The Red Lion Inn - Redbourne in North Lincolnshire

Lovley food always made to feel very welcome lovley staff lovely clean place good choice of dishes on the menu always some good deals on different days of the week 👌🤑

We came for a birthday celebration and was really looking forward to it. The venue has a lovely deel to it and was welcoming. We ordered premeal drinks. The restaurant started to fill up. We ordered a Sunday type lunch, roast beef, and turkey. When the food came, it looked great. However, when we started eating it, it was obvious that it had been warmed up in the microwave. The roast potato was clearly warmed up. The food was cold. We brought this to the attention of the server, and we were asked if we would like anything else from the menu. We refused. In fairness, it might have been because we were the first in the restaurant that day but I don't expect to have warmed up food at the price we're paying.

We had been here a couple of years ago for the Sunday carvery and decided to go again we were very disappointed that there was no carvery we ordered the slow cooked beef and when it came I disappointed one bit of beef one carrot one parsnip mash gravy and Yorkshire pudding and red cabbage not enough gravy which they did bring some more the staff were very friendly and service with a smile was great but as for the food we wouldn't return it wasn't for us 😀

Excellent food, warm welcome and very good service. Had the two steak special offer. Thought steaks were good quality at an excellent price and cooked exactly as we asked for. Other family members enjoyed their food too. Definitely recommend and we’ll be back. Thank you.

The staff were welcoming and had a perfect balance regarding attentiveness. The food was delicious, with the starters being very generous. The booking was simple and it gave us enough time to enjoy the meal without feeling rushed.

Friendly staff. Great food. Great presentation. Excellent value for money. Definitely recommend. Will definitely returning as they have great deals.

Our second visit. First visit food was excellent. Second visit, not good. Sirloin was chewy and flavourless, beef bourguignon was totally different from the first visit and not nearly as nice. Service was slow and they were not busy when we were there. Really disappointed especially as we’d recommended it to friends.

Lovely Sunday lunch for my wifes birthday in a great pub . Nice price as well ..great value for great quality. Would definitely book again

Food was very good indeed. We did have a 45 min wait, but we didn't mind as they were clearly very busy. I was glad we booked as I don't think we would have stood a chance of getting a table otherwise.

The Friends of Bottesford Beck (FOBBs) annual dinner out. We found the food to be top quality and the service very good. Especially our waitress. The proof is that we will be going back to enjoy the food. Kind Regards Gwylim Glyndwr Williams Chairperson of FOBB.

Booked table 5.30pm. Seated at 5.50pm. Long wait for all course's. Food was great, but error in calculation on the bill.

Went for Christmas Day lunch and was very impressed with food and service so decided to go for Mothers Day with a table of ten again the food was lovely all home cooked and large portions.The service was excellent would totally recommend this restaurant x X

Amazing food and lovely table next to the fire 🔥 . Staff and lovely snd friendly just enough not too fussy but couldn’t do enough for us . Highly recommend this is my second visit will definitely be back

Pleasant afternoon with good hearty food. Nice staff and lovely village. Good carpark. I recommend booking a table as it can get very busy at peak times. Will definitely go again.

Went on a Friday evening and enjoyed the offer of two steaks & sauces for £40. Opted for the Scotch eggs for starters & they were delicious. The steaks didn't disappoint either, 4 out of the party of six went for these & they were very good. Staff were excellent and the place was busy with a good atmosphere. Will definitely be returning

We arrived in the village for a holiday, reserved a table for the Friday night, we were sat in the perfect spot in front of a beautiful fire and the food was delicious, the staff were lovely so we Booked the same table for Sunday Roast. Sadly the fire was not lit, the pub was cold. Our food was missing roast potatoes and the food was sadly only warm. For this reason we left early 🤷‍♀️

We live in the village so this is our local. A very nice country pub. The pub was warm and friendly, we sat nice and cosy near the open fire. We had 2 x fish and chips and 1 gammon. The service was quick with condiments already on the table a nice pleasant lunch with our friend

Really good service.The pub was warm.and clean. I opted for the ploughman's . It was a right plate full .The scotch egg was the best I've ever had, warm, just the right texture and flavoursome. My mum ordered the light bite fsh coupons and cips.They looked lovely .We will definitely return. This was recommended on eating around Doncaster and it lived up to its expectations

We had a very nice meal with so.e well kept beers on tap. A great variety on the menu which were all well presented and very tasty. Thanks.

Great food with a friendly environment. Went on a Monday night when they had 40% off the food menu which is a great bargain

Booked in for sunday lunch, its a place well known to us usually for summer outdoor drinks as its in a beautiful setting and sometimes a meal. Sunday roast was good, can’t grumble at the price as it seems all pubs are £5/£6 more expensive than a year ago/ 18 months ago for sunday lunch. Service was slowish but we weren’t in a rush so didnt bother us, front of house team were very pleasant. So apart from staff shortage and price which this awful government and Brexit are responsible for we enjoyed the experience.

