About The Red Lion Chipping Norton
The Red Lion dates back to 1684 and is the smallest pub in Chipping Norton. The tenants, Mick and Sheila want to keep the place as a proper pub, offering great Hooky beer, great company and good conversation.
"We are an ideal pub for people from the town or visitors to the area who want to experience a proper local"
There's no jukebox, fruit machines or video games. With a roaring fire in winter and a beer garden in the summer the Red Lion also offers free wifi and newspapers.
Pub lunches will be available from late spring. The Pub has teams in the local darts, dominoes, crib and Aunt Sally leagues.
Over the years the Red Lion has raised funds for the Lawrence Home Nursing Team and Katharine House Hospice.
It is well know for the giant vegetable competition which this year will be held on Sunday 11th September 2011. Many more fund raising events are also being planned.
