About This Pub
Ah, the Red Lion – it's one of those pubs that just feels like a proper local gem in Slough, you know? From what I've gathered from folks' experiences, the staff really go the extra mile to make everyone feel welcome, whether you're popping in for a quick bite or hosting something special like a baby shower. The food's a highlight too; they've got all the classics done well, from piled-high carvery plates to tasty burgers and even options for the little ones, and it's all at a price that won't break the bank. Plus, with a beer garden and easy parking, it's ideal for a sunny afternoon catch-up. On the flip side, though, it's not perfect – I've heard tales of them running out of favourites like the roast, which could leave you disappointed, and the drink selection might not always have what you're craving. Still, overall, it's a solid choice for a laid-back evening; just keep those little niggles in mind, and you'll likely have a grand time.

Nice friendly staff, good food, nice mixed atmosphere of an olde pub with a modern twist. Beer garden and a good sized car park. Top marks all round.
I held my baby shower here last week! From the get go Caz and the team were wonderful after moving location from another nearby pub who were rather rude.
Food was perfect, staff were very attentive, they even allowed me to bring cake for the event. Thank you all so much
I come this place every week. It’s amazing. The staffs are so friendly and kind with nice hospitality. The food is also wonderful. I always order some kids menu and my son really likes them. Great place to visit!!
Really friendly staff, nice food which was good value for money. A few choices of cask and keg beers. Easy to book on their website and staff were helpful amending it via a phone call too. Decent sized car park well signposted off the road.
It was a last-minute stop off before going to the airport, arrived at the Red Lion only to be told they had run out of roast. It was very disappointing as that was the main reason we went there. They also only had pineapple juice and no other juices. The food and service were ok, although not presented to a high standard. The burger 🍔 didn't taste as nice as I expected. They put the cod on top of the chips and bread on top of the cod, which didn't really make sense. It would have been nice to receive a plate for the teabags. They ended up on the table. Overall, it was just ok. My brother enjoyed the salmon. They have a really nice beer garden. It's a shame the weather was not that great to sit outside.
