The Black Lion, Salford

Newly refurbished pub owned by the same people as the award winning New Oxford just up the road. 8 handpumps serving Phoenix Black Lion bitter and Jennings Cumberland, the house beers, all the others are changing guests. I had two beers from Empire Brewery, Albion and Red Line the other half had two halves of the Black Lion. All were excellent. Decor wise it’s all very smart, but it doesn’t really look like it’s finished yet as several of the walls are bare. It will certainly be added to our Salford crawl along with The Crescent, New Oxford and Kings Arms.
