The Red Lion Bar&Grill in Shropshire

We visited here for my partners birthday meal as his parents are local to the village. The staff were friendly and food was very good. We have been here before and always enjoyed it. The restaurant has a large menu with lots of options for nibbles, starters, mains, grill menu and chef specials. The price was reasonable to the quality of the food and we will more than likely be back. Photos of starter and mains

Excellent menu choices. Staff very helpful and service was good too. Lovely spacious dining area and welcoming bar with a lovely log burner.

Booked for Sunday lunch for 3 all the 3 courses were tasty good portions and well presented. Atmosphere was friendly and staff were really helpful. Will be visiting again soon. Thank you

We haven't dined here in a number of years...just haven't gotten around to it but dear friends wanted to treat us today and so the Red Lion was their choice. Am so glad we were lucky enough to have gone again--at long last! We had a wonderful server...she was 100% knowledgeable of what was on the menu and her recommendations were spot on. Honestly, the Fish & Chips were amazing...one of the best. Our one friend thoroughly enjoyed the Egg & Gammon. The Eton Mess was delicious but just not enough of it! We lingered over our meal and simply had a wonderful time from top to bottom!!

This is one of my favourite local restaurants, the menu has a wide variety, good portion size and value for money. All staff are friendly, attentive and polite. A special thankyou, to Holly and Sophie for always being so happy and welcoming. This restaurant tends to get busy so booking is recommended, they do a lovely steak and a delicious roast dinner. If you are in the area this is a hidden gem.

Lovely friendly welcome after a long drive and a cancellation at the place we were due to eat put us at ease. Nice range of beers snd a small but interesting menu. The food was stunning. Great flavours and textures the kitchen certainly know what they are doing. This is all topped off by great service. Go and eat there you will not be disappointed.

A group of 20 family and friends attended for a surprise birthday party - the service was second to none. Brilliant venue and great food. A big, big thank you to everyone for making this so special

We visited for Sunday Lunch and we weren't disappointed! Food, service and atmosphere were all excellent! Roast turkey, pork and beef were selected on our table, together with an extra of cauliflower cheese! We literally struggled to finish our meals but didn't want leave anything. Puds were good too. If you fancy a ride out to north Shropshire for lunch, prebook the Red Lion, you won't be disappointed! Good value too!

Family of seven… all catered for with excellent service. Wide choice on the menu and a lovely friendly environment. Beautiful building and did I mention the choice of real ales?!

We are regular visitors to the Red Lion in Myddle. We return every time because the food and service is second to none. We always receive a warm welcome and we know how hard Pete and Jackie and staff work to make sure that their guests are not disappointed. If you fancy a meal out around Shrewsbury (lunch or dinner) then look no further than the Red Lion. You won’t regret it.

Really excellent food at a good price and with super friendly service We ordered from the lunch menu which was smaller but two courses was ample

Ate here twice while staying in the area and cannot fault it. Quality food, good choice & portions & excellent value. Different staff on both nights but all were very friendly and efficient. Highly recommend.

Had a family lunch on Mother's day. Service was excellent and efficient and staff friendly and welcoming. We had a variety of dishes and all were generous and delicious. Look forward to coming back soon!

Our welcome was genuine, the pub was beautifully presented and there was a nice vibe. We enjoyed superb food, which you could tell was all home cooked. The waitresses were polite, efficient and ready to help. The shin of beef was stunning, as were the burgers. Desserts were plentiful and generous portions. The sticky toffee and triple chocolate brownie were delicious. What a fantastic evening. Thank you all.

A group of friends, 6 of us met at this lovely place at lunchtime today. Every one of the party said just how good their meals were. My own, the Sea Bass, was superb. All in all a lovely meal enjoyed by all of us. Thank you

Myself and my fiancé came to lunch here on 5th February. The service was impeccable from the bar to the waiting staff. We had starters and mains with some nibbles. Everything was beautifully presented and tasted absolutely amazing. Having four children, we don’t get out much and I can honestly say that this is the best meal out we have had for years. Nice quiet Monday lunch , child free in a lovely setting. Absolute bliss. Thank you so much

Called for lunch with my Mother. We had the two course for £15. Both really enjoyed it! Tasty and hot! Lovely staff and a really clean and nicely decorated restaurant. We will be back!

