Detail for Red Lion (closed) : Bar/Pub / English

A classic English pub offering a decent selection of tap beer and grub. The main bar is located downstairs, and smaller bar is located on the second floor. Poetry readings are held on Monday nights. - sys, 02/27/2000

I have very fond memories of my many visits to the Red Lion, around 1987. Fine friends like John Cordwell, who created this pub, and his son Colin. Good English beer and cheer, plus hilarious conversations when I explained the fine points of cricket to my amazed American friends at the bar. Is my cricket ball gift still exhibited? I hope they remember me - I have lived in France since 1990. I am delighted to find the Red Lion items through Google today (8 October 2006) and that this fine pub is still thriving. I'd like to hear from you! E-mail: Braynordk@aol.com - Ken W, 10/08/2006

Great fish n' chips! One of the best in the city! - Nicole Yaniz, 03/07/2005

This place is fantastic! One of my favorite bars in Chicago. Great atmosphere, friendly people and the outdoor patio is great! Sure there is an older crowd, but



sometimes it's a nice change from college bars with 50 TVs blaring every sport on the planet. - Dave, 12/03/2002
