Three Lions Pub

British bar with authentic items including fish and chips, bangers and mash, shepherd's pie and Curry. I thought the chicken curry over our chips ( potato wedges) was excellent and very filling. Lots of draft beer choices you can't find elsewhere.

Ordered the classic bangers and mash and my wife had the cottage pie. Both were good but the servings were on the smaller side. Waitress initially was attentive but after we got our food she really didn’t come back. I would still recommend if you’re looking for something different than the standard burger and fries.

I am only speaking on the catering side, been here two different years for Xmas parties...food served was awful. buffet style, but food was cold BOTH times, meats were dry (chicken). They never put out proper silverware. Sadly the only thing hot was the restaurant, and we are talking sauna...this is 2 different years. We didn't stay long as the heat was stifling. Don't use them for family or corporate functions, they are just horrible.

I had been going most every week this summer for the fish and chips and a beer. The fish and chips is very good, but there is never enough coleslaw for my liking. This is not unusual for most of the places where I go for a fish dinner. Up until my last visit at Three Lions Pub, whenever I asked for an extra coleslaw, I was happily given one at no extra charge. This is also the case at every other restaurant/bar where I have fish because the amount of coleslaw is always small. It is, and I believe should be the norm to supply an extra one at no charge. It is good business policy. On my LAST visit at Three Lions I was told that their policy is to charge for an extra coleslaw and "would that be a problem." I very firmly expressed my opinion that would be a problem, and did not place an order for fish, and said I would not be back. I had already ordered a soda, and to the bartenders credit, he did not charge me for the soda. It isn't that I can't afford to pay for an extra coleslaw. Whatever the cost might have been (I didn't ask) it would not have made a dent in my financial condition. It was the principal that got me so upset. I owned my own business for 26 years and was lectured early on by one of my salesman to never be "penny wise and pound foolish." At the time, I was just that. Ticking off a customer by charging for a small item that is inconsequential in the big picture can cause one to loose that customer and it could have cost my company tens of thousands of dollars in future business. On the other hand, giving away a small item can mean a lot to a customer and assure that they will be a customer for years to come and the increased revenue that comes with that. So, in summary, it just gets me SO MAD when I see this attitude in a business owner, because in my opinion, they are shooting themselves in the foot over nothing. In this case, I would be willing to bet not more than 1 in 100 people ask for an extra coleslaw, but because they got me so upset over that attitude, I have not been back and probably won't be. So sad. There, I got that off my chest. Maybe if they read this they will understand how "penny wise and pound foolish" is SUCH A BAD POLICY.

One of our favorites. We unexpectedly popped in durring the Packer game and it was a fun atmosphere. Not too footbally (obviously, we'er not huge football fans) but there was an excited vibe we enjoyed.

Nice, relaxing English pub. Great service, nice atmosphere, solid food! Loved my Gimlet, recommended by the bartender.

A wonderful gem of a place. We enjoyed a lovely dinner with extremely nice staff. The restaurant is set up to allow very comfortable and safe social distancing. All staff wore masks. Masks are required when you aren't seated. The tables were spaced well and the bar setup was unique in a way that felt incredibly safe, too. We had lovely chats with the folks working there, and everyone seemed to truly be invested in us enjoying our time. There are many vegetarian and vegan options and the staff is awesome at answering questions if you're not sure what to pick from the menu. Currently they're also running a "ghost kitchen" with Mexican food options as well. This food is worth the visit all on its own. Each item we had was wonderful. Thank you for providing a safe dining option. We will be back!

A great visit to Three Lions. Welcoming, friendly staff, very creative and comfortable social distancing and wonderful food. The "ghost kitchen" concept with mexican cuisine may seem odd, but what a great partnership and absolutely great food. We sampled food from both menus and everything was spot on. A great stop for a game, a date, or just a night out. Kudos to you and your staff!