Our waitress Seren was lovely, polite, and accommodating and extremely helpful. The food was delicious. The chairs are so comfortable.

Lovely atmosphere, good parking and friendly helpful staff perfect start to a great evening with excellent food and beer pies to die for and a good curry

My visit to the lion was a wonderful relaxing and very pleasurable experience. From the moment we walked in the door the atmosphere, service and quality of food was next to none. We had two courses both of which were presented beautifully and the taste and flavours were outstanding. All the staff were friendly and attentive ensuring we had everything we wanted and nothing was too much trouble. The owner Jacqui checked on us a few times and even though the restaurant was busy, she made the time to have a chat with us at the end of our meal. The price was very reasonable and within what to expect for such great food and service. I would recommend if your looking for that somewhere to have a special celebration meal or just a relaxed everyday event, then the Red Lion is the place to go. I will certainly be returning when I next visit from Devon.

Three of us went for dinner on our last night of our narrow boat trip. It was excellent value, the staff were very attentive and the drinks realistically priced. They have an 'over 60's' menu which gives 2 courses for £12 and the food was very good. I highly recommend it.

What a lovely family celebration we had at the Red Lion. There were 14 of us and had the room upstairs which is very nice. The service from the staff was first class and we were incredibly well looked after. The food was perfect and the whole experience was brilliant. Highly recommended for special occasions.

We are so lucky to have this pub as our local. Consistently great food, wonderful service and always, always a warm welcome. We recommend the steak, burgers, chicken with Shropshire Blue cheese (well, all of it really!!) If you have room left, the desserts are sublime too.

As a vegan it can be challenging to get a decent food option on some restaurant menus but never have I seen such a poor offering for a meal before. A warm Mediterranean salad consisted of a lettuce and badly chopped red onion, and some sort of dressing; not even an olive or tomato to be seen.Just appalling, not filling, not nutritionally balanced and certainly nothing like a colourful Mediterranean salad and based on the ingredients ridiculously expensive. The dish so lacked any thought and culinary expertise and truly amazing that it could be served as a meal. Very disappointed

The Red Lion has been recently modernised but tastefully. The modern amenities, such as the toilets, have not upset the rural charm of this old pub. We had not visited before but are looking at a number of venues to take our daughter and son for lunch when they come over from Australia in September. So far, The Red Lion is top of the list. The staff are friendly and helpful greeting my wife and I warmly as we entered the door. We opted to eat in the bar rather than the dining room. My wife had the chicken curry and declared it delicious. I had Cajun Chickenburger with hand cut chips and it was also delicious . We followed these with chocolate ice cream and triple chocolate brownie. There are equally delicious. We have two very minor gripes. We asked for water with our meal but it did not appear. We ordered a second round of drinks with our meals but they did not arrive. We were halfway through eating before I had to go and ask for them. These notwithstanding the whole visit was enjoyable.

Great place to eat, Great food. Reasonably priced with attentive friendly staff. Had a wonderful family meal. Food is always excellent. Great atmosphere in the bar. Pete, Jaqui and staff are always welcoming.

I visited the pub with my husband who is paraplegic and a good friend who had recently lost his wife. When I called to book the lovely lady who took my booking asked if we would mind sitting in the bar area, as they had...

We booked in advance and on arrival we’re taken to our table. Lovely warm atmosphere, great service (a mention for Helen who served us and provided a first class service). Food was excellent. All three men had steak and were all cooked perfectly. I had...

We came in for a birthday meal upon recommendation from a friend and were not disappointed. The staff were lovely and accommodating to any requests and the ambience was very nice. We had a selection of starters from scallops to pork bites to halloumi fries....

We chose the Red Lion as an alternative to the in-house dining available where we were staying in Harmer Hill. We ate here on three consecutive nights. It ticked all of the boxes; warm welcome, greeted and treated like regulars and cracking service and food....

Being fed up with local pubs being transformed into vastly overpriced gastro venues with pretentious menus, my friend and I decided on the Red Lion instead of other options nearby which I will not name. We had a two course meal, sensibly priced, nicely presented...

We are so lucky - this is our lovely local pub, with great food and friendly service. A great menu, with a mix of specials and pub classics. Always a great night out.

