The Red Lion Cradley

About the Company

About this employer

Steve and Viki and operate the Red Lion in Cradley. After a brief stint in East Sussex and 20 years living and working in Crete in Greece, originally running a bar, they opened a snack bar and subsequently rented a closed aparthotel, turning it into a succesful business. So succesful that they founded a holiday company to handle the guests that we could not accommodate at the hotel.

They came back to the UK and arrived at the Red Lion on 17th of June 2017, to find a closed pub showing little sign of care or attention. Their vision was to restore the pub as a community asset and a place for people to enjoy good company, good beer and good food. They have now agreed a 5 year agreement and invested in a full and extensive refurbishment to further establish the Red Lion and to consolidate its position in the area. They use our experiences and knowledge of Greek cuisine to offer speciality Greek and Mediterranean options on their evening menu
