The Red Lion - Newport

Lovely little pub, very friendly staff and the food was absolutely brilliant. Good value, too. Will absolutely be back.

Mid-week lunch for 3. Dining and bar areas spotlessly clean (as were the toilets). Good choices on the menu, just a few things not available (hence one dropped star). Service was excellent, friendly and attentive without being intrusive. Very enjoyable food choices though potato and leek soup would have benefited from more leek. Butty Bach on draft, excellent. Will be happy to repeat this experience.

We booked the red lion for celebration for 36 people. Communication before the event was brill, Abbie went out of her way to check we were happy with everything and to take orders before our meal, accommodating requests not even on the menu. On arrival, Abbie introduced herself and all the staff who would be serving us that night. The meals were enjoyed by all of us, the pork belly that I had was delicious and all the food was piping hot. The staff went out of thier way to accommodate our requests and were friendly and smiling throughout. I would highly recommend a meal here and would definitely book again for a family event. Thank you all so much

A really pleasant and easy experience from start to finish. The landlord emailed me the menu and I also had a call back to check on one of the items. Really pleasant staff, very friendly. Seated quickly, there were 10 of us. Food was really good, piping hot, decent sized portions and all arrived pretty much at the same time. Not overpriced at all my dad and his wife both agreed they are ditching their usual hangout and coming back to the Red Lion. Will definitely return. Thanks to all the staff and David the landlord. Thumbs up from us.

A truly brilliant experience. I want to say a huge thank you to all of the staff. We came in with a group of friends and family, the lovely waitresses welcomed us straight away and were so, so friendly throughout the stay. Always smiling, which puts a smile on our face as customers. The food was exceptional but what is perhaps the nicest touch is that when the chef finished, he didn’t rush away. He was speaking to all customers, asking if they’d enjoyed their night a real landlord. A pleasant surprise of a Sunday night quiz also!! Thank you to everyone at The Red Lion. You’re all fabulous
