Red Lion Pub

Awesome cozy British pub with some of the most delish beer-battered cheese curds I've had. Came in on a Wednesday night before a bucks game, and were able to squeeze in a happy hour drink. Our server was fantastic, she did a great job managing both the tables and the patrons at the bar. After whetting our appetite with the curds and an order of the Caesar Brussels sprouts, I was too full for a main but others enjoyed their burgers ($6 burger night on Wednesday!) My smashed peas and side salad were perfect. Would return and recommend!

As a soccer fan who used to frequent the red Lion each weekend for matches...WOW this place has fallen from grace. It's been a few years because we moved out of town but the breakfast was absolute disappointing rip off. $17 for a cold English breakfast which was honestly a pathetic excuse for a real English breakfast??? Get out of here. Avo toast was also very disappointing for $14 and tasted like it came out of a bag with quality equal to Taco Bell quac. Will not return. With this 'quality' I cannot imagine they stay open much longer...

I'm only reviewing the service and the Guinness. I believe it was Katie that poured my pint. I warned her I was a snob about Guinness. She took it seriously and poured a great pint. If I get back in town I'll try some food. I also tried the Old Speckled Hen, the pout was nice but I didn't like the beer, not a reflection on the pub though.Walking up to the place it looked cool. Inside I sat at the bar and liked it.

My weary traveler self needed a place to pass the time. The choice of entertainment was beer and footy. With only two games in Matchday 5 of the Euros, my butt became quick drying cement to a cozy barstool. Türkiye hit a pair of absolute piss missiles (watch the highlights) against Georgia to kick off my Tuesday escapade. My palate was opened by a Carlsberg via a suggestion from a woman whose taste cannot be questioned. Sage, you were right. Cheers.I have this terrible tendency to absorb any screen in a public space, so my absence of the bartenders name is entirely my error. It goes so far as to watching subtitled commercials about medications that I don't need. But my man chopped it up with me for a good while, providing company in the early stages. He later solidified his status with a sampler of this soccer ball cocktail promotion that any locals need to keep their eyes peeled for. Ingenious tactics dropping soon. Also, whatever Pineapple Express concoction he made for a gentlemen beside me looked pretty as can be. Magnificently vibrant, just like Aaron Craft's rosacea in the closing minutes of the Big 10 Tournament.As for the edible components of Red Lion, I may have choosing poorly. Either 1000 Island sauce is expensive or they have a lazy understanding of how moist a Reuben needs to be. I'm looking for the bread to soak through and eventually create orange trails from my hands to my propped up elbows. To give a shout, the portion was fat which is necessary for a $15 tag.I'd venture here for more brown liquid and soccer, but might snag a bite elsewhere at the halftime interval depending on future results. Portugal vs Czechia did cleanse my palate before some abysmal beach volleyball. Tarp off cellys are worth the yellow card in every level of the wonderful game.

I love this spot for happy hour and especially for their fish fry. The bar is English pub style. There is plenty of seating downstairs, upstairs, and out on the roof. There is always plenty of bartenders and servers who are perfection. They are quick, sweet, and attentive. My last visit was to watch a Bucks playoff game. They have plenty of TVs downstairs but also project onto a screen. The bar was busy but not packed or too loud. I had a nice time chatting with the bartenders. The fish fry, as always, was amazing. I love that they serve it with Malt Vinegar! It is one large fillet that comes over a bed of thick cut fries. Everything is fried to perfection; crispy and flaky. There is plenty of parking outside but I always recommend a ride share or bus. Especially if you plan to have a drink because their old fashioneds are excellent and kind of addicting!!

This is a real-deal British pub, from the outside to the inside. The English-pub vibe is dripping from the walls and ceiling! Gotta love that huge Union Jack covering the entire ceiling.We arrived mid-afternoon, so it was not busy. Our service was quick and the food arrived promptly. I liked that the menu leaned heavily towards English pub food items. The cheese curds had a light crunchy coating. My wife described her 'fish n' chips' order as the best she has ever eaten. The breading was light, flaky, crunchy. Not over-seasoned and oily. There was plenty on the plate for 2. I really enjoyed my Shepards pie. It was prepared just the way it should: loaded with meat, both ground and chunks of lamb. You could taste the red wine reduction soaked into the meat. All covered with smooth cheesy mashed potatoes. It was all washed down with a tall glass of Guinness.Cool pub. Really good food. I'd love to see it at happy hour or St Patrick's Day. We will definitely go back.

We loved Red Lion Pub! Their fish fry is one of our favorites in the city and they always have great craft beer options on tap. The old fashioned special on Fridays is a must!

Great, classic English pub with two floors of seating and a nice rooftop patio. Our server was very nice and had great suggestions, and our food came out relatively quickly. My husband ordered the Bangers and Mash, and I chose the Reuben. The Bangers came with 2 1/2 sausages on top of an extremely large bed of hand-mashed potatoes. So large, that cutting back on the portion size wouldn't have subtracted from the authenticity or deliciousness of the dish. The corned beef on the Reuben was tender, and there was the perfect amount of swiss cheese and fresh sauerkraut. The 1000 Island dressing was thick and tangy, and I appreciated it being served on the side. I ordered my sandwich with a side of "chips" which were thick steak fries. A great cut you don't see too much of anymore. For dessert, our server suggested the Beignets. There were six small pieces served flaky and hot. A fantastic ending to our meal. I only wished there was more powdered sugar ;) Red Lion has a great, spirited vibe that caters to everyone. It's a great place to add to your rooftop bar experiences.

First time here. I'm not sure if l, when we did decide to order it was a while before getting someone to wait on us. I'm sure us siting at a table having brought our drinks didn't help us. When our server did show and he was nice, however it take take over 20min to get water for the table. The food was ok. And this is just my personal option, the fish was a little bland, as was the breading and coleslaw. The fries did have some seasoning on them but some of them were cold in the middle. I don't know if coming back is going to happen, I know it just won't be first on my list of where to go for a fish fry.

Trivia is fun here and the baked tomato grilled cheese is amazing. Parking around here can be annoying.
