Cozy multi storey pub! Love the roof top sitting area! Loved the place. They do some fantastic pizzas for under a tenner. Can't really ask for more.

Pretty basic, but kind of does what it says on the tin and has a roof terrace & free to play pool table

This place has changed so much over the past 20 years. I remember zee good old days when you could have a little dance in there on Saturday night. I even had an interview in that great little pub! The place is now amazing with the roof garden. It's well done without too much fuss and it is so lovely to have a high rise pint over Hoxton in the least pretentious and bestest pub in the area!

Interesting and full of character.
Great meeting spot for social get togethers.
If going to the rooftop, be prepared, it's a good hike 😀

The Red Lion - what a place. Went there of a sunny Sunday evening with girlfriend, as was enticed by the promise of an actually open rooftop (throwing shade on you Culpepper). Plus, having lived in Shoreditch for years, I had never even heard of it.

A rooftop it certainly had, and although we didn't get sweeping views of East London, we got to play cards on a picnic bench in the sun. So all good.

Otherwise, quite a bizarre pub, and I would love to know more about it and its normal business. It was almost empty at the time, and had a remarkably student union-y feel to it (something I reckon I'm qualified to comment on given an interminable 13 years of student-hood). Pool table, wipe down pleather sofas, a neon bar signs inside, DJ booth in a small room, one-person-only toilet door signs, very relaxed and casual bar staff.

GF input on request: 'does everything you want it to do: its got a rooftop, its got a pool table, its got weird lines on the floor and serves £6 pints from plastic cups - what else could you want'

...Its hard to explain... it's like someone had themed it 'student union'... go check it out...

Nice little pub. Lack of selection only down side. Good size beer garden

Nice pub with multiple floors so it's got lots of space. Good place to go if you want a quiteish drink in London. Lovely rooftop terrace.

I am yet to try their iconic food. This place has 4 floors and the roof area is stunning. Like a korean setting with the string bulb lights. Also they have this arcade basketball game, it so much fun. Absolutely loved it. This would be a great place for small parties, bridal shower, stag's do and organised meet ups. You can rent floors and each one has toliets except the roof.
