    The Red Lion Pub is claimed to be home to a multitude of characters. The most prominent of them is the ghost of a woman that resides in the second floor women's restroom. The last stall to be exact. Read more

    Amazingly authentic British pub styling and fare. The food is awesome and a very nice selection of beer and wine. The bar looks very well stocked for a near endless variety of cocktails. Top notch!!!

    The fries (chips) are really outstanding. I wouldn't usually say that about a place. They are prototypical. Good food. Friendly. Wonderful beer list with UK influence: a few nitro taps. Comfy.

    Fantastic, cozy and unique place for a bite and a drink. A refreshing break from the loud college-oriented bars of Lincoln Park. Great whiskey collection, take the bartenders' recommendations.

    With a reputation as one of the most haunted bars in Chicago and a British manor interior that resembles a scene from the board game Clue, it's hard not to pass up a visit to the Red Lion Pub.

    There's a selection of hard to get British ales on tap, great for the expats. Beautifully refurnished for its reopening, the atmosphere is relaxed and the food delicious.

    The food is straight forward but often delicious. Great selection of British style ales on draft as well as some pilsners that are difficult to find.

    Cozy and warm pub, serving up great British food and beer. An oasis for adults in the otherwise undergrad focused area of Lincoln Park.

    The bookcases and decor is amazing. Such a cozy place to relax in the winter with the fireplace roaring.

    I love the Lion Stout they have on tap from Lion Brewery Ceylon in Sri Lanka.

    The food is decent, but you can find better British pub fare elsewhere for the same price range. I also found their draft beer list a bit lacking. I'd recommend going to Owen and Engine instead.

    Good service. Bartender was a throwback conversationalist, a dieing breed.
