The Red Lion Shooters Hill in Greenwich - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Had the Roast beef Dinner, really not nice. Nothing had any taste, obviously frozen veg, frozen potatoes, new minted potatoes that were bright green, bright pink red cabbage, which was hard & still no taste, smothered in gravy which also had no taste. Came with a pig in blanket that tasted like a frankfurter sausage, insipid looking, and a big blob of what I think was supposed to be stuffing that was dark grey. Why you get those trimmings with Beef, is beyond me. My husband had the Roast pork , I tasted his, like my beef, with a blind taste test, you wouldn’t know what meat you were eating. Didn’t eat mine it was not nice. Don’t waste you money, steer clear. Admittedly they only charged for one dinner as I hadn’t eaten mine, but I would rather have eaten a lovely dinner and paid in full. No returning for us I’m afraid.

brilliant night and well looked after by everyone..Proper Pub.Will certainly be going again.Jem coles

After being told I had to pay £100 deposit up front for the use of a function room and told it was refundable, they then failed to refund me and ignored me. I paid my deposit in mid-January for the use of the room in early February. I gave them notice a full 10 days before the date to tell them I needed to cancel. They then promised a refund which never came. I called between 5 and 10 times across several weeks to be told 'The manager will call you back' 'We will get back to you' We will have it in your bank account' repeatedly trying to get a hold of someone and not a single phone-call back Quick to take the money but not so quick to quick to refund. I wouldn't pay any deposit at the pub and i'd avoid it if you can, regardless of a deposit or not. Shocking customer service.

The food is lovely at the Red Lion, we’ve eaten there about 6 times in a month and never been disappointed!! The service is very good as well and last Sunday the live singer was great!

Excellent, “real” Sunday dinner in a proper English pub. It’s been ages since I’ve had a Sunday roast this nice and I’m quite picky with them, so to find a pub like this near to where I live was wonderful. Really tasty, straightforward and unpretentious food, nice atmosphere, good pints, lovely staff. Like pubs used to be. Dog friendly too. Loved it, and will be back.

A lovely meal. The roast potatoes were delicious. The staff great and a good atmosphere. I definitely will return.

Visited on Sunday with 2 friends the roast was really nice and the staff were very helpful and attentive. The singer Katie was brilliant. would definately recommend and will be back soon

Beautiful food! Great attentive staff. Live music. Doggy friendly. Fab atmosphere . We had such a lovely time

After a well needed recent refurbishment this pub looks great inside and out. Sports screens where you need them but not overpowering and an open fire on cold days when you just want to sit relax. With a good selection of reasonably priced meals and friendly bar staff we love to dive in and have bite to eat , a pint when we have been for a walk in the nearby woods. The garden area has also been refurbished and looks great with an outside screen and dog friendly . With live singers most weekends adding to the London Pub atmosphere . There are a few local pubs to choose from in the area but with this one ticking all our boxes its the one we choose to use 👌🏼😃

The red lion is a very friendly pub lovely staff and it’s all very clean . Lovely garden. It’s my second time there this year meeting up with friends for lunch the first time the food was lovely but today it was very bad , my friends ordered sandwiches and asked if it was bloomer bread and got told it was when it came up it definitely was not bloomer bread and the butter in the bread looked like a cheese slice . I had a chicken burger it was like chicken you get from a packet that you would have in a sandwich definitely not freshly cooked. Then dessert that was terrible lemon tart was like mush especially for the price .

Gorgeous pub, lovely landlady, friendly staff, and fantastic food; made my evening here really enjoyable 🥰

We visited for lunch while walking the Capital Ring. After reading reviews online our expectations were not high, however we had a great meal in the sunny beer garden (which seems to have been recently renovated). We had fish & chips and sausage & mash, both of which were cooked to perfection. The only negative feedback is that the food took a long time to arrive, however it was definitely worth the wait!

This pub is great for families and has a very prime location on Shooter's Hill Road. I visited on Father's Day with my family and had great food, great staff and great service. Atmosphere is lively and would definitely 100% visit again in the near future!!!!

