New patio ready to open at the Lion

Check our Twitter and Facebook feeds to see the excellent progress the lads have made on the patio refurbishment this week. Local builders RMS from Basford have been on the case and they have made a fine job rebuilding our outside area......even the famous giant step has gone.......so no more spilt drinks or worse!!!...............with a bit of luck and if the weather just holds we should be open by late afternoon today...............a little bit more decoration to complete and the new signs are booked in for fixing on 7th July...................next up are the gents toilets and we have a plan for them.............

Ringwood Brewery have proven extremely popular beers as our brewer of the month.......they will move aside and July sees Black Iris Brewery from Derby take centre stage..........based at the Flower Pot, a well know cask and live music venue they are a well established micro with a reputation for strong ales.......they travel well and can often be found in and around Sheffield and Chesterfield.

Rock n Roll Burgers are still flying out and attracting custom from far and wide.........The Lion was the first but you can now find them at the Rutland in Chesterfield and Keyworth Tavern, Keyworth.........next venue will be Hayloft in Giltbrook, where Blue Monkey Beers will have a permanent position from next week.

Top live entertainment this weekend. Old friends Navacross tonight and our Neil Young tribute, Rust for Glory on Saturday

see you tonight
John Josie and the team