We had a fantastic Sunday lunch again yesterday. Great service, fabulous food & our favourite place for Sunday lunch . We would highly recommend

Last night we went to the Red Lion Coaching Inn, at Redbourne - a small village just off the A15 on the east side of Scunthorpe. We’ve not been here for many years, but the menu sounded good and it’s not too far away for us . We chose prawn cocktail tart (with shredded lettuce and lemon gel in the base), home made Scotch egg (served warm), and goats cheese on sourdough bread. Main courses were fish and chips, moules mariniere, mussel and king prawn linguine and bouillabaisse. Desserts choices were tiramisu, chocolate brownie, and chocolate and orange cheesecake. It was a great meal and we met the chef to thank him personally. It’s well worth the drive to eat here!

Lovely pub ,food pretty good , deserts lovely , but did find a hour and ten minutes a long time for our food to be served , and then had to find someone to take a order for our dessert, and to take our plates away . We ate in the restaurant part and was the only ones in there , and felt we had been forgotten about !

We used to go to the red lion all the time for a Sunday carvery and really enjoyed it, sadly, the quality of the Sunday dinners, has drastically gone down hill. Hard roast potatoes, chewy meat, like warm gravy, we will not be returning. There are far better local spots for a good roast.

My wife and I booked for Sunday lunch as this is one of our favourite pubs in the area. We ordered one chicken supreme and one slow roasted beef, both meats were moist tender and plentiful. Good selection of veg and a Yorkshire pudding on...

A very good lunch and a pint! I had the Ploughman’s and my friend had the Gammon. Delicious food, well presented. Food was made with fresh, locally sourced ingredients. A very friendly atmosphere. Highly recommended!!!

This is an excellent place for food. We have been quite a few times and it never disappoints. The meals are freshly cooked and very decent sized portions. I struggled to finish mine we all had different meals and every one looked and tasted amazing....

We came for Sunday lunch. We had a 2.20pm booking. unfortunately with us being quite late in the day a couple of the things I wanted off the menu had ran out. We both ordered a beef roast, one rare, however they both came the...

We ordered the Fish & Chips X 2 At least compared to other reviews it was hot . Unfortunately wife had bad belly today which can only be down to the meal. Very Expensive drinks nearly double the price of my local pub . Will...

Great food with a great price. Nice atmosphere even though it was early, 6pm, it was quite busy. Will definitely be returning

Went for lunch !! A massive disappointment. Food only warm , I had fish & chips , must have had 3 chips , the rest being scrap ends razors. Needless to say wont be going again .

Great value Wednesday fish and chip night and a good atmosphere . Went specially and was not disappointed.

Seated next to the open fire on a cold January day, Tracy was the perfect host and the food was as normal great . our party of 4 had fish and chips. sausage mash with veg, hunters chicken. Gammon with chips egg and pineapple ,each...

We had first visited the red lion early summer last year, on the way home from visiting family, the building has tonnes of charm, we had a couple of drinks in the grounds and the food was fantastic, albeit a little expensive. Attentive staff, and...

We visited and really enjoyed our choices. We only had mains and a pud. My husband had duck breast and I, the mushroom stroganoff which was really tasty. His duck was cooked pink and he was pleased with his choice. The pub was quite busy...

What a terrible pub, freezing cold had to sit with our coats on, went with family, myself and husband ordered the signature burger, and my daughter the fish and chips, well What a massive disappointment!!! The food arrived Freezing cold and honestly you would get...

Very poor - chicken supreme was not chicken supreme which to me should be chicken breast and a cream sauce but a quarter of a chicken which was served - along with the veg cold. Others had the beef which was also cold. The waitress...

Came for Sunday dinner and was pleasantly surprised to see the choice of slow cooked or rare beef . I opted for rare beef and it came with all the trimmings and was lovely a really nice dinner . I did order a side of...

4 adults and a toddler visited for Sunday late lunch at 3pm, it was very busy, but the staff were brilliant. Our order was taken quickly. Three of us opted for a roast and one of us for the fish and chips. The food was...

Came for Sunday lunch and it was delightful, will definitely be returning!!! All three courses was top notch.

A nice meal somewhat spoiled by being served on cold plates! Service was excellent and rewarded. Unfortunately the restaurant was only just warm.

Lovely relaxed atmosphere, fantastic food and the staff couldn’t do enough for us! I’ve been many times before and will definitely be returning!

Brilliant lunch out. Great food all round. Good service. Excellent choice on menu , especially for GF meals.