We've been to Three Lions a few times. Sometimes it's just a nice place to stop after having a drink at a nearby place such as Draft & Vessel. The times we've gone, it's been pretty quiet. I imagine that's not the case when a sporting event is going on. The service has always been good. A few years ago, we got the poutine there and loved it. The last time, this past February, it was really really salty. Too much so. I also recently got the ancient grains with salmon. Solid choice! It's a fine place -- nothing remarkable, but accessible, big place to find a spot for some quality food and libation.

Everything I've ordered has been great. Hot toddies, mules, craft cocktails, oh yeah - and food! The grilled cheese IN the tomato soup is the perfect comfort food. This is a great neighborhood bar, and I don't even live in this neighborhood. I don't know why my heels always slip on this floor though, so it's dangerous to come after work.

This was a fun place for a Friday night dinner British food does not excite me but this place hits it out of the ballpark Highly recommend the Shepherds Pie!!!

It's been 6.5 yrs, I need to update my Three Lions review ;) Poutine is back, baby!!!! Honestly, the food is better than ever. You cannot go wrong with the Tannery Row for brunch, and it is the perfect amount of food. Fish & chips - classic, and so good (better than several places I visited in the UK, actually!), but please bring back the mushy peas. You can get a Pimm's cup. A PIMM's CUP! And Shanky's Whip! Don't ask, just order it... Highly recommend!!! After visiting England twice, I now fully and truly appreciate the care and craftmanship the owners and employees have brought into this fine establishment. I was present for every Euros game featuring Team England this past season - the joy was contagious. I even felt comfortable going by myself (and noticed many others were as well), which is something I learned from my first solo vacation in England. After the pandemic, I was not going out for brunch/dinner/drinks, mostly because I did not want to venture outside my bubble. Honestly, having this amazing, welcoming place that reminds me of some of my life's favorite moments, along with terrific food and unique drinks and is only a few minutes walk from where I live, has really helped me break out of my troll-like homebody routine. A solid 5-star establishment. I love it so much, I've bragged about it to my English friends and have even told my favorite DJs (aka radio show hosts) about it. Never change!!

I was there on 8/30 for one beer. I was charged $48. Currently disputing this transaction. The bar doesn't keep history of receipts.

Returned to TLP on a Sunday to have some brunch with a friend of mine. There were plenty of spots but it was busier than I thought. A soccer game was on, which ppl really seemed to be there for and excited about. If you don't like a loud, laid-back atmosphere, it's probably not the spot for you in the winter. My friend got a bloody, which she enjoyed. For food, I got the pork belly BLT. My only qualm is I asked for onions to be added and they didn't. No biggie, as the sandwich itself was still delicious. They gave me a side of Mayo I asked for, but not the side of the aioli. My sandwich and fries were good. I just had to order the sticky toffee. I love toffee. Although good, this dessert wasn't what I was expecting. Too much pudding for me and not enough of the sticky toffee. Otherwise it was a good dessert but I wouldn't order it again. Definitely a spot I'll be sure to hit up again in the future. Maybe another summer stop-in!

Giant pretzel?! Hello yes please! Gone here a few times now since moving to Milwaukee and the pretzel is a must! Honestly could have it as a my main meal.... Come to think of it I have!

Ok. Bad news first. We wanted 80 minutes for lunch. That's right EIGHTY. From the time arrived to food being served. Why the four stars? Because the bartender was the only person serving anyone the kitchen was shortstaffed, and the bartender kept us informed with apologies throughout. he also comped one of our lunches out of three provided one free appetizer and one free side of chips Lastly, the food was amazing. the scotch eggs were delicious and the shepherds pie was the best I've had outside of England. Proof that even when things don't go perfectly, they can still be pretty darn good we will be back and hopefully the wait won't be so long. cool ambience

So I tried to post a review that used only Jack's name. But our AI friends decided that wasn't cool. Here's the thing; if you want a British pub experience and you're in MKE, this and Red Lion (same owners) are the places to go. My point in calling out Jack is the fact that he's smart, witty typically bitter and a solid bartender. He is the reason so many of us show up. Oh, and the ambiance is lovely.