Had lunch with our walking group today. Some time since we were last here and the new owner(s) have done a brilliant job before its re-opening. I think there were about 20+ in our group today which is often a problem for pubs trying to...

Enjoyed excellent food tonight in a relaxing atmosphere with low lighting, soft music and great service. I had the sea bass and my husband the belly pork. Subtle flavours and very high standards. Ten out of ten!

From the staff in the Red Lion to the accommodation, we were more than happy with the lodge and what it offered, we were surprised that it was as nice as it was, it could do with more ventilation upstairs but that being picky, lovely...

We had a fantastic meal here. The pub is lovely and welcoming. Service excellent. We will definitely be returning.

I made quite a last minute booking but they were so helpful and fitted us in. Lovely people and great food. Everyone happy from Granny to Granddaughter!! Definitely will be returning.

Disappointed with main course, curry, too much rice for the quantity of chicken curry Sweet returned overcooked and could only be chewed with difficulty.

Sunday lunch Absolutely delicious. Genuinely home cooked, and roast potatoes anyone would be proud to have cooked themselves. Such a refreshing change to go out for lunch that’s as good as you cook at home. Attentive and unobtrusive staff. Excellent value for money. Looking forward...

We return to The Red Lion over and over again. There is always a lovely welcome from friendly staff. The food is consistently good and there is something for everyone from a varied menu. It is a proper English pub, with a restaurant. Highly recommend.

Open again - we have visited this place many times and it never fails to please. The owners Peter & Jacqui and their staff are friendly and attentive. The food is well priced and excellent quality. We have been waiting for the place to open...

Lovely pub atmosphere, great service and beautiful food. A proper English pub, with restaurant service. It’s a great menu - something for everyone. Always a wonderful welcome!

This was my first trip to a pub since Dec. A sunny afternoon in a beer garden with friends, perfect beer (Butty Bach) and quality food. The staff were excellent throughout with strict adherence to the COVID rules. Highly recommend, I’ll be back as soon as I get another afternoon free.

Only one thing to say about our meal and that is excellent. Although we live locally we had never visited the Red Lion but it was my birthday and we decided to book somewhere for lunch. The food and service were superb. We will definitely be going again

Absolutely delicious meal tonight, the Beef bourguignon with thyme dumplings was mouthwatering. Superb starters, indulgent Christmas pud & very well kept pint or two of Butty Bach! The service was excellent, as always. Gorgeous country pub, with excellent COVID safe measures, we have been here a few times this year and really cannot fault the dedication of the staff in serving us a delicious meal, safely and efficiently. Thank you.

Very impressed with the choice on the Sunday menu and well priced 2 or 3 course options. I thoroughly enjoyed the Prawn cocktail and the Veggies Wellington was very tasty. My husband was very pleased with his choice of garlic mushrooms as a starter and salmon for his main. The four of us felt the plate size for the very nice choice of accompanying veggies was a little on the small size for us to share. I also felt the size of our table did not allow for the requisite social distancing and we were very pleased no one was shown to the two seater table next to our table as that was extremely close!

Visited this place for our wedding anniversary last night and once again the food and service was excellent. Our waitress Ellie was attentive, polite and nothing was too much trouble. The owners, Jackie and Pete, went out of their way to make our evening special. We have recommended the Red Lion to several friends, none of which have been disappointed. If you are in the area make sure you pop in and sample what they have to offer. Pete & Angie ingram

Wonderful Service and Fabulous Food. We ate here on consecutive weeks and had to book over a week ahead which says it all really! The first night we had a lovely table downstairs with the service table for social distancing next to us which was perfect. Great menu and choices. Great welcome from the owner on both occasions which was lovely. Sea Bass and Scallops are amazing and the Spicy Lamb and Falafel burgers were excellent

We had a fantastic time tonight, first class service, amazing food and the best social distancing we have come across so far. We all had different meals and none of us had a bad thing to say about any dish. The waitress were so friendly and efficient, they also didn't rush us at all which was much appreciated. We would highly recommend The Red Lion.

