Red Lion is an amazing and traditional English pub. You have about 8 rooms located on top of the bar and the room I was given was absolutely fantastic. The receptionist was clear and really helpful, he explained and showed everything that was needed. The location in itself was amazing, would definitely recommend.

I would never have wanted to come to this city, but there is a motorcycle meeting here, so I needed somewhere to stay. The Redline was a bit difficult to get used to at first. The room is right on the street, but can be reached from the back via a detour of around 50 m. There is also free parking there if you can find it. The landlord was very accommodating and showed me to my room, even though, as I said, it was quite a journey to get there. I've gotten used to it and find it quite acceptable. The room is perfect for one person with its own clean wet room. The bed (approx. 1.20 m) can also be used for a short time by two people. I like it a little wider, but it would work. No breakfast is offered on site, but there is a box with some cereal. The stocked refrigerator offers milk, apple juice and fruit juice as well as yogurt. I'm pretty happy. If you are looking for a restaurant, you can visit the Brown Cow, about a 5-minute walk away. The food is English, breakfast is also offered from 10:00 a.m., very rich and fairly priced. It was also recommended by my host and I can recommend it to others.

The quality of the food has gone up and down at the Red Lion over the years - it is on the up at the moment. My daughter had scallops to start and these were the highlight of the meal - beautifully cooked and presented well. Her Lamb Shank main was also excellent with beautifully creamy mashed potato. My Belly Pork was delicious but I was not keen on the sides it came with (just personal taste). Very pleasant waiting and bar staff. Very enjoyable evening.

Booked a table in the pub itself as we like the lively atmosphere. We had the scampi in a basket which was delicious, plenty of juicy scampi, great chips and a nice salad. The tartare sauce was very good, not sure if it's home made, but if not it is a good quality ready made. Service was good too. Didn't have puds, but the rhubard and ginger gin served with appletize went down a treat, as did the bottle if wine. Lovely.

To start with, there's nowhere to park. The two people behind the bar seemed to be on another planet. Had to ask for a beer, a wine and a coke three times before they understood. My partner had to send back dirty cutlery twice (!) plus the table wasn't clean.When the roasts came, the waitress passed me a plate which nearly caused third degree burns. Having said that the meals were ok apart from the roast potatoes which were obviously reheated from earlier and rock hard. also the gents' toilet was disgusting. Won't be going again!

We booked in for a birthday meal for 5 people sat down at 4.30 ordered our meals, at 5.15 two meals appeared by the time these were nearly finished eating two other meals came and the fifth one hadn't been written down on the order surprisingly this followed quite quickly. The roast potatoes were hard as were the parsnips the sausage tasteless and very dry and burnt we all were extremely disappointed at the quality of food and the service as we had high hopes and had been looking forward to it for a few weeks. After we complained the lady discounted one meal,two of the meals had hardly been touched because of the very low quality we all came away feeling very disheartened as it wasn't worth the money we had paid will NOT be going again.

We've visited a few times recently for food, but never on a Sunday for the roast. We'd heard nothing but great reviews so thought we'd try it out. It was hands down the best roast my mum and I have had in a very long time. I went for the pork which was cooked to perfection and tender, my mum had the beef which she asked for pink if possible. The beef was extremely succulent! The vegetables (which consisted of carrots cooked in honey, parsnips and various greens) were incredibly tasty. We weren't planning on having desserts until the waitress informed us they had English Lakes thunder and lightning ice cream! The bill came to just under £40 with drinks included, cannot complain at all. The pub itself is quaint, welcoming and warm from the great log burner they have lit. Overall a perfect place to spend a dismal Sunday afternoon.

It was really busy for a mid-week, bar man was very friendly and the log burner was lit and lovely and warm. My husband had the venison sausages off the specials board and I had gammon. True to form the food was spot on, the gammon was huge, I didn't try my husbands sausages as I don't like venison but he thoroughly enjoyed them. For a spur of the moment meal without the kids it was a really lovely relaxing experience the young girl waitress was very friendly and we will definitely recommend and return.

Second visit here where some of the menu choices were not available...pretty rich at an early sitting. The food we did order was not much to boast about, very run of the mill and not worth the ticket price, especially my friend's korma curry which we had to send back because it tasted bitter and sour. The chef did admit that the curry had not been prepared correctly and made a replacement dish of carbonara, but as you can imagine our friend had to sit without food whilst she waited for her new dish, which I might add was very runny and tasteless. It would have been nice if we were offered a free bottle of wine or not charged for the carbonara, but alas the full price was charged. Along with a log burner that gave out no heat and a room in which we had to keep our coats on- I can honestly say that we will not be visiting here again.

