The Red Lion in Bradford - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Great food & drinks with friends - lovely atmosphere and great table service from Jake especially - highly recommend esp the burgers

Went for a meal as part of a group of ten, and we were able to make choices across three different menus. The customer service was excellent from the minute we arrived. The food was lovely and served promptly. The chef and the girl who...

Great food and fantastic staff! The two young brothers, I think they’re twins, that run the pub are just a bundle of joy to have running a place like the Red Lion. The Sunday roast we had was fantastic. Great to have sport in the...

What a gem of a pub 💎 Dined here for the first time yesterday. Food is delicious, staff are friendly & very accommodating.. will definitely be back!

Amazing pub, very friendly staff with wonderful food. ‘You can’t put a price on good people’ much recommend

Disappointed Waited over 45minutes for food despite being the only ones there. Paid £9 for a ‘chicken salad’ however when it came out it was simply lettuce with three snippets of chicken- not what we expected it to be at all. We also ordered a...

Having opened following its refurbishment, this place is clean, friendly and it serves good food. But it's also worth popping in at quieter times just for a coffee, and there is plenty of space to sit outside when the weather is good. Great for families,...

Went about 1.30 and was told that they weren't taking requests until 2.30pm - didn't feel very organised to me. We had a drink and left.

The pub is superb with good beer and friendly staff, but the food we had mid-week was all bought-in food-service stuff with poor quality frozen chips and veg. Really disappointing for a pub like this in a nice village. You can get this standard of...

Lovely Sunday lunch at the red lion with attentive staff, good service and well cooked food. My family loved the meat and this was served with especially good roast potatoes.

Lovely old pub, great atmosphere and the service is exemplary. Food is fresh and beautifully presented. Great range of wines and beers at good prices. Staff are very friendly and personal. Would definitely return.

Went for Sunday lunch. Waited a long time for food. They had run out of beef by 1.0pm. Meat and veg good but the roasts and Yorkshire’s were pre-fab. Says it comes with mash but none of that either. Never asked if we wanted starters....

We were wanting a quiet spot to eat for our meal as two of our party are deaf .We found the perfect corner in the nicely decorated restaurant and we could chat in a relaxing manner. There was plenty of choice on the menu .We...

As a proper regular of this establishment we had no hesitation in taking 13 in for our Christmas Day meal.We were not disappointed. With Paul manning the guns front of house and doing a sensational job his brother Stuart was ripping it up in the...

Great pub to eat in with friends or family or there is a tap room with sports tv to go in with Your pals Dog friendly and youar Made to feel at home A Grea ttraditional good value pub !!

We went to the newly refurbished pub and were looking foward to our Christmas eve meal. The starters we're ok and the pudding but the mains shocking. Burnt over salted and meat that was on the turn,rubbish service. Will not be returning,even though we are...

My husband and I had a super meal here last week. We enjoyed a starter and main each and shared a pudding.the staff were very attentive and helpful. The evening was very pleasant and the food extremely good- we have booked for Christmas Eve with...

23 of us booked the function room for our Christmas lunch. The team at the Red Lion had gone to great lengths to set the room out in a festive manner. The attention to detail and the service provided was exceptional. The food was very...

Had friends up from London and we all decided to have lunch at the Red Lion , The pub itself has recently been refurbished to a very high standard but the food wasn’t up to much . I ordered the traditional Sunday lunch and the...

Decided to drop in for lunch. Sat in what we were told was “geriatric corner” which actually was entertaining. Both had garlic mushrooms for a starter which choice of creamy or normal - both were good and if you like creamy food can highly recommend...

We enjoyed the food here - we were put in the side room as the rest of the venue was super busy. It was nice and quiet and we could chat with our party. The staff were friendly and helpful.

We walked a couple of miles and called in without a booking, and whilst it was very busy we were made most welcome and a table for 4 was found for us. We all had a starter and roast beef lunch and were more than...

Visited her for lunch , service was good , all staff very friendly and helpful . Unfortunately we were all disappointed with the food . Two of our party had roast beef dinner , if you like your beef very rare then thus is the...

The food is excellent. I loved the steak and ale pie. We were made to feel as this was our local. The owner is charming. But the best is the bartender and his twin in the kitchen. What a comedy duo. A must visit place.

I have been here 2/3 times this summer. The staff are friendly and helpful and the food good. They made a mistake with our order but put it right straight away, with a smile, and a free pudding. I will definitely go back

Last night I organised a birthday party for my wife at the Red Lions. Food, room and organisation couldn't be faulted. Great food and at a reasonable price. Easy to organise and co-ordinate with also. Highly recommended.