We visited tonight as a family of four. When we arrived we were greeted by a very pleasant waitress that took us to our table, she explained the procedure to us as this is the first time visiting for food since lockdown. I have to honestly say we felt safe and at ease at all times throughout our visit. Everything is put onto a neighbouring vacant table next to you so waitresses have no contact and refrain from leaning over you ect personally I think this is fantastic as it keeping both customers and staff safe at all times. We will definitely be returning. The food was fantastic aswell, all in all a pleasant visit and can’t wait to return again soon.

We visited the Red Lion this weekend and wanted to sit in the garden. On arrival we were welcomed nicely and there was sanitiser in place for our use in the bar area. I have visited this establishment several times in the past and it’s always been a pleasure. However, yesterday once we arrived and sat in the garden and ordered our drinks they were delivered by a waitress with the glasses in her hand and as she passed the glass to my husband her hand touched my husband’s hand. I am sure this was totally unintentional but my thoughts are currently around the problems with COVID-19! at this present time with numbers rising daily and that it would be best practice to minimalise personal contact by delivering drinks to the client on a tray. Another concern for us was that we saw several people leave the garden and several people arrive but we never saw anybody sanitise or clean the tables and chairs.Finally we expected for our personal details to be taken for the record however this was not carried out. God forbid if there was an incidence of Covid this couldn’t be traced? I would like to strongly say this is not a complaint it is more giving positive feedback on our observations in the hope that this feedback assists management ensuring customers feel safe in the future.

We are a localish couple (Harmer Hill) we walk to this pub. You need to come here for food - not going to embellish as it’s so good- just come here - if u have a dog there is a beer garden in good weather and some covered areas outside when bad - the people are friendly and going out of their way to make u feel safe during COVID

Best food service you can get 10/10Food excellent qaulitty outstanding lan lord/landlady lovely couple. you will ever meet. really polite and comforting to make you have the best possible time whilst dinning never had any complaints all excellant and out standing comments staff lovely and you can get on with them really well so make sure you come and have a time of your life for your taste buds to have brilliant meal and a nice cold drink pm favorite customer

We booked a table in advance as we were staying at the nearby Premier Inn, our first mini break since lockdown. What an amazing find The Red Lion was. We received a very warm welcome upon arrival, and was politely asked to use the available hand sanitizer before being shown to our table. The downstairs restaurant was arranged perfectly to adhere to social distancing measures, but this didn't detract from the fabulous setting. We were seated at a table for 4 (there were 2 of us), and were served our food and drinks from the far end of the table, so even when being served, social distancing was in place. We ordered the pate (my all time favourite), and my partner ordered pork belly bites, both which were extremely tasty. For our main, I ordered the chicken with pancetta, and my partner ordered BBQ short ribs, both of which were presented beautifully, and were delicious. The beef ribs were a "belly buster", I thought it was a sharing platter when it was served! All in all, we were truly impressed with the food, service, and appreciated the things in place which are necessary in these strange times. This is a must to visit if you can, we felt completely safe and at ease, and left not having to eat for a week.

We were staying at the Premier Inn which is local to this pub. We were extremely impressed with the pub - the food was excellent (and really good value) and the staff couldn't be more helpful and welcoming. Our first meals out following lockdown and we enjoyed every mouthful!

Visited the Red Lion in Myddle for Sunday lunch for the first time out since lockdown restrictions eased. Felt totally safe, pub and restaurant very clean, social distancing was being maintained and there were hand sanitiser upon entrance. It wasn’t as busy as expected, meaning it was easy to keep a good distance from other diners. The staff were lovely, serving us our drinks and food whilst maintaining a safe distance. Food was, as always, wonderful. Glad to be back eating out, and will definitely be back next week, in fact we have already booked again!

Staying in the area and wanted a nice place to have Sunday Lunch. Absolutely spot on friendly staff and very well presented Sunday Lunch that’s was as good as it looked. Thanks The Red Lion 👍

Called at the pub almost at closing time but the landlady was happy to serve us three warming coffees on such a cold day. There was a large crowd of locals that were happy to talk to us and made us feel welcome. The pub is amazing and although we were not having a meal the menu looked inviting and we would love to eat there another time,

Popped in after a winter walk around nearby Ellesmere. The pub had a lovely inviting atmosphere even though it was only 5PM on a Saturday in January. Ordered 2 homemade lamb and veg pies which arrived piping hot and served by friendly staff. Food was excellent, staff friendly and pub was immaculately clean and cosy. Highly recommend and will visit again when in area

I visited here for my birthday lunch with my family. If you want cheap pub grub then don't go here, but if you want wonderful food and excellent service then this is definitely the place to go. It was very busy but service and food were still superb. Staff were friendly and went out of their way to make us welcome. I would highly recommend this place.

