A VERY WARM WELCOME AT THE RED LION, PRESTON

The pub is the heart of Preston’s community and stands proudly as the first example of a community-owned public house anywhere in the UK, having been bought from Whitbreads in the early 1980’s. Find out more.

The Red Lion still thrives today as a successful community enterprise over 35 years after the venture was originally started; an accomplishment we are all very proud of. We are supported by wonderful patrons from within the village but have loyal and regular customers from much further afield who appreciate what a real country pub can offer.

Come along and see for yourself.

COVID-19 Update

The Red Lion is open for business…..

The Red Lion continues to offer our deliciously fresh, home-cooked menu and ever changing range of delightful award winning real ales and wines.

We will be continuing to provide take-away food and beer too due to the success of this over previous lock-down months.

We will of course be maintaining social distance guidelines and strict protocols including latest Government announcements . Therefore, we will be closing at 10pm and last orders called at 9.30pm.

We will offer table service only so please call us to reserve a table on 01462 459585.

We would also urge customers to download the NHS Track & Trace App to sign in which is very easy and efficient or ask the team to take down your name and number.