We visited yesterday, thought it would be nice to meet with some family over dinner. Arrived at the pub which was busy, we thought “this is a good sign” atmosphere was good (also show football in the corner). Sat down for dinner and a singer then starts, although she was good you cannot hear yourself think. This would be fine if you were going to someone where you didn’t want to speak to anyone, I couldn’t even hear my husband speaking next to me. The waitress couldn’t even hear what we wanted for food. Too much going on! Save your money on a singer and just have a good atmosphere. Seems they are trying a little too hard, just go with the flow. Extremely disappointed that they do not offer kids food or even a roast at a child’s portion size. Unfortunately will not be coming back.

WOW! Had the pleasure of visiting the Red Lion on Shooters Hill a couple of times, each time I/family and friends have had an experience (Gordon Ramsey would salivate at!) All the staff are so friendly, and quick to serve. Food is exceptional and not too pricey. I've had lunch today with a friend, we took a quick glance at the Valentine's Menu, which I think is both pleasing to the wallet (£25.00!) and to the pallet.. So, there's not just excellent food, live music, Thursdays, Fridays and if I'm correct, Sundays. The Red Lion is child friendly, dog friendly, people friendly and has a beautiful garden. What's not to like? This is truly a hidden gem on Shooters Hill. Myself, family and friends will be returning again and again. Thank you Red Lion! Bridget James.

Such incredibly friendly landlord and staff, really go above and beyond. Massive portions of home style food. Close enough to home and after two visits we are likely to become regulars!

Had a great timenin this establishment. I met a man called Nicky Tuvey with an infectious laugh who made my night. Will be back soon!!

We have been to this pub on several occasions on various nights and could not fault it, great staff, great food, good service. Unfortunatley our last visit was terrible staff were terrible food was below par, and one person was in need of a volume...

Friendly & welcoming when we arrived. Made the dog feel welcome with some doggy treats. Portions were very generous, and good value. Would happily eat there again.

This is one hell of a friendly place to go. The staff treat you like a long lost relative. Really good selection of beers, good quality food and great attention to your requirements, I have recently made this place my local and strongly recommended that...

The staff were lovely and welcoming, very friendly. The offers on food were great value and they seem to have a lot of different offers on at various times which I like. I like that they do discounts for service staff. Will definitely be back!

This is our second time here and first time eating. The portions are more than generous! We had nachos to start... wow they were GOOD and could easily feed 4! Two roasts, one chicken and one beef, I don’t really like having a roast out...

Been here twice recently as a group and were the only table eating on both occasions. Basic pub food, which in itself is no bad thing, and the food we were served each time was OK, nice but not spectacular. Both times quite a few...

We use the Red Lion regularly on Friday night so Mrs A doesn't have to cook and we can walk the dog in the woods. As others have said, it's noisy and locals are loud, but hey ho they're enjoying themselves. The food is simple...

Went to Pub with husband and two teenage children had the Sunday roast beef. It was the best Sunday pub roast I have had in a long time, and fantastic value for money and if you pay £3 more you get a pudding my berry...

This is the first and last time I come here. We came on Mothers day it was not very welcoming at all. The Menu was so limited, I was not told this when I emailed the booking. It was a 3 course set menu with...

popped in on cold afternoon for late lunch. 4 of us. Firstly, the bar is really warm and welcoming. Roaring fires. Beer was good, and bar staff seem friendly. It has a real local feeling without making newcomers feel uncomfortable. The menu at first glance...

In this little neighbourhood, there are a few places to go for drinks but I still prefer to go to The Red Lion, I met a lot of locals to catch up and very friendly environment. The staff was friendly..the disco DJ on Sat night...

I live nearby and popped in for lunch on a Sunday lunch time. When we got there, many tables were already reserved but we easily found a table. The bar lady asked if we were ordering food, and warned us to get our orders in...

I do love this pub, its such a great local so i will always come back and recommend it. The food is really poor though, everything tastes the same (fried) and its just not good enough to make you want to to eat there. The...

Had Lunch with friends, the chicken was tender and very tasty... portion is really good, really enjoy it! Atmosphere was great! Will definitely come back again.

I hate writing this as we all want this local pub to do well but the food here has been going downhill over the past year to the point where it is now inedible. In desperate need of some love and care in the kitchen....

Fabulous fabulous Someone was holding 80th birthday party for Mary It was so good to hear old music coming from one side of the pub Very entertaining

Great food, lovely and helpful staff. We will definitely be coming back here again and I will be recommending to friends and family.