Fantastic family birthday lunch on 22nd December. We took over the top floor. Excellent food , and service was brilliant, even though they were extremely busy. Have visited in the week too and the food is always great

Nice cosy place however terrible customer service, very rude and will not be visiting again due to this fact, would not recommend to anyone just overall poor conduct.

Superb meal, excellent menu choice and was spoilt for choice. Staff so helpful and attentive especially Laura! Wrote this review as soon as I got home. Will definitely be back.

Excellent service. Lovely food and reasonably priced. I had a two course meal from a set menu and thoroughly enjoyed the experience of eating at The Red Lion.

My husband and I were staying on a short break near Shrewsbury and decided to book a table for dinner here after reading the reviews on TripAdvisor.When we arrived we were pleasantly surprised to see a busy bar in a pub which is obviously thriving, which is quite rare in our neighbourhood of Surrey in the middle of the week.We did have to wait a little bit to be served as they were so busy, but we prefer that rather than being rushed. I ordered the pigeon breast to start which was lovely, and the duck breast for main course, which was also really well cooked. My husband had the pate and the pie of the day which was the best pie he had eaten, full of succulent meat and perfect pastry.The wine was very drinkable and reasonably priced, and the service was warm and friendly.Overall a great pub and restaurant and a great asset to the locals!

Came here for lunch to celebrate a family birthday. First time for me and I throughly enjoyed it. Great service, fabulous menu and the food was perfect. Can't want to come back!

Recommended by the receptionist where we were staying in Shrewsbury and only 10 minutes drive away. We booked a table and were seated promptly. Service was also quick and the food very good. I had the pie of the day and my wife had the belly pork. The food was hot, tasty and nicely presented. We also had desserts which were of the same high standard.

First time at the Red Lion was not disappointed the restaurant was very clean although we did sit in semi darkness which I don't particularly like but that's my preference. The service was good and the food excelkent wouldn't hesitate in recommending this pun.

1st of many visits to come. Loved it. Great menu, lovely service and friendly locals. Garden is really sunny and warm.............in the summer. Lovely creative choices on the menu for a traditional or alternative Sunday Lunch. Can't wait to try all the dishes!

Love it here, nice welcome and good service. The Sunday lunch is really great and would highly recommend.

We were 8 adults and 7 children between 8 and 12 years for lunch during a day out walking. Fabulous food, welcomed and catered for all ages. Staff encouraged the children with their ordering and service was attentive. Would return again soon.

My 7 friends and I had a lovely evening at the Red Lion - Delicious food and great service. They also have a fabulous Gin selection!

This was the best lunch of our recent week holidaying in Shropshire. The fish finger sandwiches were absolutely awesome, with perfectly cooked chips. We struggled to eat again for the rest of the day! All of their sandwich options are hot - a shame really, as if there were cold / simpler options we would have returned.

We went there today (23/07/2019) for my wife's birthday it is a very friendly ultra clean restaurant,with fantastic food we would definitely go back and highly recommend to all,

Lovely friendly staff and great service despite us taking two little monkeys to dinner! The steak was lovely and the chicken breast and kids meals were great. Only reason for a 4 rather than a 5 was that the dauphinois potatoes were really disappointing with an odd flavour and they would normally be my favourite!

I took me wife and son for a lunchtime meal on Monday June 24th to celebrate the latter's birthday. Excellent lunchtime menu offering 2 courses for £11 and 3 courses for £15. My son ate from the main menu and was equally impressed. The service was quick and efficient, the food hot and tasty. Very impressed, thank you.

