The Lion
A proper neighbourhood local on a quiet corner off the High Street, with a Tuesday quiz and pie night on Wednesdays.
Tucked away on Wick Road, where it meets School House Lane, the Lion is the kind of pub a neighbourhood builds its week around. The food is fresh and locally sourced, and the calendar does the rest: a quiz every Tuesday evening, handmade pies every Wednesday, and a roast to share on Sundays.
On the last Sunday of each month a jazz trio plays in the afternoon, and there’s a steady run of extras, from a whisky club with tutored tastings to family parties. It calls itself the cornerstone of the community, which is a bold claim for a pub, but on a quiz night it’s easy to believe.
