I haven't been to this bar for years as I wasn't impressed with the food. I'm so pleased I went yesterday. The food was amazing and the special menu has a brilliant choice for Β£6.99. Amazing food lovely staff I will definitely return
Love this place, been a number of times, it never disappoints, yesterday for the 1st time I had the lunchtime special Β£6.99 for a 3 courses once again not disappointed was stuffed. Great value for money and staff very friendly.
Came to celebrate my birthday today and did I make the right choice! Everything we had was delicious, generous portions and all the staff were lovely. Highly recommend eating here. Thank you.
Excellent food, real good value for money, lovely staff, I can't fault it at all,,, fabulous... occasionally you wait a little while for food but it's always beautiful & piping hot ππ
Food was amazing but not as amazing as the staff! Will definitely recommend an revisit when back in the area.
We meet once a month at the Red lion Β£6.99 special well worth the money menus from month to month is a little different always delicious & very hot service from the staff is first class & all very friendly we are now planning to pre order our festive menu for beginning of December well organised pub

Every time we visit the Red Lion the food is exceptional! The staff are always welcoming and attentive, very highly recommended!
Food was delicious. Staff were very friendly, would highly recommend going.
Will be returning ππ
We came to the red lion for the first time last night to meet up with family who were up visiting for a couple of nights. Loved the relaxed atmosphere in the bar/bistro area food was lovely and hot and really tasty. We will definitely be back :)
Service and food perfect . We hadn't booked but the waitress jiggled things so we could get a table
Lovely pub with a good range on menu, (although would be nice to have some tasty lower calorie options) staff were exceptionally pleasant, was with a large party but everyone enjoyed their food. Service in terms of time food taken to come out was a bit slow - but again was with a large party and I'd rather this than have reheated food. Will definitely be back
Highly recommend π (good with children too)
First time there for the Sunday Carvery. It was delicious! Would highly recommend π pudding was very nice....π
Visited 29 July.
warm welcoming staff accommodated us, even though we had not pre-booked for a busy Saturday night. Food was very good, I would recommend the Beef Blades, generous portions. Option of a free starter, or a free dessert. The dessert was big enough for two to share. Will we go back, definitely.
A short walk from West Monkseaton metro is the Red Lion. I love a carvery so me and friend tried here, and it did not disappoint. One the best carverys ive had. Fresh veg, large homemade yorkies (which tasted great) and lots of meat. The turkey was fresh and come.with 3 large slices. So all in all excellent value for money. and we will definatly be back.
Only little negatives, they had no beef π₯, which Turkey and Beef is always my go to meats on a carvery. We were advided we could wait until four if we wanted beef and our table was a little squashed inbetween the bar and another table.
Really impressed with our visit to the Red Lion pub this evening. 6 of us ate, 3 kids and 3 adults, kids eat for 1p before 6pm. The food was freshly made and the kids portions were very decent. Big portions for the adults too. Would definitely recommend for good pub food.
Cracking food, really good staff well worth visit and prices,only one slight complaint not everyone likes brioche buns but totally recommend the place.
The 3 of us had a beautiful meal here on Monday & a special offer if you choose from the special menus you get a free desert. Eton Mess x 3 it was, served by a lovely Lady. Thank you. Would highly recommended this place. Lovely & spacious inside & lots of seating outside.
Lovely cosy pub and even lovelier food. The lasagne was delicious, pork belly fabulous, burgers went down a storm. Home made chips were also fab. Lots of options for drinks. Took our dog who also had a lovely time with the other dogs in the pub! We had a really lovely meal here and will certainly be returning.
Went for lunch, had fried black pudding with pepper corn sauce, amazing, and the best steak and ale pie I've tasted, full of tender steak with a light puff pastry top. The staff were all great, attentive and very friendly, big thanks to Will for making me laughπ
The best pub food I've had in a long time we had a beef sandwich with proper home made gravy and proper fresh skin on chips and the homemade lasanga was also fantastic and at 2 Courses for Β£9,95 it's great value for money also will at the bar was very enthusiastic about the food which is great to see.
We will be back.
Good menu, lots of choices and very reasonably priced. Staff pleasant although we had to remind them to serve our sweet. Decor leaves a lot to be desired but couldn't fault good value of the meal.
Six adults had lunch at the Red Lion today, the menu was varied & interesting. Everyone thought their meal was excellent, really tasty, hot & a good portion size. Staff were friendly & the prices were reasonable. Would highly recommend a visit & we'll certainly be back.
Great place with lovely friendly staff. Food was served quickly and was delicious. Great menu
Fantastic food! Service was impeccable. Staff were friendly and helpful. We used the eat out to help out discount but would have quite happily paid full price
Food was unreal and we even had a little friend join our table and tell us about his walkies and where his favourite spot to eat was
Amazing food! Lovely staff, very welcoming β€οΈ been years since I've been in. Great price and portions xx
