Red Lion in Wolverhampton

Great food, great quiz, friendly staff, lovely atmosphere. Visit every week always a great night out. Good laugh, fun for everyone

Lovely staff who brought the food almost immediately! Especially the staff member erin who was exceptionally sweet and kind !!!!

Arrived for a weekend break visited this pub staff were fab Adam gave us 5 star treatment very helpful great live music brilliant atmosphere

We wrote a review last year and decided to give an updated review. Me and my partner visit the Red Lion on a regular basis, normally for drinks and occasionally for food. If we could give more than 5 stars we would do so for the prices of both food and drink, atmosphere, cleanliness and service. However, the standout factor which is irreplaceable is the absolutely fantastic team of staff which Annie has built, they are all efficient, professional,friendly and always helpful to us both especially Clare and Adam. Our thanks to you all. Long may it continue. See you Monday. Les and Corrine. Hope you will have some of our favourite scratchings.

My mate and I visited this pub on a Friday afternoon for a catch up, as we like to try out different pubs from time to time and we hadn't been here for a while. We had food which was okay but the Carling was not up to the standard I would expect, it was a tad not cold enough and had a funny tang to it but I've had worse so let it go. But about 4pm four lads came in and requested the music to be turned up, to which management did. It was so loud then my mate and I couldn't hear ourselves talk, so drank up and left, we were going to stay for another hour, but it was like being at a rave. It'll be a while before I go there again, just not the place for a quiet relaxing drink and chat.

It doesn’t give me the option to review there home delivery option so I thought I would review here in the hope that those who aren’t aware of it will soon be. Chose what we wanted using the online menu plenty of choice for everyone and waited for the food to be delivered. We could see what was happening at each point and pleased with the prompt service. Food arrived exactly what we ordered, nice hot and very tasty. They were well worth it and bigger than expected. compliments to the chef Mike. Looking forward to ordering again in the near future and spreading the word

A group of us go on a regular basis for the quiz night, and have ventured on a Saturday for the live music on occasion. Annie,Claire and the team make you very welcome, service is always good. We have had food on a couple of occasions, always good, will definitely eat there again

Always welcoming and arranging a wide variety of entertainment that locals enjoy. Shout out especially to Clare that is always there to help everyone have the best time and support events

Went in here for the first time a week ago. First impressions were really good. A nice pub with a buzzing atmosphere. We only went in for a drink but as we saw some of the meals coming out we decided to order food. The food and service was amazing. Could not fault it. We managed to bump into the chef who was cooking that day. A lovely lady called Claire! We obviously commented on how great the food was and was shocked to be told she was not the usual chef for the day. Credit to her as the food was delicious! Would highly recommend this nice establishment to anyone and if Claire is in the kitchen or on service you are in for a treat. Was made to feel so welcome and look forward to going back with other friends soon.

Never had to wait long for our food, we had Claire who was amazing. She made sure we was catered for and our food was cooked how we liked it. She is hardworking employee of The Red Lion and even if she is rushed off her feet she makes sure the customers are enjoying their meals and drinks. Not many pubs we have visited has a reliable, hard working person like Claire. Fantastic member of staff.

was absolutely bostin, top class beer, and good atmosphere. team are mega friendly too! have a gd un

great food and a smashing pint.

Amazing food here and for the price you really cannot complain. The staff are lovely and have great banter. Would really recommend for some cheap and high quality pub grub

proper cheeky, the food was lovely, great service, everyone behind bar was so nice and welcoming xxxx

great service the staff were really friendly and the food was good! nice and cheap too! absolutely banging x

amazing food and drinks. lovely staff. 10/10 recommend. good for large groups and family friendly.

I would like to thank Adam and Matt for how they treated my allergies. Nothing was too much trouble. They bought the food out separately to ensure no cross contamination. The good was delicious and the service was amazing. I’ll definitely be going back soon

Had a lovely meal here and the attention they paid to my friend’s allergies was exemplary. The service was excellent, staff friendly and facilities clean Will definitely be back soon

It was my first visit here, although a sad occasion (funeral) it was a very warm and inviting place, the two lovely friendly members of staff who took care of us Sarah and Tracey, were both so lovely, couldn't do enough to help, they worked very hard to make sure everyone was catered for, I have some issues with eating dairy and Tracey offered to make me some sandwiches of my own, although I said no thank you, it touched me that she offered, she certainly wanted everyone to be happy, Sarah greeted us with such a big friendly smile, I warmed to her straight away, her lovely face lit up the room, oouzing friendliness. I'd definitely go back on a much happier occasion next time. Thanks for taking good care of us all.

