pub is great, beer is good and well priced, food how ever is poor and quite expensive ours also took 40 minutes to arrive on a lunchtime!. i would recommend the pub for a few pints

an excellent place to drink, food is very good, it even has a good smoking area, it is also far enough out of the centre to put off any undesirables frequenting the place.

I am very pleased to hear Fullers have now got the Red Lion, lets just hope that their experience in the pub business shows through and improves the Red Lion and makes it part of the pubs to visit list again, went in week before last the they were legally allowed to give a 10% head on a pint! did top it up reluctantly

beer expensive and the food is average but expensive, would do better if it catered for drinkers more , very clean and tidy since the refurb though

The George and Dragon, Wendover
could be much better as it still has great character, doesnt open long enough to attact drinkers

bar staff are friendly and toilets are clean, thats all that is good about the Shoulder. the shoulder has been ruined having to q for 20 minutes for a pint while people faff around ordering food is not on. it would be better to have table service and look after the drinkers. if this happened it may attract the crowds that went there in Cath & Rogers day. so much potential, be good if Wetherspoons bought the place!!!!!

poor service and short measures what more can i say other than it is not a patch on what it was a few years back, which is a shame

don't get in as much as i would like, but is still the best pub in Wendover and by far the best for watching rugby

tried the food again, still very poor and not worth the money, i will try again next year!!

booked accomodation at the Red Lion for family, spoke to the Red lion and told no late booking prices! so i went online and saved over �23 a night! shame the Red lion cannot do the same.

We had our work Chrismas lunch there yesterday. The food, service and the beer were all spot on. i would recommend this pud as one you must visit.

i am pleased to see that other people have made honest comments on this site, i use this site all the time for finding nice pubs to visit, but have found many of the comments made by eamon-tabasco-boy's are very personal and quite offensive to say the least. i do not lie. there was five items not available off the menu when i tried to eat there, this was only 7pm!
i went there two nights later and was informed that the guiness was off. i gave it another go last week and left very dissapointed again. please sort out the Red Lion marstons.
i ended up in the Swan and the K&Q, both of which were spot on.

the hob is still a good place to drink, gents toilets do need refurbishing asap

a very good place to drink, very friendly staff and beer is good,
food is not bad either

food ok but it can't call itself a real pub! it s a restaurant chain pub with no atmosphear. the garden is ok in the summer. getting served is a joke you Q for ages behind people ordering food or trying to pay (the bill is almost always wrong)

Since my last positive comments about the Red Lion back in April, what has happened? loss of atmosphere, poor beer and food from the menu always seems to have run out. but at least the toilets are still clean.
charging for parking is not on either! hope it gets better soon

Having read some of the comments, i am somewhat suprised by them, i was drinking there last night my 5th visit since reopening, the beer was good the food good, the refurb was very much needed. Having drank there for about 18 years it is much better now.
