Red Lion

The Red Lion is a listed pub in the Hockley area featuring traditional British pub design with exposed brickwork, substantial timber beams, and multiple levels with separate dining zones. The interior flows across different floors, with each level offering its own distinct character and layout.

The building was designed by James and Lister Lea in the early 1900s as part of Birmingham's development of public houses. It received listed status to protect its architectural character from that era.

The pub serves as a gathering place for locals who come together for meals and drinks in a social setting. It reflects how Birmingham's public houses adapted their offerings to meet the tastes of the communities they serve.

The pub sits near Birmingham's city center with straightforward access from surrounding streets. Parking is available nearby, making it convenient to reach by car or foot.

The building blends Victorian architectural elements with Indian cuisine prepared by chefs trained in India's premier restaurants. This combination shows how traditional British spaces adapt to the tastes of their modern visitors.
