The Red Lion

The Red Lion is the most common pub name in Britain, so Chester just has to have one. This one was built around 1600, and is in Northgate St (where once there were recorded 36 establishments selling ale). It had a brief flirtation a few years ago with being an Irish pub, but has now been bought and refurbished by Nicholsons, and seems to be looking up.
