Musical comedy night. Great entertainment from Pete, Brian and Bob. Sadly not all those drinking could converse below a bellow. Probably Man U fans and more to be pitted than chastised. The Lion is one of only 2 pubs in the valley and well worth visiting. Well done for keeping music live. Sadly the company owning the premises ditched mine host. Things went rapidly downhill and it closed for several months. Now August 24, open welcoming and doesn't smell of wet dog. Please call in, Blond Witch a must.

Completely personal preference but not my usual place to have a drink but I guess it is popular among the locals.

Nice local pub with decent pool table, darts, and sports channels. Occasional live music too. Just started doing pizzas from Barrel & Stone which are very nice. The staff are always great and the pub is very dog friendly

Was ok. Landlord was a bit stressy. Put me off a bit. Not a great selection of beers. Locals were friendly enough. 2nd visit:- Staff a little friendlier this time. Locals still chatty and friendly. You gained a star for the landlord being absent.

Do not book an experience with this company. Got balloon voucher as a gift and it is impossible to get in contact with anyone to redeem. 🙁 A lot of money to lose.

Would not let me take a pram inside we had to sit outside at the front of the put not even allowed to sit in the back outside. This is discrimination do they do this for wheelchairs also. Will not be visiting again found the experience ridiculous

This is a local pub, run by Bren and Ann, so friendly with great bands playing and all the locals of all ages coming in! And the ales and beers all quality... a rare find! A pool table in the room to the side, beer garden, to have this as a local just down the road where you always know someone and meet new.... a true gem!

It's a traditional pub, and one of the few left in town. Needs a bit of a refresh, but it is what it is, a basic Northern pub!

Although it is rumoured to be closed for redecoration many locals believe it will not re-open as planned. This is a shame as they served consistently good food.

Popped in here as other places busy. Very surprised at both the quality of the breakfast, the flexibility with substitutions (I swapped tomatoes for fried bread) and the value. One really nice touch was to be offered marmalade or jam for my leftover toast. Food was piping hot, cooked well and high quality. Can’t fault this place. I’ll be back.