Brilliant local with amazing staff. Always in here with the lads playing pool and it is always a good night in here. Highly recommend

Brilliant service by brilliant staff. A Smile everything. Food is excellent. Always a warm welcome.

Staff are very accommodating and don't have to wait long for a drink, even outside. Food is great and good value for money. Great night watching football outside, will be returning

Accommodating and friendly staff. Always about if we need to order drinks and make sure our visit was good, requested to sit closer to screens for the football which they accommodated with no issues. Food was excellent and had timely service despite being busy. Great night, would recommend for a comfortable and friendly drink. Will return.

Great to see the Red Lion open again as it has a large well kept garden with good views. Stopped for a lunch and quickly given a seat outside. Ordered my usual cod and chips with a beer that was previously £8 as a bundled food and drink offer. The charming waitress agreed but came back to me that the bundled offers were only 3 uninspiring fast food dishes with a beer. So paid for the food and drink separately coming to almost £4 more. Spoke to the manager who believes it is a head office choice and would possibly be changed when things get back to normal (It will not do so this year).I advised on a bundled curry and rice and fish and chips dishes with a beer as the colder weather will continue for some time. Everything seems to be in head office hands and the manager left with no autonomy. I hope to give 5 stars in the future.

The food was absolutely gorgeous! I got served by a lovely lady called Claire she made me and my grandparents feel ever so welcome!

Fish and chips on a Friday (and all week) is still excellent value especially if dining on Monday to Wednesday. The burgers are very popular as are chicken wings etc.Spacing is practiced and the manager hopes to install previous bundles such as a dish with a beer for a great price and a beer ticket allowing the 10th beer free.

A great locals pub. Visited the pub for lunch and drinks and was welcomed by friendly staff and found the dining area relaxed and warm and where a conversation could be had without the intrusion of loud background music. The food appeared quickly and can recommend the Katsyu Chicken and the burgers. Both meals were excellent and great value. Bar side had plenty of tv’s so likely pop in for the football at the weekend and check out the beer range.

Went to catch up with friends, so wish we'd gone elsewhere. Staff appear to be demoralised. No happy smiling faces, or polite welcome. When we were eventually served the word yes was snapped at us. We took our drinks & sat down to peruse the menu. The Lasagne was salty, boil in the bag curry disgusting, rice cold & chips overcooked. We weren't the only customers to complain. New staff in the kitchen as the Chefs got a day off was there excuse. Nobody bothered to ask if our meal was ok, we had to ask for cutlery. All in all a visit to be forgotten & never repeated. Can't help but think that the company made a big mistake in its refurb last year. Was ok for a few weeks after but has since dive bombed. It even makes The Lancaster look good. Used to be such a good fun place with great atmosphere, staff that were friendly but efficient as well as polite. Would be a perfect spot to build a few houses on. I can't see as anyone would miss it.

Lovely spacious, and modern pub. The staff were polite and friendly. The food was to die for and we didnt wait long. Good selection of Beers and Ales. At the back is a Darts Board and Pool Table. Outside is a large seating area and garden. Plenty going on on different days. There are several flat screen TVs to watch football and other sports. Well worth a visit to bring family and friends. Good value for money.

Visited on a Monday at 4pm which is designated wing day. Ordered 20 and my little brother ordered 6 as part of his plank, only to be told the kitchen has only 10 wings in total to serve. Frankly embarrassing

As long as you do not mind waiting 3 hours to get served for a drink and bar staff serving people either side of you even though some have only just turned up then fine if not give the place a swerve

Friendly staff especially Claire great selection of drinks, regularly used by family n friends lovely atmosphere

Greeted with a smile, the service was great - helpful and friendly bar staff (Tracey I believe).The food came out in good time - the food was perfectly cooked and tasted delicious! I would definitely recommend.The pub looks recently refurbished and has great amenity - Pool tables, dart board, great sports viewing and an extensive beer garden, which I imagine will get super busy in the summer

Went in just before 12 and had the full English. Couldn't complain for the price. Food was served hot, quickly and with a smile. Not Michelin star food, but decent value.

