The Red Lion in Bath in Bath and North East Somerset

Big thanks to Tia, fantastic service 👍

We stopped here on a very long trip back to Lancashire. Have to say that although the service was a little slow ( the bar was quite busy however!), the food was really nice and well worth the wait!

Went here for a friend's birthday. I got the mega mixed grill, for £13 I can't complain. The gammon and steak were well cooked and I really enjoyed it. It's good pub food and the prices won't shock you.

Staff were a little rude - when I asked what was included in a special offer the response was check the terms and conditions but the food was very delicious.

Pretty awful service honestly, staff are rude, uncaring and on occasion refuse to even bring your drink to the table. Genuinely strange atmosphere, they seem to heavily prioritise locals and even management will shout across the pub as if it is their own home. Food is also incredibly meh and will take an eternity to come out, you could easily be waiting 45 minutes. Many other things I could write here but not worth the time honestly, avoid at all costs.

7 of us met at the Red Lion today ( this morning ) only 1 other person in there - & man behind the bar on the phone got comftable & decided what to have went to the bar to order & waited waited for a while & asked the man if anyone was serving his reply was IM BUSY - so we left & had an enjoyable lunch at the Globe were staff only to keen to serve us

Realy nice bar staff, food good & free parking reg at bar! Defo use again.

Great local pub, good food and the staff can't do enough to help. Would recommend.

Tia was absolutely amazing. Very helpful and kind. Amazing service

Good prices on beers and food. lovely staff, who know my name, and I know theirs. Particularly Leeanne and Hannah.. Also new on the block Tia.

Lovely meal with work colleagues during the week, great food with a friendly atmosphere. Thank you Beth, Hannah and especially Tia for the great service and making it an enjoyable evening

Very friendly stuff. I'm good food nice pestent place

Lovely pub, warm and welcoming! Best pool table in oddown!

I come here quite often for some dinner the staff are really friendly and welcoming the bar maids Hannah and tia gave excellent service food was lovely

Great food, friendly helpful staff.

We stopped at this pub on our way home from Salisbury for something to eat. The bar was full of rowdy men the only place to eat was down a slope into a lower area. On walking down the slope our feet were sticking to the carpet it was disgusting. It was a limited menu so not much choice. The photo is the lasagne we were given with burnt garlic bread. We did not eat it, it was disgusting. A member of staff came down the slope in a loud conversation with a man about putting photos on social media. Followed by another women with 2 children in tow who stormed into the kitchen looking for her. We went looking on other tables for cutlery and napkins but none of the tables had napkins and there was only the odd knife or fork on random tables. Food - disgusting Staff - not interested Atmosphere - rowdy Furniture and carpets - filthy DO NOT GO HERE IT IS DISGUSTING!

The pub was practically empty when we visited and we had to prompt the staff after 30 minutes of waiting for drinks and after 30 minutes from getting our drinks the food was not the best

Live this pub! Fantastic staff! Karole is the top barmaid fast and happy everytime. And dec is a top chef.

The food was pretty decent, although it didn't come with everything stated on the menu. Good value though. Staff were very friendly and welcoming. Toilets not so good.

Atmosphere is great!! Staff are lovely and welcoming! Drinks were good so was the food definitely recommend!!

We come to this place regularly and absolutely love it, staff are amazing friendly welcoming and polite we would recommend this place 100% Hannah, Tia, Jack, Carole, Leanne, are really good 😊 and the others too

Stopped of at this devine watering hole for a late brunch with the wife and kiddies and must say we all had a splendid experience the locals seem lovely too and oh so very friendly highly recommended and shall return tomorrow possibly the day after also is looking very promising

First impressions of this visit were not good. Many tables were dirty and covered in used crockery and glasses. When ordering we were told the fish and chip option was not available which coincidentally was unavailable the last time we visited about 4 years ago! I was puzzled by the fact that on your menu you have a boxed section showing which dishes were included in your '2 for £11' offer. I did not spot the information which stated that only the items marked with a £ sign were included in that offer so began by picking something not included. It turns out several items did not have the £ sign which begs the question why were they included at all?? My biggest criticism was the general condition of the interior of the establishment. It clearly needs serious money spending on it to bring it up to an acceptable standard. In particular the carpets. The carpet leading to the dining area is horrendous. It looks like it's had years of food and drinks split on it and been trodden into the pile flattening it and making it almost impossible to see the it's pattern. Whilst at the bar ordering I heard another customer complaining about the state of the lady's toilet. I accept this is hearsay but I was then unwilling to visit them myself! I have to say I have no complaints about the staff who were both friendly and courteous .

The tables were dirty. The toilets had no seats on them and loads off water on floor from where they were leaking. No napkins and cutlery already out so u don't know who's touched them. Hour wait for food. Not hygienic at all. Sad to see it has gone down hill.