Was out with friends for a trip and was recommended this pub in the area, atmosphere was kicking and service was excellent, good for meet ups.

Great venue for group meal. Spacious and very efficient service from Danny who ensured our party of 8 had all they required re food and drink. A varied chive of meals on offer and despite all ordering different meals they came together, well presented and...

We popped in for a late lunch and had a super welcome. They have a new menu and it is outstanding. £11.95 for 2 courses. I had the best beer battered haddock ever and himself had a bacon chop. All was beautifully presented and tasted...

We often stroll over here from the neighbouring village,Menston, to enjoy the outside patio area for a pint but we decided to try the food last week and we are very glad we did! Hopefully the pictures do it all justice but if not I...

If you have not had Sunday lunch at The Red Lion then you are missing out. Great choice of starters cooked and presented to perfection. The choice of mains is great, the beef was cooked to perfection, the Yorkshire puddings was simply brilliant. Best Sunday...

Reasonable price, decent size portions, well cooked meat and properly cooked veg. I couldn't fault it. Kids were well catered for and the puds where amazing

Had another lovely meal, the food is always fabulous however it is Stuart and Paul who make this place they always have a smile and a funny word for everyone. Keep up the great work lads

Love this place!! If you want to enjoy a chilled glass of wine, a decent pint or choose to sample a G&T from their extensive selection, then this is the place for you - even FIZZ FRIDAY 🍾🍾. The staff always make you feel welcome,...

Sat outside in end. I know football is on with the world cup but the 'banter' was certainly flying. Very poor range of 'diet' drinks. Shame its in the heart of a really nice village. Has lots of potential, just needs realising

Well I’ve said this all before but if something’s good it’s worth shouting about! Fathers Day booking. Table booked for 5pm for 4 adults, 1 child and our baby boy. This pub has had its ups and downs over the years but I think it’s...

Up until the refit the pub seemed to be enjoying success with good beer and wine with the food also being excellent.The staff have also been a pleasure always offering a warm greeting and service to match. The pub was recently closed for a supposed...

Service, food and drink all deserve 5 stars. Following the refit, the Red Lion is a smart and modern environment that still tips a nod to the buildings classical age. The food was served politely and hot, a challenge these days, tasted fantastic. Shame no...

Well where do you start with this place? Its been run like the jolly roger over the years with a turn over of staff worse than Leeds United. But wait there is a shining light that has appeared in the shape of two fine young...

We arrived without a booking, we required a table for 6. Stuart and the team quickly rearranged things and had our table ready on 10 minutes. The Sunday Lunch menu was available. The 2 kids had their sausage and mash at the same time as...

Excellent new menu. Good food with excellent staff. Love coming here Excellent value for quality food and large portions

Stopped by on the off chance after visiting some relatives. Lovely lunch. Staff were very friendly and welcoming. Food was very tasty and excellent quality. Super value for money and so glad we stopped. Would highly recommend.

Booked for Christmas dinner for four people including my 95 year old father in law. Wasn't sure what to expect due to poor experience in the past but as it has changed hands we thought we'd give it a try. Well I've got to say...

Absolute fantastic service got 9 of us in at last minute after being let down by red lion in skipton. Food fabulous and good price.

We booked again with our friends we have eaten here a few times now,we are always satisfied With our meals they are always well presented ,and always hot,the staff are great ,

Went to Red Lion for Friday tea on a spur of the moment decision. Don’t be fooled by the tables having reserved signs on them - they do this to keep the tables clear from people just there for a drink. Food was as expected...

This pub is by far the best in the village, it has come on leaps and bounds in the last year. The food really is good, we have eaten here a few times now and took friends for dinner who were very impressed. The steak...

Went to Red Lion for Sunday lunch to celebrate father in law's birthday. Food was as expected - good quality pub food. Service was the differentiator - this was excellent with one of the staff knowing my father in law and taking the time to...

Had drinks and a meal with friends here on Saturday, we used to live in the village a year ago and the place was rubbish! Never any competent staff on, poor selection of drinks etc. Now, well just wow! fantastic friendly staff, excellent service and...

This is a well run and well staffed pub. Great offer of quality wines, spirits, beers and ales. Introduced to rhubarb gin which has become a favourite. Cocktail menu also available. A good food offering with a varied menu. Sunday lunch is also provided and...

The steak and ale pie was absolutely delicious, the chips and veg excellent. Far exceeded expectations and fairly priced. Also very friendly staff. We will definitely return.

Excellent food, great choice of gluten free starters and mains. Excellent service. New Management has made such a positive difference and the staff are so attentive

First time we have been and it was really really good. Nice straightforward menu with food of really high standard. Well cooked well, presented, well done

This pub has gone through a bad patch but is now under new management - and what a difference this has made! We were a party of four who had dinner. The menu was balanced and offered a good selection at sensible prices. I had...

