The Red Lion pub is a fantastic find. The owner is so friendly and welcoming, the food looks and tastes really good and they stock Powderkeg gluten free beer alongside beers from the brewery . This visit we had cheesy chips - best cheesy chips ever.

The building and the pub itself are really lovely. It has been so tastefully decorated and in keeping with where it is situated. There is a nice array of drinks, however what I found to be the biggest let down is the abrasive attitude of the publican and his partner. I think they have no idea of how to read people and from the moment I walked in I felt I was a burden to the publican, I hadn't even put my bag down and he was barking across the pub "what can I get you" - I hadn't even had a chance to look at what was on offer behind the bar. His wife was no better and all but chased out the man sitting at the table next to us as her dog did not agree with his. Some patrons who were late for a dinner reservation - by 12 minutes - also got a bit of a sarcastic response. It is such a pity as this is such a lovely pub but I have never felt so unwelcome - maybe it explains why it was quite empty compared to the two other pubs nearby.

"Absolutely fantastic experience at The Red Lion in Beaminster! The baked Camembert and battered mushrooms were delicious starters. The 10-inch pork sausage for the main course was incredible, and the knickerbocker glory for dessert was the perfect ending to a great meal. The atmosphere was lovely, and a big bonus was that our dog was welcomed with open arms. Highly recommend this place!"

Friendly landlord, but that's as good as it gets. Horrendous service, no customer focus, the Lady behind the bar made us feel we inconvenienced her by being there. Desperately needs staff that speak and make eye contact at least with customers.

Had a superb meal here today, beautifully prepared and presented by the landlord. The banter with him was first class which made us all laugh on a dull and damp day. There was four in our party, and the two who live fairly local will certainly return again, but our son and his wife, who live in London, will have to wait until they visit us again, hopefully in the Spring. To say that we were very impressed, is a comment we shall pass on to our friends, who we hope to bring with us next time we visit Beaminster.

Visiting Beaminster and wondering where to eat. One of our party was vegetarian and we liked the look of the posted menu. We made a good choice and were not disappointed. Two of our party of four had vegetable lasagne, one had venison and one lamb pie. All of us were very impressed with the main course and also with the excellent desserts. We were very well looked after and I can strongly recommend eating here and look forward to returning.

Great place for a meal at any time , specials to choose from as well as favourites. The food is always lovely and freshly cooked as well as being very reasonably priced. Easy to park and situated in a lovely small town which is full of surprises, packs a lot into a small area. Also they have an art gallery within the pub which has a selection of very reasonably priced art to suit all budgets and all from local artists. Always a great place to stop and have a meal.

This place was empty whereas the pub next doors was very busy. We decided to give this place a go, could it really be that bad....? Unfortunately, this place ain't good. Received the wrong food, ordered pulled pork burger as they said it was real pork and very popular. Got a ropey findus beef burger served instead, so politely mentioned this only to be told by the owner 'we don't have pulled pork burger on menu!' What?! Am I making it up then? 'Oooer, well there's some pork in that beef burger!' There was No sorry, no attempt to put it right no adjustment on bill (as findus burger is much cheaper), instead the owner blamed us. Albeit the sever/chef was polite, overall the service was completely atrocious, incompetent, dismissive and they just don't get it! Now I know why it was so empty. Shame as they are sat on a goldmine. Something very wrong here. Avoid for now.

After a long walk to beaminster, we had a wonderful lunch at the red lion. Delicious food, excellent service and to top it 2 courses for 15!? A bargain considering the quality of the food. Interior was comforting but not out-dated by any means. Can imagine it to be very cosy in the winter. Also a large garden which is a positive. Will definitely be returning if we are back in the area and also recommending to any family and friends!

Having been to the Red Lion in Beaminster a few times now I felt a need to write this review as the food has consistently been the highlight. This visit I had the cod & chips, the chef uses his own recipe for the batter,(tempura I think) adding of course the Palmers beer. Hubby had the Sea bass on a warm potato salad. Both dishes were perfectly executed. The landlord Brian is always pleased to see us and brought over a little treat for our four legged pouch which she gratefully received. Defiantly recommend the place for a bite to eat as the menu offers a great range to choose from. A great place to stop off for lunch on the way to the coast, or like us just a great place to go for lunch. Will defo have a glass of the NZ Marlborough wine next visit Brian!

We wanted to take friends out for lunch and Mum and I decided on getting away from Bridport and driving to The Red Lion. The menu has a variety of good pub food options, along with a specials board and a clever option of half price half portions for smaller appetites. There is a £15 two course lunch Wednesday to Saturday,…any starter and main or main and dessert, which we all opted for. Two of us ordered the homemade steak and ale pie….delicious short crust pastry, melt in the mouth beef along with veg, chips, mash or new potatoes, which was thoroughly enjoyed. The salmon from the specials board looked delicious glazed and sat upon fresh salad vegetables, a big hit. The fish and chips a pub favourite was probably the best fish I have eaten for a long time, perfect batter and fish succulent and moist, perfectly cooked and also came with tender baby peas. Our desserts were scrumptious…the knickerbocker glory’s were consumed with gusto. Treacle/golden syrup pudding was my favourite and the apple crumble delicious too, served very hot , with crunchy crumble and hot custard served separately in a jug….a lovely touch….I always prefer custard, sauces and gravy served separately, well done chef, it was all perfect. We were looked after very well by Brian and the chef, the food was excellent and we will be back and telling friends what a wonderful meal there is to be had at The Red Lion. Your hospitality and passion for your amazing pub is a credit to you. Thank you.

Had a lovely family dinner here. Pub was quiet, it was midweek. Landlord was friendly and helpful and had a good sense of humour which always helps. Good menu, lots of choices. All the meals we chose were excellent. Puds were a slight let down, not so much for the quality as the price, we felt the main in courses were better value than the desserts. Desserts were brought out by the chef who was also nice and friendly. We will eat here again and recommend to friends locally.

Also an Art Gallery in the skittle alley which is well worth a visit on its own.

Our children had the half size portions which they liked, our eldest very rarely finishes a Sunday roast but said it was lovely and ate the lot! The staff were very friendly and accommodating and were able to fit us in at short notice. I would highly recommend this pub for a family lunch/Sunday roast.

They opened late today. When I mentioned i didn't bang the door. One of the landlords said if u bang the door I will bang your head. Not a way to talk to a customer and I took it as a threat. And left as he was very aggressive I won't drink there again while he's running the pub. Luckily lots of other nice pubs in lyme regis to go to