Have eaten here 3 times now and every time the food has been shocking! Always takes AGES to arrive and quality and presentation is very poor. Food you get doesn't match to the description of the food on the menu. Fish and chips was dire-...

We had a lovely time, in the pub , meeting very friendly regular customers ,who also love it here. I'm a real ale lover and there was a great selection to choose from . The staff also very friendly and made us very welcome. We...

This pub has been renovated and offers a great vibe/environment. We ate here a few times and everything we ordered was of good quality and tasty. We love the They also have a beer garden at the back. It's now the pub we go to...

Just to point out that this pub is VERY dog friendly (we counted six on our visit) which is great if you like them but do avoid if you are not a fan!

I do not normally give bad reviews but in this case I must to warn others having had three meals here. The first was fine Cumberland sausage onion rings and mash. The next two were awful. After waiting 45 mins to an hour in an...

Lovely atmosphere with lovely food. Friendly staff. Daniel was particularly nice, although all staff were pleasant.

My wife and family have lived in the Shooters Hill area for the last 26 years. In all that time we have never had a decent local pub. Now the most recent managers of the Red Lion have changed that. A good friendly pub, close...

I came in on Saturday to watch the football with a group of friends. I was watching the football on one tv and rugby on the other, good stuff. Good selection of lagers, the burgers were great, bar staff were friendly, great times.

Great pub Visited the pub on Friday the pub had a great atmosphere staff friendly food great even the locals made you feel welcome would definitely be using this pub again

Sunday lunch for 3, very quiet in the pub yet still waited an hour for our food. When it came the roast beef was grey and ALL of the veg was raw! The gravy tasted of nothing and the chef blamed the potatoes saying if...

We visited this pub last Friday night whilst having a weekend away in London, and I must say, what an excellent find!! The staff and regulars were really friendly, and the pub was so cosy and warm, in fact the whole atmosphere was extremely welcoming,...

Arrived at 12:20 on Sunday to order some food but was told the "chef" would arrive 15 minutes later. Impossible to get even olives because the waiter (who was alone with me in the whole pub) "did not do kitchen stuff"! I left at 12:50...

The newly refurbished pub on shooters hill is a welcoming and smart new place. But the service is something that needs some serious work. We ordered the two course meal for £8 (great value) at 12.30pm and didn't get the main course through until over...

My wife booked a table for Sunday lunch today, and after a good long walk we were all looking forward to a nice roast dinner. We arrive a few minutes early and the pub was pretty quiet, the bar tender was scruffily dressed and on...

There has been a lot of publicity about this place being refurbished and starting to serve food. If its not actually our local, its near enough for us to be interested in a good pub lunch so we thought we'd give it a try. What...

Beautiful pub restaurant it was a cold felt no heating was on May it it was late We ordered food it was good The food is very difficult to normal pub food Food is served hot and tasty Pub is quite not noisy It had...

Nice place for a drink but could do with warming up a bit as none of the doors shut. Nothing that a half decent chippy couldn't sort out.

My wife and I enjoyed such a lovely sunny afternoons lunch in the pubs garden watching the Monarch Butterflies, and the Bumble Bees getting on with natures business. Our barman Dean was such a lovely attentive guy, and a credit to 'Team Red Lion'.

Popped in for a little nibble at lunchtime with the Mrs. Had a couple beers too. Recently been decorated. Looks new, stylish, fresh yet original and authentic. Staff were chilled put and friendly. Heineken and Amstel seemed the best choices for lager on tap. No...

We visited late Sunday afternoon after calling ahead. A great looking little pub with plenty of choices for ales, beers, lager and ciders. The decor and garden has been done to a very good standard. Comfy seats and sofa's. Food - Sorry guys but we...

We've been here for drinks quite a few times since the refurb so decided to try Sunday lunch. The service can be a bit slow, but the staff are friendly and the food is definitely worth the wait and very reasonably priced (big portions!).

A friend and I visited for a late lunch on a Sunday. This pub has recently been refurbished and is very pleasant. The menu isn't too large but is sufficiently varied to please most palates. I had Haloumi with ciabatta and olives. I ordered fries...

Does what you want for your local pub with a good selection of beer on tap tasty food with the choice you would expect. friendly service.

The Red Lion does not have pretentions. It is a traditional pub which has recently had a minor face lift. They now put a little more emphasis on the food and the menu relies heavily on traditional pub fare. All in all it is acceptable...
