Cheshire Pub Co has taken over Hartford's Red Lion pub on Chester Road, with possession completed on Monday, 19 October. The firm operates a string of other pubs across the county, including the Shady Oak on the canal at Beeston and the Space Invader in Goostrey. The team plans to reopen the pub around the first week of December, though an official reopening date will be announced as the project progresses.
Chris Jennings of Cheshire Pub Co said the plan centres on 'a proper village pub offering', including 'good food, well-kept beer, a good glass of wine, and a warm welcome for every generation'. He added: 'We want to be somewhere people can meet friends, bring the family for a meal, or simply call in for a pint.'
The previous landlady, Cathy, retains ownership of the building. Jennings acknowledged the contribution she, her late husband Julio, and their family have made to Hartford over the past 30 years. He said Cheshire Pub Co was grateful for her trust and wanted to build on the pub's long-standing connection with the village.
