Nothing fancy here but good value pub grub with their own brewed beers on tap. Cheaper than other pubs in area and plenty of vegetarian options.

Depending on what you expect from a place in Soho, your opinion may vary greatly about Red Lion. I really liked the place. Decent prices, nice vibe, nice staff. I was downstairs where only drinks are served but upstairs has THE vibe. Cozy! The only thing missing was some background music, especially upstairs. It didn't really make so much difference when you heard people talking and laughing though. It became a little odd when there were not too many people. Awkward.
Anyway, I decided to go for 4 instead of 5 stars just because of the toilet. The fact that the ladies room is located upstairs with no sign to indicate so is not a 10/10 idea. It's not convenient on many levels, starting with girls being lost, having a painful period, to being pregnant. It's really not comfortable (though the toilets were really nice and clean). Some would say you don't go to pubs when you're pregnant but when you wish to have a nice time in a quieter place in Soho and have food (don't forget that it's only served upstairs), it may become problematic. In my opinion, it's just something that may cause trouble which could already be avoided a long time ago.
Overall, highly recommended.
Best fish ans chips we had in London !
Nice staff and very warm place in the old traditional pub style
Chill ambience!
We stopped here for a quick beer and cider. It was really good mixed with the nice ambience.
Lovely old pub, nice service, clean toilets and well kept beer 🍻 what more could you want.
A fantastic Sam Smith pub. The interior feels as though you're in a gorgeous paneled time warp downstairs and the upstairs dining area is like a country hotel. Open fires add to the character. With amazing value beers and decent food you can't go wrong. The great staff were just the icing on the cake. With so many pubs competing in the area these guys are doing something right. Defo drop in for a pint to break up your shopping or sightseeing or grab a bite for lunch.
Lovely little haven with the excellent choice of Samuel Smiths drinks and snacks. On this visit I went for the stout which cannot be faulted. Will always visit here again.
Place where you can experience how the pubs were looking 200 years ago in werry best of the ways. Both front and back rooms are nice and with warm ambient from oaken boards on the walls and cozy fireplace. Service is good and beer cold, smooth and tasty.
This is my latest favourite place, will go there again soon. Thumbs up!
Whenever I go here I can find somewhere to sit. I like it here, lots of character. I like the beers though even here they are getting more expensive. It's still my favourite pub though.
Enjoyable Sam Smith pub. Very nice upstairs dining. Good food and pleasant staff.
Quality Sam Smith's pub. Reasonable prices pints and food is offered upstairs. Aircon inside and seating available outside. The staff were friendly and efficient too.
One of my favourite places in central London for a pint.
With comfy armchairs and a warming fireplace, it really gives off a nice cosy vibe.
Traditionalists as well as visitors wanting to experience a traditional British boozer will appreciate the the aesthetics inside this lively pub. Think panelled walls, ornate oil paintings. With 3 bars spread over 2 floors, you won't go thirsty Some beers are excellent value too (for London). I paid £3.50 for my lager. Staff are friendly too.
It's the kind of pub I'd expect further outside of zone 1: cosy and traditional. My go-to pub in central.
During our latest trip to London we stopped here to have a quick lunch.
Burgers are very very tasty! We had a great lunch and would come back here again in the future.
Thumbs up for the Red Lion!
Food excellent. Fish and chips best in London, fresh and tasty. Staff friendly and welcoming.
