Ian Mapp left this review about The Red Lion

I received the warmest welcome of 4 pubs in Bromsgrove. And found the comfiest seats.

Marstons house, kind of hidden in plain sight in the high street. I had never previously noticed it.

Single roomer - a portrait of A E Houseman on the bar end. All solo men drinking on a friday afternoon, most on nodding terms.

Two Cask on - Hobgoblin and an old Banks Bitter pump clip, which is Amber. This is £2.40 on weekdays and was in fine condition, even if it is a pale imitation of what the beer used to be.

Classic traditional high street boozer. 3 beers on offer when I called in - Brakspear Gold, 61 Deep and Banks's Bitter. I went for the Gold which was very good. Worth a visit.

Just a quick pint, then I'm off left this review about The Red Lion

Traditional high-street Marston's pub, given a bit of a makeover at some stage but still retaining some character in what is now a 'L'-shaped layout on two sides of the central counter. Busy on a Wednesday evening, with a quiz in full flow. No menus but cobs available. I found five of the six handpumps in operation, dispensing Banks's Bitter (just £2.40), 61 Deep, Old Empire IPA, Ringwood Boon Doggle and Brakspear Oxford Gold.
