wonderful place. good values and community gathering spot. Great food. never had a bad meal here. patio is gorgeous and sunny in the summer. highly recommend! I could live off the fried cheese curds.
Bri was our server and she was absolutely amazing! Food was great, never disappointed!
Was in passing through on my trip East & wanted a Dog friendly patio, so decided to try the Red Lion - BIG MISTAKE!
First they gave me water in a dirty glass, then went to order a beer & everything I asked for they were out of. They have a dog menu as well, but everything on that was out too.
Ended up ordering a brisket sandwich (which was good, but nothing spectacular) when it arrived the only side was coleslaw and it looked like it was a month old - rotten pieces in it...read full review

Red Lion Smokehouse provides a friendly and welcoming atmosphere with a clean and spacious setting. The food is very good, especially the burgers, which are a highlight. The deep fried olives, fries, and aoli come highly recommended. The restaurant combines an authentic British/Irish pub vibe with traditional Irish music, creating a lively environment. The staff are attentive and helpful, particularly when it comes to allergy concerns, and they offer blankets on the patio for chilly days. Visitors can enjoy a quiet bar seating area, perfect for solo travelers, with the best draught list in Thunder Bay featuring tasty beers from different breweries. While some dishes like the mains, such as tacos and burgers, may not always impress, the smoked items like the half rack of ribs are often perfectly prepared. The restaurant charges an 18% tipping fee for groups of 8 or more, but the friendly service makes it a good spot for hosting events despite minor drawbacks. Service from staff members, such as Leah and Jordan, has been praised for making guests feel comfortable and memorable.