I was served by Hannah who was polite, professional and extremely helpful. The cider was nice and general atmosphere of the pub was lively and friendly. Would definitely recommend this place! I didn't have food, so can't comment on that.

Very approachable & friendly staff, willing to do anything to help make our experience a comfortable one. There were 10 of us & I'm disabled on crutches with an assistance dog & all this was taken into consideration, even down to staying us nearest to disabled toilet. The food came out promptly & all correct & hot (apart from last dish which we waited a while 4) , but they were very apologetic & didn't charge us 4 this one 4 inconvenience) Overall a fab experience & would recommend.

Drove 10 miles to go here and use a discount voucher sent to us by sizzling pubs, sat down (plenty of tables) looked menu asked if rib of beef was available said no so looked again only to be told no food. We have s table of 15 coming in soon so cant do food. The gentleman went to the kitchen and asked the manager came back and said sorry no food as we have a big table to serve later. We left and will not be using Sizzling Pubs again particularly the Red Lion in Bath

Absolutely awful! Visited on many occasions and 1 star is a compliment. The Manager hasn’t a clue! The kitchen is closed more often than it’s open. Not a seat on any of the toilets, ladies or gents. The poor girl on the bar was the only compliment I could give the place she was rushed off her feet and handled all the complaints without getting flustered she deserves 5 stars (Lillie I think her name was). Me and my family have visited this pub for many years on many occasions it has never been this bad!!

Visit every Tuesday night for a drink, Great service and helpful staff. Will see you this week!

Before you can have a drink or some food they want data on you do not give you any information how the data is being used I don't know even his house is illegal. Just tell you have to put your car registration and which will give them information about you.

So much better than it used to be. A little bit more work to get the consistency and it will be perfect. Staff always smiling

Got some good gardens out front and back. Cheap drinks and food. Quality getting better and better everyday just needs a little more

I got a £100 parking fine for parking in this pub for an hour. There was no signage inside or outside the pub that was apparent to me, like there always is if you have to register your car. I am really disappointed with the lack of indication that you must either pay for parking or register your vehicle on entry. I know that some pubs have register on entry, but that is always accompanied with very obvious signage. There isn't even a parking sign in the car park!

Came for food on Friday 1pm, waited 1hour for 2 pub classics and there was only 1 member of staff to be seen. Food was ok but when leaving you can see the chef just standing having a cigarette. Awful experience after we had to wait so long

Food great and staff were really friendly. Heard they are bringing breakfasts back soon too!

Had a lovely lunch with family. The pub was too hot though. No windows or doors open in the bottom section, no ventilation and no air conditioning. Really stiffling!Really busy, the staff were brilliant and all working so hard in awful conditions.

Lovely location food was lovely

Ordered food at 12:58 no hardly no one in the pub, checked how long food would take as had an appointment at 2pm told 25 mins at 1:31 chased food was told ots on its way chased again at 1:36 was told it was being plated as said I would need to cancel & was told no, ot came out at 1:41 great 4 minutes to wat our meal. Left 3/4's & the 4 people that came in with us & ordered same time where still waiting when we left at 1:46. Funniest 25 minutes I had seen & were not hel0ful in trying to sort the issue Well had reply, if I had been told it was going to 45 minutes I would not have ordered I am not the silly & don't have money to waste on a meal we wouldn't have had time to eat. Also we ordered on the app so you didnt serve us as you advised in yiur reply or told us the time. It was only when i first chased you told me it was a standard 25 minutes. If someone asked to cancel & gives the reason why then surely you should have said OK let's see what we can do for you & not just say we are plating up (after being told this twice) & look away. You were not that busy. There was a table of 4 people who came in the same time as us, who also mentioned to my husband how slow you were in serving food, a couple next to us who's order you didn't have so where given someone else to ear, 2 guys sat drinking at the table to our left, & 3 ladies came in had a drink & left so how is that busy? I do not like being told I am a liarer which it what appears to be the case that you are putting forward.

Great food and great service!! Came out hot and fresh, kudos to the chef! It was delicious!! Will be back!

Can describe how enjoyable are experience was, food came out fast and was very tasty. Bar staff were lovely and friendly and Brandon made us feel very at home. Will be coming again and recommending to all my friends and family.

Staff are nice and respectful made my time there nice and delightful

Sadly I won’t be returning a Friday afternoon hardly anyone in pub waiting over 2 a hr for 2 meals. The chef needs to think about how he is taking to staff and how much customers can actually hear. I felt sorry for the lady who was front of house who he was having a go at.

