The Red Lion was an original Joule’s house and like most of the medieval town centre, sits over Market Drayton’s aquifer, the water source for all our ales. Hard, pure mineral water, found directly beneath the site made the decision where home the 4th Joule’s Brewery very easy."

Having been to Market Drayton before by canal, and being a small town we weren't expecting much change. What a surprise to find this place. What a fantastic Pub/Brewery by Joules. Wonderfully decorated with original features from recovered buildings. Coupled with excellent friendly staff and good quality tasty well priced beers, some brewed on the premises in small batches. This seems to be the model for this brewery featuring in other towns in the Midlands. A must visit, food too. Bonus, we asked about taxis back to our boat, and 2 bar staff kindly gave us a lift. Don't ask for the same favour though,please.
Excellent beer, their pale ale is the best, good pub grub, over all really good value, staff are friendly and attentive, well looked after by Stacey.
We went here to start an evening in town with another couple and decided to have a bite to eat with our drinks. The food was really very good and we will be returning with our sons to sample some more. It was also nice to see so many dogs in the pub as there are few traditions still 'permitted' in modern public houses and the atmosphere was correspondingly friendly and welcoming. The pub itself is slightly surprising as the exterior doesn't do justice to how well the inside has been decorated and renovated. There are lot of nooks and crannies to find out and the staff were excellent throughout, we rarely waited long to be served or to have empty glasses cleared. One star off for the heat. It was a lovely mild evening so I'd gone out in just a thin base-layer fleece and I was roasting. Other customers were equally flustered stripping down to t-shirts and opening nearby windows to seek some draught. The good news is that the beer was very good, so I had a good excuse for a second.
Sunday 12th December 21: Another absolutely delicious Sunday roast lunch with this time, our family! It's definitely one of the best Sunday roasts available here in Market Drayton! The chefs, all the staff, the warm, cosy atmosphere and great drinks and ales all brewed here at Joules's Brewery is just amazingly perfect. Thanks again for a fantastic service, food, friendly staff and welcome... YOU ARE ALL STARS...WELL DONE! See you again soon and definitely before Christmas... Tuesday 16th November 2021: Popped in with two boater friends whom had never been to my favourite Inn and Joule's Brewery. A big shout out to Megan, Jake, Natasha, Becca and Emma who served us all throughout the evening with huge smiles and warmth and for looking after me when I stayed a wee bit longer to have something to eat. Had the house Classic burger, with coleslaw and chips and boy was it delicious or what...and went down perfectly! Thanks David and Ashley in the kitchen for a most tasty burger which was much needed definitely!! Sunday 10th October 2021: Reserved ahead a table for 4 of us for the Sunday Roast dinner lunch in the gorgeous panelled dinner area as our boater friends did make it in time for this to happen, just perfect! The staff were absolutely brilliant and so friendly and welcoming from our arrival. We had cards on our table with a set out selection of what was available and what we would like and these were used for the staff to go and plate up for us at the carvery food area. So much better than having to wait in line and go and serve oneself as per normal in other restaurant or pubs we've been to for a Sunday roast dinner lunch, how clever and well thought out....well done Joule's Brewery, Market Drayton!!! The 2/3 courses lunch prices were such excellent value and obviously we had the 3 course option...However, we shared two starters as well as two puddings and it worked out just superb. The two rounds of starters were 8th October 2021: By Joule's, it's good to be back...at last! Still my favourite pub/Brewery on the canal by far and the Chardonnay and my pint/ or three actually of Slumbering Monk Ale was perfection and so welcoming. We popped in for some lunch and decided to have two rounds of the Tender Rump Steak, caramelised onion and hot horseradish Bloomer Loaf sandwiches...wow, absolutely delicious and yummy! What an amazing place and maybe I should keep it a secret and all to ourselves! Thanks to all the chefs and kitchen and A BIG SHOUT OUT to EVE and BECCA especially for making us feel totally at home again, so welcoming and very friendly makes us want to come back always.. We're thinking of bringing our boater friends here for a Sunday Roast Dinner meal if they get to Market Drayton by then or on time... May 2021: One of our favourite pubs come Brewery and the brewery itself is pretty amazing..you can actually see them brewing the Joule's ales through the big glass floor to ceiling windows...the smell is extremely deliciously sweet and hoppy, chocolatey, coffee...yummy!! We've visited every time we've chugged into Market Drayton and the food is fantastic and the drinks as well...especially their own Joule's ales and Green Monkey craft lager. I usually drink the Joule's "Monk" ale and it's a gorgeous, delicious pint and definitely one of the best out there! The staff are very friendly, welcoming and attentive...and the service is top notch, well done to them all. Thanks for such a lovely time Joule's The Red Lion Brewery.. ps. Try their special "sweet potato fries" which are absolutely yummy! These light nibbles go really great with your delicious pint of Joule's ale or fantastic glass of white Chardonnay...
Went for Sunday lunch with my partner at the weekend. Have to say it was one of the best Sunday lunches I’ve had in a long time. Everything on the plate tasted amazing and the atmosphere and team were just as good. Told my other half that I’m going back next weekend for another.
Food was lovely but the service was terribly slow. Ordered the same coffee 3 times, finally received it over an hour later! Main course took 50 mins to come out, Dessert then took 35 mins to come out. The pub is really nice, but it's a long wait to eat!
Busy Pub! On site brewery so presume it's the flagship pub for the owners, Joules. Comes over as mainly pub for younger clientele. Menu adequate, generally pub classics in the main, and fairly well cooked and presented. Staff seemed extremely busy appearing to have little interaction with customers. Probably wouldn't choose to revisit.
Highly recommend the Red Lion, Market Drayton. Such a great atmosphere, warm, clean and inviting. Friendly staff, especially from Stacey, really looked after us throughout our visit start to finish. Check out the new menu. 5 star.
Mixed feelings about this place. Lovely pub, nice setting, lots of space etc.. We came 4 Sunday dinner & I ordered the standard carvery but was disappointed at the portion size. I got 2 minuscule roast potatoes & one small new potato. I have come away hungry The food was lovely though, we all enjoyed it. Moist turkey, melt in the mouth beef & tasty veggies. I've read the reviews on how good the service is so all I can say is we must have come on a bad day as they were dreadful. Staff were moody & unattentive. When I asked if my dinner should have come with a Yorkshire pudding as I had beef & turkey she said no as we gave you stuffing so I said could I have one & she rolled her eyes & walked off. I did get my Yorkshire in the end but everything seemed too much trouble, her attitude was terrible & made me feel everything we asked her for was irritating. We waited half an hour before we were offered desserts, we asked to see the menu & waited another 20 mins or so before I had to go & ask again. No apology, just another eye roll. Hubby had crumble for desert which was lovely but the chocolate pudding was over microwaved & hard with very little custard. I would go back as the over all place was nice, but if I had a repeat of that service we most certainly wouldn't re visit.
I went for lunch with a couple of friends from Shrewsbury. They were very impressed with the service we recieved. Stacey who served us went that exrea mile to make sure our visit was enjoyable.