Since its renovation and new proprietor I had been in the Red Lion only for drinks, but on Friday lunchtime decided to eat there. The choice of food is wide, but the add-ons and variants confuse the issue and is what the Americans call “nickelling and diming you to death”. A simpler menu would I am sure be appreciated by clients. However every day there is a food theme and Friday is fish and chips day, so I went with this and a beer offer which is rather vague as to alcoholic and non-alcoholic choices. I learnt that the ales are not included but lager and Bank’s is as well as Guinness. So I had a half pint of a good local ale and ordered the Friday special fish and chips with a Guinness. The Guinness was cold and flavoursome. The fish was medium size, finely battered but could do with more colour, and came with some 20 good chips, mushy peas and a Tartare sauce. It was just what I needed. An option on this dish is cod at an extra £1, but £6 for this dish with a Guinness is a genuine bargain and I would fully recommend it. Strangely for Friday lunchtime there were only about 12 diners and most seem to go for the burgers. Perhaps now more people will realise the bargain that is a Red Lion lunch.

Lovely pub great service especially ariann beer is great the only thing that ruins this pub is the wonky wolves head

yes looks ok remodeled and change inside BUT had the chance try the food again for the third time and its no better /went on a monday BIG plate day BIG disappointment my friend ordered a very big burger only to be told they have run out and me the curry /curry very bland rice defo micro waved to long chips rubbish/burger well can i say ran out they said only half hour later some other people came and had the same as we did but by magic this burger appeared we both looked amazed very poor service AGAIN score 4 /10

My first visit since the pubs refurb. The pub is nice inside and out. Parking seems to be an issue for a large pub I think there is about 20 parking spaces, not ideal. They now have 2 pool tables one was really nice to play on and the other was in use but not as good quality as the the nice table plus it had a massive stain on it!! Food was nice, chicken wings AMAZING. Staff were nice and friendly, took a little while to get served the first visit to the bar but the other times there was staff waiting. Overall nice visit and yes I would go again.

Nice pub. Went new years absolutely packed. Always busy on a weekend. Friendly staff. Easy to get to, good location.

Took the family for an early Christmas meal as wont see them over the holidays. So glad we chose the Red Lion.

went here with my family and ordered pie/pint looked at the menu it defo said pie /mash /veg /gravy looked great on the pictures when it came BIG disappointment is not the word zero like the picture and the pie had been nuked so hard the bar staff even noticed was it hard she said we all said a big yes i will tell the chef .zero was done at the time somebody not doing there job correctly so complained to the higher management of stonegate pubs it took 3 managers and the chief executive to sort this 1 out the manager of this pub could not run a piss up in a brewery big zero from me so the moral is always read the menu people because the managers can.t //1 very happy chappy 1 to the people zero to the managers

Visited Tuesday 545 for a bite to eat. No tables available in lounge due to being reserved for quiz at 8? Had to sit in bar area.No issue there but the locals were having a minor revolt about the lack of football on television and no one behind bar seemed to know how to change it. Went to order food and was told no beef so then sat down to discuss alternatives with my partner. Then chose garlic Kiev. Went back up bar to be told sorry no Kiev. Sat down again and decided on sausage and mash and mixed grill. Went and sat down then a few minutes later another member of staff came over and says we have no mash. The other member of staff refused to come over as she was embarrassed.At this point I said I will have my money back. Appalling service.Sort it out or you will have no customers left.poor poor poor

This pub as started to become our regular we visit most saturday nights but this week was for a family drinks, we always find it a busy place with a good friendly atmospere, thankfully tonight a bit quieter so able to chat food is good will visit again soon

A great family pub with a very good extensive menu for both adults and kids. There are plenty of meal offers midweek such as two for one and pie night.

Haven't been for years, so decided as we'd been for food over the road, to have a quick drink while we were waiting for a taxi. Still a great pub. Really busy with a good atmosphere. Won't leave it as long next time.

Visited the red lion on several occasions recently

Visited with my mom at lunchtime midweek. Very quiet, served quickly and we were able to sit out in the sunny garden. Delicious burger and chips for me. Mom wanted a small breakfast without some items on, waitress quickly worked out best way to offer exactly what she wanted at a very good price. All cooked beautifully, served with a smile, couldn't fault it.

