The Red Lion Table Table in Stratford-on-Avon

Went for lunch. Food was tasty and staff were friendly. Waiting staff were so friendly. Really sad to hear the place is closing, and the employees not being offered any alternative employment. Such a shame .

Great place to stop for a drink by the river

One of my favourite places in Stratford

Unfortunately my friend and I had a very poor quality scampi and chios for £11.99 today. Chips were burnt and very small portions. Puzzled as other reviews here are good. We definitely didn't get value for money.

Lovely surroundings right by the canal

Has a massive beer garden, which was quite busy

Nice pub very busy from opening friendly staff and they do proper beer like carling besides your other larger defo a place to call into for a bit of food or just a drink while in Stratford

Had a lovely roast beef dinner,Very tasty,service was fast and friendly,lovely pina colada cocktail.clean and tidy.

Nice town pub with lots of choice on the menu including Mocktails and plenty of outdoor seating close to The Royal Shakespeare Theatre

Service was great, friendly table service. Choice of ale non-existent and the food awful. Disappointing because 12 months ago we enjoyed a nice meal here.

Good value, food is ok, great locatoin.

A pleasant smart pub in the centre of Stratford with a large beer garden.

Amazing fish and chips and really good service and attention by John

Great service even though we were late. Lovely food as normal

Listening to Travis - Driftwood playing was the perfect atmospheric tune to this friendly charming pub. The beer garden overlooks the leafy canal and has plenty of well spread apart tables. The haddock, chips and mushy peas came as a generous portion and were delicious. Beef ale pie came out quick and was very tasty. Friendly staff a

A very nice place to have a meal / drink large indoor restaurant and a big outdoor area staff very helpful and food was done perfectly

Good friendly pub great atmosphere

Nice pub by the canel but closes early

Great service, very friendly and helpful

Lovely lunch here with hubby,freindly staff,very attentive and helpful great food,atmosphere and an enjoyable time,will definately return.

Good food at reasonable prices Very good service from friendly and efficient staff

Great pub in the centre of Stratford with canal views and garden at the rear. Reasonable prices and good ale. Will return soon 👍

Popped in for a quick drink after arriving in Stratford. Lovely friendly staff.

Very pleasant atmosphere,quite relaxed.

Large chain pub with a decent garden area

Right by the canal wonderful beer garden food looked real good although we didnt eat

Ellen was our server and last night she gave such polite, friendly and helpful service. As a former NVQ assessor in Customer Service I was most impressed with Ellen. Great atmosphere too. Thanks all.

Food should be good only with a drink

I highly recommend this stop if your are a tourist coming from abroad and looking for an authentic pub in town. It’s a big please to guarantee a place to seating, and open garden for a sunny day. The food is good, I have a chicken with salad and chips, their drink have good quality option for more decent price than in London. Just good time there and walking distance to the town main attractions.

Always welcomed with a friendly greeting. Staff are smiley and helpful while the food is delicious. Would be nice to have a view to look out on, but they can't move the restaurant unfortunately!

Weekend in Stratford upon Avon booked table 3.30 Sunday for lunch. Arrived a little early good service John very helpful and friendly. Had Sunday lunch good value and tasty meal. Thanks.

Decent food, exactly what you'd expect from a reasonable chain. Staff are absolutely lovely!

Just want to say a big thank you to the Red Lion who helped provide some shelter through the night to those affected by the fire in the early hours of the morning at the Crowne Plaza, was a credit to everyone whilst we waited for the fire brigade to put out the fire so a big thank you to those involved helping keep everyone warm and watered.

Very good good, generous portions and a lovely beer garden. Highly recommend the fish and chips, beautiful fish, light batter and not in the least bit greasy. Great chips. Very pleasant team. Definitely worth a visit.

Great value good, excellent friendly service and a lovely chilled atmosphere.

As a party of 6. Service was good. Food came quickly. Everyone enjoyed their meals. Fish pie was a bit dry . Needed more sauce for it to be more creamer.

