Red Lion Bilston Road in Wolverhampton

Food was awful, naan not bad but definitely wasn’t a proper peshwari - the chicken looked inedible (didn’t eat it) and doesn’t look or taste like a chicken tikka. The rice wasn’t pilau, not great. Wouldn’t order again.

Attended a fireworks and food event, but it quickly became apparent that it was not a suitable environment for us. The bonfire was situated in a skip filled with wooden pallets, and there was only one individual managing the fire while consuming alcohol. This same person was also responsible for lighting the fireworks. The children's fireworks display commenced 30 minutes later than the scheduled time and was ignited using a lighter. The fireworks were precariously wedged into a pallet, and one repeater malfunctioned, causing it to fall towards the crowd, prompting everyone to retreat. Hot dogs were priced at £2, while sweets and candy floss were sold at the same price. A bouncy castle was available, but it experienced frequent power outages, resulting in intermittent inflation and deflation. Overall, the event was not satisfactory.

I was supposed to order food on the Red lo today. I waited three hours ago from 8:00 to 11:00. They did not send the food. done When I went there and asked, the staff used very rough language

Lowish marks because it was early but always been a good pub.

Awesome venue, great staff, fantastic food. 😀

We came here for food the Tuesday curry and pint night. I can say it's like going back in time when my grandad used to take us to the pub with him. We had a curry for all of us no options just chicken. The curry was served very bland like a flavoured broth rather than a curry. The pub in general was very dated and food not so good maybe just ok for a quick pint

Could fault it perfect everytime.

I love the food, but was a bit disappointed when food came this time and no mint sauce for the popadoms whatsoever, mint sauce is one of my favourite parts!

Great pub really nice food friendly staff and customers always a good atmosphere

Food was really good. Would really recommend the pizza.

HANDS DOWN the best Indian takeaway I've had in a very long time, plenty of flavour, right amount of spice. Recommend thos place to anyone who asks for a good Indian!!

really bad. havent received food. it says delivered but we havent had it

I am a pub goer, and a foodie, I visit thousands of pubs and restaurants every year, here is my honest review of The Red Lion, Bilston Road, Wolverhampton Only put 1 star because that’s the minimum! Not a good experience at all, dead flies all over the floor in the main bar, looked like the area had been sprayed with fly killer which obviously killed the flies but they were just left and not cleaned up, we could hear the crunch under our feet! Toilets were dirty, smelly, and bits of tissue in the corners of the walls in the mens as if people had thrown them wet and they stuck, brown marks on the walls of the cubicle in the gents too, looked like excrement that had been there for years! Overall opinion, well I think you can work it out! Not a nice place to go!

Best Vegan chicken curry I’ve had. Food was piping hot and delicious. Fresh tasty naan bread and delicious vegan options

I always go to the Red Lion as it’s a fantastic Bar/Grill. I had a delivery for a change today and as always the food is 10/10 perfect. Delicious!

Food very good nice and hot reasonable prices

Tarka lamb chops abit too much tarka and mutter paneer was very creamy due to the sauce. Rest of the dishes - chicken korma, chicken tikka masala, rice, chips, fish pakora, chilli chips were lovely.

Small bar, over priced coke but lovely food.

Lovely food, great atmosphere safe pub to visit and good pint of carling, Madri.

Haven't been here for years but what a delightful return. A good old fashioned pub feel - smoky fire smell and it was packed with a really lovely class of people. The food was typical pub grub but of a high standard. The icing on the cake was the range of cocktails and all served by a very easy on the eye ex-Gonzo barman who was a dreamboat.

I paid for my order And my son paid for it cash And the delivery driver took the money How do I get my money back Paid twice £42 please look into this for me.

Went to the red lion, on Bilston road Wolverhampton for a birthday party, looks small from outside, but bars & function room, it is deceiving. Traditional Indian food served buffet style, with plenty of food to choose from & accompements. Self service but if you request anything it appears in a flash. Great atmosphere. Top party. 🎁🎈👍

Quality of the food was not as good as I’ve had previously.

Me and my brother visited this place for the first time. We loved the food, atmosphere, and service. Would definitely visit this place again.

Amazing grill and curry. Fast delivery. Excellent 👍🏽

Excellent Tarka chops and mixed grill. Good sevice and friendly atmosphere. Good Value for Money 😄💰

Excellent food friendly staff and great price for the quality.

It was amazing food😋I will oder again.

Beer ok but bit pricey,food cracking

The red lion has a family friendly atmosphere it's a really clean astablisment the food is all cooked fresh has a great menu and does take away but you have to pick up which is definitely worth the journey

Was there for a 40th birthday party. The food was amazing, and so was the service. If it was not for the party, the atmosphere would have been dull. There seemed to be a lot of junk just lingering around the hallway from the bar to the function room. The function room was amazingly decorated, but the bar seemed sabby and just thrown together. All in all, great food and good beer.