We went to this restaurant on a Saturday lunchtime it’s a great relaxed atmosphere great food I can highly recommend the chicken breast in a leek sauce.The cheese board is huge too

I booked in advance for our celebratory meal, my daughter's birthday & Father's Day. We arrived in good time & there were several spaces still left in the parking area. We were shown straight to our seats & menus were selected. My husband chose the mushrooms, my daughter chose the grilled goat's cheese, I had potatoe & watercress soup which was tasty, but could have been hotter! Then we plunged into the main course; I enjoyed pork ribs which were tasty & crispy, my husband & daughter chose the turkey which they liked. Extra veg could be ordered, but what we had was plenty! Deserts were a little disappointing, however my husband enjoyed his sticky pudding, I had triple choc brownie which I did not find very yummy. My daughter asked for biscuits & cheese which were not on the menu, this was £9.00. I had a G & T, husband drank a non alcoholic beer, daughter drank water. The whole bill came to £80.00.

Was recommended this pub by local people for a family meal. They fitted us in at little notice and were waiting on our arrival. First impressions were if a well decorated and cosy country pub with a warm welcome. We decided not to have starters but nibbles instead (harrisa hummous with warm pitta, lofts with harrisa mayo, whitebait and mixed olives) and these where more than sufficient. The Marissa hummous had a real kick and everyone loved it. Mains were steak, gammon, seabass, salmon and pie of the day. Everyone loved there meals and the accompaniments were just as delicious. Pie of the day was game,it was packed with meat which was soft and succulent and soft and the red cabbage side had a lovely spice flavour to compliment. We were totally stuffed by this point but as you do 2 of us still had desserts which they loved. We had several glasses wine, beers and soft drinks and braced ourselves for the bill.....how shocked we were! Only a bit over £100 pounds (double checked and everything accounted for!)

Great food, excellent service and a lovely atmosphere. The perfect Late Sunday lunch. Can’t wait for next visit.

My husband and I visited this lovely restaurant at 1830 for dinner on Friday evening. Actually we were so hungry after a two hour drive that we were a bit early, but there was plenty of room for us to be fitted in before our reservation time. I had a soft drink and DH opted for a glass of Shiraz. I started with pan fried scallops with crispy belly pork and black pudding crumb which were cooked to melt in the mouth perfection and the belly pork was super crispy and tasty and the black pudding crumb was just enough. DH chose chicken liver pate for his starter and it came with plenty of toasted ciabatta and a tasty chutney which he enjoyed very much. For my main course I selected Home-made pie of the day with mash, seasonal vegetables and gravy - and what a pie it was! An epic sized chicken and leek pie with the crispiest pastry I’ve ever had! No soggy bottoms here thank you very much! DH had ribeye steak with peppercorn sauce and fries. The onion rings that came with the steak must have won competitions they were so big. He said his steak was cooked to perfection too. After such delicious fare we were determined to fit in dessert and both chose the lemon mousse with shortbread biscuit. The lemony-ness and lightness of the mousse was stunning, and the shortbread biscuit was shortness itself. We each had an Americano to finish – mine white his black. DH considers himself a bit of a coffee connoisseur, and we both agreed it was the smoothest coffee we have ever drunk. Total cost just under £80 before tip. Excellent value for money for top quality, cooked to perfection, full of flavour food. The staff are friendly and helpful and dishes are cleared away quickly which we were impressed with.

Perfect setting of a country pub which dayes back to the doomesday book. Fan atmosphere and great service and food. Nothing was too much trouble. Thank you

Quiet Monday evening with eight of us at a family celebration. Staff very good and food great and good value

We went here with friends, we are doing the rounds of local establishments over several months and January was The Red Lions turn.

We’ve eaten here a few times now as it’s just down the road from where we live. The menu is what you’d expect from this kind of establishment and the pies in particular are very good. Generous portions, the ingredients are very good quality and there’s a lightness of touch to the cooking you wouldn’t necessarily expect. It’s not going to win prizes for originality but for a good meal out it’s a reliable venue. Very nicely refurbished with a separate bar and very friendly, helpful staff who seem to be enjoying their jobs. On site parking is a bit limited but out of hours parking in the school pull in or the adjacent village hall are alternatives. Recommended.

The friendly welcoming staff are an asset and credit to this establishment. We had the steak which was excellent, a few drinks at the bar made this a lovely evening.

