Reviews in Coventry

A first visit after reading positive review but very disappointed. Service with a scowl pretty much sums up the experience . Our starters were thrown on the table in front of us, and I mean thrown ! No request as to who was having which dish Our main courses arrive and upon polite request for cutlery we where given 1 adult knife and 2 children’s ( we were 3 Adults) It was clear the young lady concerned was having a bad day but instead of addressing this the other staff gave her a wide birth. The food was ok the starters were not good value for money , the main was disappointing . With plenty of near by competition then a big improvement is required.

First visit for us and we weren’t disappointed. All the staff were very pleasant. Although it was busy our food arrived in good time. There was a decent selection on the menu and reasonably priced. We all enjoyed our choices and no complaints. Only suggestion I would recommend is to have a few lighter desserts on the menu, (pana cotta, crème brûlée, pavlova, etc. )as we were quite full but had a little bit of room for a something light, but the only desserts on offer were quite heavy. All in all we had a very pleasant experience and we will definitely be returning

We eat here a lot and have never had any issues, however the service was very poor on our most recent visit. The food was as good as always but we were asked if we wanted any sauces and they were not brought to our table, we had to go up and ask for them again. At the end of the meal, dessert menus were brought over but after 20 minutes, nobody had come to take our order, so we decided to get the bill. When the bill came it was quite expensive and when I checked it, it wasn’t our bill.

This was my first visit to The Red Lion and I will definitely visit again. It is a lovely, comfortable country pub, well signposted and easy to find with a large amount of free parking, an extensive menu and great staff. Service was quick, even though it was busy and we were not rushed at all, but staff made sure we had everything we needed and were happy with our order. Portions are generous, so bear that in mind when visiting. I am more than happy to recommend this pub.

Very nice

Very good food, generous servings, brill service. Been to the Lion a few times, never fails. Spot onm

I always enjoy going to the Red Lion and I would usually be writing a rave review for the but, unfortunately, on this occasion I can't. As usual, I had the Red Lion version of Hunters Chicken. Its usually very juicy and tasty. Monday night it was dried out, hard and the cheese congealed. I didnt complain at the time as I was out with my brother. Everything else was fine including my brother's meal. It won't put me off going again as its the first time the meal has not been up to your usual standard.

Great pub in a lovely location. Friendly welcome and service and delicious food. Looking forward to another visit soon

Food was really tasty and presented great . Survive was brilliant and no long wait. Can't wait to come back

Come to the red lion on Mother’s Day with 6 adults and a child. Service was good and friendly they also went out their way to check what my daughter could and couldn’t have with allergies and made her a garlic bread with vegan butter which made her very happy. All food tasted great and fresh trio off meats roast what a very generous portion.

Food was amazing as always. Only concern was a new girl on shift who got treated badly by manager in front of staff and customer

Great service and great food would highly recommended