Food very good the staff so friendy every time l'm in Stratford i pop in

Nice meal, good value, and friendly atmosphere

Lovely pub near the river. Friendly staff great beer garden

Plenty of choices for drinks on and off the tap. Food was OK, but nothing special. Everything was clean with lots of seating.

Wonderful service and food today!!! My server was Toni, she was lovely and friendly and was always smiling! I was served quickly and the food was lovely. Very glad I came here! Thank you 😊

Decent enough food and drink. Had to wait to be served on numerous occasions for drinks on a non busy day. Pity as a nice pub on the whole

We didn't eat here, just called in late on Saturday afternoon for a drink. A warm welcome, by nice friendly atmosphere, definitely go there again.

Went for Sunday brunch and drinks. Menu is limited but the food is delicious as well as interesting drinks. Vast sitting area- both internal and external. Bonus for pet owners as it is pet friendly and has good space. All orders are prepaid but served at the table. Loved the chicken wings with peri peri sauce.

Comfortable and clean, great service.

Cheap and cheerful good food and friendly staff

Excellent. Used loads of times. Always very good food and friendly staff. Highly recommend you visit

Lovely food, surroundings and staff.

In the heart of Stratford-upon-Avon, lovely little place to meet friends and catch-up over a quiet drink.

Really poor service, despite best efforts and being polite I struggled to even get a smile from the lady behind the bar. Atmosphere was very cold and lifeless, beer choice is rubbish. I'd recommend to avoid 👍

As an allergy sufferer, eating here was a joy! The chicken tikka was perfect, the gammon was great. Good choice of drinks and the service was top notch

Friday lunch friendly greeting by staff and service. Food delivered very quickly.

Nice food. Friendly staff. Large garden area.

Bar Staff always really pleasant to me.

Nice selection of beers and a great lunchtime menu. Good service too.

Popped in for a drink and some nibbles, lovely staff, beer garden was lovely too.

The staff were marvellous, one inparticular, I wish I could remember his name. He couldn't have been more helpful and kind. The food was just ok.

Good food reasonable price. Friendly staff.

Just stayed for drinks with family & friends 🍻 friendly staff, decent pint shame it shut at 10 o'clock .

We didn't have a reservation and it was a Saturday lunch time when the Stratford street markets were on and the whole town was busier than normal but we were given a table for four we were served by John and he was absolutely brilliant and professional he sorted our drinks order and later returned to take our food order we opted to eat in the restaurant area away from the bar area and it was comfortable and really nice. John soon returned with our food and it was delicious. Will definitely return next time we are in town and a special thanks to John and the rest of the staff for a very enjoyable time.

Great Sunday lunch staff couldn’t have been more polite and helpful , food amazing and so were the cocktails also very great value for Money . We will definitely be returning.

Food was lovely and service brilliant. We really enjoyed our visit to the restaurant section.

I watched a gentleman get kicked out for something he never started, the crew was quick to be in support of someone who actually caused the argument worst service I've seen in a long time very unhappy with the manager on shift at that time not even seeing what events actually took place poor service from the crew

Excellent food, staff courteous and knowledgeable. Lacked ability to cater for people with dietary limitations for people who have had stomach surgery.

Great place lovely food and perfect location

Good value meal today good service from staff friends atmosphere

Really nice lunch. Decent value and the service was very attentive, with a check in during the meal. Beyond what I'd expect for a pub. Food was good quality and reasonable portions.

This is the second time we have been to Stratford upon Avon and this pub is fantastic staff are always very friendly and courteous nothing is too much and the food wow don't know why people complain about this place if I lived hear I would be eating hear every week

Good food, Good service. Very pleased with the whole evening

I was there to pay for Xmas lunch in full. Excellent service.

Good food but had to wait approx 30 mins from order to food arriving. Place not even half full. Waiter did apologise.