I'm not sure whether I should review here or not... We were craving a good burrito, and found a place called "Taqueria de Leon". It had no reviews. But it was close by and I'm all for supporting new restaurants - especially during these covid days! - so we decided to call in. It turns out that this is not really a restaurant, but a delivery service that uses Three Lions Pub's kitchen. At least, that's what the gal on the phone told us. I'm thinking it's more like Three Lions Pub is adding more food to their delivery/takeout service and wanted to keep the Mexican cuisine separate. I applaud business owners for trying new things during these hard times. I will write a separate review for the food in the Taqueria de Leon page. This updated review for Three Lions Pub is for the service I received here. Everyone we talked to, from the gal on the phone to the guy giving us the food, the nice text message when the food was ready, was awesome. Five stars. The pretty pick up set-up, and the beautiful outdoor seating area were also wonderful. We would personally err on the side of over careful and eat at home, but the set up here is so nice I'm quite tempted. I did knock off one star for the confusion with the Taqueria de Leon. It's a great idea - I just wish it was more transparent from the gecko so there is no confusion. Like, I would have hoped Taqueria de Leon was a more authentic Mexican joint dedicated to burritos (like their menu suggested). Still not disappointed I tried it, but went in with different expectations.

Three Lions has a special place in my heart. Having been here a million and one times, it's astonishing I've yet to write a review. This week though, I've been inspired to write one about an experience different than usual. In these crazy, crazy times small businesses are all making rapid changes and adjustments to stay afloat and continue serving the community. Three Lions is one of those places! As way of social distancing, they even have creatively taped lines and lanes inside the pub for when patrons enter for their pickup orders. Outside of their regular food menu on offer, you can now pickup or fill up their 32oz of 64oz growlers. My husband and I decided to do just that. We chose the Kronenbourg Blanc currently on tap. It was a "swipe-your-own-card" situation making the transaction as *clean* as possible. The staff that are providing services still have smiles and you can tell their team is staying strong together. Cheers to the community who is offering support - I heard their Friday Fish Fry sold out!

This was a long time bookmark so I decided to stop by for the fish fry and a beer. The place is two rooms divided by the center bar which was cool. The place has an old saloon feel with all the wood everywhere and tin ceiling. The bar is very nice nice to hang out and the noise level is just enough so you can have a conversation but the place has a dim lit atmosphere. The menu is small and this is not a traditional fish fry place because it's just Atlantic cod and chips with no other fish choices and thick frys. Our server was nice and and was patient with us talking and hanging out a bit before and after dinner. The fish fry came out fast and hot, clearly cooked to order and sent to our table because I couldn't eat the frys with out burning my mouth for minutes. The frys were steak like with a crispy shell and soft center, perfect but I only had a few because I'm not big into frys even it they are great. The beer battered cod and cod is not my favorite fish was very good with a well seasoned beer batter that was crispy and tasty with nice flakey cod inside. The coleslaw was in a small tin like the ketchup and tarter sauce and just average like the tarter sauce. Overall this was a great casual place for a leisurely conversation with dinner and a drink with great atmosphere so I would definitely stop back.

Very good food: very cozy: "pubby" atmosphere, Glad to see they have vegan avocado toast so I can take a vegan friend there,

Between Three Lions Pub and its sister bar - Red Lion Pub, I've been many times. The food is always excellent with a good selection of draft beers (the fish and chips is top notch and I personally recommend pairing it with a Smithwicks). For any soccer fans out there, it's definitely the place to watch the game! The bartenders and servers are all fun yet attentive. The place is clearly the kind of pub that has its cast of regulars, which is always a good sign in my book. The atmosphere is cozy and friendly with booths, tabletop, and bar seating. It's a proper British pub. There is readily available street parking as well.

