The Red Lion, in Bradley, Staffordshire — acquired by Davenports earlier this year — was officially re-opened at a drinks reception on Thursday.
The newest addition to Davenports’ portfolio, The Red Lion boasts a rich history that dates to the 17th century. It is part of the company’s Boutique Collection of pubs.
The Red Lion will serve up all the great classics that one would expect from a quintessential British pub, which will sit alongside an elevated offering boasting fresh, locally-sourced, seasonal ingredients. These are accompanied by ales, wines, spirits, and cocktails.
Mayor of Stafford, Jenny Barron, toasted the future success of the pub, to a round of applause from guests.
“We are picking up prestigious awards and opening venues in considered locations across our various portfolios, be that My Local, Pub & Kitchens, or Boutique Collection,” said Davenports’ associate marketing director, Katie McPhilimey.
“We focus on what each area needs, and then do our very utmost to deliver it. Making a difference, a positive difference in communities is key.”