Stunned I was bribed into giving a 5 star review to get my car parking ticket cancelled!!!! I got a ticket recently as my friend had entered the reg incorrectly, didn’t stay long the food was terrible, the locals were all sat opposite bar once again with the foulest of drunken language. I know this is a pub but I’ve a 5 year old!! Kitchen staff in filthy uniforms I honestly should of gone to McDonalds for some hot food! I wouldn’t recommend this pub it was great a few months back when we came before Xmas. I’d rather pay my parking ticket than give you a 5 star review thanks Brandon!!

lived in oddown my whole life. I used to work in mitchell’s and Butlers and were surprised to hear this place was in the company when i first came here. but new manager has really changed the atmosphere

Enjoyed the football tonight, had a steak to go with it and it was spot on. Almost been coming here for 2 years and this Is the best it's ever been

Hannah was such a good host. She was attentive, helpful and friendly. She assisted us with a lovely meal. We will be back again because of her service and food.

OK for a drink. Eat the food at your own risk

Staff very friendly, Brilliant food, Good value for the money. Nice environment.

Really like sizzling but this one was pretty dire. More of a drinkers pub. Food was burnt and literally half my steak was fat! Not great. Staff pleasant enough but full with drinkers and dirty tables.

Came for the pool night last week. Good time cheap beer as always. Nice that they now have enough team behind the bar and a.

Karol and Chloe are amazing so welcoming we popped in just for a break from traffic ended up having meals kids had desserts as well. Felt like a step back in time also my wife and I are vegan food was great. Kids aren't vegan their food was great son is fussy and he loved the make your sundae we've never seen him mix foods before. Great experience will return soon

Popped in for drinks and a bit of grub late in the evening. They seemed pretty busy around 830 but still got us a table and had the food out quickly. I remember what this place was like a few months ago seems to be turning around 👍

Food in here with the lads. Nice atmosphere and cheap beer

Really friendly staff, great for footy

I don't understand why this place has good reviews. We booked a table for 18:30. Told on arrival to sit anywhere. Pointless making a booking really. Food left on the bar. Pub really hot and stuffy. Gents toilet was flooded and no hand wash. Staff more interested in smoking outside. Not a nice welcome. We walked out. Very grotty place. Should be closed down. We thought that we would try it again as it has a new manager and it's being turned around however we were very disappointed and won't return.

Umm…. What’s not good…. food on table, bar staff smoking at front door not serving; bar had food on the end of it (looked like it had been there awhile)… made booking, not honoured… really grotty atmosphere; bar staff who was smoking at front door (friendly). But had other “members of public” walking behind bar. No uniform standards or identification; good luck trying to turn this place about! Won’t be coming back here unfortunately.

Myself and my husband Andrew came here this evening. Had a lovely time, met the manager and a weird guy called Simon. Lucy behind the bar was brilliant.

Big garden and food was good value for money and quick service.

Food getting better. Chefs nice met jack sound bloke

Great pub with friendly staff & owner, would recommend!

may be staffing could be better

the place was amazing, food was great (specially the spicy ones), but the attention was supreme! thanks Jack, Declan, Brandon, karol and Chloe for everything, you made our night remarkable

Lovely atmosphere & happy staff. I’m glad I asked a member of staff what they’d recommend as I really enjoyed my food.

Excellent service and staff. Lovely food and great experience overall.

Always had a good meal here and enjoyed our stay but our recent visit on Saturday has put us off completely. We waited 50 minutes for our food without being told there was a wait and there were kids running all round the bar area falling over and crying. We never like to complain, especially from a place we call our local but with the wait on food and kids running around after 9 o’clock on a Saturday night causing chaos has stopped us coming again.

Had some lunch here today just on my way to work. Staff were great really friendly and polite chatted with Me for a while and made sure everything was good.

We come here as a family all the time really nice to have a separate family dining area away from how loud the bar get get when the football is on.

Local to the area used to come here a lot. New management in seems to be building it back up so will be back in the future!!!!

Had a great time eating a mega mixed grill and having a few drinks. The Electric Mai Thai that Chloe and Lily recommended was really tasty and well made. Well done

I had sizzling chicken on a sizzling platter. The first chicken was undercooked. The vegetable raw. No sizzle ! My husbands curry feast was very good. Large meal . Staff very nice. Have not been there for a long-time but won't go again unfortunately.

Good and drinks here with my friends the other day. Really nice open space Quick service on the bar will be back again soon!

The food was the same as as before but couldn't fault the new manager, we had an issue late last year and wasn't going to return, but the new manager stepped up and looked after us very well, I wish him all the best in turning this venue around.

Top service, top food, sort your garnish out xxxx

The atmosphere is good and I liked the food , the toilets though are a bit worse for wear I think and when I went in to use them was walking through puddles

Thought we would try these again as everyone makes mistakes. How ever again food was wrong, either hardly anything on the menu, comes cold or when bought out you have to chase up missing food of the plate.

