The Red Lion & Sun

Amazing food!!! Really enjoyed the burger and fried chicken wings. I would highly recommend it if you’re looking for a delicious meal. The cocktails are also quite good, we really enjoyed the Palomas. The only thing I would improve is the ambiance. Some better and louder background music is needed as the space at the back is quite small. Having 1 or 2 loud tables is enough to disrupt everyone and make it very uncomfortable.

Had a fantastic boozy lunch with friends on Saturday. What a lovely pub! We shared burrata with tomatoes, oysters, beef rib and milk fed lamb. Heath then treated us to a selection of his soft serve ice cream. Washed down with a great selection of wines from their extensive wine list. We will definitely be back. Thanks Heath and team. It was great to meet you. 😊

The food was absolutely delicious 🤤 The service was exceptional. Everything was clean and neat. The atmosphere was really great! I really can recommend this beautiful 🤩 and cozy place. I will come again!

The beef roast was so good! I can't recommend more. You might have to book in advance as it is a popular place but definitely have a try!

Not sure what the hype about the Sunday roast is. Pretty bog standard, not bad but not sure worth the price tag (£27/pax, we got the beef for 3 pax). Sticky toffee pudding with ice cream was good.

What a lovely gastropub, slightly off the beaten path, but well worth the walk if you're in the Highgate area. The service was friendly and attentive, and the food was fantastic (the chicken curry a revelation for a gastro), and the drinks menu far more extensive than you'd expect! We sat outside and enjoyed seating in the lovely canopied suntrap that is their front courtyard, the atmosphere was ambient and warm, and it's a very dog friendly spot, which added to the charm. We'll be back!

Eaten here multiple times including their Sunday roast. Best place the area for food and always great atmosphere and great service. I particular love the thoughtful sourcing of ingredients. I was excited to see an English sparkling on their menu also.