Good value mixed meat platter in pub surroundings. Pool table and football on TV. Families welcomed

Easily one of the most affordable and best mixed grills I’ve had in Wolverhampton. The pub is small and warm with a nice community spirit. Very friendly staff and top class food! Will definitely be returning

Our first visit to the Red Lion. Order our drinks at the bar then went to find a seat. Plenty of seating areas. Lots of choices on the menu. Order our food at the hatch and wasn't long before our food arrived. We both enjoyed our meals.

Food was excellent, very friendly and clean

Fantastic welcome and food at the Red Lion,been here a few times now and a well and truly traditional pub. Highly recommended by me

Nice little pub I only went to play pool there but a few people were eating and not one of them complained the food looked very nice ...

Our 2nd visit & we all thoroughly enjoyed the food again, great menu with plenty of choice & the chef & his wife are so friendly along with the bar staff. We're looking forward to going again!

Amazing food and drinks. This family run pub has to be one of the best pubs we have been to. The atmosphere and customer service is the best. The mixed grills are a MUST and the bar staff are very efficient and attentive. Our new weekly spot 💯

Great place proper Indian food friendly owners ,nice clean place cheap beer covid comlant

Top pub, top food and a great landlord.

Whether I eat on site or have a takeaway the food never fails. I have eaten in many places and have to say this is one of the best. The tandoori fish I had today was amazing and succulent.

Really good place to have great food and a drink the staff are great and helpful

Top class curry on a Tuesday happy hour

Bang on food and plenty of it would recomend

Family of 4 went here at 6pm for a meal. Staff were friendly and food part is run separately from the pub. We had 4 great meals, lamb saag was £7, regular mixed grill £8, large mixed grill £12, kebab wrap £5, naam bread £1! Great value, all the meat was cooked to perfection with large portions. Will return but maybe eat in the extension at the back of the pub as when we left the pub was getting rather busy.

Great boozer, good food, good beer, football shown, really friendly

The Red Lion (on the corner of Cable Street & Bilston Road) is an excellent pub! A family owned and run proper pub, rare to find these days, great beer, lovely food, and the Tuesday deal of home cooked curry & rice, with a pint, for £5.99 is without doubt the best value in not just Wolverhampton, but the country I would say! The family recipe is many years old and secret, for a very good reason! It's awesome! Try it!

Friendly. Good value. Do a great mixed grill.

First class Indian and far Eastern food. Highly recommended and I'm fussy!

Visited many times playing in the pool league, never dissapointed. Really tasty food, chef really appreciates you enjoying his 'trade', well done to all envolved.

I love this pub, great food good beer very reasonable priced.

Superb food. Friendly staff. Great boozer.

Got a takeout from there, just finished eating not bad at all, very good value when compared to similar places locally ,very pleased 😀

The best pub ever👌🏽😎great food😁 👍🏽

Old bar has not changed much over the years is very dark inside and a bit of a maze. Feels like your walking into a house with the layout at the front entrance.

Good friendly place, good food and drink great value for money.

Meaning to come in,just been passing by for the last 7 years,so made time on Saturday m,me and my mate,nice very clean place,nice friendly staff,we ordered lamb chops Punjabi style come up trumps,chicken pakora boating,and finally the meat pizza AMAZING,a Must,on top of that the owner what bloke RAKS,great hospitality and respect,I will be back thank you,for a great evening

Decent food for kids event. Little bit of a maze layout, but staff are friendly amd the beer is definitely chilled.

Was nice but to many televisions with to much sports on them, needs some music rather than all sport,, everyone is not sport people,I go out to get away from the television,,

We visited Red Lion Bilston Road on a Saturday for a friends family party, we enjoyed a fantastic 3 course buffet and the staff were all great, we will be back for a meal soon.

Booked the function room at this place for my parents bday party. I can't have asked for a better venue. The owner was amazing! I didn't once hear no to any request, very accommodating and just very kind to everyone of our guests. Food was just lovely.. complements from all of our guests. Would highly recommend to everyone and will be back for our next event. THANK YOU!

Good food as always and staff are very friendly

Nice sitting area at the back with family food was nice

Super food,good atmosphere and great gaffer

The food here is much better than most of the wolverhampton dhesi style pubs everyone goes on about. Looks are a bit off putting but they have a half decent fuction room so you can take the family

Went for a meal was served fast meal was great

Great place family friendly good food 👌

A bit of a dingy place.. but lovely food very tasty.. will surely go back again. The owner was very friendly.. decent crowd too.

Recently came up to see friends in Wolverhampton and they took us to the red lion for dinner.. we had the mixed grill to start and the ordered a mixture of curry’s and sides.. the meal was lovely and reasonably priced.. definitely recommend this place for a nice meal and would return next time we visit.
