About The Red Lion
The Red Lion on Stanley Road is a well-regarded pub-restaurant sitting in the heart of Teddington, serving the local community seven days a week. It offers a full food menu spanning breakfast through to dinner, with a kitchen known for generous portions of both traditional favourites and more imaginative dishes. A solid selection of beers and wines, live performances and sports screenings add to the appeal, while a back garden with a play area makes it a natural gathering spot for families, friends and regulars looking for a comfortable, hospitable local.
Local area
Teddington has long nurtured a strong sense of community, and a well-run local pub plays a central role in that fabric. The Red Lion on Stanley Road sits a comfortable distance from the busy High Street, making it a natural neighbourhood retreat. With Bushy Park and the Thames close by, it suits residents returning from a riverside walk as much as those simply seeking a relaxed evening out. In a borough where independent hospitality businesses are genuinely valued, a pub that serves as both a family venue and a live entertainment space earns its place in the community.
Why choose The Red Lion
For residents who want a reliable, welcoming local rather than a chain experience, The Red Lion offers real breadth. The kitchen covers everything from a relaxed lunch to a proper dinner, with classics done well and portions that represent fair value. The back garden with its play area means families with grandchildren are catered for comfortably, while live music and sports on screen give midweek and weekend evenings a genuine sense of occasion. Late closing on Fridays and Saturdays until midnight, and a noon opening every day of the week, makes fitting a visit into most schedules straightforward.
