We had a server in training so the service was alittle slow but he tried he’s best and he’s good, the menu is pretty bomb, you’ll have a lot of choices to choose from, and let’s not forget about the board games!
The quality was good, portions were very small. When I go out for supper, I expect to leave feeling like I ate. Instead the meal cost $67.00 (including tip), and we came home rather hungry. No wonder the waitress told me to order a "side" for my non-existent meal. I ordered the carpaccio, which was good, but I had to ask where the fish was....apparently it is cut paper thin and in a pinkish broth surrounded by a slight salad. My husband ordered the Maple bacon burger with fries... I ended up eating his fries as I was still hungry. You get better value for your money at the "Prospector" across the street. At least I would not have left there hungry!!
Red Lion is an absolute gem in the downtown district of Thunder Bay. Aesthetically beautiful and great service! The food is incredibly tasty and the incorporation of craft beer options brings a new edge to the local Thunder Bay community and to touring craft beer lovers! My only wish is they get more Flying Monkeys Amber Ale. Bravo!
Red Lion Smokehouse Review. I am thrilled that this place is in Thunder Bay. The range of quality beers to experience is astounding. The maple bacon burger is probably the best hamburger I have yet eaten. The service could not have been more friendly and prompt. The atmosphere is open and not crowded. The music was at just the right volume. I will definitely return.
All I need to say is mushrooms tacos...that's it, that's my whole review.
Those babies were so delicious and that sauce?! That sauce! Smother me in that sauce please! I tried the pulled pork, and fish tacos as well- they were very tasty but nothing compared to the mushroom one. A really great selection of local beers (a particularly varied IPA list!)
We were a large group and our food came quickly, our waitress was very friendly and joked around with us all night!
Vegan options, vegetarian options and tons of beer!
Loved our meals here everything from the vegan pesto pasta to the deep fried olives and MASSIVE plate of potato skins you won’t be disappointed with the food here!
Service and seating was decent and they have over 13 on tap beers! Great place to hang with friends as they have so many cool events happening.
Hours are as seen in the photo below. (September 2021)
Darn good ribs and Mac and cheese!!! Friendly wait staff, good service, all I could ask for. Three ribs were not over cooked and moist. The rib was gentle but evident and the bbq sauce was a sweet and sticky mixture that complimented the ribs wonderfully. I ordered a side of Mac and cheese to round out a perfect meal combination. I would recommend highly and come back next time in town.
Baby back ribs were awesome. I had half slab with a sweet somewhat sticky bbq sauce. Reminded me of Kansas City bbq. The ribs were rubbed with a spice I couldn't recognize, I enjoyed the surprise. I had the Mac and cheese as an additional side. It was a good compliment to the ribs. The cheese sauce was creamy and had a little crunch. Worth every penny and then some. The ribs came with a weak coleslaw. I'd go back again and order the same thing.
The menu carries typical North America foods, also included a variety of taco options which I had. The Taco's were a good size and tasted very good.
Outdoor patio dining available.

First time at the Red Lion. I was seated on the stylish patio, and tried out a full rack of Pork Ribs with Chips Aioli on the side. The ribs come with a coleslaw, but I don’t care for slaw very much and didn’t want it to go to waste. Lunch was delicious. The ribs weren’t as fall off the bone as I would have liked, but it was still very tasty and filling lunch.
My server was very friendly and helpful when it came to ordering drinks especially. I went with a pint Lakeside Kolsch which was a lighter tasting beer. Very tasty. I followed that up with a pint of Shindig which had a bit of a sharper taste and was also tremendous.
I’m looking forward to dining inside on my next visit. It looks very clean and an excellent atmosphere inside. There are over 100 Craft Beers available. This is a great spot to host an event. They have enough space to hold 130 guests.
Take out or delivery is also available on the delivery App that you probably already use. LGBTQ friendly, as well as Vegetarian and kid friendly.
Fantastic service! Even though there were a few large parties inside, we still had excellent service on the patio. They even lit the heaters and fire pits for us, which was wonderful. The food was also excellent, we got the BBQ platter and shared it between 2 people. Plenty of food for the two of us! Great beer selection too, I've never seen Godspeed available outside of the brewery.
