   Only stayed in Wallsall the night due to being on a course. But was passing the Red Lion and could hear great music inside. The bar area has a great vibe to it. The atmosphere and people make this pub unique. Felt happy and at ease and service was 5* Great choice of drinks and a great DJ. I sang a few numbers on karaoke. The sound was superb. Would love to go back to this pub!! Landlady had a great singing voice too!! Thank you for making the night so great! Wish i lived locally , so many pubs closing but this one I can't recommend enough!! Well worth a visit especially for Karaoke!! :)

   After walking for miles on a cold day, we went to the Red Lion for a drink and food. Wow, what a hidden gem! We were welcomed by the friendly staff, into a lovely friendly environment, filled with original features, wooden panelling and red hot radiators. The food here is fresh, home-cooked and delicious. Two meals for £12 is amazing value for the portion sizes and quality of food. My partner had the double cheese burger which came with chunky golden chips and a fresh, crispy salad. I had the lamb chops, which were served with a mountain of mash a boat of gravy and perfectly cooked peas and carrots (I normally leave the peas in pubs as they are either grey or undercooked). We ordered a side of onion rings as we were worried the portions might be small, but we needn’t have worried! The menu also had desserts on but we were too full to order any - trust me, we can usually fit a good pudding in! They also serve hot drinks if you just want a coffee or hot chocolate on a cold day. This is a real gem of a pub, tucked away in the centre of Walsall. We can not find a fault with it. Please give it a go, you won’t be disappointed!

   This is a great traditional pub right in the centre of Walsall. When we visited the pub it was really nicely decorated ready for Christmas. Staff were friendly in this nice cozy pub. Decent menu with decent prices. Definitely going to visit again.

   Brilliant little pub that's beautifully decorated all year round. Karaoke is an acquired taste and the beers are a generic for the black country but it's a well kept pub that always pulls a good pint.

   The food was not served to an acceptable standard unfortunately. I ordered a full English and not only was it missing some items, the egg yolk was dried, the sausages were small, dry and of poor quality, and worst of all, there were small hairs in the food. The quality was reflected in the price, as it’s cheaper than some other places. But I’m all honesty, it wasn’t worth sacrificing quality for lower price, you’d be better off going to Brewers Fayre around the corner for better quality.

   Have lived in Walsall all me days and never been to this pub in town. And I've missed out hugely! One of only a handful of original looking buildings left in the town centre and its a credit to the owners for keeping it looking as good as it is. They definitely have the best Christmas decorations / window display in Walsall town. Putting a lot of the " designer " / larger well known shops to shame! A nice warm friendly welcome on arrival, but I do think the music was just slightly high ( probably as I was sat near the speaker ) The pub looked nicely presented and clean and tidy and the amazing Christmas decorations throughout are a must see if your in Walsall over Christmas. The chap behind the counter was Polite, attentive and the food ( I had the Cajun chicken with jacket potato ) was lovely and well seasoned and the portion size spot on. They have an upstairs seating area up a spiral staircase but was closed off today ( I'll have to go back I think ) The toilets are round the back with an outdoor seated are for smokers It's great to see one of Walsall oldest pubs still survive amongst the all the same looking / charmless sort of pubs / eateries we get these days. So if your in town and want a place to eat that has ambience, a warm welcome, full of history and delicious food pop in you won't be disappointed!
