The Red Lion - Eastleigh

Five of us booked for an evening meal. We had a mix of Thai, pizzas and English food. The service was excellent and all the food delicious. We had a bit left over all nicely packaged in doggie boxes. The restaurant was very clean and tidy. We’ll be back!

Lovely meal, freshly prepared, pizza and Thai curries were delicious. The baklava was absolutely fabulous I will be returning just for that ! Thank you for looking after us.

The roast was like a school canteen. Used to really rate the food here but it was a shamble! Tinned carrots? Frozen Yorkshire puds? Also the price has increased!

Disappointingly unwelcoming. We had planned a nice walk in the woods with the red lion as a halfway pit stop for a pint and also good reason to check the place out to see if we would return for a large family meal next week, as liked the look of the menu online. The place was half empty but we still checked we were ok to stay just for a couple of drinks and were told yes this was ok but only for 1 hour ?! Sat by the window- when I went to buy a second drink we were asked to change tables- albeit politely- I just assumed someone had requested that table, no problem but why no reserved sign? Well by the time we finished our second drink the original table was still unoccupied. It seems clear that this PUB thinks it is an eating establishment only! Such a shame as was excited by the prospect of Greek hospitality and cuisine. It hadn’t got any busier by the time we left. Next time we will choose our walk and pit stop around a nice country pub where it is run as such!

An excellent meal for two on a Friday lunchtime. Excellent customer focused service really helpful. A good selection of drinks and quality food. The only issue I have is with the generous portion sizes, particularly the ribs, I just could not eat it all. Overall an excellent visit meal and will visit again.