We had an extremely pleasant lunch on New Year's Day and were served brilliantly and efficiently by the waiting staff who friendly and accommodating. The food was pretty good, too. If I'm really splitting hairs, the black pudding croquettes needed a twist more seasoning, and the goats cheese tart a few more micro-herbs as garnish, but the chicken liver pate, the sea bass, and the pork belly all delivered bang on point. And at reasonable prices, too. But, chef, can we please have the choice of custard for the sponge puddings? Call it creme Anglaise, if it makes you happy; or Bird's if it doesn't. Regardless, I'll be definitely coming back, if only to see if my request has been heeded. Thank you, Red Lion. (Party of six at 1pm.)

We arranged a family meal here at 6pm as it is half way for us all to travel too, but upon arrival, when we wanted a quick drink first at the bar, a guy who we assumed was the head waiter, told us that we had to go to our table.

Held our Christmas staff party here this year. We were fortunate to enjoy the upstairs dining room which was decorated like Santa’s grotto whilst giving us our own space to have all sorts of fun! The food was on the money with generous portions - many of our party commented how it was a hard to beat Christmas Dinner! The staff made sure we were looked after brilliantly - we couldn’t ask for any more. The gin shelf pleased many of us too: choices, choices! Thank you Pete, Jackie & the team.

Booked a table and we were greeted by pleasant staff,and the establishment was warm and friendly .we had our drinks at the table ,when the food arrived we did not have to wait lone it was hot and enjoyable .

While treating ourselves to a weekend away we realised that this was a very well to do area and the locals had high standards and sometimes higher prices. So we were pleasently surprised by this beautiful balance between pub and restaurant. The barman made us feel relaxed muxing fresh ginger cocktails as we chose our meal in the nook before moving through to the apparently popular restaurant. We chose from the set (2 or 3 course) menu which I think changes weekly perhaps daily. All the food was quick & fresh (and hot) and the service excellent. I would recommend this place to small groups too. Around £25-30 each including drinks, but no wine

Staying locally and found this lovely pub. Friendly welcome, helpful staff. Ample parking including disabled. Great ambiance, tables well spaced out so not banging into other dinners. Food very good, well priced and well presented

On an off chance, we dropped into the Red Lion, we haven’t been there for many years. What a great transformation, friendly staff, good surroundings. The menu had a great range. I had a great salmon dish with asparagus, my sweet a raspberry parfait with mango sorbet. My fellow diner had a great gammon and pineapple with the best chunky chips. We will not leave it so long next time.

Just had another superb Sunday lunch in great surroundings. Staff as always were attentive and friendly. We have visited this restaurant a many times and it never fails to please. Another reviewer said that this place was fast become the best place to eat in Shropshire - whole heartedly agree. We will be returning soon.

We recently decided to meet up with family for a Saturday lunch at the Red Lion . We havent been to this establishment for many years so were impressed with the renovations and the revised layout.

Called in on our way home and found it to be a delightful place. The staff were helpful and friendly and the food was excellent. We couldn't eat inside as dogs weren't allowed,but the garden was perfect. The grass was mown and the flower beds and baskets were delightful.The whole place was clean and tidy, definitely will revisit.

A landlord who, after just a few visits, remembers your preferred tipple - a landlady who’s care and attention in the dining room is both professional and genuine. The staff, all smiles and attentive - I really can’t fault this place. A impressive range of real ales and fantastic food - if you live in Shropshire, please visit this place, as it’s a gem.

My wife and I go regularly and have never been disappointed with the food or the service. All the staff are friendly and helpful especially Jackie and Pete. We had our sons christening on the 17th June and they gave exceptional service and all 65 of our guests expressed delight at the food and venue.

We were here for my godsons christening this weekend and stayed at the lodge next door. The staff are brilliantly friendly and helpful, all wanting to make our day run as smoothly and happily as possible. The food is excellent quality and the surroundings are very tasteful and bright. The garden was ideal for the children to run around in safely and the bonus of giant jenga was much utilised! Thank you so much for a wonderful occasion. Can’t recommend them highly enough.

Visited the Red Lion for a much needed bite to eat and pint after running the Shrewsbury 1/2 Marathon. Went for the Sunday lunch of Roast Beef with trimmings, washed down with a Peroni or two. Food was superb and the service from the staff was excellent even though the pub was extremely busy with a Christening.
