Excellant pint of Adnamms broadside. This place has improved so much since its refurb.

Went to have a drink here today. No beers on offer. Made to feel stupid for asking by a bar person who was more interested in themselfs than me!

Time for a refurb methinks....vintage 1950's gents tiolets !

The Draught Beer tastes like its been suckled from the wrong end of a sick goat. The place is often rammed, especially if there's football on and the atmosphere is usually friendly and always lively. The punters are a mixed bag and its a change from the rest. Stick to bottled beer though.

The Lion is a really friendly pub with a good range of age groups and maybe the regulars do get served first, but wouldn't you look after them if ist was your pub. They are the bread and butter customers

'Mish sits patiently at the bar. After another long sleep without beer, he has forced his old frame down to the Lion to enjoy a pint. Sometimes he is lucky, other times not. Not that 'Mish cares, he lost his tatsebuds in the Crimean and all his mates are there.

Seems to change landlord on average every 6 months. Given up on the place as they've got a distinct chair shortage. Also favours regulars, most of whom probably worked behind the bar at some point, so forget it if you're after a 'quick pint'.

Walking into the pub, I'd expect a nice drink, with a cosy atmosphere.
I'd be wrong.
One member of barstaff made it very clear that regulars come first, and I couldnt get near the bar for love nor money later in the evening.
On a later visit a member of bar staff, when asked to help me with a survey, said he was a) too busy (nobody at the bar) b) they didnt have a price list for me to see (required by law).
I wouldnt go here again if it had the last bottle in town.