We had a surprise birthday brunch, which not only surprised our friend, but gave many of us a chance to meet and catch up. The server was attentive without being overbearing and although it took awhile to get our entrees, we had plenty of appetizers going around. The beer and water pitchers were hardly ever empty. I'd host a birthday party here again!

Food is very good, especially the wings and BLT. Staff is very friendly and attentive. Great neighborhood spot.

A bar for watching soccer. That's what they are and it works. And there really isn't any place better at it. If I want to watch a soccer match, and be around other people who are actually into it, I go here. Well done!

This is probably the only British Pub I have been to in the entire Milwaukee area and I absolutely love it. Right after our London trip few years back, I was obsessed with Sticky Toffee pudding and was trying to hunt down a place in Milwaukee that would serve the same. Lucky did I know a place not too far away from home would be my go-to for this absolutely heavenly dessert. They have a typical Bar vibe, wooden tables and chairs/benches too a bit inside and is perfect for friends or your gal pals to grab a bite or a few drinks. Me and my husband often find us coming here when we want to have a chill evening. For food we mostly get the Scotch eggs, and/or the hummus platter with chips (actual chips and not the British chips :))).. but mostly I save room for Sticky toffee pudding! With every bite we remember our amazing London visit! The staff is super friendly and is super prompt with your order. Highly recommend this fun place! N please give STP a shot.. you won't regret it!

Great food awesome service and the best game watching place in alll of the MIlwaukee are.

Five stars - I went and had the Caesar salad. As a Caesar salad expert, I can happily say it is one of the best I've ever had! The dressing was creamy and tangy. The chicken was cooked to perfection, and the cheese was flawlessly sprinkled. The staff was friendly, and the location was perfect! The ambiance was fantastic and authentic to the culture! 10/10 would recommend it!

Three lions is a staple in our house. Whether it's going out to eat there or bringing it home, we eat here often. The only reason they don't have 5 stars is because there are a lot of inconsistencies. Sometimes service is a bit wacky and we'll get our appetizer 30 seconds before the entree. Sometimes they switch things up in the kitchen that don't make sense (like the veggies in my curry one time just being baby carrots instead of zucchini and squash). But for the most part the food is yummy. Brunch or dinner and even for the fish fry. Their chips are delicious.

Great atmosphere; great staff; food can be a bit variable/hit and miss, but it'll always be my go-to for a sports occasion

Three lions pub is a fantastic English pub for a my soccer matches to come true. I tried their curry. It was a very good warm dish which fed my soul but did not taste anything like an Indian Curry. Went on a Friday and the server forgot to mention the specials (Friday fish fry and 5$ old fashioneds which i found on a poster in the bathroom coincidentally) . Great ambience, the service could be better ( she forgot to get us utensils too )

Overpriced for what you get. Ordered fish and chips and spinach artichoke dip. The dip tasted like it was just cream cheese and spinach. No flavor or seasoning at all. Fish was soggy. Tasted like oil, the water the fish came from, and unseasoned breading. Mushy peas were not mushy. They were alright and the portion was huge. Environment walking in to grab my food was very unwelcoming. Would definitely not get food from here again.

REALLY LOUD! But so are most bars and restaurants these days. Couldn't hear each other talking. Left with ringing ears. They have two separate areas. You would think they would have the room without the bar set up for quieter visiting and dining. Decent bar food.

After a long bike ride, this place was great! Super cute British inspired menu, with tons of options to choose from. Extra bonus points for speedily feeding out hungry kiddos, so we could relax and peruse the menu. Great beer offerings, nice portions, some healthy options, and everything we ordered was tasty. We'd definitely come back!

Fish fry has great portions and quality was pretty good! Great place to watch sports events!

Three lions is a solid pub to grab a drink and catch up with friends. The bar service was great and they have the classic Wisconsin machines. It does get a bit rowdy during soccer games and such though. They do have a patio area and relatively decent food as well. Their grilled cheese in the tomato soup is my favorite.

