The Red Lion - Carta

The food was excellent, with delicious chips that could possibly be the best in the world! Additionally, there was enjoyable live music playing on a bright early September afternoon.

Fantastic food here. Dog friendly. Nice and friendly staff. Clean toilets and bar. There was a fantastic lady called Julie sat outside playing a piano with a lovely voice. Made my holiday. She made me feel relaxed and so chilled. She made the visits, which were 4 of them, by the way. Well worth a visit

Always holiday in Weymouth. Always visit the Red Lion. Food outstanding. Try the Trawler Board. Absolute heaven. Staff very welcoming and first class. Been going to Red Lion for many years. Never been let down. Dogs welcome outside. Got a rum bible. It is a bible to rum drinkers. Many different flavours of rum to try. Ver carta

The food at this restaurant is absolutely delicious. We enjoyed our dining experience here and went for dinner two nights in a row because it was so good! The burger was delicious, the fish of the day with crushed potatoes was fantastic, the prawns were excellent, the haddock tacos were really good, and the staff was friendly.

We called here for a drink intending to order a meal. The chef came into the bar area and made a remark to one of the young ladies serving the tables. She told him to get back in the kitchen but the reply he made to the young lady took my breath away to think he spoke to her like that in front of paying customers. No one should be spoken to like that and certainly not in the public area . A gentleman at the bar remarked on it and the young lady said he’d had a bad day in the kitchen. We didn’t stay to eat !!

We have visited twice now, and each time been really impressed with the food and standard of service. I have read some reviews complaining about the no children under 10 rule, but we don 't find this a problem, as not everyone wants to be surrounded by small children when they dine out, and there are plenty of other pubs that do cater for the family. The food is amazing (especially the seafood sharing platter), and we were served by a very lovely waitress who couldn 't do enough to help. All this and a lady singing and playing the keyboard beautifully too! What 's not to like. Ver carta

Very shocked to be turned away this evening. Arrived with my wife and daughter early for food and the pub was empty. I was very abruptly informed that I couldn 't come in as we had a child under 8. An assumption by the very rude bar steward was made of my daughters age. Surely, a polite ' can i ask your childs age ' would have been more palatable. I politely enquired as to why this policy is in place and was told by by the same bar steward that 'they pride themselves on being an adult environment. So, do they consider anyone over the age of 8 an adult? Still bemused a couple of hours later i looked at the web site which stated they would allow 'well behaved children over the age of 10 '.

We had a very disappointing evening at the Red Lion last Saturday. The chef was delayed therefore we were unable to order until he arrived. When we ordered we were told that there was a 45 min wait which was fine. During this time there appeared to be a fracas in the kitchen the chef stormed outside collected all the menus threw them in a tray inside! People were complaining the couple next to us left. After over one a half hours we asked if our food would soon arrive were told it was about to be plated up should be another 10 minutes. Our meals eventually arrived looked like the food had been thrown on the plate. The Jurassic chicken looked like a tin of tomatoes had been emptied over in bo...

We've visited Weymouth for many years always fancied trying the Red Lion. This year for the first time there was free tables outside, so finally we got to try it out. Would love to say it was worth all the waiting however I found it a poor experience that I'll not be repeating. Started off well barman who served us was polite so credit to him. Whilst having our drink there was an older lady sat at next table, her daughter arrived with her 2 children who looked around 7-10 ages. It soon became apparent that children are not permitted. That is acceptable obviously needs to be adhered too. Was is unacceptable was the manner in which the situation was handled! The poor woman was literally pounce... Ver carta
