Red Lion Inn

Head down Stoke Old Road towards Hartshill and you'll find yourself in the kind of pub that doesn't need to try too hard. The Red Lion is where you go when you want a pint without the performance—no craft beer lists or sourdough boards, just reliable pub fare and a room full of familiar faces. It's the type of place where regulars have their spots and newcomers are made welcome anyway. The ratings speak for themselves; nearly 200 reviews averaging 4.4 stars tells you this place has staying power for a reason.
