Red Lion — Restaurant in Stockport

This review is really just about the quality of the cask bitter. My impression is that the food is the main driver, the updated conservatory is beautiful. I have been in twice recently & on both occasions I was very disappointed with the beer quality. The first time the member of staff I could hear struggling to pull the pint, & I was immediately suspicious. The pint I was handed was clearly from the end of the barrel, it was cloudy & had the off smell. I pointed out that this was not right & reluctantly the pint was changed but clearly the staff had not wanted to change the barrel. Second visit the barrel had to be changed again & I don't believe in coincidences. It's a pub I want to be successfu! The food looks fabulous & it's busy with diners However with a small choice on cask beers they need to be right! Clearly I did mention to the staff but twice at...

Thankfully I can give zero stars - because that’s what this joke of a pub deserves.

Avoid the king prawns if you do go - as they’re barley prawns and charge £9 for a pretentious portion that tastes like Iceland’s gino decampos line - (ginos are...

.Myself, Girlfriend and our combined 4 kids went today for a late lunch, our first full team outing in a long while ! Most of us had the featherblade which was amazing the two girls had something off the kids menu both enjoyed what they had. Service was brilliant really liking the new beer garden can't wait to see the new inside soon.

Been here many times now and the Sunday roast is amazing especially the lamb. Service is always superb, one of our favourite places to eat.

Went in Thursday with a friend and had the steak and Ale pie with mash , I have to say probably the best pie I've had in years. The gravy, mash and greens are all amazing. Great service again and to top if off the bill is 25% cheaper on a Thursday. We will be back probably...
