The Red Lion

Chicken & Grill No. 9; an inspiring pub, and a former hotel and banqueting suite, in a historic location that’s been with McMullen since 1934. Located a short stroll from the grounds of Hatfield House where history states that news of Queen Mary’s death on 17th of November 1558 reached Elizabeth, where she was said to be out in the park, sitting under an oak tree. Upon hearing that she was Queen, legend has it that Elizabeth quoted the 118th Psalm’s twenty-third line, in Latin: “A Dominum factum est illud, et est mirabile in oculis notris” (“It is the Lord’s doing, and it is marvellous in our eyes.”) Our fayre offer includes freshly spit-roasted chicken, fabulous ice cream sundaes, locally brewed beers, cocktails and your favourite wines – all to be enjoyed in our spacious bar or restaurant or alfresco in our garden when the sun is shining. Breakfast is served on Saturdays and Sundays from 10-11.30am & our event space is ideal for groups, meetings, or privacy.