Met at the bar by a particularly unfriendly man, seemed like we were a nuisance. Waitresses and food was lovely, the roast chicken was amazing. Will come back but hopefully friendlier front of house next time

Amazing food ,the special board created by Shaun the chef is out of this world with great imagination, flavours and presentation. Prices very reasonable Would highly recommend

Excellent food and excellent service. I had the lamb and my friend had the fishcake. Beautifully presented and nothing was too much trouble. Will definitely be back.

We had a lovely meal here , the staff were very friendly & helpful, nice decor & the food was excellent, the only downside was that the food service was very slow . Otherwise, a good overall experience

The breakfast at the Red Lion is one of the best breakfasts you can get. The bar has been set high. The portions are so generous, everything is provided. If you want your eggs done in a certain way - this is no problem. Anna...

We went for a meal which was beautiful and due to the fantastic service from suze we decided to stay overnight. Absolutely lovely 80’s themed disco. Fantastic service. Thank you

Myself and friends ordered burgers advertised as 20% off when we came to pay no discount we ask why and Tracey the manager quickly turned the offer board around and said not tonight !!! What a joke losing valued customers this way. Get a grip this place is quickly going downhill

Went for a business dinner and the food and service were excellent. Would highly recommend it. Even had the quiz later on which was entertaining.

Great food. The pie tasted amazing. Lovely chunky meat and the pastry was lovely. lovely setting nice village interior decorations lovely . Excellent service.staff very friendly and attentive

An excellent Sunday Lunch! Lovely food and atmosphere. The roast of the day was pork, delicious and very well presented. We all loved it!

Our meal did not reflect the quality of food or service that we had experienced earlier in the year and can only assume that the chef and /or management has changed. Expensive for the standard and quality we received,disappointing to say the very least…

Amazing food and service for the family, and great to provide a Colouring sheet and colours for the kids

Went for Sunday lunch which we found expensive . Only one slice of beef - Mine was quite rare & fatty. The lady did replace for another piece not so rare. Not worth the money and won’t be returning. The pub was quiet when we walked in and now we know why.

Visited here a few times. The food is fantastic but the service is a bit slow…but worth the wait! Will definitely be back.

So had the very expensive one slice of beef for lunch and the knife they gave I could hardly separate the chewy fat sections never mind cut the supposedly undercooked veggies! So disappointed with this as it’s my local but circa £20 with a drink each for Sunday lunch you’d think it’d be at least edible just left paid and walked out just not good enough🤬

We visited for lunch on Monday. The staff were very polite, and the food very nice was well priced. Will go a again.

Don’t really like leaving bad reviews as we’ve been here before and food was great but Sunday lunch left a lot to be desired , the starter of prawn cocktail was lovely but the beef dinner me and my wife had was just awful , the beef didn’t seem cooked properly and it was basically all fat and not very warm either , my wife left all her beef but I tried but struggled to cut through it for the layers of fat , my son had fish and chips which he said was just ok and our niece had the kids sausage and chips , I would return as the food is normally good but I would never return for Sunday lunch and the cost was £87 which is a lot of money for fatty beef , and before anyone asks why we didn’t complain at the time it’s because when the lady came to ask if all was ok my son piped up quickly “yes thanks “ before I could say anything . The service is great aswell let me add and maybe our beef was a one off but it’s certainly put us off in future for Sunday roast

Been twice recently for sunday lunch and both times the food has been excellent and very tasty. It was extremely busy. Will definitely be returning.

We ordered Sunday lunch for four in the early evening. The food was not very good with tough beef and overcooked vegetables but we didn’t say anything. When the bill came we realised they had only charged for two meals. Being honest we brought this to their attention and they then produced a second bill. We asked if we could split the bill 50/50 to which they agreed and then produced a third total which was 3 times the original amount. When we queried this we were told it was because we didn’t order a dessert. We ended up paying £16.99 each for a sub standard meal. Needless to say we will not be going again.

We had a leisurely family meal - good choice of menu - everyone chose differently and everyone enjoyed their meal. Particularly the pate which is home- made. The bar area was full and lively. The restaurant area was quieter so everyone’s taste catered for, although...

Greeted promptly and immediately shown to our table. The menu is extensive and varied. We had beef stroganoff and sausage pie. Both were excellent. But save room for dessert, some great favourites and a few that you may not find elsewhere. The staff were attentive...

A quick Monday celebration, lady serving was really lovely, good varied menu, large portions and good food, we both would’ve preferred the gravy in separate jugs as there was rather too much but that’s a minor point. Would definitely be going more often, as we’ve...

The atmosphere and pub were lovely- felt very cosy inside and very accommodating having high chair ready for us. The fabric seats at the table were a bit grufty and had spill stains on them….. wipeable fabric would look much better. The portion sizes are...