We enjoyed a very good value and tasty lunch here last week. The service was very friendly, welcoming and efficient. Will definitely visit again.

Excellent lunch at great value - lovely food and very friendly service and welcome. Can certainly recommend

Awesome Sunday lunch, wide range of local ales and wine to choose from. The menu was simple, filled with a selection of British pub classics with the chef's individual stamp on each we tasted. The Sunday roast is competition against the best in the area....

The food and service was outstanding. We were 3 generations of ladies doing lunch and we all really enjoyed our visit, thank you

Went for an impromptu birthday meal with my Mum and my daughter - and we were delighted to find the Red Lion very welcoming and serving really nice food. The staff were lovely (especially the lady who served us throughout) - and deserve great credit...

We had an amazing time on Friday 20th April. The food was excellent and the staff where really friendly and attentive.

Best food I've had in the village since moving here some 5 years ago. New chefs I hear. Must retain them and develop premises around them. If they lose them, back to the drawing board. Watch this space.

Event.y reopened with new management, and now started serving food last week. Great start. A welcome at the bar, a welcome when ordering, and good plates of food from mostly local suppliers done justice by the chef and team. Pleased with the tempura batter on...

We have waited a long time for someone to take over this pub and make it work. Thanks to all the bar and kitchen staff for a great night. Food is delicious and all the staff are really friendly. Let's hope this is the sign...

Cost £24 for a pint of Landlord, a bottle of Pinot Grigio, and 3 packets of crisps! Pleasant sat in the beer garden at the front of the pub, though some of the wooden tables are falling apart.

Just visited this pub as under new management. Lovely and busy with families enjoying the sunshine outside. Nice hand pulled pint; pork scratching went down very well!! Will be doing food soon. Landlady and others all very welcoming, will definitely visit again :).

Called in for a beer, ended getting a taxi home to ilkley four hours later, All in all it's a good pub with good people both sides of the bar, will call in again soon,

Called in for a bar meal on returning home and was very pleasantly surprised by both the decor and quality of the food!had a couple of pints of Landlord which was just perfect and ordered peppered steak sandwiches served with chips and salad and in...

We visited on Friday evening. It was busy but we still managed to get a table for 5. The kids menu was pretty regulation, however their potion sizes were good. The food was very tasty. I had the steak pie, which was fantastic. Deep filled...

Visited the red lion on recommendations, my husband and i both had the gammon which was lovely the pub wasnt very full but we did go in early, nice clean pub

Visited here with the girlfriend recently and really enjoyed it.Food is good. Plenty of choice but still a somewhat classic pub menu. Value for money is brilliant.Drinks wise the beers are well looked after. Not a vast array of ales but I'd rather quality over quantity any time - i think the manager mentioned they often change 1 or 2 of them regularly as well.Atmosphere and service wise is great here. The manager with the beard was a gent, and looked after us really well - think my girlfriend took a liking too him so ladies get yourself down there!The pub was a little quiet but it's a pretty big place with the two (arguably 3 rooms) and it was a midweek afternoon so as expected.Overall, just a classic local pub doing a great job. Will be back when next in Burley.

Visited today with good friends had a really fulfilling meal three courses for £14.99. Compliments to the chef a. Ndnd serviStuar

Not sure what the person below is on about I drink in this place regulary and completely disagree - this pub is the best one in the village. The staff are all friendly and always are and that is every single one of them. I...

Saw a really bad review and thought it harsh. Staff tonight were courteous and attentive. I agree they were busy but it can be a hectic village pub as well as a restaurant and in those sort of relaxed hillside surroundings, why hurry? Before arrival...

One thing I have to say about this place is its a complete and utter waste of time.Don't get me started on the staff, they are some of the rudest and most arrogant people I have ever met in my entire life. They do not care about what goes on, if they do something wrong they will not admit it.The food is absolutely appalling it is horrible nasty food which I will never eat again and the prices of them is ridiculous.it is such a nice looking pub with a great location but I have to give it credit for the stomp here on a warm sunny day, it is a great time to have a dream with friends etc.One more thing to add they should really look into the backgrounds of some of there staff before employing them.

Spacious parking. Friendly staff. Selection of beers to choose from. Never ending menu to choose meal from. Staff polite amd courteous. Hard to fault anything

Had Sunday lunch here. Food was delicious served warm and with a smile. Specials board we choose from again food great no complaints. Try the pate it's delicious and the roast beef is to die for.

