Great value for money as is with all Samuel Smith's houses. The extra stout is awesome, stronger and smoother than guinness and a heck of a lot cheaper too!! Shame they got rid of the pool tables in the vault. Its also a pity there is no jukebox or even background music.

Sorry, that should have read sitting down on the floor.

I remember the Lion from when I grew up in Heaton (over twenty years ago). My abiding memory was going in there for the first time (my mate and I were both over 18, honest), sitting down because there was no space and we were both half-cut. The landlord said "stand up lads, this isn't a doss-house".

This pub is a fair walk out of Bolton town centre but worth the trip.Friendly landlord who keeps a good pint of Samual Smiths OBB. Food is served and the place is very clean, a few couples eating when we visited on Saturday afternoon. I was told is once belonged to Bolton football legand Nat Lofthouse
