Red Lion - Shrewsbury

The restaurant offers a variety of sizable chicken substitutes, but their cauliflower wings really steal the show.

The restaurant is very affordable and enjoyable. The portions are generous for the price. We ordered the vegan lasagna and even my two sons finished it all. We also ordered diced potatoes instead of chips, which were tasty and a good value. For dessert, we tried the vegan banana cheesecakes, which didn't actually have bananas but were delicious with strawberries instead. I recommend making a reservation before going as it's a popular spot with limited tables. The staff initially seemed cold but warmed up to us eventually. I would definitely return. We spent £50 for a family of four, including adult meals, starters, sides, drinks (including two pints of beer), and desserts. Excellent value for money. (Updated rating as of January 5, 2023)

There are many chicken options to choose from, but the flower cabbages stole the show.

The restaurant is very affordable and pleasant. The portions are generous for the price. We tried the vegan lasagna which even pleased my two boys. Instead of chips, we opted for diced potatoes as the chips were not vegan. They were tasty and well-priced. For dessert, we had vegan banoffee cheesecake. Although it had no bananas, we were able to swap for strawberries and it was still delicious. I recommend booking a table in advance as it gets quite busy and space is limited. The staff seemed distant at first but warmed up to us over time. I would definitely return. Our bill came to £50 for a family of four (including adult meals for the boys) which included 4 mains, 3 sides, 4 drinks (including two pints of beer), and two desserts. It was great value for money.

I love the variety of chicken substitutes at this restaurant, especially the cauliflower wings. I could definitely survive on just those alone.