Went here on Sunday. Probably would not have been tempted but had a Pulse voucher which I bought online. Was nicely surprised. Great menu with several items which whet my appetite. Ended up going for a burger with everyone else having the same, scampi or...

Met up with friends for a few drinks and a quick lunch. Had thecold meat platter with bread and cheese. No complaints and quite filling. The others had your typical fish & chips and bangers & mash. All good portions. We sat outside due to...

We are locals and eat here regularly for lunch, often choosing the amazing Steak & Ale pie, however I decided to choose the Mousaka with Dressed Leaf & Garlic Toast from the Specials Board, costing a whopping £11.95 What arrived was a very average microwaved...

We were in a party of six for lunch. The pub offers a good choice of meals for seven pounds before seven o'clock in the evening. Or, alternatively, there was an OAP lunch menu - also offering a good choice of two courses for only...

It has been quite a while since we visited this pub and the last time we were not impressed. Just recently we called in as we had heard they had a new menu, we were not disappointed, there was a good choice of food and...

We used to eat regularly at here but after one disappointing meal we have given it a wide berth for a while but having ate there on Saturday night this week its obvious we made an error of judgement and shouldnt have given up on...

My fiance and I took my Grandmother to this pub for an early evening meal. We have been here on many occasions as she lives in the village. This time we all ordered both starters and main courses. The menu has changed quite drastically and...

We had our evening meal here and really enjoyed it! Really nice meal, good timely service , well priced....very nice evening had all round!

This use to be a good village pub with reliably good food, particulary when Mick was the chef. It is now a pub with no atmosphere and very poor food. We will not be eating here again.

I was pleasantly surprised by the Sunday lunch here, as I was half expecting a 'restaurant chain' menu. Although what we found was an individual, locally sourced menu. I had bangers and mash and my other half had Sunday lunch. The sausages were fantastic! Really...

The pub was deserted so lacked any atmosphere. Piped music was, I suppose, an attempt at creating an ambience, but it sadly failed. Despite being almost empty, so very little to do for staff, every table had crumbs on it. There was no cutlery on...

Thank you to The Red Lion for helping to make my husband's birthday a success. The food was excellent. Whitebait very fresh, chorizo stack yummy, mushrooms to die for in lovely creamy sauce, sausage ( from a local butcher ) the best I've tasted, pie...

sat down, ordres a drink at bar, the girl was lovely, brought our drinks and menus, we waited a while to order, i went to the bar, to be told by another girl that i had to order at the bar to then have her...

Food was terrible. It was cold or burnt we all had disgusting meals. Service was horrendous. No apologises for wrong food been served or for burnt or cold food. Locals were unfriendly & rude. & so was bar staff. Never go again.

I called in here today and ordered 2 drinks. A few minutes later, a local came in and ordered the same drink, but was charged 50p a pint less! When I queried this at the bar, the young bar tender said it was because it...

Despite a large sign outside "Carvery 12 to 4pm" and details on the website, there was in fact no carvery today Sunday 3rd August, nor did the staff appear to be particularly bothered about this. My view is that they should not advertise a carvery...

Worst experience ever! Food was terrible, I'd of rather eaten at a fast food place. The price for it? A joke. Oh and 'chips' aren't really chips, they are potato wedges. For families, a little tip, they have highchairs but no places to change little...

It's taken my wife and I a few visits before I took to writing this review. As we live so close to the red lion and enjoy sitting in the wonderful front beer garden watching the world go by its vet frustrating that this perfectly...

.....then goodness knows what the remaining food must be like. We live in this village and have not frequented this pub since the Rentons left a couple of years ago. All we wanted today was a sandwich. I asked for a menu. More were being...

Ordered 3 roast dinners 27/6/2014,the pub was almost empty so I should have known what it would be like.The roast dinners were just as you would get in a frozen dinner from Iceland.The meat was wafer thin and fatty,3 potatoes,few carrots and a dry yorkshire...

Called on Easter Sunday to have a light lunch, sat outside to enjoy the sunshine very pleasant We had the homemade soup and lovely fresh sandwich with home made chips all was very good , Very good service the waitress very polite

We pre booked a large table for about 18 of us. It's was a very special occasion as my best friend was getting married the following day. We went through into a private dining room with one big table. The table was not set, no...

We live in the village and so we popped in here for a weekday lunch for the first time since we moved here last June. Service was very fast. They have some really nice local ales too. We ordered two hot sandwiches which were on...

Nice pint and one of the best sunday lunches we have eaten in a long time, amazing yorkshires you can tell they are homemade, beef cooked perfect and roasties naughty but nice, this will now be one of our regular sunday haunts. The bar was...
