On opening...
Saturday 4th July is a No for the Black Lion. My plan is to open Wednesday 15th if all safety measures are in place.
NO TABLE BOOKINGS.
It's time to turn the pub into a pub again, following the guidelines but in the Black Lion way.
Thank you so much for the kind words of support, it has really helped.
Many thanks from Nikki and The Team. Xxx

Our festivals and events are locally and nationally renowned! Unfortunately because of the unprecedented COVID19 pandemic we have been unable to celebrate our usual summer festivals.
But don't panic!

What better way to kick off the end of dry January and begin the new year, with a dark beer festival featuring over 30 stouts, porters and everything dark and glorious? We at The Black Lion are hosting our annual dark beer festival with over 30 beers. In addition to hosting live music entertainment from some of our favourite lively musicians, you'll have the chance to try and array of locally sourced street food to tickle your taste buds and wash down that beer. A festival for the senses! If you're stuck for time or can only get down for one night why not try a flight of 6 thirds of ale for £8 to sample as many delicious beers as possible! Whatever you do, don't miss the chance to come down and have some fun with us!
