Since we found this place, we have returned a few times. We have not been disappointed in any of our visits. Good food, good atmosphere and reasonably quick service.

Been coming here for years and the Steak and Ale pie will always be a winner. Try it and you wont regret it. On top of this the staff are friendly and very helpful. A great pub and also very dog friendly!

The red lion southwick, wow! What a bloody lovely country pub! The staff were incredible and nothing was too much for them, the portions were extremely generous and the food was home cooked, piping hot and super super tasty! The log fire and back ground music just added to the most perfect evening! Cannot wait to come back and enjoy and evening child free! Thank you to all the team at the red lion xx

This lovely pub has become our go to for the last few months, we have been at least once a week, the service is amazing, always perfect, and until today, the food has been outstanding, i chose the mint and lamb suet pudding as I had it before and it was divine, my sister had the same on my recommendation, sadly, this time it was very different, I'd say at a guess, the lamb was left over from Sunday, it looked very different from the first time I had it, the suet was pure white and flavourless, it was so thick it was hard to eat, the first time I had it the suet was thin, tasty and had a little colour to it. My other sister had fish and chip, the fish was thin and over cooked, so where the peas, she left half of it. The crumbles where only just warm and the chocolate bread and butter pudding had been over cooked and had very little custard. I'm so disappointed as we went there on my recommendation and it was not the best experience today.

Had a Christmas party meal last night with work friends. The food was absolutely amazing, everyone enjoyed the food so much, easily the best Xmas meal I've had out! Thank you ?

Yum yum had a lovely roast plenty of veg and lashings of gravy. Yorkshire pudding was simply scrumptious.
Lovely festive meal, food always great here. But lost a star as asked to move to empty table to finish drinks (1.5hr from sitting) straight after finishing dessert as another booking due in. Also no offer of coffee after moving tables. Fab food thou, maybe next time ice cream or cream with brownie as a bit dry without. Would not let this put me off returning, but maybe seat people where they can eat and finish drinks in a timely manner?

I go out for lunch regularly in the region and the Red Lion is by far the best. It was our first time but it will now never be our last. The menu offers a large varied selection and Sarah and the rest of the staff are all friendly and efficient. The log fire is a welcome addition. If you've never been I recommend it extremely highly. The food is delicious!! Thank you everybody!!

We had a lovely Sunday roast here yesterday. It was very busy but staff were really friendly even though they were rushed off their feet and service was good.

Three of us had a lovely meal here sat out in one of their Eco pods, which has an electric heater overhead to keep you warm.Service was really good: attentive, well paced and friendly. They were hosting a retirement party which started while we were there and inside the pub was full! Even this didn’t affect the service we received!The car park was virtually empty when we arrived at 12:30 on a half term weekday, but was overflowing when we left, due to the party. There is some additional parking out in the streets though.The menu was lovely and varied, and all three courses were delicious. I’d highly recommend this pub for a meal.

Beautiful Sunday lunch with the family. All 3 courses were amazing….prawn starter (including best garlic bread I’ve ever had), Big daddy roast dinner (huge) and finished with white and dark chocolate bread and butter pudding (to die for) The whole family loved their meals and we were all in a serious food coma ?? Sat outside in one of the pods, which had a very warm heater inside, First and definitely not the last visit to this beautiful pub.