We stopped here on the off chance for food Good atmosphere Good beer Lovely food 5 stars around

We ate lunch here today. My husband chose the steak and ale pie. Sloppy mashed potatoe, bullet hard peas, watery gravy and a very small "pie" arrived. I chose the fish pie and it was disgusting. Obviously microwaved within an inch of its life, and I found no fish, just several rubbery textured shrimps. No complaints about the service but the standard of food for the price, is the reason why people choose to eat at home these days. We will not return, and would simply say avoid.

Great value serving decent pub classics. As a party of eight the service was excellent with drinks and meals arriving quickly. Great location in centre of Stratford and handy if staying at the Premier Inn across the road.

Bit slow but very good location

Great food and we had a fantastic server.

Really enjoyed the food great staff would go again 5 stars

Lovely big pub, watched the rugby, was nice and quiet

Shown straight to our table, and drinks and food orders were taken very quickly. Disappointed that the Sunday roast was sold out. Food and drink arrived quickly, but the fish and garlic bread (not together) were both in need of extra cooking.....

Girls night out we had a fab evening

Amazing place, amazing staff! Thank you for for table 22🤩👍

Meet up with friends fab time ,the experience has not changed in all the years we have been going ,@John the waiter still as lovely ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Stopped there for a light lunch on the weekend. Nice traditional pub next to the river.

The food was disgusting! The gravy like water! Rude waiter because I ordered a child’s meal because I can’t eat a lot of food at one time! No, I’m not 12yrs old! The lite bites more expensive albeit not by much! Will never come here again! Disgraceful behaviour, no matter what I’ve ordered, I’m still a paying customer & would expect to be treated as such!

Amazing !! Best food, service and atmosphere! Came here (Stratford..) for my birthday and we took a while walking around the town deciding where to eat and I am so glad I went with my first choice as the service at Red Lion was fantastic. Meals were delicious and both me and partner came away feeling very satisfied and thoroughly enjoyed our meals here. Absolutely top notch service from both Mark and Remy.They were very accommodating to our needs and would definitely come back here again! Thank you x

Good value food, pleasant staff. Had food and chilled here waiting for RSC performance, which is just a 50 metres away.

Nice staff but the food was awful. Almost a fiver for 'cheesy garlic bread' which was no more 2 small slices. The smallest Beef & Ale micro pie I've ever seen and so called 'skin on chips' which were no more than a few frozen skinny French fries shoved into a deep frier were a joke. There as a couple at 5pm on a quiet Tuesday, despite an almost deserted restaurant area the genius in charge showed the loudest 4 people on the planet to a table right next to us who then proceeded to drown us out completely. Assume this place gets business due to its location and from first time visitors to Stratford as surely locals and second time visitors wouldn't tolerate it again.

Great place to eat. Not expensive either. Table table. Continuity of same staff. Excellent!

Fantastic early Xmas meal. John was excellent serving 9 of us.

Very helpful and friendly staff, parking for two hours free right beside

We have stayed in stratford-upon-avon a couple of times, and we ate here every night because they have excellent vegetarian options. The staff are friendly, professional, and accommodate your every need. Thank you, and we will see you again. Harry jackson

Good food, really good service and great prices for kids. Car park is a little small but no real issues in parking.

Great choice of food and value for money.

Decent sized beer garden. We had chicken wings, potato dippers and chicken goujons which were all pretty good.

Lovely Saturday afternoon pint. Fair prices and a beautiful garden area.

Pricey but nice location and lots of space

Booking a table is essential and can be done the night before. They have 2, 4, 6 or more seats if required. Table service was excellent staff friendly and helpful if you have any allergies or preferences to specific foods you can't eat. Very wide choice of food and drink on the menu. It's ideally situated by the river Avon and next to Shakespeare Theatre with a hotel opposite. Dining area is peaceful and pleasant. I can't rate this place any higher me and my partner are definitely coming back

Had a drink in the garden after a long walk. Service great, garden next to the canal. Didn't eat but what we saw looked good

Beautiful traditional old pub right by the Riverside. Beer Garden was stunning 😍 We loved it there.

Lovely outside area by canal,great stop off when sun is shining.