Great food, friendly but very slow service. 2:30 hours for two courses. Never asked if we wanted a second drink. Half full on the day but one large party seemed to dominate proceedings. Massively overcharged us but not spotted by bill payer until after we...

I booked a Sunday lunch for my family on their website. I made a mistake on the numbers so I went into the site to edit the details. I was expecting a problem on arrival but, to my surprise, no issue at all. The staff...

Having not visited here for many years, I decided to visit with my family for an evening meal. The inside was clean, bright, fresh, and quiet. The food was of an outstanding quality and very much liked by all. The service was great and met...

Enjoyed the Wednesday fish and chip special . Excellent value and was delicious. Great service too. Will definitely return and will recommend to others too.

All my family had creamy garlic mushrooms and it is like they had run out of mushrooms we probably had 5 half mushrooms between us and the rest was just sauce. One had the fish and chips and the fish was very over cooked. The...

We both found the food exceptional and the kitchen was not phased when we asked for extra vegetables. No doubt the winter months will see some redecoration.

Another lovely Sunday lunch with quality meat, vegetables and roast/mashed potatoes. Friendly efficient service and 2 course Sunday lunch good value for money.

This is a traditional pub, steeped in local history. The food is exceptional, staff were very attentive. Always a great night out for us, or just to stop off for a drink after a long walk around Redbourne…The new owners are putting in a lot...

Good food, good atmosphere & friendly service. Special Wednesday offer on fish is highly recommended ! Only one criticism : Stop the silly "trendy" way of serving food on wooden platters, too small & not very hygienic. Also PLEASE serve a large fish on a...

Great food, great atmosphere, wonderful service. We would highly recommended The Red Lion for quality, service and price.

Excellent fish and chips . Great value for money. Fresh fish crisp Batter and homemade chips. We will definitely be back

Extremely friendly staff, clean and good food. Loved the fact that they accept dogs in the bar area and provided water for them. The food was good, hot and cooked well. Disappointed with ice cream sundae - it was really just ice cream and some...

Excellent fish and chips and great value on a Wednesday night. Will book in the bar next time though, rather than the restaurant area. Looked more cost in the bar.

Went there for sunday lunch with our 2 year old. Booked our table for 12.00 and we were the only people there for a good while, placed our orders and starters arrived very quickly (could have done with the kids meal at this point but...

Very friendly place food is very nice and a very clean establishment we have been a few times before and we have never been disappointed and Barkley our chow chow loves it too

Lovely lunch with excellent menu for my friends and myself on their return from a weekend away, totally enjoyable experience and I would highly recommend it to other people

Amazing food and service - very accommodating and patient with our two babies as well. Thank you very much!

Very disappointing Sunday lunch. Took my sister and her husband as a treat as had a nice evening meal a few months ago. But the Sunday lunch did not live up to expectations. Unfortunately the roast potatoes were reheats and the Yorkshire pudding was dry...

Usual high standard of food. Very pleased with everything. Great setting and friendly staff. Love the fact that you are able to enjoy your meal without any fuss. That means a lot to us.Will return when we can to hopefully enjoy a meal. In the...

Great venue . Food very good . Service great, Only problem they allow dogs to sit on customers seats !! Dogs don’t wipe their backsides or clean their paws ! Not really acceptable??

Just had a wonderful meal here tonight , service was excellent, the food was piping hot , All in all a pleasant place to eat ,Well done all

This is the second time I have been here for Sunday lunch and both times it has been both great value and really good food, in a lovely setting too. I think the staff are excellent, very courteous and provide a good service, will definitely...

Nipped in and was told by a friend if we do we’ll get 10% off the bill. We ordered a starter which to be honest wasn’t great half a ciabatta with two mushrooms for £7.95!!! Meal arrived was ok needed a lot of seasoning but...

Very disappointed, we have a pre order for a family event to celebrate my cousins 50th wedding anniversary having travelled from Canada . I chose Red Lion as we had been in a few times and had very attentive service and good food especially the...

We have been going to the Red Lion for many years and still enjoying it. Congratulations to the new owners for ensuring that quality and service is still top notch. We last brought friends for the Wednesday special - fish and chips. Excellent value for...

This was a birthday meal. First visit since the Red Lion changed hands, having been customers for 44 years. Staff were lovely. 3 different meals were very good quality and well cooked. Only small criticism is that one of our meals was lukewarm. But we...

Party of 5 on a Sunday. Service and staff were excellent. Nothing too much trouble and staff very attentive and helpful. Food was lovely, 3 had Sunday roasts, 1 duck salad from the special board and 1 steak. All cooked to perfection and the roasts...

It was spur of the moment to visit this pub. Last minute booking online, arrived to a friendly pub in a lovely location (raining but still nice). Staff were attentive and friendly, and did everything they could for you. Food was good- perhaps the roast...
