Delightful pub on the banks with glorious views of the River Severn with plenty of outdoor space to accommodate many people on sunny days. Being at the end of the Wainlode flood plain, the Red Lion has a long history of being flooded or close to. Excellent friendly service with well kept ales and lovely home cooked food from local produce.

Beautiful pub in a beautiful location, such a lovely relaxed atmosphere. Go for a pint by the river with family and friends and you’ll have a wonderful time. However, I wouldn’t return for food. I had the honey sesame chicken with chips and ‘slaw and you could smell the oil was old and the food was over fried and it was very much the same for my husbands scampi and chips

Amazing place by the river. The food (Sunday menu) ....i could say is one of the best. The lamb, is an A+, the chicken also very good. Only 3 deserts, but all of them excelent. The service an A+ as well. To order and collect the food, very well orginized and fast. We really enjoyed of a lovely sunny day by the river and very good food. We will come back for sure.

My wife and I decided to treat ourselves and go out for Sunday Lunch, so on the recommendation of friends chose the Red Lion. The first thing I noticed was that there is plenty of off road parking, a real plus! We had booked an inside table but were informed by a very friendly staff member that we could also eat on the riverbank, and since it was a lovely sunny afternoon we decided to trade the charm of the restaurant for the view of the tranquil river Severn. The staff were working very hard with their never ending trips across the road to the riverbank serving food and clearing tables. Our drinks were served promptly by the manager (I had a great craft ale), a lovely young man who talked me into having the lamb (a little more expensive but well worth it!), and took the time to chat with us for a few minutes, really appreciated. The food, although on the expensive side was all very good and served as a generous portion, so definitely worth it. All in all, a really lovely afternoon.