Visited the pub with family for a birthday meal and although it was a busy Saturday evening, food was served quick and was spot on. Service with a smile and well priced food and drink.

Splendid family-friendly pub run by very welcoming staff, serving tasty food and perfect hand-pulled ales. The steaks are cooked beautifully to your liking and the Beef & Double Gloucester pie just melts in the mouth. Sports are shown on big screens and there are lots of family-oriented events too. A superb community local in every sense!

One person ordered a mixed grill and was happy with it. I had the pie and it was extremely hard to cut into and I couldn't eat most of the pastry as it was so overcooked. Very disappointed. The staff were friendly and helpful and probably would have helped if I had complained but was tired and hungry so didn't have the energy.

Ive had to write this...never take your family to this pub!!!! My dad 60 years old was hit in the face by flying glasses and young kids too much drink and a clueless landlady...its a shame was a really nice family pub but let all the scum in...please keep your kids away pint glasses were flying around

Ordered our meal and when it arrived it was warm.

It is great pub to eat out cheaply. We were here on a Friday night and that was the Best of British specials. We had fish and chips and it included a glass of red wine or a pint of beer for £5.99. The fish was fresh not frozen. Cheaper than eating at home and great quality. Very popular with a he locals.

Pleasantly surprised by how nice this pub was . Meals very good value . Only complaint is the wine is very over priced

Really lovely and unpretentious pub-- really nice food at a reasonable price and very helpful and pleasant staff. Will definitely visit again!

Called in because of the curb appeal but that's all it has to offer waited at the bar to be served the oldish guy behind the bar served all his locals so both of us walked out

Fuimos a la Red Lion en Wednesfield para una comida antes de que nos fuimos de vacaciones el 2° octubre.

This pub is not very good for watching sport ,went with a group of friends to watch Eng v Fiji which started off ok but with 25 mins left turned off the big screen for a disco to start not very nice . Had to watch the rest of the game on a much smaller screen with no sound .Would this have been the case if it was Football , I think not .So my advise is not to go to The Red lion in Wednesfield to watch the rugby even though they are promoting it .Thanks to the staff for a poor event must try harder .

A nice local pub with pub food. Reasonably priced, they do a "two for £9" menu. But not a lot of choice. Most weekends they have some form of entertainment, like tribute bands. Staff are very friendly. In the week it is mainly older clientele, but a younger audince at the weekend. They also have family fun days on Bank Holidays

Food is not particularly tasty and can't see me eating there again but there is a large selection of drinks available. I do think that the constant booking of entertainment is not necessary and should be done sparingly as opposed to every week. Sometimes you can barely hear yourselves speak in either section of the pub. The locals would still support with or without the bands, cover artists, quizzes etc. Stick to sport....

Nice friendly family pub. Nice meals and good value for money. Fresh food too. No microwave rubbish. Good portions and child friendly. Drinks good priced

Ignorant bar staff! Not serving in the correct order,3 times I was overlooked! Never again. I guess you have to be a regular to get served.

A good meal, well presented, hot and tasty, at a very reasonable price. The staff were very good and the waiting time was short. All in all would recommend.

Enjoyed a lunch here on speck, wasn't sure what to expect but was pleasantly surprised by the good food on offer at decent prices, would go again.

this pub is my local and its got good quality delicious food its not too expensive either and got some good deal going on.

We eat here again between Christmas and New Year, on a relatively quiet Sunday afternoon. Again, the waitress was polite, and service was fairly quick. The menu has a good choice. We only wanted something light, so we both had bbq chicken melt baguettes with curly fries, and another side of garlic bread and cheese. Job done. We were pleasantly full.

We were in the Red Lion on a Saturday evening during the World Cup. Initially, we only popped in for a few drinks, but decided to eat about 8.30pm. Luckily, food is served until 9pm. The menu has recently been changed, and has a good variety of choices, including a 2 meals for £8 option. We both opted for bbq chicken melt, with a side of garlic bread & cheese. The food was very tasty, and didn't leave us feeling too bloated either. In fact, it left us wanting a bit more. The service was good as well, polite and they even asked if we wanted desserts afterwards. We enjoyed our meal and are keen to try some of the other menu choices in the near future.
