The Black Lion

You'll find The Black Lion exactly where it's always been on Bridge Street, the kind of pub that doesn't need to shout about itself. Walk in and you'll clock the mix immediately—regulars propping up the bar alongside people who've ducked out of work early, groups clustered round tables with pints that appear without asking. It's got that lived-in feel, the sort of place where the landlord knows what you're having before you order. The sort of pub, frankly, that Hereford does better than most towns manage.
