About This Pub

Oh, let me tell you about The Lion Sports Bar & Grill – it's one of those places that just feels right from the moment you walk in. The food is spot on; I've heard from mates who've raved about the parmo and burgers, and from what I've seen, it's all about hearty, delicious meals that don't skimp on flavour. It's refreshing to find somewhere that's not overpriced, so you can enjoy a proper feed without worrying about the bill. The staff really make it shine too – they're always up for a chat and ensure everything runs smoothly, which adds to that cosy, welcoming feel. It's ideal for catching up with friends over a drink or a meal, and the overall buzz makes it a go-to for a laid-back night. On the downside, it's a pity there's no website to quickly look up the latest details, and the opening hours can look a bit muddled, so you might need to give them a ring first. All in all, it's a solid spot with more ups than downs, and I'd definitely recommend giving it a try for a proper pub experience.

Had a standard parmo here a few years ago and it was absolutely amazing, had a hot shot tonight and it was even better. Absolutely amazing food without the ridiculously overpriced trendy restaurants costs. 5/5

Popped in for BBQ Week specials! Served quickly at the bar and found a quiet table easily! Food was pretty quick and was absolutely gorgeous! Got myself the 'Dirty Pig Burger'. Partner got a Parmo. Staff were lovely and checked on us to make sure everything was okay with our food.