Came in here for food after a day out shopping in Bath. Arrived and ordered 2 meals and 2 drinks through the app. Waited 25 minutes before I went to the bar to get the drinks. Apparently a ticket hadn't printed. Then waited another half an hour for a fish and chips and a burger. Never received the side of bread and butter. Will not be coming here again. Worst of all, I left a tip on check out that the staff deffinately don't deserve. Terrible. Given 2 stars because the food actually wasn't bad once it arrived.

We popped in on the off chance and were surprised that it wasn’t more busy. The staff were very friendly and welcoming. The coffee machine was out of order but I was offered a latte from the microwave, I declined but thought it was a nice gesture which not many people would bother with! The ordering process was easy, just a quick trip to the bar and we had to wait no time for the food to arrive. It was presented on hot plates and was delicious as well as great value for money. Our grandsons had food from the children’s menu which was well received and very generous portions. I had a burger which was juicy and cooked well, my husband had the chicken feast and couldn’t manage to eat it all. The red Lion is definitely worth a visit.

One of us had the ribs. The sweetcorn was still frozen and stone cold to the touch and the tomato was cold that was supposed to be grilled. The salted caramel profiteroles were still frozen.

Weather was nice and me and my partner wanted to find somewhere that was local but also had good outdoor space for us and the dog. We came across the Red Lion on Google and we were very pleased with our recent visit.

Two stars based on the food which has slightly gone down hill. The overall pub has to be honest. We've been coming here for years as a family to celebrate birthdays and special occasions bit in future will be looking somewhere else. We had a booking for 5pm when we got there the lady behind the bar said the down the ramp section of the pub where we normally eat was shut off and to find somewhere to sit in the bar area. All the tables were full of plates and glasses. The bar lady came over and cleaned a table for us I'll give her that but as we had booked a table this was a little bit off putting. The pub area is no place for a family meal. Loud people swearing getting drunk. Waited over an hour for our food which was alright. Some of the meals were slightly overcooked but as we were starving we ate what we could. Toilets were hit and Miss with loo roll. Disappointed with our experience and will avoid in future.

Busy with locals mid week at the end of the day. A longish wait then for our evening dinner meals; which were pleasing when they came. Good value servings too. The young blonde lady, who seemed to be in charge, was doing a very friendly and professional job managing the busy circumstances.

Recommended to us by a young local. Very busy mid-week and while obviously understaffed, our dinner meals of two mega mixed grills were worth the 50 minute wait. Great value and friendly staff. I can see why it was recommended to us.

this spot is lush! clearly recently redone and a new coat of paint. completely transformed the pub!! the service was lovely and the waitress, hannah, made the visit even more enjoyable:)

Friendly staff, quick service, reasonably priced, Georgia was very friendly.

Popped into the pub for some lunch on my way through bath. Staff were very friendly, special mention to Georgia for being so welcoming. Great value for money.

Fantastic homily vibe throughout the pub. Really enjoyed our visit to this brilliant local hub.. No place like home!!. Great service even better staff. Karole and co, rock the place Really made us feel comfortable and welcome 🙏.

Visiting my granddaughter, food & service was excellent, very friendly staff, would highly recommend

It's a nice place, clean,very friendly and helpful staff, Georgia are waitress Was friendly and helpful. Always had a smile on her face she did above and beyond, Thomas was the barman and he served our drinks and he was good and friendly.

The pub has really improved since the new manager Brad has taken over. The food is great and all the staff are welcoming and friendly!

Pub offers very good value for money. Huge selection of drink and food with great service. The pub needs to bring back entertainment

Had a great family meal for a reasonable price. We were served by Karole who was helpful and friendly! Would definitely recommend.

Food was shockingly poor... I went back today an had a totally different experience it was all grate with food an staff all friendly as was last time good atmosphere an place is clean and tidy thats always nice to see so thank you to staff for all of that an changing my mind about the food it was lush

Me and my partner popped in the other day as we were looking for something to eat - We met the manager Brad who was lovely and he cooked us an amazing meal - we will certainly be back soon 🩷

Food was amazing, staff welcoming and also so friendly

Arrived after work with the boys and girlfriends was a small group of us ..We weren't going to eat at first but decided to have a drink there before we decided where to go after ...After chatting to the bar staff we were made to...

Great atmosphere, great staff and great food! :)

Came here on a Monday evening for the cheap Monday Club drinks food was amazing and atmosphere was good nice chill pub. Would reccomend!

Food was nice, good offers means lunch was cheap - but we waited almost 50 minutes for two meals (gammon and chips and a mac & cheese) Place wasn't busy and we were by the kitchen door so know not many meals went out. Everyone was checking how long their food was going to be so not just us having the problem.

Great customer service and cheap dishes. Can't grumble for the price you pay and the quantity of the food you get. tttttt
