Run by a top Irish landlord and his family.
Proper topnotch Guinness served here no less and at least one or two well-kept guest cask ales along with a massive range of whiskies (Scottish, Irish, Welsh, blended, and others)
The food is amazing. (I've always gone for home made Steak and ale pie with either mash or chips and fresh veg with gravy.)
It's really good value, and they serve large portions. Keeps you full all day for sure. All fresh and homemade, it seems and tastes like a lot of care has gone into making it to, and they are proud to serve you (the food and drinks).
Always get a nice warm welcome, and the locals all seem friendly. However, this is a quiet, relaxed place most times I've been in, which is a welcome change. Although I imagine a fun and buzzing atmosphere for a big horse race or football match being shown.
Bar snacks also served, of course, including Black Country pork scratchings.
Will always return here when possible. Hidden gem. Long live the Black Lion.
Prices can be bit low though!
