with a mozzarella topping and hand cut chips and washed down with a pint of Cheshire cat bitter , what more is there to say . Try one !!!

I've been visiting the Red Bull for over 16 years but over the past year or so I stopped going as I no longer found it friendly or welcoming. That's now changed as since September 2012 it's been under the new management of Naomi and her team. There's a new chef who cooks fantastic food, a good choice of real ales at sensible prices, and a really friendly welcome as soon as you walk in the door. Its' great to see the Red Bull busy again, and I highly recommend it to everyone.

Just been to the Red Bull. The steak and ale pie is excellent. Good ambience , good food , good staff and excellent service.Need I say more.Try it for yourself.Ron mun and wife.

We'd walked 7 miles so had built up a good appetite by the time we arrived and we were not disappointed, I managed to wolf two courses down but my other half couldn't finish her dessert (the cheesecake was massive!).We both had the Sunday Roast, which was absolutely perfect and just the right amount. We were pleasantly surprised by the veg – carrots, broccoli, sugar-snap peas and a great cabbage/mustard dish (trust me, it’s fantastic).It was our first visit but certainly not our last.

I visited the pub while on holiday in Cheshire at New Year' Had a pub lunch which was excellent. Hand cut chipe and a lovely pie. Nice ambience in beautiful countryside. Highly recommended.

A charming 'real pub' in a lovely country village setting with food to die for. The staff were really pleasant and friendly and the locals were welcoming. The food menu was unique and adventurous with a great twist to basic dishes. Would definitely recommend.

Had visited the Red Bull at Kingsley on many occasions over the past years and always enjoyed the food and atmosphere. For no particular reason we hadn't visited for some months so on visiting tonight for an unplanned meal we were somewhat surprised to find it under new management and with a much reduced menu. The atmosphere was the same warm buzz. The decor much fresher. Choice of beers - excellent. So from the menu we chose the fish and chips and the steak. The steak for me was just wow - beautifully presented and so tasty. The best I've had in along time . The fish and chips was equally well enjoyed. So from a small choice of menu (we didn't see the specials board) we chose two excellent meals.Well done the Red Bull and keep up the excellent work.

ZIt was the first time we had eaten at the pub and to be honest we weren't expecting much, however we were pleasantly surprised. The soup was delicious, the main courses were lovely and service prompt. Reasonabley priced. Would recommend and definitely come again.

Always been a typical village pub. Recently been taken over. I can't say anything bad about previous landlord as enjoyed pub whilst he was there but I have to say that Naomi has certainly cleaned up the act. Much more empathise on cleanliness. Good atmosphere staff friendly, landlady very welcoming food has only just started but looked very nice, will sample some soon. Keep up the good work but would be nice to see some quality wines and different lager.

I have never dined at The Red Bull before, but having taught in the village school, I knew it well and decided that, as it had a new chef, it was time to try their food. Kingsley Village is delightful and feels like a real village. The locals said hello as we walked in, the landlady had a ready smile and the waitresses were helpful, so we were off to a great start. The new menu had started only a few days before our visit, oh and a lovely coal fire burned in the grate and was prodded to life by an enthusiastic member of staff. Although the menu was not extensive it was perfectly formed and also had tasty options for non meat eaters. I dined with two elderly ladies one of whom had a very hearty beef and ale pie which looked, and I'm told, tasted delicious. I had a starter as a main as did the other member of our party, both of us choosing a warm goats cheese and beetroot salad. It was beautifully presented and tasted divine. Sadly I am unable to report on the coffee, an important measure of a quality eatery for me, as their machine had broken down. However I will return to sample it very soon. My only criticism is that the room with the beautiful fire was a little dark, however as the decor was the previous incumbent's choice this could change...but it is a quirky village pub so maybe it should remain in character! A bright and airy room was available but there was no fire in that fireplace today. Well done new chef.

Went for a drink, pub has been decorated. New pumps different beer...very nice! Not got food yet but was told it would be on soon! Pleasant evening.

payed a visit to this pub for family meal but on walking in from the carpark we noticed grease dried onto the outside wall from a very dirty kitchen fan ( yuk) however we had our meal, wasnt bad had nicer, wont be returning until the outside wall has been looked at by proprieter....

Excellent food well cooked and served the atmonphere is great.

If you want a nice pie and a pint with none of the hidden over priced extras, Ho there, great..
