The Red Lion - Carte

Lovely Xmas dinner for 20 of us! Great service! Beautiful pub with beautiful features! The food was perfect! Thank you for having us and see you soon Rachel, Alex and team! P.s love the lady with the long dark hair, beautiful smile ………….

Impromptu family visit for tea after riding the Monsal Trail. We had steak and ale pie, mash, onion rings. Kids had burger and chicken tikka thali. Can't fault it. Great buttery mash, lovely pastry, crispy onion rings. The thali was huuuuge and all well cooked, very tasty. 100% recommend. Great meal.

The Red Lion must be the best looking pub in Bakewell. There are two separate but good sized bars, both with fabulous old beams on sloping ceilings. The floors are stone and the bars have nice stained glass panel work above them. Both bars also have real fires so we were cosy and comfortable as we enjoyed decent beers and nice service. Really good pub. Voir le carte

Nice pub, dissapppinted with the food. Ordered the chicken burger with skin on fries for £11.95. Waited 40 minutes and was underwhelmed when it arrived, a very boring not full plate. Got normal chips and a brioche with the chicken, a piece of lettuce and a little garlic mayo. The lack of any salad or coleslaw garnish meant it was very dry. The portion size was not proportionate with the price.

What a wonderful and beautiful local pub in heart of Bakewell. The food is fantastic quality and atmosphere by staff and landlord are first class. They make you feel welcoming and a relaxing. The atmosphere is out this world . If only go once you feel like it's a experience you will treasure and never Forget Well worth a visit. Well done to all the staff at the red lion Bakewell for great service

Visiting family and popped in for lunch. What a fabulous place with delicious food. Afterwards sat in the lovely beer garden for a few drinks. We were in Doggy heaven as lots of walkers and their dogs popping in for refreshments and snacks. A great little sun trap, even in October. Lovely quaint pub with very friendly and welcoming staff. Can’t wait to go back in March and visit the lovely Rachel Alex again and try their new menu as the food was fabulous Voir le carte

Pathetic, we were a family of 6, ordered drinks but when we tried to order food we were told sorry no they only accept orders on table of four or less?! Husband said can we order as a table of 4 and a table of 2 and were told no not really ridiculous, they lost a lot of money from not just us but quite a few others who were told the same, the red lion is the sort of place that doesn 't care as they know they will get the passing tourist trade. Well they won 't be getting ours ever again.

We stayed at the red lion for two nights. The accommodation smelt of mould and had mould and wet all over the windows, on one wall and was mouldy in the shower. The toilet had not been cleaned, with cleaning fluid left on and poo splatters. The sink was badly cracked. We were over looking the road which was noisy and the water system was also noisy. Could hear people in next room coughing as walls thin. Asked to change rooms but nothing available, mentioned the mould and was told ‘ no one else has complained’ and no offer to clean it. Mentioned the toilet being dirty and was told’ it’s cleaned every day’ . Was cleaned after but still dirty. Entry in out when pub closed via steep fire exit wh...

When we arrived around 6:45pm we asked if we ordered food at the bar, and a member of staff said yes. After finding a table we then ordered a round of drinks (not cheap! whilst we decided on food, and were given menus and told which items were sold out. So, three members of staff by this time knew we were going to order food. Then when we tried to order, we were told that the kitchen was only serving people who were staying in the B&B or had a booking. This had never been mentioned before and we had just paid for our drinks. The barman apologised but said nothing could be done, and even once he explained the situation to the chef, the chef would not serve us. I would have liked to properly c... Voir le carte