I'd like to start this review by saying how fantastic our waitress was here - I didn't get her name but she was so lovely with the kids and really made the meal personal for me. Drinks are ordered at the bar .. But it's a pub so expected. The food was ok! Kids meals were good value, they got a lot and enjoyed it. I had Stilton mushrooms for starter - they were ok but not enough Stilton for me and the bread was like a doorstop. Main I had beef madras which was actually quite nice, not something I would normally order in a pub but there was some very fatty meat in there. If the meat had been good it would have been a pretty prefect dish. Eton mess for dessert .. Yummy! Would I go for a special occasion ... Probably not but if you are in the village and need some food it's a good choice, with huge portions.

We went at 5pm to get the Early Menu advertised on the front page of their website. When we got there we were told that the restaurant Hartley's down the road (who provide the food for the pub) had this menu and not the pub. To be fair, the lady offered us to try and book there but to be honest it is the owners or whoever sorts the website was taking the mickey. So I won't be going to Hartley's in Dalton again- if they are trying to franchise stuff out all over Furness, price properly across the board- it's sharp practice. As to the food, very nice, decent portions, beer was excellent and service was good. Just check which menu first by ringing.

I visited the restaurant a few weeks ago with my partner after hearing fantastic reciews. We arrived and were seated in the back room which was lovely and quaint. We both had wild mushrooms to start which wernt great, they were stringy and chewy and there was a certian flavour that was way too overpowering to the point it was sickly, it was served on a thick bread which didnt look burnt but even our steak knifes wouldnt cur through it it was that crispy. For mains we wern't exactly pushed for choice, there wasn't a great variety and had ran out of certian things even though it was only 7.30. I choose pork belly with glazed phesant and sautéd potatoes, my partner choose the mixed grill. I had one taste of each thing on my plate and had to stop, not one thing on my plate was eidible, either the mushroom starter had tainted my taste buds or it was realy just not good, the pork belly was just bland and the phesant flavourless in contrast to the potatoes which were overbearing. My partner isn't fussy at all and never complains about food but even he said his mixed grill wasnt anything to shout about, he even left some, which never ever happens. On the good side the waitress we had was lovely. Overall very dissapointed after hearing such good reviews and looking forward to a nice meal but was sadly unimpressed. Nothing was offered after we stated the meals were not okay. My meal came about 5 minutes after my partners which ment when mine came he was asked about his meal but they never returned to ask if my meal was okay untill my partner finished his and they saw I hadnt touched my food. A shame it was so bad when so many people have such good things to say.

I drive past the Red Lion often and from the outside it looks nothing special. My sister's birthday meal for ten was being held there and I wasn't sure what to expect. Once inside there was great, relaxed styling and we were made to feel at home straightaway. The restaurant section of the pub is tucked away and again styled in a relaxed but thoughtful way... including sprigs of flowers on all the tables. The food was excellent.... wonderful selection of breads and everyone happy with the mains....I was delighted with the great bowl of healthy, perfectly cooked greens that I ordered as a side (actually enough for three!), which included asparagus! Lovely evening, perfect for a family celebration.... Thank you!

We visited on a Saturday in Feb but not having booked a table the restaurant was full. We said we didn't mind a wait and would eat in the bar area. The staff were helpful and friendly and kept us informed of waiting times. The food was very good with good sized portions.

We went as a Birthday meal. The Main Courses were dreadful. We ordered the Chicken Dijon and Beef Lasagna. The chicken was chewy and the the sauce was completely bland. The chips and side vegetables were equally bland. As was the Lasagna. The worse meals we ever had and we returned them because they were so bad. The Village Inn was once a place of the highest standards and quality food. I regret that it no longer is. Very disappointing and truly sad to see.

I hadn't prebooked a room but one was available, and I was so glad! My visit to Barrow to help a family member with a move was extremely stressful! My room was warm, comfortable and the shower was fab! Breakfast was perfect too! A big thank you to Rick and Jackie! You went out of your way to help me and it is very much appreciated. I will be back!

Fantastic establishment, me and my family go all the time and the hard work the team are putting in really shows. The pub has gone from strength to strength over the last 18 months