This is a standard pub, nothing too exciting. I've been a few times with friends over the years. I stopped in the other night with a friend. We sat at the bar and ordered beers. After my first few sips I noticed fruit flies buzzing around my glass. I waved them away. A few minutes later same thing, and then the next time I looked they were crawling in the glass! It's time for Three Lions to do a good deep clean before the health department shows up for a check.

Fun, outdoor, warm weather spot in Shorewood. Great for sharing food with friends and people watching. Good food and friendly people.

There are so many positive things about 3 Lion's that keep the patrons coming back: the vibe is probably the most authentic to a pub as you're going to get and that's because the the people who work there are fantastic. The regular menu is worth more than 3 stars and I personally have a love affair with the sausage rolls- it's a simple, hearty dish that I could eat over and over again. Other solid dishes that you can't go wrong with are the wings and the giant pretzel. So yes, I'm raving about them- but then why just 3 stars? I tried the ramen special and was sorely disappointed. Some may say, why get a ramen dish at a pub, but I was feeling adventurous. So I say, why not? And I'll tell why not to get the ramen special: the dish lacked a hearty, robust broth that is typical of a ramen dish. They forgot to give me a spoon and honestly, there was barely enough broth to need a spoon. The noodles seemed like they were more fit for a pasta dish instead of a bowl of soup. BUT the pork belly was delish. Sadly though, it's not enough to save the dish. It was definitely an attempt at ramen- just not a good one. Now I know it's not really fair to rate them based on one dish that isn't on their regular menu but it was a huge disappointment (and highly overpriced). At the end of the day I would recommend 3 Lions, just stick to their regular menu.

We stopped in to have bruncht here and to have something a little bit different. I really liked the neighborhood and the vibe that was going on at the Pub. They made us feel comfortable as soon as well walked in the door. Server was super friendly and great about telling us about the different options and about their pub. I had the orange crepes (OMG) and hubby had the Full English Breakfast. What can I say it all came out fast, hot and delicious! We didn't have the teenager with us for this meal but I am definitely wanting to take him back because it has a great sports atmosphere without making it feel 100% bar. I am not a soccer fan but I hear it is a cool place to come in and watch (especially early games). Will definitely be putting this fun pub in the family rotation.

Three Lions is the original of the Lion's pubs. It's located in Shorewood and is an excellent place to catch a game of football or almost any other sport for that matter. The beer selection is as respectable as they come. Best to sit outside on the expanded deck that takes up some of the parking area out front. What I truly love at Three Lions is the food! This joint does it up correct and serves some decent goods fo sho! In particular the Happy Hour is correct! The Scotch Eggs are some of the best around. I'm a sucker for a well crafted Scotch egg and not everybody knows how to make these proper like. Well the Lion's does and at Happy Hour they come at a good deal. Also the Lion's has a proper fish and chips and all the sides you could desire. Favorite side is the Onion Rings! Cooked crisp and perfect these things are just good! All in all no surprise here cause I'm also a fan of Red Lion Pub. You guys got it going on! Cheers!

Food was bland and bag was soaking in grease when delivered. I used to really like this place but the prices have gotten so high and the portions have gotten so much smaller that I cant justify this place as my go-to anymore. The staff was always good and it's a nice environment overall, but my Shepard's Pie had so little flavor and veggies that I ended up seasoning it at home. The lamb was gamey as well, which is something I've never experienced with lamb before. The veggies were a big draw for me as well, but I seldom found a piece. Also, I had no clue it was topped with cheese (I don't handle dairy well so that's why I ordered it) so that was a turn off as well. Ugh.

I lost food pictures. We had fish and chips on Friday night. Food was good. One thing servers seems so busy. They never come for refill my cup.

It's a great gathering place. Food is good. People are nice. I liked their five dollar old fashions during one of the specials. But double check that they're not making pouring you doubles and you don't find out till you pay your bill.

Such a cool atmosphere and friendly staff. Had the scotch eggs and they were awesome. Will go back.

