About Red Lion
Red Lion on Bilston Road in Wolverhampton is a pub that runs a kitchen alongside its bar, with Caffrey's on cask and nitro as a pint option. The menu moves through pub-grub staples such as lamb chops, mixed grill and Bombay potatoes, served in a bar room where the counter staff pour drinks. It hosts large parties and works events, putting out full meals for groups, and a bartender staffs the bar area. Tap water is not provided with the main course, and diners fetch it themselves from the bar. Delivery orders have arrived missing items in the past.

“I was impressed by the atmosphere and fantastic service by the lady behind the bar who was incredibly professional and accommodating, a credit to your pub.”
- Lauren Chand
“DO NOT ORDER FROM THIS RESTAURANT!!! IF U WANT FOOD MISSING !!! I ordered nearly 50 pounds worth of food and fish pakoras were missing. When calling the restaurants to let them know I did not receive what I ordered. They failed to take accountability and send food that was missing. Absolute joke they do not take care of there customers and I warn others before ordering”
