The Weekend Takeover at Red Lion Inn
24th - 26th April
Payday’s landed, and your group chat’s gone from quiet as a mouse to suspiciously pinging nonstop (classic).
Good thing the Weekend Takeover is back! This is where we turn it up a notch. Think buzzing atmospheres, live events, and menus so good they practically drag you to the bar. Oh, and because we like to keep things interesting, there’s also a little something extra you could win on our competition page.
