By far best pub food I’ve had in Houston. Ordered the Irish Beef & Guinness Stew with vegetables served inside Yorkshire Pudding. Portion was generous and delicious. Guinness on draught paired perfectly with stew. Can’t wait to come back and try Brunch and other menu options.

The Red Lion Pub is a cozy, friendly and lively atmosphere for a pint, or two !
English atmosphere with great food – from traditional fish & chips, to curry and steak dishes.
I have been visiting the pub for nearly 20 years on a WEEKLY basis with my mates.
Parking is not well lit and we have had a few incidents. But all in all it’s a great place for us.
TV location and programming is not great, and it loses the draw as a sports bar. But what it lacks in sporting interest it makes up with food & drink.
The outdoor seating is fantastic and generally quite crowded.
Suggest reservations if one prefers outdoor seating.

We went here for Sunday roast. I had the beef and my wife had the lamb. Both were excellent and went down well with the Strongbow and Guinness we ordered. We also got the blackberry apple crisp and the bread pudding. The crisp was taken care of at the pub and we took the bread pudding home to add some whiskey to it to soak because that’s how it’s best. It was our first time here and we were very impressed how authentic a pub the place is. The minute you walk in the door, you get transported across the pond. If you have not been here you must go. If you have been here you must go back. I know we will!

I felt transported to the UK while I was there. Good selection of English beer a long with local favorites. Menu selections was top notch with some fantastic options on offer. I settled on the fish (cod) pie with peas and it was simply awesome. There was some great desserts available too but I was stuffed!!

Found another great Triple D place. The bartender was great. The drinks were very good and the food was outstanding.
We had an appetizer and two entrées, and everything was excellent.

Fish & Chips, Fisherman’s stew and sticky toffee pudding were excellent (though sticky toffee pudding wasn’t “traditional”)
Sausage roll was meh at best.
Seasonal drinks (Maple Old Fashioned) were excellent!

Review: The Red Lion Pub – Classic Comfort with a Spicy Twist
The Red Lion offers a wonderfully comfortable and consistent British pub experience that manages to surprise you with a unique culinary flair. Stepping inside, the atmosphere is immediately cozy, often charmingly decorated to match the current season, making it a great spot for both regulars and newcomers.
Food: Unbeatable Fish & Chips and Indian Infusion
The standout meal here is undoubtedly the Friday Fish and Chips special—it truly cannot be beat in terms of quality and value. Be warned: the full order is absolutely massive, so ordering the half portion is usually more than enough for a satisfying meal.
What makes The Red Lion truly interesting is its subtle Indian flair woven into the British menu. While it remains a pub at heart, the flavor tones often carry a hint of South Asian influence, providing a delicious and unexpected twist to traditional fare. Beyond the specials, the overall menu boasts a good variety of satisfying options.
Service and Practicalities
The staff contributes positively to the relaxed environment; they are consistently friendly without being overly attentive, allowing you to enjoy your meal and company in peace.
When it comes to practical matters, parking is plentiful, which is a huge plus for any popular spot. However, if you are expecting deep discounts during Happy Hour, you might be slightly disappointed, as the savings tend to be minimal (around $1 off beers).
Overall, The Red Lion is a highly recommended spot for great comfort food, a warm atmosphere, and that subtle, intriguing Indian dimension that elevates the standard pub fare.

I had the special for Tuesday. It was brilliantly cooked. The ribs were tender and moist. The chicken was still juicy. The curried potato salad blew me away. The atmosphere was gorgeous. I love this place. It will be a regular spot for me as soon as we get moved down here.

I stopped by this spot on a whim, and it quickly became one of my favorites. The service was excellent; our waitress was friendly, attentive, and quick with recommendations, and the bartender knew their beer selection inside and out, offering great pairings for our meals.
Speaking of beer, what a selection! From local craft brews to international favorites, there’s something for everyone. Perfect for sipping while catching a futbol match.
I ordered the full English breakfast, and it was perfect, savory, hearty, and delicious. Everything was cooked just right, from the sausage and eggs to the grilled tomatoes and beans. Honestly, the best I’ve had outside the UK. My friend got the fish and chips, and it was equally impressive, crispy, golden batter, flaky fish, and perfect fries on the side. We were both seriously impressed.
The atmosphere was electric, especially with the Chelsea FC match playing on the big screens. A home for Blues fans, full of energy, camaraderie, and cheer (and maybe a little chanting!).
If you’re looking for great food, better beer, and a fun vibe, especially during match day, this is the place. I’ll definitely be back!
