A historic beer-house, The Red Lion near Piccadilly Circus remains ostensibly unchanged since the early 1900s. There's been a pub on the site since 1788 and, having survived the Blitz, the current building is a step back in time to an ornate Victorian gin palace.

Nothing works up an appetite quite like a day's shopping so if you're looking for somewhere to have a relaxing drink and some great English pub food near Regent Street or Piccadilly, The Red Lion is perfect.

The summer brings with it the joy of after work drinks, and the Red Lion is the perfect spot to join in with some street side socialising.