As always my go to place... with the cold weather the place added outside dining the added a little heated tent. Inside dinning is also available. Quality of remains the same but they did improve their giant pretzel and artichoke dip. Wings in this place is always a plus

We ordered three lions for delivery and were pleasantly impressed. We had the pasties and Reubens. Huge portions, seasoned well. Their Reubens remind me of the ones served at Taylor and Dunn's; I will no longer long for the thick home cooked corn beef. Because we found it here super tender, well-seasoned and huge portions. Thanks again for a fabulous meal! Looking forward to trying one of their igloos when available!

First time here for Brunch on Sunday, 16 February. Very big bar and seating area, we sat in a darker part of the restaurant. That morning I had an itch to scratch for biscuits and gravy and we tried Three Lions Pub on Sunday, 16 Feb. If you had read in any of my previous posts that I am sucker for biscuits and gravy, and Three Lions Pub was the my taker for the morning. My order of biscuits and gravy was good, the gravy was from scratch or as ordered, your basic white sauce but the sausage helped out in the flavor profile. The biscuit was super fluffy, but dense, so half way through I was getting full but I needed to finish the order. Additionally I ordered their house mix Bloody Mary, and it was the best so far of 2020 for me, I highly recommend it! My wife ordered their lamb hash, which is something unique and from her comments, really really good. I believe this is a must order if you like a good breakfast hash. This was in our queue to check out for the last couple of years, and we were glad to check it out, you should as well.

I was expecting generic pub food and was super surprised by how great the food was. We went back two days later because we were craving it. great local spot.

Liked it so much I went back! This time I tried the Cornish Pasty and Mash. WOW! Even better than the Shepherds Pie! The Patsy was so light and fluffy. Located on top of a bed of mashed potatoes, seasoned beef and veggies. You have to try it! Oh yeah.... Had another Toffy Pudding too! (Thanks for the coupon Yelp)!

We visited Three Lions on a Saturday for an English Premiere League game, and had a great time. Loved trying the Scottish egg and really loved the tomato soup--seriously do not miss it. Pop into Chattle Changers before or after you visit for some of the best antiquing in the area.

I love London, but every time I return it becomes harder to find an authentic English breakfast. That's because authentic English breakfast is very unhealthy and the British have this relatively successful socialized national health system that places a strong emphasis on preventative care. United Kingdom public education has all but stomped out traditional English breakfast and soon cigarette smoking as well. Well although I quit cigarettes a couple of decades ago, I still crave them and although I started eating healthier not that long ago I still crave English breakfast and low and behold....here there be authentic English breakfast. I didn't trust them to serve up English tea properly with a tea pot and teacups because that also is disappearing back in London so I had my authentic English breakfast with an English beer and that's exactly the way I'm going to order next month when I go back. I don't know what else is on the menu and I don't care.

First time visit pet recommendation from Milwaukee Magazine. Cute cozy environment, awesome service, delicious appetizer, Scottish egg, and disappointing fish fry. The fish was thickly battered and needed to be fried a bit longer. The portion of coleslaw was tiny at best, very tasty though. Drinks were very good as well. May try again because the service was so good, maybe the kitchen was having a bad night even though there were only about 6 other tables.

Great service, good food, reasonable on the pricing side. Nice and mellow and you can hear yourself talk.

Our server was fantastic, checking back often on how we were doing, and the food was delicious. The grouper was cooked to perfection. and my husband loved the cauliflower curry. Very good value in a cozy setting.

Took our friends there last weekend to see the great establishment and our favorite bartender JP!! Never disappointed!! Ron and Louise

We went here for brunch to use a CityTin coupon and totally fell in love. I had the corned beef hash and my boyfriend had the chicken and waffles. Both were delicious, and we thoroughly enjoyed the service! Jack at the bar was so kind and fun. Compared to other Saturday brunch spots, it wasn't super busy which we appreciated. We will absolutely be coming back.
